CalRADIO Project Goals Cal-(IT)2 is developing a general broad application radio/networking test platform for the University Jacob’s School of Engineering Research and Development programs. This platform should be of general interest to the wireless community at large and plans call for it to be made generally available to the public on an open basis for Research and Development. A single integrated test platform gives a new dimension to radio design in the future: the capability of publishing standards in software/firmware and hardware. This has the utility of greatly speeding the design, implementation and adoption of new standards.
Development Stages • CalRADIO I – Basic WiFi MAC development platform • Utilize basic Symbol Technologies WiFi Test Board • Modify board and re-spin to incorporate several new features • Make the board available to faculty/students • CalRADIO II – Basic digital radio development • Gather requirements and specifications • Develop basic digital processing board • Build several RF front-end modules • 802.11x • 802.16 • Cell • General RF
