A Software Defined Radio Platform Implementing a WiFi and ZigBee Receiver

A successful attempt to design and implement a multi-standard compliant Basebnd Processor is here presented. By exploiting the potential of FPGA's reconfigurability, the received signal from RF stage have been processed in order to properly decode frames of IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) and IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) protocols. both falling within the ISM band (centered at 2.45GHz). The experimental implementation carried out is a practical demonstration of the Software Defined Radio concept.
