LE-WARP: Linux enriched design for wireless open-access research platform

Published: 26 October 2011 Publication History

Abstract

Linux Enriched (LE) - WARP is a programmable radio platform that can be configured to build experimental and recon-figurable wireless networks. Through LE-WARP design, we introduce a system level modification to WARP. Achieved end result is a software enhanced WARP SW/HW design called LE-WARP. It enables adaptation across various layers of communication protocol like network, transport and application layers along with the already supported flexibility at physical and MAC layers on WARP. This paper provides the technical details of the modifications made in terms of software, system architecture and performance comparison between the default OFDM reference design and the LE-WARP design on WARP.
