Bluetooth Modeling in MATLAB
Overview
Today’s engineers are wrestling with analyzing and verifying Bluetooth links and networks, especially as Bluetooth 6 has rolled out. This webinar will explore MATLAB-based examples and reference designs to help you simulate and analyze the Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) and Bluetooth Classic PHY layer. You will learn how to perform waveform generation and visualization, signal recovery and analysis in the presence of RF impairments, and end-to-end simulation. Also, you will learn to perform Bluetooth/WLAN coexistence analyses at the link and network levels. Finally, you will learn how Bluetooth performs localization with techniques like angle of arrival/departure, channel sounding (phase-based ranging and round-trip time), and even AI.
Highlights
With the examples presented in the webinar, you can:
- Perform end-to-end link simulation for all Bluetooth waveform types, in the presence of RF imperfections
- Analyze Bluetooth/WLAN coexistence and interference
- Perform positioning operations with angle-of-departure (AoD) and angle-of-arrival (AoA) estimation, convolutional neural networks, and channel sounding
- Model, simulate, and analyze Bluetooth LE and Bluetooth Mesh networks
- Perform transmitter and receiver verification tests according to the Bluetooth specifications
- Model, simulate, and analyze the Bluetooth Classic protocol stack
- Model Bluetooth LE channel selection algorithms, Bluetooth Classic frequency hopping algorithms, and Bluetooth LE device connection procedures
- Model the effectiveness of LE Audio (Auracast)
