    34  * Overview : WARP Hardware and Design Environment  Attendees will learn about the hardware-level capabilities of WARP and the system-level  design flow. A brief presentation will be followed by a lab exercise where attendees will  use the design tools to implement a simple hardware co-processor on the FPGA.

    3737
    38  * Implementation of Physical Layer Protocols  Classical physical layer algorithms such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) will be presented in the context of physical layer design for WARP. Following the  presentation, attendees will use the design tools learned in the previous exercise to   generate base-band waveforms on the FPGA and upconvert them to RF using the WARP  radio boards.

    43  * Implementation of Network Protocols Networking protocols will be discussed in the context of design realization and at-scale   experimentation on WARP. Specifically, the medium access control (MAC) layer will be   the focus. Using WARP's medium access framework, attendees will implement a   simplified ALOHA protocol and demonstrate its capabilities with real-world traffic from   a PC.
