RF based wireless data transmission between two FPGAs

This paper presents an economic, re-configurable, wireless communication system between two FPGAs (Spartan 3AN Starter Kit) using RF based wireless transmission at 433 MHz. This paper brings the two domains of Digital VLSI and Wireless communication, to accomplish the task of conveying data from source to destination. In this system, the 4-bit data generated at transmitter FPGA, is transmitted serially. The serial data received at the Receiver end, is again converted to 4-bit parallel data. The change in data is reflected by the blinking of LEDs on the FPGA board. This system can be very useful to remotely extract features and perform complex functions based on data received, hence can be used for Biomedical applications like Remote Health care monitoring.
