Abstract :
A hardware white Gaussian noise generator (WGNG) is developed in an FPGA circuit for mobile communication channel emulation. High accuracy, fast and low-cost hardware are reached by combining the Box-Muller and central limit methods. The performance of the designed model is investigated using MATLAB. The complexity and the performance level are given for some configurations and show the interest of the proposed model
