Channel Emulation Testing for Satellite Communications
  • Course
  • 3 items

In this course, we’ll learn how to test and find issues sooner by simulating realistic conditions from the satellite to the end user using a Channel Emulator.

Learn:

  • The importance of testing complicated Doppler, Delay, constantly changing link conditions, and MIMO
  • How mixing cellular & satellite links via MIMO/Multipoint provides for enhanced network reliability 
  • Keysight PropSim F64 Channel Emulator

Lesson 1 - Why Channel Emulation?

The importance of channel emulation testing for satellite communications. It covers the challenges of testing satellite communications systems in real-world environments, the benefits of using channel emulation testing, the different types of channel emulation models, and the challenges of using channel emulation models. The lesson also includes a case study of how channel emulation testing was used to improve the performance of a satellite communications system.

Lesson 2 - 5G NTN: Global Broadband

The use of channel emulation testing to verify the performance of 5G NTN global broadband systems. It covers the challenges of testing these systems in real-world environments, the benefits of using channel emulation testing, the different types of channel emulation models for 5G NTN global broadband, and the challenges of using these models. The lesson also includes a hands-on exercise in which you will use the Keysight Universal Channel Emulation (UCE) software to emulate a 5G NTN global broadband channel.
