An Fpga-based Zigbee Receiver on the Harris Software Defined Radio Sip
نویسندگان
چکیده
A software defined ZigBee receiver has been designed, implemented and tested with a commercially available offthe-shelf ZigBee transceiver. This system is based on the software defined system-in-package (SIP) platform by Harris Corporation (Melbourne, Florida, USA). This platform is equipped with a high-resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and four Xilinx Virtex-4 FPGAs. An alldigital phase-locked loop (PLL) and ZigBee demodulator have been created to operate inside the FPGAs. The ZigBee medium access control layer is also implemented inside an FPGA to allow the system to recover the commercial ZigBee signals. A simple RF front-end is composed of commercially available off-the-shelf components chosen for this system. This work permits a large portion of the RF and IF hardware chain, as well as the physical layer and medium access control layer, to be reconfigured inside the FPGAs. A streaming video source emanating from the XBee ZigBee transceiver is demonstrated on the SIP in real time.

Maximum likelihood carrier phase synchronization in FPGA-based software defined radios
Digital signal processing techniques are applied to maximum likelihood carrier phase synchronization for QPSK and QAM in an all-digital sampled data receiver. To achieve the flexibility required by modern Software Defined Radios (SDR’s), this task must either be performed in a DSP processor (reconfigurable software) or in an FPGA (reconfigurable hardware). This paper describes the design proces...
