Abstract :
This paper proposes a high-level architecture exploration methodology for real-time application, which is IEEE 802.11n. Both MAC and PHY are considered to be implemented in BUS based multi-processor SoC platform. DCF with frame aggregation is applied as operational case. Transaction level model of the total system is generated using SystemC in order to evaluate the real-time constraint and the system performance by different configurations.
