W1918EP LTE-Advanced Baseband Verification Library

The W1918 LTE-A Baseband Verification Library provides the industry’s first commercial design support for the physical layer of 3GPP Release 10, enabling system and algorithm developers to deploy next-generation 4G performance with greater insight and greater confidence.

The LTE-A Baseband Verification Library is an optional new Layer 1 simulation reference library for Agilent SystemVue. The blockset, reference designs, and testbenches in the W1918 assist the design and verification of next-generation communication systems, by providing configurable physical layer waveforms and data for 3GPP Releases 8, 9 (LTE) and 10 (LTE-Advanced). The library is useful for simulation-based exploration of challenging algorithms, up to 8x8 MIMO Throughput verification, and integration with Agilent signal sources and analyzers.

What’s New in SystemVue 2012.06

• Support for multimedia broadcasting (MBMS)
• Support for control channel (CCH) decoding

More information

The W1918 library includes the W1910 LTE library (LTE release 9.1), and further adds LTE-Advanced algorithmic reference models, providing well over 160 core simulation blocks and nearly 3 dozen reference designs and physical layer verifications, as called out in the standard.
