From Wireless Standard to Software Defined Radio: An FPGA implementation of an LTE design
Overview
Learn how to model and simulate the LTE wireless standard, design for real world impairments (timing, carrier, and channel distortion), and implement the design on a Xilinx® Zynq®-based software-defined radio.
Highlights
Modeling wireless communications:
- Hardware implementation of OFDM
- Overview of LTE standard (training sequences, LTE resource grid)
- Using real-world recordings to test your design
- Receiver techniques, such as synchronization, carrier recovery, and equalization
Implementing an LTE application on a software-defined radio:
- Hardware/software co-design
- Targeting Xilinx Zynq devices
