Abstract

The disclosed embodiments relate to a centralized buffer architecture for an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) receiver. In this architecture, a central buffer is shared by the main functional blocks or modules of the OFDM receiver. A state machine enables access to the buffer by the functional blocks to maintain buffer coherency.
