The Realtek RTL8187L, fully complying with IEEE 802.11a/b/g
specifications, is a low-profile highly integrated cost-effective
Wireless LAN USB 2.0 network interface controller that integrates a
USB 2.0 PHY, SIE (Serial Interface Engine), 8051 MCU, a Wireless
LAN MAC, and a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum/OFDM baseband
processor onto one chip. It provides USB high speed (480Mbps), and
full speed (12Mbps), and supports 4 endpoints for transfer pipes.
To reduce protocol overhead, the RTL8187L supports Short InterFrame
Space (SIFS) burst mode to send packets back-to-back. A protection
mechanism prevents collisions among 802.11b nodes.
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Complementary Code Keying
(CCK), and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)
baseband processing are implemented to support all IEEE 802.11a,
802.11b, and 802.11g data rates.
Differential phase shift keying modulation schemes, DBPSK and DQPSK
with data scrambling capability, are available, along with
complementary code keying to provide data rates of 1, 2, 5.5, and
11Mbps, with long or short preamble. A high-speed Fast Fourier
Transform (FFT)/Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT), combined
with BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM modulation of the individual
sub-carriers, provides data rates of 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and
54Mbps, with rate-compatible punctured convolutional coding with a
coding rate of 1/2, 2/3, and 3/4.
An enhanced signal detector, an adaptive frequency domain
equalizer, and a soft-decision Viterbi decoder are built-in to
alleviate severe multipath effects. Efficient IQ-imbalance
calibration, DC offset, phase noise, frequency offset, and timing
offset compensation reduce radio frequency front-end impairments.
Selectable digital transmit and receiver FIR filters are provided
to meet the requirements of transmit spectrum masks, and to reject
adjacent channel interference, respectively.
Both in the transmitter and receiver, programmable scaling in the
digital domain trades the quantization noise against the increased
probability of clipping. Robust signal detection, symbol boundary
detection, and channel estimation perform well at the minimum
sensitivity.
The RTL8187L supports fast receiver Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
and antenna diversity functions, and an adaptive transmit power
control function to obtain better performance in the analog
portions of the transceiver. It also has on-chip digital-to-analog
converters and analog-to-digital converters for analog I and Q
inputs and outputs, transmit TSSI and receiver RSSI inputs, and
transmit and receiver AGC outputs.
The RTL8187L is highly integrated and requires no 'glue' logic or
external memory. It keeps network maintenance costs low and
eliminates usage barriers.
