includes, from day one, both the downlink and the uplink processing chains covering all

the PHY steps such as FEC, modulation, MIMO processing, resource mapping and

OFDMA. Thanks to that, baseband models of both the Base Station (BS) and also the

Mobile Station (MS), can be easily created. High detail of functional blocks'

great flexibility in customized

WiMAX PHY Lab is a comprehensive implementation of the mobile WiMAX physical

layer. It has a form of a Matlab Toolbox for its great flexibility in applications such as

modeling and simulation of the communication systems. WiMAX PHY Lab can be used

at all stages of the WiMAX software, hardware and IPR development, from research,

prototyping and implementation, up to system benchmarking, verification and testing.

WirelessMAN-OFDMA PHY Layer

Downlink and uplink support available from day one

TDD duplexing, FDD – available on request

Support for MIMO (2 antennas: Tx diversity, Spatial Multiplexing,

Collaborative UL MIMO) and OFDMA

Flexible control of all the necessary parameters

Support for all the WiMAX bandwidths: 3.5MHz, 5MHz, 7MHz, 8.75MHz,

10MHz, 20MHz

Channel models included (AWGN, SUI)

Test files included

The WiMAX PHY Lab functions are easily and broadly parametrizable, and external sources of information can be used to drive the created models (for example to fill out the user plane data). In addition, plenty of examples on how to use the functions are provided, together with the test files and representative channel models.

Some available plots from the operation of the WiMAX PHY Lab are presented in the figures 2-4.
