Collection of news and views about all things related to 802.11, Wireless LANs.
Marvell’s TopDog claims to be the industry's first compliant 802.11n wireless LAN (WLAN) chip solution. The TopDog product is said to deliver data rates between 300- to 600-Mbps and Ethernet connectivity from 100-Mbps to 1-Gbps.
Ittiam 802.11b Wireless LAN offering includes complete model of the system, a Synthesizable Core for the 802.11b PHY, 802.11 MAC software and a complete reference board on which the entire IP is demonstrated in real time. It is designed to work with commercial off-the-shelf RF chipsets.
The 802.11b baseband is available as a synthesizable HDL (Hardware Description Language) core, in both Verilog and VHDL. It has a benchmark gate count, highly competitive PER (Packet Error Rate) performance and includes advanced signal processing algorithms for synchronization, channel estimation and equalization.
The 802.11 MAC is designed for 802.11b/a/g and operates both in Access Point and Station Card mode. The implementation of the MAC is an optimal partition between hardware and software. The aim is to ensure low MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second) and easy portability.
