"Great" Hardware Design in a Wireless World
As part three of the “Making Hardware Design Great Again” series, let’s see how high-level synthesis (HLS) is helping designers create SoCs for WiFi, Bluetooth, and 5G.
A common challenge in all three wireless spaces is that their standards are evolving… rapidly. Each new specification, or sub-specification, opens new opportunities. It’s a good opportunity for companies to establish themselves as providers for the new standard. On the flip side, it can also be a negative opportunity for the current leaders if they give up their leadership position by not being one of the first providers.
For example, let’s look at Wi-Fi. As of April 2017, IEEE has eight additional 802.11 projects (evolving standards) underway. Each of these presents opportunities, good or bad, for SoC providers.
