Overview
In this webinar, you will learn about new capabilities in MATLAB for modeling RF propagation channels and scenarios. You will learn how easy it is in MATLAB, to visualize wireless scenarios and model indoor, outdoor and satellite RF propagation performance. You will also learn about new spatial channel modeling techniques, and the use of ray tracing methods. Practical demonstrations will show you how to quickly get started studying and visualizing RF propagation scenarios.
Highlights
- Configuring antenna and antenna arrays transmitters and receivers on maps
- Integrating effects of terrain, building elevations and atmospheric conditions
- Analyzing the antenna and antenna array performance including propagation effects.
- Indoor and outdoor RF propagation modeling including ray tracing techniques
- Satellite scenario modeling and orbit visualizations with new Satellite Communications Toolbox
