What’s Included in the W1720?
The W1720 adds onto any SystemVue environment. It enables users to work with phased
arrays as either individual signals, or as a single “beam”. The W1720 includes
–– RF array analysis – enhances W1719 Spectrasys to work with arrays. Replaces ad hoc
spreadsheets with nonlinear RF analysis for N-element arrays used in RF beamforming,
with multiple levels of splitters/combiners, gain/phase states, and impairments from
nonlinear, mismatch, and noise effects. (requires W1719).
–– Dataflow array analysis – Models dynamic RF, Digital, and Hybrid beamforming topologies,
and provides a convenient “Timed Envelope Matrix” datatype that makes working with
1000 parallel signal paths as easy as 1 signal path.
–– RF Link – allows the RF array to be re-used at the system dataflow level. Directly validate
nonlinear Transmit/Receiver architectures on actual 5G, Radar/EW, or Satellite system
performance using realistic signals with active modulation, coding, and adaptive equaliza-
tion and filtering.
–– Beam measurements and visualization – Direct measurements of beamwidth, boresight
direction, sidelobe levels, nulls, and aggregate quantities such as directivity, G/T, and
effective radiated power.
–– System-level scenarios – Apply beamforming subsystems in active, system-simulation
scenarios in 5G, Radar/EW, and Satellite communications.
Figure 1. Among its many funcitons, the W1720 Phased Array Beamforming Kit adds an array analysis controller and special components and
mesaurements to the W1719 RF System Deisgn Kit (Spectrasys). If you already own the W1719, the W1720 adds on top, and enables the full dynamic
dataflow capability as well.
