Wireless system engineers often want to use a software-defined radio (SDR) prototype to verify and optimize system architecture, baseband signal processing algorithms, and system control protocols before first silicon implementation. In some cases, the SDR prototype can be the final product.
Read this application note to learn how to convert Simulink® system models to SDR/FPGA implementations. A Simulink model is used to create an SDR wireless network prototype and measure the real network throughputs with over-the-air testing.
