MathWorks has introduced the WLAN System Toolbox, providing standard-compliant functions for the design, simulation, analysis, and testing of wireless LAN communications systems.
The WLAN System Toolbox expands capabilities of MATLAB for wireless development by providing configurable physical layer waveforms for IEEE 802.11ac and 802.11b/a/g/n standards. The system toolbox provides reference designs to enable exploration of baseband specifications, and demodulate and recover signals. Users can also study the effects of RF designs and interference sources on system performance.
WLAN System Toolbox provides MATLAB source code, allowing engineers to customize algorithms and analyses. The toolbox also generates unencrypted, hardware-independent waveforms for simulation and over-the-air testing.
WLAN System Toolbox provides:
· End-to-end system simulation and algorithm development
· A reference for design verification
· Measurement and analysis of system performance
· Over-the-air waveform transmission and reception with software-defined radios and RF instruments
· C-code generation support
