5 | | We have designed a highly '''capable''', '''scalable''' and '''extensible''' platform for advanced |
6 | | wireless research. The design elements which provide these features are integrated into a complete platform, providing |
7 | | the tools and resources required for research and development at all levels of wireless systems. This |
8 | | integration enables researchers to focus on improving one aspect of a wireless system without having |
9 | | to implement, or even understand, everything required to enable real-world communications. All |
10 | | aspects of the platform, including the custom hardware designs, platform support packages and |
11 | | implementations of research applications, will be available in an open-access repository. This |
12 | | repository is available to and welcomes contributions from all users of the platform in hope of establishing an active resource for collaboration in high performance wireless research. |
