Case Study on Transaction Level Modeling of NoC based IEEE 802.11n

Abstract

In this paper, we design IEEE 802.11n WLAN receiver with the MIMO-OFDM technology based on network on chip platform. The transaction level analysis of IEEE 802.11n is performed and SW/HW partitioning is performed in terms of real-time requirement of system. Then SW and HW cores are mapped to NoC architecture. System performance of NoC is compared to bus architecture
