The main objective of this paper is implementation of both transmitter and receiver of Physical Downlink Control Channel
(PDCCH). The design process of PDCCH transmitter and receiver are carried out in architecture under Multiple Input
Multiple Output (MIMO) 2×2 antenna configurations. Xilinx Spartan3E XC3S500E board and Xilinx Integrated Simulation
Environment (ISE) tool are used to accomplish our chip design and algorithm verification work. Simulation of the
transmitter and receiver are carried out by using ModelSim SE 6.5. Based on simulation and implementation, results are
discussed in terms of Register Transfer Level (RTL) design, FPGA editor, power estimation and resource estimation. The
results can be further improved in term of speed, no. of registers, and frequency.
