Abstract :
This paper presents a rapid system prototyping platform for error-control codes (e.g. turbo and turbo product), which are to be used for optical CDMA transmission. The platform is based on system generator from Xilinx, a visual design tool based on Matlab/Simulink environment and enables a "push of a button" transition from specification to implementation. Components of the platform (a library of communication modules, debugging and emulation tools), design methodology of the platform and evaluation of some example communication systems are presented.
