wireless module for DSP stratix III

Oct 05, 2011 1 Replies

I am new to the world of Altera and FPGA . Really hope to get some helps from this forum.


Thanks in advance!



My case is: I have MCSOP running in my stratix III DSP board .



The outputs of the processing part of this system are displayed in the screen .



I need the data until a base station from where I will transfer the data to the internet.So how do I transfer (in realtime) the data until the base station from the FPGA with wireless conection ?


Is there a solution to add wireless module to my DSP board and configure with my PC in ad-hoc mode to capture this data ?

What throughput do you need? What range?

There are many different wireless modules. However if you want to connect to standard PC, then you probably need either Bluetooth (you may easily hook it to your FPGA board via USART- like interface, but the throughput is low) or WiFi (it may be quite difficult to connect it to FPGA, unless you have an embedded CPU). To connect standard WiFi card you'll need USB host interface in your FPGA system or you'll need to emulate other bus master (PCMCIA?, PCIe?).

The WiFi module, which may be relatively easily connected to FPGA:
