Abstract :
The paper describes the architecture, design, implementation, and test of a reconfigurable digital baseband processor for an RF-MIMO WLAN transceiver that performs the signal combining in the analogue domain. Description includes baseband algorithms (the main blocks being MIMO channel estimation and Tx-Rx analog beamforming), their FPGA-based implementation, a baseband PCB, and real-time tests.
