Abstract
Othogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) has gained considerable attention in recent years. It has been adopted for various standards include the 802.11a wireless LAN standard. In this project, we implemented an OFDM receiver based 802.11a standard. Furthermore, since spatial diversity is the ultimate way to increase system capacity in bandwidth-cautious wireless applications, the SVD antenna-array processing algorithm is also implemented and will be integrated with the OFDM receiver. Key system blocks including Cordic, FFT, Viterbi decoder, and SVD are implemented in both Simulink and Module Compiler. Simulink si
