[Make-wifi-fast] [OpenWrt-Devel] openwifi: Open source Wi-Fi “chip” on zynq FPGA with Linux mac80211 on ARM

[Xianjun Jiao (UGent-imec)]

The RX PHY already support 802.11n MCS 0~7.

we still need to do some work at TX and driver to turn the 802.11n ON.

Dear openwrt friends,

A message may interest you. Our openwifi project is online:

https://github.com/open-sdr/openwifi

you guys just cheered me up, a LOT.

What will it take to get as far as 802.11n? (ac strikes me as crazy
hard)


Full stack real time SDR (Software Defined Radio) Wi-Fi implementation
on zynq FPGA with embedded ARM Linux. Compatible with Linux mac80211
SoftMAC framework.

hostapd, wpa_supplicant and other native Linux Wi-Fi tools already
work out of the box!

But for openwrt, I have too little experience, only know that it is
also a kind of embedded Linux.

Is openwrt above the mac80211 subsystem?

How much effort do you think we need to run openwrt on the openwifi
design?

If someone would like to work on this porting, we will definitely
help!

Thanks for your time, and have fun!

Best regards,
