RF System Time-Domain Simulation

Run high-accuracy time-domain simulation on an RF signal chain using the rfsystem System Object. Under the hood, rfsystem auto-generates and manages a Simulink/RF Blockset model -- the user works entirely in MATLAB with the standard System Object step/reset/release interface.

When to Use

• Running circuit envelope or idealized baseband time-domain simulation on an rfbudget chain
• Streaming time-domain data through an RF system for EVM, power, or spectral analysis
• Modeling MISO receivers or SIMO transmitters
• Inspecting auto-generated RF Blockset Simulink models
• Comparing Friis/HarmonicBalance budget results against full time-domain simulation

When NOT to Use

• Cascade budget analysis (gain, NF, IP3) without time-domain -- use matlab-analyze-rf-budget
• Standalone baseband signal processing without Simulink -- use matlab-process-rf-baseband
• Frequency-domain S-parameter analysis -- use matlab-manage-sparameters
• Building circuit topologies from R/L/C elements -- use matlab-compose-rf-circuit
