Overview

6G telecommunications will deliver unprecedented data speeds, ultra-low latency, and intelligent, sensing-enabled networks that far exceeding 5G in performance and adaptability. These advancements will be driven in part by innovations at the radio access network (RAN) link layer—including expanded spectrum use, enhanced radio and baseband processing, agile multi-band antenna systems, and the integration of AI/ML into waveform design, receivers, and baseband algorithms. Realizing these technologies in working networks requires rigorous evaluation and validation of hardware and signal processing—first within the transmit and receive chains, then across diverse installation environments.

Simulation-based digital twins of antenna systems and deployment sites empower radio and antenna designers to validate 5G/6G physical layer RF and signal processing hardware virtually—anywhere in the world and even under motion. Ansys and Rohde & Schwarz have partnered to "bring the city to your lab," enabling next-generation AI-driven RAN system testing and virtual over-the-air (VOTA) performance verification. High-fidelity antenna system models allow engineers to evaluate complex baseband and MIMO processing and apply AI to the physical layer—before stepping into an anechoic chamber or moving to on-site OTA testing.

Ansys and Rohde & Schwarz deliver a hardware-in-the-loop measurement solution that emulates 5G, 6G, or other waveforms and their propagation through custom virtual environments. These signals can then be fed to any receiver under test to assess performance across the receiver and baseband chain. Advanced wireless channel emulation, significantly reduces the time and cost associated with chamber and OTA testing for new base station systems and updates to existing infrastructure.

What You Will Learn
