Abstract :
This paper presents the design and implementation of a software defined radio for the physical layer implementation of WiMAX using LabVIEW on NI PCI-5640R card which features a Xilinx Virtex-II FPGA. This work focuses on two important aspects of communications, WiMAX standard and the OFDM technique. The results show successful operation of the software, that uses part of the algorithm on a PC and part on the FPGA board.
