dc.descriptionThesis (MScEng (Electrical and Electronic Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.
dc.description.abstractThe use of emerging microprocessors has become increasingly popular in packet radio communication equipment. This is mainly because of the improved performance and hardware simplicity they offer. The new generation field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and microcontrollers are now widely used in the development of terminal node controller (TNC) components. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the use of these new generation FPGAs and microcontrollers in a TNC design, in order to utilise the software flexibility and hardware simplicity. The design process began with the selection of the available simple microcontroller-based modem that was just designed. Prior to its usage in a TNC, the software of the modem was modelled, in order to understand its signal processing functionality.en_ZA
