+== 1) Functional Description ==
+
+This VCI target corresponds to a IEEE802.16e LDPC decoder. It embeds an internal hardware Cycle Accurate Bit Accurate model of the [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept]'s IEEE802.16e WiMAX LDPC decoder [http://www.turboconcept.com/prod_tc4200wimax.php tc4200]. 
+
+!TurboConcept's TC4200-WiMAX Core is a high speed Low Density Parity Check code (LDPC) decoder optimized for WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) specifications. A patented decoding architecture allows meeting high throughputs within small devices, and still offering close-to-ideal Bit Error Rate (BER) performances.
+
+
+[[Image(tc4200.png,align=right,nolink) Figure 1 - Tc4200]]
+
+Figure 1 presents the general core structure. The Tc4200 is made of a VCI wrapper and an internal hardware decoder model which communicates using proprietary FIFO-like protocols.

+
+== 5) Limitation ==
+
+This model has the following two limitations:
+  * stopping criterion is disable;
+  * fixed number of performed iterations.
+
+The number of performed iterations is fixed to a reasonable value still offering close-to-ideal Bit Error Rate (BER) performances. Please contact [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept] for information about these limitations.
+
+== 6) License ==
+
+The VCI wrapper is licensed under the SoCLib, GNU LGPLv2.1 license.
+
+The VCI wrapper instantiates an internal hardware decoder. This internal hardware decoder is licensed under BSD-like license. 
+
+This internal hardware decoder is distributed in a binary form. 
+
+== 7) RTL model ==
+
+Please contact [http://www.turboconcept.com TurboConcept] for information about purchasing a fully functional RTL model of the internal hardware decoder.
