WNOCs-LNA Development Feasibility. A study using free software tools and predictive models.
Keywords:
WirelessAbstract
Wireless networks on chips allow solving, among others, the problems associated with the use of wired buses. Current works show that they are also very suitable to achieve characteristics such as performance, reliability and graceful degradation scalability. This work demonstrates the development feasibility of one of the required radio frequency modules, using free tools and models. In particular it is shown that it is possible to meet a set of basic requirements for a wireless network on chip low noise amplifier . It is also shown that the freely available predictive models, allow to extend the operating frequencies and anticipate even more demanding future requirements. As a consequence, these wireless micro networks are emerging as a fundamental building block in the development of future critical systems, such as segmented architectures, driver-less vehicles and autonomous bio-medical equipment.
