Abstract

This paper proposes the case study of the design space exploration using SystemC. The platform based design with BUS based communication architecture is used as designing approach. IEEE 802.11n system is used as case application. Transaction level modeling(TLM) of the platform is generated using SystemC. Various architectural options - CPU and BUS clock speed, memory response time, memory size -- are evaluated by the application specific performance metrics. The architecture is verified by the real-time constraint of IEEE 802.11n. Further evaluation of architecture is performed with the additional performance metrics in terms of the average and instantaneous throughput of uplink traffic.
