Abstract :
In this paper, a time division multiple access (TDMA) baseband design for multi-biosensor nodes to a central processing node communication is proposed. The communication protocol is achieved by introducing the control codes of tag/data type and synchronization reference and the bit error rate (BER) is reduced by using the multiple reading technique. The designed TDMA baseband system is implemented by a FPGA of Altera Cyclon II with burning the designed verilog codes in it. The resulted performances are verified with transmission data rate of 4Mbps based on 64MHz system clock.
