5G NR Library and DPD Models
The 5G NR library offers easy-to-configure signal sources and receivers that can be used to evaluate RF components and/or
RF links using system-level measurements. New testbenches accelerate the component design and evaluation process with
preconfigured 5G NR transmit (TX) and receive (RX) blocks and measurements supporting TX/RX functionality for both
downlink and uplink.
5G NR libraries and test models for TX/RX device and RF link validation
Conclusion
AWR Design Environment V15 software brings new and enhanced RF/microwave design and simulation to the Cadence
portfolio of EDA solutions. Advanced design automation optimizes engineering throughput and productivity by reducing
manual design tasks and supporting tool interoperability.
New circuit simulation capabilities address fast and rigorous nonlinear stability analysis for multi-stage and balanced ampli-
fiers, and video-band load pull to optimize low-frequency impedance terminations for reduced intermodulation distortion.
Network synthesis supports impedance network development using vendor components and PDKs, and a new integrated
transmission-line calculator and synthesis capabilities launched directly from schematic.
Robust simulation engines solve large structures more quickly using EM analysis with enhanced meshing and smart geometry
handling for chip, package, and board characterization. Preconfigured, 5G NR-compliant testbenches provide signal sources
and measurements for PA and RF link validation.
