Reading the book that was suggested would be a good start; however, do not start
developing a driver on your own. The necessary code to support the LP- and N-PHY
devices are to be integrated into the existing b43 driver.

The process will be to take the specifications at
http://bcm-v4.sipsolutions.net/802.11, and convert them into code following the
existing code structure of b43. If you think you can do this, you should
coordinate with Michael Buesch, who is the maintainer for the driver.
