HARDWARE IMPLEMENTATION OFWI-FI 802.11 PROTOCOL IN 2.4/5 GHZ USING SOFTWARE DEFINED RADIO

Abstract

In this Report, we discuss Hardware Implementation of Wi-Fi 802.11 Protocol in 2.4/5 GHz Using Software Defined Radio. Using SDR, we can explore the complexity of Wi-Fi communications from the physical layer to the upper layers of the protocol stack. The combination of SDR and the 802.11 protocol opens up new opportunities for innovation, providing a versatile and adaptable environment for experimenting with Wi-Fi technologies. The core of the report focuses on the practical aspects of implementing the 802.11 protocol on SDR hardware, including the selection of appropriate SDR platforms, the design and integration of software components, and the challenges encountered during the development process.
