802.11p Add-On for LabVIEW - MONITORING

The 802.11p Add-On for LabVIEW - MONITORING delivers unique access to the DSRC 802.11p standard in LabVIEW™ for the future V2X (Vehicle-To-Anything) communications based on National Instruments™ hardware platforms NI USRP and NI PXI (VST). It includes (a) a LabVIEW API (functions palete) incl. examples for programming 802.11p-based applications in LabVIEW and (b) the Host Control Manager (HCM) for interaction with the local communication hardware.

The MONITORING package enables transmission (send + receive) of regular 802.11p packets (MYC + PHY layer) and offers precise timing of the MPDU-packet output and precise time information of the received packets. In addition the package adds features for failure injection by data and timing manipulation (Packet Replay) as well as monitoring of the data traffic using standardised protocol TZSP.

At present following hardware is supported:
• NI USRP-2953
• NI USRP-2954
• NI PXIe-5644 (VST)

The package is designed for high-load communication, in-depth stressing and debugging the functionality of 802.11p - capable devices in development, validation and research applications.
For the API LabVIEW 2014 or higher (development version) is required. The HCM requires LabVIEW 2015 Run-Time Engine as well as suitable device drivers (NI USRP or NI VST), version 15.
