Dynamically Reconfigurable Computing for Wireless Communication Systems (Dynamisch rekonfigurierbares Rechnen für Mobilfunksysteme)

In this paper we will demonstrate that dynamically reconfigurable computing is the key technology to enable small and energy-efficient hardware platforms for wireless communication systems, which provide the flexibility needed for keeping up with evolving standards and protocols. Two application-specific dynamically reconfigurable systems for WLANs and wireless sensor networks will be presented. The first architecture clearly shows that highly...
