Self-healing capabilities through wireless reconfiguration of FPGAs

This paper presents a solution for the Wi-Fi reconfiguration of FPGAs. A design that manages the reconfiguration process of a Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA by using a Wi-Fi Tag4M device that receives reconfiguration data wirelessly from a Configuration Server was developed. This research is especially important for adding self-healing capabilities to large and complex digital systems.
