Implementation of Functional Block Radio Unit Based on System-on-Chip

Abstract

This article discusses the implementation of the Radio Unit functional block based on the System-on-Chip. The primary focus was on integrating Radio Unit blocks such as modulation and Fast Fourier Transform on Field-Programmable Gate Array. Technical aspects of design, module testing, and Radio Unit block performance optimization are thoroughly examined. The results demonstrate that when separating the functionality of the 7.3 technology Fifth Generation (5G) radio block, the modulation module uses the minimum Field-Programmable Gate Array resources compared to other blocks. The Fast Fourier Transform block can meet delay requirements at the maximum Field-Programmable Gate Array size and clock frequency of 250 MHz. This article serves as a resource for engineers and researchers interested in optimizing the development and integration process of high-performance functional blocks in modern radio systems.
