| Agilent Technologies Accelerates Early Wireless Design Verification with New Release of SystemVue | | |
June 5, 2012 -- Agilent Technologies, Inc. today announced a new release of SystemVue, Agilent's premier platform for designing communications systems.
SystemVue 2012.06 provides deeper design-flow integration of baseband signal-processing tools with intellectual property reference libraries, RF electronic design automation tools and test equipment. The software enables system architects to predict and cross-verify baseband and RF physical-layer performance at earlier phases of the design process, enabling faster deployment of 4G, WLAN and aerospace/ defense systems.
SystemVue 2012.06 improves the design flow for new communications systems by creating an effective platform for cross-domain debugging. By bringing target-specific FPGA tools up to the physical layer of the system, HDL designers can validate against accurate RF models and live test and measurement results, for cross-domain modeling.
New SystemVue 2012.06 enhancements
-
A native math language (.m) debugger that enables line-by-line execution with breakpoints and assertions across multiple model objects, while preserving the underlying MATLAB .m format.
-
C++ modeling with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010. (W1718 C++ Code Generator supports interactive cross-platform debugging, code generation and system-level verification.)
-
VHDL/ Verilog verification that adds Aldec Riviera PRO HDL cosimulation.
-
Direct FPGA flow support for Altera Stratix and Cyclone parts, through integration of Altera Quartus with SystemVue's W1717 Hardware Design Kit. (SystemVue now supports vendor-neutral HDL code-generation that integrates directly with both Xilinx and Altera tools.)

Other enhancements
SystemVue 2012.06 also features updates to several libraries and design personalities as maintenance upgrades. The impacted solutions include:
-
W1905 Radar library, now featuring multitargeting to synthetic aperature radars.
-
W1716 Digital Pre-Distortion, with added speed and user-interface improvements.
-
W1916 3G library, now with support for dual-carrier HSPA+.
-
W1917 WLAN library, now with legacy support for 802.11b/g/n to 802.11a/ac.
-
W1918 LTE-Advanced library, now with support for multimedia broadcasting (MBMS) and control-channel (CCH) decoding.
-
W1713 SerDes library, now with optical interconnect models.
-
W1461 SystemVue platform, now with Monte Carlo and optimization analysis modes, and additional examples for satellite applications.
