Features

• IEEE 802.11ay Single Carrier/OFDM waveform generation.
• IEEE 802.11ay spatial multiplexing schemes: SU-SISO, SU-MIMO, MU-MIMO.
• Perform link-level bit error rate (BER), packet error rate (PER), data rate tests and analytical link-level spectral efficiency (SE) bound.
• Receiver algorithms: synchronization, channel estimation, carrier frequency offset (CFO) correction.
• Passive sensing using IEEE 802.11ay preamble.
• Active sensing using IEEE 802.11bf multi-static PPDU.
• Sensing signal processing algorithms: clutter removal, doppler processing, target detection, range and velocity estimation.
• Sensing accuracy analysis in terms of Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Normalized Mean Squared Error (NMSE).

Installation

The software does not require any installation procedure: simply download or clone the repository to your local folders.

Requirements

The codebase is written in MATLAB. It is currently being tested on MATLAB R2021b.

It requires the MATLAB WLAN toolbox.

How to Run

• Open main.m script and edit the variable scenarioNameStr with the scenario folder name scenarioFolder inside the folder .\example
• Run main.m

Documentation
