Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.

Definition of an open lens

Any member is allowed to add content to an open lens, even if the lens belongs to someone else. You can think of open lenses as lists of similar works related to the same subject, authored by various collaborating organizations or members. Content added to open lenses is reviewed for approval or deletion from the lens.

Fully Configurable OFDM SDR Transceiver in LabVIEW

Collection Properties

Summary: Our project originally realized an OFDM transmitter on the NI PCI-5640 IF-RIO (intermediate frequency, reconfigurable input/output) transceiver, which contains the Virtex-II Pro Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and the receiver in MATLAB. It was completed in about 8 weeks as a final project for Digital Signal Processing Laboratory (ECE 420) at the University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign. Using the latest LabView software, we were able to create an incredibly flexible OFDM transceiver that could be scaled up or down with ease. This of course is especially exciting given the prospect of cognitive radio, for which OFDM is a heavy favorite scheme of choice. With the ability to scale the number of subcarriers up and down with little impact on the receiver structure, adapting to open spectrum and conditions becomes much easier. The continuation of this project will culminate in a significant educational Connexions (CNX) module collection complete with written and visual tutorials. YouTUBE videos recorded from Camtasia Studio will close the gap between reading about the project and seeing it come together. In the end, the collection will fully detail how to implement a complete OFDM SDR system with transmitter and receiver. The final product will run on a front-end receiver utilizing National Instruments' PXI chassis populated with the 5660 digital downconverter/high-speed digitizer in conjuction with the 5671 AWG/upconverter. The receiver back-end will be purely software-defined and utilize LabVIEW.

My Favorites (?)

'My Favorites' is a special kind of lens which you can use to bookmark modules and collections. 'My Favorites' can only be seen by you, and collections saved in 'My Favorites' can remember the last module you were on. You need an account to use 'My Favorites'.
