Fast Coding of LTE eNB L1 API Definition

Like other modern systems a LTE eNodeB has a software layer and a hardware layer. Both these layers shall be connected through a fast application programming interface (API) not to compromise the performance of the whole system. When there is no hard-processor available on hardware side and the whole API must be implemented in FPGA, the design process takes too much time. This work presents a systematic way to fast code Small Cell Forum LTE eNB L1 API Definition [1] by using perl scripts. Our results indicates a series of advantages over traditional methods like a code to script character relation of 7.79 to 1, a cleaner code to support and reliability. These results points out a design methodology that can be applied on several coding abstractions or languages achieving similar results as the ones founded here.
