Radio Drivers
BitWave’s C-code Radio Drivers for the Softransceiver RFIC are designed to be easily portable to any baseband processor
The Radio Drivers include a Radio Applications Programming Interface and standardized function calls for:
- Configuration
- Initial calibration
- Power management
- Operation and timing
- Frequency tuning
- Gain control
- Rx and Tx data flow
At Initialization, the Radio Driver loads the Softransceiver RFIC's firmware:
- Wireless Standard Mode Files - Softransceiver register configuration settings for each of the wireless standards which the RFIC will run
- Finite State Machine code - to manage preceise time accurate control of the Softransceiver RFIC
- 8051 code - to manage on-chip data collection and distribution, as well as self test
- Internal tables - holding factory and startup calibration data, as well as system-specific implementation data
