# bladeRF-wiphy

bladeRF-wiphy is an open-source IEEE 802.11 compatible software defined radio VHDL modem



## What is the bladeRF-wiphy project?

The bladeRF-wiphy project is an open-source IEEE 802.11 compatible software defined radio VHDL modem. The modem is able to modulate and demodulate 802.11 packets (the protocol WiFi is based on), and run directly on the bladeRF 2.0 micro xA9’s FPGA.

The bladeRF-wiphy coupled with Linux mac80211 allows the [bladeRF 2.0 micro xA9](https://www.nuand.com/product/bladerf-xA9/) to become a software defined radio 802.11 access point! 802.11 packets (PDUs) are modulated and demodulated directly on the FPGA, so only 802.11 packets are transferred between the FPGA and libbladeRF.
