[Konstantinos Banitsas]

it doesn't seem to run!

[Ayman Naguib]

I have all the required toolboxes (Communications,Communications Blockset,DSP Blockset,Signal Processing,Simulink) but it
I get an error message saying invalid stateflow license and does not run

[li peng]

Unable to open model file 'dspsigops.mdl'
help me!
what and where is it??

[Pepe Viyuela]

I could run it. With Matlab 6.5. And it is great.

[beatriz romero]

i downloaded the model of 802.11a and i tried to open it (i tried to
open ieee802.11a_noSF.mdl) in my pc and i couldn't.
it seems to be empty but i know it isn't becase its size is aproximatly 256KB.
i am very interestig in that model and i would like to open it.
please i'd be very grateful if you could help me,
thaks in advance,

[Yongtao Wang]

IEEE802.11a_noSF.mdl worked fine. But IEEE802.11a.mdl did not work. There was an erros message "make: fopen: IEEE80211a_sfun.mku: No such file or directory". Also, seems to me there are many things hidden in the model. Can someone provide a short tutorial so that it would become more understandable?

[Phang Kok Hong]

I am interested in observing the performance of the system.I downloaded the file,unzipped it and set the directory path the folder, but I could not open the IEEE802.11a_noSF.mdl file. I am using MATLAB 6.1. I am not sure whether is it because of the MATLAB version that I am using now?? Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

[John Oliver]

Runs for me just fine.

One question, is the convolutional encoder/decoder hidden? I dont see it anywhere.

[Jessie Li]

IEEE802.11a worked fine.I have a question .The input data which send to zero pad in modulator is 4320*1,but the output of the zero pad is 960*1,that means truncation uccured and some of the input data are abandoned. Isn't right? If yes,how can it calculate the PER correctly?

[li peng]

I am interested in observing the performance of the system.I downloaded the file,unzipped it and set the directory path the folder, but I could not open the IEEE802.11a_noSF.mdl file.system says:Warning: Simulink<-->Stateflow inconsistency found, attempting repair...
Repair completed.

I am running Matlab 7.0 and am having trouble with the IEEE802.11a_NoSF model. The following error is thrown. I looked at the Doppler filter block and was unable to locate the parameter. Can anyone help me fix this problem?

Error in 'IEEE80211a_NoSF/Multipath channel/Multipath Rayleigh Fading Channel1/Multipath Fading Channel/Fading Profile/Triggered Rayleigh Profile/Doppler Filter': Initialization commands cannot be evaluated. MATLAB error message: Invalid setting in Digital Filter block (mask) 'Doppler Filter' for parameter 'MaskEnables'.

Thanks

i'cant run ths program, I have a problem with a Filter....and this is: Error in 'IEEE80211a/Multipath channel/Multipath Rayleigh Fading Channel1/Multipath Fading Channel/Fading Profile/Triggered Rayleigh Profile/Doppler Filter': Initialization commands cannot be evaluated. MATLAB error message: Error using ==> get_param

Please help me

[Keith Chetcuti]

Very good model. It is helping me alot to get a grip of the 802.11a standard. I would be very grateful if you can send me the documentation files so that I can understand your project.My objective is to change the multipath model with another model which I have already in hand.

[francisco aquino]

ok

[Bernd St]

I think it's a very good model. Unfortunately I have the same error as Felipe (posted 2008-04-30) with the Doppler-Filter. Do you have a solution for that. Anotherpleasure to you: Can you sent me the documentation too, to understand the project.

thx,
Bernd

[Felipe Vergara]

Bernd St ([e-mail])

yes, did solve it, you have to slect in matlab current directory and put where are the directory of R13SP1, aftes that, open Simulink and clik in open a model, and choose the IEEE80211a.mdl, and Run.... that's all, bye.

[shahzad bhatti]

Please send me its documentation. Its a very good and detailed model.

[Ebong Udom]

I ran the model, and i have to say that it's a good.But is it possible to get the documentation for the model.I'll really appreciate it.

Thanks.

[Julius Kusuma]

Very nice work, but its utility for learning is crippled by lack of any documentation whatsoever.

[Erika Salaz]

Hello,

I would like to know if the module OFDM for IEEE80211a works for standar DVB-T or what is the difference?? Thanks

Hello,
 I'm traying to change the multipath fading channel for the Hiperlan/2 channel models, but when I configurate the multipath block for that model, I don't get an appropiate BER and PER. Do you know what could be the problem? I've tried with just 6 taps instead the 18 taps defined for Hiperlan/2 channel models and changing the equalizer, but it doesn't work. Thanks in advance.

[Veronika Shivaldova]

Is anybody able to run model on R2009a?

[Georgios Psomadellis]

Please Could anyone explain me how the OFDM Symbol has duration 4μsec and which is the parameter that could saw this?
