GSM wireless reference design

Technische Daten

  • Perform call set-up and loopback between two GSM mobiles
    – Optionally, voice can be decoded and output locally (or to network)
  • Implements ETSI GSM recommandations
    – Most voice-call related layer 1 and 2 messages and primitives
    – Subset of layer 3 Call Control messages
  • Allows BTS emulation and basic call establishment
  • Targeted at Lyrtech SFF SDR DP
    – Based on TI DM6446 SOC DSP (ARM9 + C64x DSP) and Virtex 4 FPGA
    – Retargetable C-Code for protocol layers
  • Code is non-OS specific
  • Code runs on DSP or can easlily be splitted between DSP and GPP
  • Uses 64xx assembly-coded Lyrtech GSM voice coding libraries
    – FPGA designed using Model-Based Design
  • Allows system simulation and verification
  • Can be easily retargeted at other FPGAs
    – SFF SDR platform is RF/IF/Baseband modularized, so it can be retargeted to
    customer specific technologies for IF and RF sections
  • Applications:
    – Pico base stations
    – GSM monitoring systems
    – Advanced reprogrammable multimode/SDR handhelds
    – GSM-based sensors
