Comprehensive vehicle radar test system
National Instruments Korea - Booth 3003

Built for automated design validation, test and measurement, the vehicle radar test system (VRTS) from National Instruments provides automated radar measurement and obstacle simulation capabilities for 76-81GHz vehicular radar systems. The VRTS’s flexible obstacle generation capability allows engineers to test the embedded software of radar and other ADAS through simulation of a wide range of generated scenarios. In addition, the combination of high-performance mmWave Radio Heads and the PXI Vector Signal Transceiver also allows engineers to conduct precision RF measurements for beam characterization and testing. As a result, engineers can utilize the same measurement hardware for all phases of ADAS and radar system development – from R&D to high-volume manufacturing test. The VRTS is part of a platform-based approach to test and measurement, so it easily integrates with other PXI measurement hardware as part of a comprehensive automotive test system. In sensor fusion testing applications, engineers can combine and synchronize the VRTS with other measurement hardware to simultaneously simulate multiple sensor types. Typical test systems are often configured as part of a hardware-in-the-loop simulation in which the test equipment simulates the behavior of the environment to test embedded software.
