WARPLab Releases

Latest WARPLab Release

• WARPLab Version 5.1 is the latest WARPLab release and includes support for the Virtex-4 FPGA Board.

• Notes for v5.1
  • Posted November 2009.
  • Builds upon the features of Version 5
  • Support for both Version 1 and 2 of the FPGA Board
  • Single C-code base for both the 2x2 and 4x4 Reference Designs
  • Interoperable across both versions of the FPGA Boards
• Notes for v5.0
  • Posted September 2009
  • Includes Automatic Gain Control (AGC). Previous versions of WARPLab required Manual Gain Control (MGC), the user was required to set receiver gains manually. Now AGC or MGC can be selected by M-code functions.
  • RSSI data read is supported by the 2x2 MIMO bitstream but not by the 4x4 MIMO bitstream
  • Continuous transmission mode is supported by both the 2x2 and 4x4 bitstreams

• WARPLab Version 5.1 code is available in the links below.
  • Reference M-Code Version 5.1.
  • 2x2 MIMO bitstream for FPGA Version 1.
  • 4x4 MIMO bitstream for FPGA Version 1.
  • 2x2 MIMO bitstream for FPGA Version 2.
  • 4x4 MIMO bitstream for FPGA Version 2.
  • M-Code examples that work with version 5.1 of the Reference M code.
  • The XPS Reference Designs used to generate the 2x2 and 4x4 MIMO bitstreams that work with Version 5.1 of the Reference M-Code are available here?.
