Genesys 2015 introduces Keysight Sys-Parameters, a new breakthrough convenience in modeling RF system components from published datasheet specs for use directly in simulation. Sys-parameters are RF system component parameters such as P1dB, IP2, IP3, gain and noise figure of amplifier and mixers organized in a single spreadsheet format which is easy to understand or create. Genesys 2015 includes a new multi-dimensional interpolator to simulate Sys-Parameters over frequency, temperature and bias to give the best possible RF system simulation accuracy. New Sys-Parameter libraries from leading vendors with instant right-click access to selected component datasheet and website enables you to choose and simulate hardware for your RF system easily before purchase and implementation.

The following are some pictorial highlights of what’s new in Genesys 2015.

Figure 1. Genesys 2015 features new Keysight Sys-Parameters of system components from popular vendors such as Mini-Circuits and Analog Devices for easy drag-and-drop into RF system simulation.

Figure 2. Genesys 2015 interactive 3D graph for plotting multi-dimensional data from multi-variable swept analysis. This plot shows an amplifier output 1dB compression over frequency and temperature.

Figure 3. Genesys 2015 features 9 new synthesis tutorial videos on Mixers, Oscillators, Active Filters, Passive Filters, Equalizes, Signal Control, WhatIF, PLL and Advanced T-Line. These videos teach you how to design RF components at least 10x faster than manual methods.

Figure 4. Genesys 2015 full-featured MATLAB script debugger enables you to develop error-free, fully MATLAB compatible equations and scripts for pre- and post-processing of data for simulation and analysis.

Figure 5. Build component parts library easily for circuit and system parts for simulation and layout. Spreadsheet input, one row per part and use Genesys library builder to create downloadable vendor parts libraries for distribution.

Figure 6. New 64-bit Momentum EM simulator is faster, higher capacity and more robust. 3D viewer has interactive connectivity detection while far field plots, as shown for this planar antenna array, are calculated from user-defined phase and amplitude excitation for each port.
