The Realtek RTL8189ETV is a highly integrated single-chip 802.11n Wireless LAN （WLAN）
network SDIO interface （SDIO 1.1/ 2.0/ 3.0 compliant） controller. It is a WLAN MAC， a 1T1R
capable WLAN baseband， and WLAN RF in a single chip. The RTL8189ETV provides a
complete soluTIon for a high throughput performance integrated wireless LAN device.
The RTL8189ETV WLAN baseband implements Orthogonal Frequency Division MulTIplexing
（OFDM）with 1 transmit and 1 receive path and is compaTIble with the IEEE 802.11n
specificaTIon. Features include one spatial stream transmission， short guard interval （GI） of 400ns，
spatial spreading， and transmission over20MHz and 40MHz bandwidth.
For legacy compatibility， Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum （DSSS）， Complementary Code
Keying （CCK）and OFDM baseband processing are included to support all IEEE 802.11b and
802.11g data rates.Differential phase shift keying modulation schemes， DBPSK and DQPSK
with data scrambling capability，are available， and CCK provides support for legacy data rates，
with long or short preamble. The high-speed FFT/IFFT paths， combined with BPSK， QPSK，
16QAM， and 64QAM modulation of the individual subcarriers and rate compatible punctured
convolutional coding with coding rate of 1/2， 2/3， 3/4， and 5/6，provide higher data rates of
54Mbps and 150Mbps for IEEE 802.11g and 802.11n OFDM respectively.
The RTL8189ETV WLAN Controller builds in an enhanced signal detector， an adaptive
frequency domain equalizer， and a soft-decision Viterbi decoder to alleviate severe multi-path
effects and mutual interference in the reception of multiple streams. Robust interference
detection and suppression are provided to protect against Bluetooth， cordless phone， and
microwave oven interference.
Efficient IQ-imbalance， DC offset， phase noise， frequency offset， and timing offset
compensations are provided for the radio frequency front-end. Selectable digital transmit and
receive FIR filters are provided to meet transmit spectrum mask requirements and to reject
adjacent channel interference， respectively.
The RTL8189ETV WLAN Controller supports fast receiver Automatic Gain Control （AGC）
with synchronous and asynchronous control loops among antennas， antenna diversity functions，
and adaptive transmit power control function to obtain the better performance in the analog
portions of the transceiver.
The RTL8189ETV WLAN MAC supports 802.11e for multimedia applications， 802.11i for
security， and 802.11n for enhanced MAC protocol efficiency. Using packet aggregation
techniques such as A-MPDU with BA and A-MSDU， protocol efficiency is significantly
improved. Power saving mechanisms such as Legacy Power Save， and U-APSD， reduce the
power wasted during idle time， and compensates for the extra power required to transmit OFDM.
The RTL8189ETV provides simple legacy and 20MHz/40MHz co-existence mechanisms to
ensure backward and network compatibility.
