5G Technology Development with MATLAB

Wireless engineers are pursuing 5G and other advanced technologies to achieve gigabit data rates, ubiquitous coverage, and massive connectivity for many applications such as IoT and V2X. The need to improve performance and coexist with multiple communications standards and devices while reducing the overall area and power imposes challenging requirements on baseband DSP, RF front ends, and antenna design. Gaining an insight into such complex systems and performing architectural analysis and tradeoffs require a design model that includes DSP, RF, antenna and channel, as well as impairments.

In this tutorial, you will learn how MATLAB & Simulink can help you:

• Rapidly create 5G, LTE & WLAN standards-compliant link-level simulations
• Leverage new channel models for massive MIMO and mm-wave communications
• Model large antenna arrays and explore system architectures such as hybrid beamforming
• Improve fidelity by jointly simulating digital baseband, RF front end & antenna effects in a single simulation
• Accelerate simulations using programming best practices, parallel computing, and C code generation
• Shorten implementation and verification of C & RTL designs using code generation and verification tools
