Abstract

In his paper, embedded system implementation for IEEE802.l1p based OFDM-DSRC is presented. After the IEEE802.11p physical layer specification is introduced and BER performance of the modem is evaluated by simulation, implementation aspects of the system such as system architecture, design method and implementation results are addressed. Implemented embedded system for the OFDM-DSRC communication consists of FPGA, flash memory, ARM9 CPU Core, peripherals, etc. from the results, it is shown that the implemented system operates well according to IEEE802.11p specification. It is expected that implemented embedded system shall be used for wireless communication system such as ITS application by enhancing system optimizing.

본 논문은 IEEE802.11p 기반의 OFDM-DSRC 통신을 위한 임베디드 시스템의 구현에 대 한 것이다. IEEE802.11p 표준의 물리계층 규격에 대해 먼저 설명하고, 규격에 따른 모뎀의 BER 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 평가하고, 본 논문에서 구현한 시스템 구조와 설계방식, 구현 결과에 대해 설명한다. OFDM-DSRC 통신을 위해 구현한 임베디드 시스템은 FPGA, 플래쉬 메모리, ARM9 CPU 및 기타 주변장치들로 구성하였다. 구현 결과로부터, 본 논문에서 구현한 IEEE802.l1p를 따르는 OFDM-DSRC 시스템이 정상적으로 동작함을 확인하였다. 구현한 IEEE802.11p에 따른 임베디드 시스템에 대한 최적화를 통해 ITS와 같은 무선 통신 응용 시스템에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.
