Abstract. This paper describes a Sandbridge Sandblaster system implementation including both hardware and software elements for a WiMax 802.16e system. The system is implemented on the fully functional multithreaded Sandblaster multiprocessor SB3010 SoC chip. The entire communication protocol, physical layer and MAC, has been implemented in software using pure ANSI C programming language and it executes in real time. In this paper, we also present a radio propagation analysis specific to the Samos island at the workshop location, and the DSP execution performance.
