Gain hands-on experience with integrated NI hardware and software by prototyping a real-time wireless system featuring the LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite and the USRP reconfigurable I/O (RIO) FPGA-based software defined radio (SDR). Design, simulate, and prototype an LTE-based real-time OFDM link on a high-performance FPGA and transmit data over the air using the link you design on the USRP RIO SDR. This session covers the most important aspects of the idea-to-prototype flow in a single tool, including floating-point simulation, floating-point to fixed-point conversion, performance-complexity trade-offs, and, finally, verification and test on an FPGA-based SDR.
