VLSI architecture for OFDM baseband transceiver is developed, which is dedicated to cognitive radio systems. To facilitate dynamic spectrum access, this transceiver architecture employs a specialized FFT/IFFT module and a mapping/demapping module. Efficient mechanisms to omit input/ output of unused subcarriers are introduced. Also, calculation of spectrum intensity for subcarrier level carrier sensing is successfully integrated to the FFT module. Whole transmitter/ receiver modules are implemented by keeping compatibility with IEEE 802.11g. A prototype system is constructed by using Xilinx Virtex-II FPGA, which can transmit video sequence in real time.
