VisSim/Comm
Professional Edition
"If it doesn't work
mathematically, it won't work on the bench! Using VisSim/Comm,
we designed a new modulation synthesizer much faster than if we had
followed the conventional hardware prototype cycle for
proof-of-concept. We were able to validate our approach in a matter
of days as opposed to the several weeks required to design, assemble,
and test a breadboard."
-- Charles Gore, R & D Engineer, Ericsson
 VisSim/Comm is a Windows-based software program for the modeling
and simulation of end-to-end communication systems at the signal
or physical level. It is based on Visual Solutions well
established and highly regarded modeling and simulation software.
With a full complement of communication blocks and powerful,
time-domain simulation engine, VisSim/Comm provides fast
and accurate solutions for analog, digital and mixed-mode
communication system designs.
VisSim/Comm's intuitive block diagram interface makes it easy
to build, modify and maintain even the most complex system models.
Using VisSim/Comm, engineers can freely move among
the stages of model construction, simulation, optimization and
validation. This tightly integrated development platform allows
engineers to simulate and view signal waveforms at any stage of
the communication system chain. Importantly, all modeling and
simulation tasks can be completed without writing a line of code.
Ericsson Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of cellular
and PCS consumer electronics, has been using VisSim/Comm under an
early release program.
Use of adaptive
equalization to compensate for channel distortions in a
16-QAM communications link.
VisSim/Comm helps communication and
electrical engineers decrease design cycle time, minimize
hardware prototyping and build better products.
Ericsson
Shortens Design Cycle with VisSim/Comm
Charles
Gore, Research and Development Engineer at Ericsson, has this
to say about his experience with VisSim/Comm: "Using
VisSim/Comm, we designed a new modulation synthesizer much
faster than if we had followed the conventional hardware
prototype cycle for proof-of-concept. We were able to validate
our approach in a matter of days as opposed to the several
weeks required to design, assemble and test a breadboard.
VisSim/Comm makes it easier for us to develop innovative
architectures for the next generation of Ericsson transceiver
products. We keep finding new applications for this useful
tool. Most recently, we have been using VisSim/Comm to
investigate how to compensate for the effects of
nonlinearities in certain receiver architectures."
