RF Blockset
设计and simulate RF systems
RF Blockset™ provides a Simulink®用于设计RF通信和雷达系统的模型库和仿真引擎。
RF Blockset lets you simulate RF transceivers and front-ends. You can model nonlinear RF amplifiers to estimate gain, noise, even-order, and odd-order intermodulation distortion, including memory effects. For RF mixers, you can predict image rejection, reciprocal mixing, local oscillator phase noise, and DC offset. RF models can be characterized using data sheet specifications or measured data such as multiport S-parameters. They can be used to accurately model adaptive architectures, including automatic gain control (AGC), digital predistortion (DPD) algorithms, and beamforming.
RF预算分析仪应用程序允许您自动生成收发器模型和测量测试台,以验证性能并设置电路包络多载波模拟。
使用RF BlockSet您可以在不同级别的抽象中模拟RF系统。电路包络模拟使得具有任意拓扑的网络的高保真,多载波模拟。等效基带库启用单载波级联系统的快速,离散时间模拟。
Get Started:
RF Budget Analysis and Top-Down Design
使用RF预算分析仪应用程序to design a cascade of RF components. Build your system graphically or script it in MATLAB®。Analyze the budget of the cascade in terms of noise, power, gain, and nonlinearity.
设计RF transceivers for wireless communications and radar systems. Compute the budget considering impedance mismatches instead of relying on custom spreadsheets and complex computations. Use harmonic balance analysis to compute the effects of nonlinearity on gain and on second-order and third-order intercept points (IP2 and IP3). Inspect results numerically or graphically by plotting different metrics.
快速射频仿真
Go beyond analytical computations and simulate the effects of leakage, interferers, direct conversion, reciprocal mixing, and antenna coupling.
从RF预算分析仪应用程序,为多载波生成模型和测试台circuit envelope射频仿真。使用自动生成的模型作为基线设计RF收发器的体系结构,或从库中的块开始。
使用Equivalent Basebandlibrary to quickly estimate the impact of RF phenomena on overall system performance. Design a chain of components and perform single-carrier RF simulation of superheterodyne transceivers, including RF impairments such as noise, impedance mismatches, and odd-order nonlinearity.
使用理想化的基带library to model the system at a higher level of abstraction, further speed up RF simulation, or generate C code for deploying your model.
RF仿真,包括数字信号处理算法

RF组件建模
Model components at the system level, not at the transistor level, and speed up RF simulation. Design your RF system using models of amplifiers, mixers, filters, antennas, and more. RF components can be characterized by linear and nonlinear data sheet specifications or measurement data, such as S-parameter values.
使用可调组件如可变增益放大器s那attenuators那phase shifters那and开关to design adaptive RF systems with characteristics directly controlled by time-varying Simulink signals. Embed control logic and signal processing algorithms in the RF simulation to develop accurate models of transceivers, like theAnalog Devices®transceivers已在实验室验证。
Author your own RF blocksusing the Simscape™ language and build custom RF components (requiresSimscape).

Import Touchstone®files and use S-parameters to model input and output impedances, gain, and reverse isolation. Use the可变增益放大器to model time-varying nonlinear characteristics.
为了power amplifiers那use nonlinear characteristics such as AM/AM-AM/PM, or fit time-domain input-output narrowband or wideband characteristics using a generalized memory polynomial.

Automatically include the noise generated by passive S-parameters in the RF simulation. Alternatively, specify frequency-dependent noise parameters for the S-parameters of active components.

RF Model Validation
Measure the gain, noise figure, and S-parameters of the system under different operating conditions. Validate nonlinear characteristics such as IP2, IP3, image rejection, and DC offset. Usetestbenches.要生成所需的刺激并评估系统响应以计算所需的测量。
