A testbed was designed and constructed for evaluating Harris Semiconductor's new Spread Spectrum IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN chipset.
The testbed consists of a real-time RF channel simulator, PC to generate and receive data, laptop to control the evaluation module, and
RF equipment to monitor the system. In order to assemble the testbed, two high speed (4Mbps) 16-bit ISA cards and supporting software
were designed to interface to the PC and an RF interface was designed to connect the channel simulator.
