“…The different classes and objects that are defined in the functional model are the results of a deep study of the standards. SystemC has been used to implement this model because it is really suitable for the implementation of functional models, and is also really convenient to build a virtual platform As BToUWB is still under specifications, this model will help us to evaluate the performance of the protocol, power and energy per bit consumption in an early development phase ( [11]). Moreover, the high level view of the system will allow us to experiment algorithms that will take the maximum of benefits of both standards at the L2CAP level (see Figure 1), which is the common layer of the BToUWB architecture.…”

The industry is merging two different Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN) technologies: Bluetooth (BT) and WiMedia Ultra Wide Band (UWB), into a single BT over UWB (BToUWB) specification. The goal is to provide low cost, low power and a wide range of data rate wireless communications for multimedia and mobile applications. The complexity to study such a system requires the development of a virtual prototype at a highlevel of abstraction. The model needs a fast simulation time in order to explore the algorithms necessary for the merging of the standards. Moreover, as the merging is still in a standardization phase, this virtual prototype helps to actively participate to this effort. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the methodology used to create a virtual prototype of a BToUWB device.

This paper presents a power consumption estimation methodology for wireless devices, consisting in hierarchical modeling of specific AMS-RF IP (Intellectual Properties). It provides accurate energy consumption models for specific devices, based on simulations and/or analytical expressions extraction. Thus, within a unified simulation environment, full system's characteristics such as BER (biterror rate), PER (packet-error rate) and DC power consumption can be evaluated in terms of block specifications (in this case, the RF power amplifier). It can be seen that the platform provides realistic accuracy with minimal electrical information, while maintaining acceptable simulation times. Also, the co-simulation advantages and drawbacks of coupling these power consumption models with network analysis are discussed.
