    66=== Tools and Hardware Requirements === #Tools
    7 The MIMO OFDM core is designed using [http://www.xilinx.com/ise/optional_prod/system_generator.htm Xilinx's System Generator]. MATLAB 7.1 SP3 with Simulink, Xilinx ISE and System Generator are required to use the model. See [wiki:FAQ/General#WhatsoftwaretoolsarerequiredtouseWARP our FAQ] for more information on which Xilinx tools are required to use WARP.
     7The MIMO OFDM core is designed using [http://www.xilinx.com/ise/optional_prod/system_generator.htm Xilinx's System Generator]. The current version of the core is compatible with System Generator 8.2.02 and 9.1.01. See [wiki:FAQ/General#WhatsoftwaretoolsarerequiredtouseWARP our FAQ] for more information on which Xilinx tools are required to use WARP.

    99==== Simulation ====
    10 The OFDM model can be used in simulation with just the tools listed above.
     10The OFDM model can be used in the MATLAB/Simulink simulation environment using just System Generator.

    1212==== Hardware ====
    13 In order to use the OFDM core in hardware, the model must be converted to an OPB-compliant peripheral. We provide a version of this core already converted to a peripheral in the repository ([source:/PlatformSupport/CustomPeripherals/pcores/ofdm_TxRx_mimo_opbw_v1_07_a]). This is the version of the core we use at Rice in hardware. In order to use the OPB-version of the core, you will also need the [http://www.xilinx.com/ise/embedded_design_prod/platform_studio.htm Xilinx Embedded Devleopment Kit].
     13In order to use the OFDM core in hardware, the model must be converted to an OPB-compliant peripheral. We use the WARP [wiki:sysgen2opb sysgen2opb] peripheral generation flow to convert the OFDM model into an OPB pcore. In order to use the OPB-version of the core, you will also need the [http://www.xilinx.com/ise/embedded_design_prod/platform_studio.htm Xilinx Embedded Devleopment Kit].

    1919  Simulink/System Generator model for the full MIMO OFDM transceiver. This model is ready to simulate both the full transmit and receive chains. The scripts below are required to use this model. The OPB-compliant peripheral core is generated from this model using [wiki:sysgen2opb sysgen2opb].

    3333[source:/ResearchApps/PHY/MIMO_OFDM/calcTxCRC.m calcTxCRC.m]
    3434  MATLAB function which calculates the 32-bit CRC of a packet. This is used for simulation purposes only; the model implements both Tx and Rx CRC calculation in hardware.
