I'm trying to detect the 802.11 beacon from my iphone 'hotspot' (2.4GHz, channel 1) using the ' Targeting the HDL Optimized 802.11 WLAN Beacon Frame Receiver Using Analog Devices AD9361/AD9364' example design.
I've used HDL Workflow Advisor to load the image onto the FPGA fabric without any problems but when I run the retargeted simulation, without error, there are no beacons to be found, on any channel.
To trouble shoot this I've tried using a 'to workspace' block to write the output of the SDR Receiver block to the workspace and it does show activity but it continues to do so even if I ground the antenna connector.
I now don't know how to continue troubleshooting since it seems the signal passing into the system is not coming from my antenna. Has anyone got any ideas for a sensible next step?
