F9860000A Channel Studio

The F9860500A Channel Studio RaySim Tool (RaySim) is a state-of-the-art RF ray tracing solution designed for quick and accurate site-specific RF propagation scenario creation for complex new wireless technologies in 5G Advanced and 6G. The solution supports link-level, system-level, and network-level RF scenario simulations for Keysight’s or customer digital twins. This allows the seamless creation of real-time emulations for hardware-in-the-loop testing using Keysight's end-to-end emulation portfolio for device and radio access networks testing with RF channel emulation.

RaySim enables the seamless virtualization of drive test routes with high RF fidelity, facilitating realistic and effective 24 / 7 continuous integration testing of new software releases or network configurations. The solution supports MIMO and Massive MIMO radios, multiple UEs, and antenna beam pattern embedding. Wireless system parameters can be easily adjusted to evaluate various scenarios quickly in the lab. RaySim is the ideal solution to generate site-specific datasets for AI / ML model training and on-target benchmarking of AI-RAN and AI-Device use cases.

With the F9860200A Channel Studio RF Field-to-Lab Tool, you can easily bridge the gap between lab and field testing under realistic air-interface conditions through seamless real-world representation of the environment. This process accelerates the validation of wireless devices and network equipment. The RF Field-to-Lab tool offers a repeatable and realistic lab-based test method that enables you to cost-effectively and quickly verify multiple designs or multiple revisions of a single design. You can also build a library of RF Field-to-Lab test cases containing data measured in various locations around the world.

The RF Field-to-Lab tool imports radio channel parameters (e.g. Cell ID, RSRP, SNR, and MIMO correlation) from the measurement files to create a channel model for the channel emulator. The RF Field-to-Lab tool delivers reliable replication of recorded field conditions without the need for additional modeling or user input.

The F9860400A Channel Studio Tapped Delay Line (TDL) Modeling Tool is a comprehensive application for creating custom fading models. The generated models can be used in a broad range of applications, including cellular wireless communications, defense, broadcasting, and general-purpose communication link and receiver testing.

The TDL modeling tool is optionally available in the M9484C VXG Vector Signal Generator and the E7515B UXM 5G Wireless Test Platform products. The TDL tool is part of the PROPSIM Standard Tools software.

All the fundamental fading profile parameters are available in a simple and intuitive user interface. The TDL tool is fast, easy-to-use, and supports several Keysight product platforms.
