What Is the MIMO Prototyping System?
The MIMO Prototyping System provides hardware and software for running a real-time, over-the-air multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) system without additional code.
Introduction to MIMO System Hardware
Off-the-shelf software defined radio (SDR) hardware can be combined with FPGAs, clocking devices, and PXI to create a MIMO testbed that can scale from 4 to 128 antennas.
