MathWorks and Rohde & Schwarz: Leveraging AI to Innovate and Optimize RF Systems

Overview

In this presentation co-presented by MathWorks and Rohde & Schwarz USA, we will show how to apply AI capabilities to solve wireless communications and radar problems more effectively than with traditional methods.  These problems range from spectrum sensing to autoencoders, from digital pre-distortion design to beam management, from array pattern synthesis to object positioning.  You will learn how you can integrate your existing PyTorch or TensorFlow AI network code with MATLAB’s powerful waveform generation capabilities.  We will describe AI-driven workflows, including data generation, AI network training and validation with GPUs, testing with software defined radios, and deployment on embedded devices and enterprise systems.  Finally, we will describe a Rohde & Schwarz product that uses HDL code autogenerated by a MATLAB AI workflow to implement an FPGA-based record, analysis, and playback system. 

Highlights

  • Explore how to easily interoperate with 3rd party environments like Python 
  • Explore low-code and no-code solutions to: 
    • Waveform generation 
    • AI network design and training 
    • Network testing and validation 
  • Learn how to deploy your validated models to enterprise or embedded systems, or FPGAs
