5th IEEE Symposium on FPGA-Based Custom Computing Machines (FCCM '97) A wireless LAN demodulator in a Pamette: design and experience Napa Valley, CA April 16-April 18 ISBN: 0-8186-8159-4
We have implemented the digital section of a wireless local area network (WLAN) demodulator in a reconfigurable interface card called the PCI Pamette. The entire baseband section of the demodulator has been implemented using the Pamette and a simple analog to digital mezzanine board. This is the second version of the demodulator, the first being a card-based design using a mixture of discrete and reconfigurable logic. The Pamette design took far less time to complete than the card-based one. Moreover, the reconfigurable substrate is much more versatile. We describe the Pamette implementation and discuss our experiences with the two different design styles and technologies.
