Title: WARP: Wireless Open-Access Research Platform
Authors: Patrick Murphy, J. Patrick Frantz, Ashu Sabharwal, Behnaam Aazhang (Poster II, 9)

ABSTRACT

This poster presents the design of a custom platform for research in advanced wireless algorithms and applications. The platform consists of both custom hardware and FPGA implementations of key communications blocks. The hardware consists of FPGA-based processing boards coupled to wideband radios and other I/O interfaces; the algorithm implementations already include a flexible OFDM physical layer. Both the hardware design and algorithm implementations will be freely available to academic researchers in hopes of developing a widely disseminated, highly capable platform for wireless research.
