Abstract :
It is expected that software defined radio (SDR) technology that can access multiple wireless communication systems will be applied to mobile terminals and base stations as a beyond 3G wireless system. An SDR wideband mobile terminal must be capable of high-speed data processing and low power consumption. To evaluate the performance of reconfigurable processors for SDR wideband mobile terminals, we developed software that runs on a reconfigurable processor for the IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN baseband part, and evaluated the performance of the reconfigurable processor. Moreover, we describe the system design of the new SDR base station, which uses autonomous adaptive control technology. We evaluated the characteristic performance through computer simulations, and confirmed its efficiency
