{{{#!comment [[Include(wiki:802.11/beta-note)]] }}} [[TracNav(802.11/TOC)]] = 802.11 Reference Design for WARP v3 = The Mango Communications 802.11 Reference Design is a real-time FPGA implementation of the IEEE 802.11 OFDM PHY and DCF MAC for [http://mangocomm.com/products/kits/warp-v3-kit Mango WARP v3 hardware]. The base Reference Design can interact with commercial 802.11 devices, acting as an access point (AP), client (STA) or ad-hoc node (IBSS). Researchers can modify the design to explore extensions and improvements to the standard MAC and PHY and test their extensions in networks of real 802.11 devices. Refer to the [wiki:./Architecture architecture] page of this user guide for an overview of how the PHY, MAC and other code are integrated in the Reference Design. The [wiki:./PHY PHY] and [wiki:./MAC MAC] pages provide additional details on what features are implemented in the current design. The source code and models are available for use at no cost on Mango WARP v3 hardware under the [wiki:./License Mango Reference Design License]. Technical support for WARP v3 users is provided via the [//forums forums]. For any questions about using the 802.11 Reference Design on third-party hardware or for other licensing questions, contact [http://mangocomm.com/contact Mango Communications].
