—An enhancement to the MB-OFDM system, known as Pulsed-OFDM, has been proposed to reduce the complexity and power consumption of the transceiver without sacrificing performance. In this paper, we describe the detailed FPGA implementation of a complete Pulsed-OFDM transceiver. The resource requirements are given for each of the major blocks for an implementation using a Xilinx VirtexTM -4 device. The entire system can be mapped onto a single FPGA chip. Keywords—Pulsed-OFDM, MB-OFDM, transceiver, FPGA.
