MathWorks today announced capabilities to strengthen design support for digitally-assisted RF MIMO Systems. Updates to RF Toolbox, SimRF, and Antenna Toolbox in Release 2016a, will help engineers ramp-up on RF simulation, assist in performing a first order RF budget analysis that is extendable with advanced models, and help integrate the results of RF design in system-level simulation. The introduction of RF Budget Analyzer in RF Toolbox helps engineers design RF front ends, focusing on getting started with RF modeling and simulation. This helps teams efficiently iterate between system-level specifications and implementation of architectural designs, and reduces time spent in debugging validation test benches. Engineers can now rapidly build executable specifications of the RF front-end and integrate the results of RF design into a system-level simulation. This allows for help with validation of behavior and, by facilitating sharing, supports collaboration with colleagues, suppliers, and customers. Antenna Toolbox helps to rapidly model, design, analyze, and visualize real-life antennas and
