- Resources
HIGHLIGHTS
- Pre-configured common Radar signal test bench including BarkerCode, FrankCode, PolyTimeCode, CW, FSK, LFM and PULSE signals
- Enables design optimization against transmitter performance, such as EVM, ACPR, and Waveform
- Shareable for use in Advanced Design System (ADS) and with GoldenGate
The W2382EP Radar Verification Test Bench Element includes two workspaces, a Radar Transmitter workspace and a Radar Transmitter Source workspace.
Radar Transmitter
The Radar Transmitter (TX) workspace provides a verification test bench to measure Radar transmitter characteristics including spectrum, waveform and ACF. The schematic of the design in SystemVue is shown below.
The center frequency of the input signal to DUT(SVE_Link in the design) is set by FCarrier_In, while center frequency of the output signal from DUT(SVE_Link in the design) is set by FCarrier_Out. RF distortions can be simulated by setting parameters GainImbalance, PhaseImbalance, etc. Several Radar signal Models are provided in this workspace. You can select SignalType to configure different Radar signals including BarkerCode, FrankCode, CW, PloyTimeCode, FSK, LFM and PULSE signals. When the Radar signal type is selected, corresponding parameters are valid. The transmitted signal mean power is set by SignalPower. SignalPower specifies the mean power of the transmitted.

Radar Transmitter Source
The Radar Transmitter (TX) Source workspace provides a verification test bench to generate the Radar signals. The schematic of the design in SystemVue is shown below.
The center frequency of the input signal to DUT(SVE_Link in the design) is set by FCarrier_In, while center frequency of the output signal from DUT(SVE_Link in the design) is set by FCarrier_Out. RF distortions can be simulated by setting parameters GainImbalance, PhaseImbalance, etc. Several Radar signal Models are provided in this workspace. You can select SignalType to configure different Radar signals. The supported Radar signal type include BarkerCode, FrankCode, CW, PolyTimeCode, FSK, LFM and PULSE signals. The transmitted signal mean power is set by SignalPower. SignalPower specifies the mean power of the transmitted signal.
