Abstract :
This paper presents an approach for the design of complex hardware applications using a system level design technique based on ImpulseC design language. ImpulseC is an industry standard language that offers a full design environment of mixed hardware/software systems. The goal of this paper is to evaluate the applicability of ImpulseC design environment for the design of the physical layer of modern wireless communication protocols.
