Reference Applications

Integrate prebuilt and verified wireless communications transmitter and receiver subsystems into your system design

Implementing LTE or 5G standard-compliant functionality efficiently in hardware requires specialized skills and knowledge. Wireless HDL Toolbox™ provides reference applications, which are fixed-point Simulink® designs with hardware implementations for LTE and 5G subsystems.

These reference applications can be used as-is in your system design to deliver packet information to your unique application and to generate synthesizable VHDL or Verilog with HDL Coder™. They also serve as examples to illustrate best practices for implementing LTE or 5G algorithms on FPGA or ASIC hardware.
