MathWorks is at the European Microwave Week (EuMW) 2025 in Utrecht, Netherlands this week. EuMW is Europe’s premier microwave, RF, wireless, and radar event, bringing together thousands of engineers, researchers, and industry leaders. Attendees can visit MathWorks at Booth A094 to explore interactive demos and attend a short course focused on emerging satellite communication and non-terrestrial network (NTN) technologies.
“Attendees can gain practical insights into how MATLAB® and Simulink® streamline RF system design — from antenna modeling and signal processing to hardware prototyping,” said Giorgia Zucchelli, Principal Product Manager, RF and Mixed-Signal, MathWorks. “Our booth demos and short course showcase how engineers can reduce development cycles, improve system performance, and apply integrated modeling techniques to real-world challenges in radar, satellite communications, and wireless communications systems.”
MathWorks Booth Demos (Booth A094)
MathWorks is conducting three hands-on demonstrations that highlight how MATLAB and Simulink support the design and simulation of advanced RF and wireless systems.
- Antenna-to-Bits: RF System Design from Antenna to Bits - Model and simulate wireless communications and radar systems from antenna to bits, including large antenna arrays, RF transceivers, PCB boards, data converters, DSP algorithms, and control logic. Learn how to build a digital twin to evaluate propagation scenarios and explore implementation tradeoffs.
- OFDM-Based Radar Sensing with USRP Radios - Perform range-Doppler processing using a custom OFDM waveform transmitted via NI Ettus USRP E320 radios. MATLAB controls the signal loopback and bistatic processing, with visualizations showing target motion and algorithm performance.
- Satellite Communications: Modeling Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) - Simulate LEO satellite constellations, onboard antennas, signal propagation channels, and receiver architectures. Discover the value of integrated modeling for next-generation SatCom systems.
New Modelithics Library for Matlab
MathWorks and Modelithics have announced the launch of the new Modelithics Library for MATLAB, featuring Microwave Global Models™ for nearly 28,000 components from over 30 leading suppliers. These models integrate with RF Toolbox™ in MATLAB to support the design of filters, matching networks, amplifiers, and more.
Advanced features include substrate scaling, part value scalability, and de-embedding — offering a flexible alternative to traditional S-parameter files. Engineers can now use MATLAB to simulate RF component behavior with greater accuracy and efficiency.
Short Course at EuMW
"Architecture and Applications for Emerging SATCOM and NTN Communications Networks", on Monday, September 22, 8:30 am – 12:30 pm, at Juliana 3 Conference Room. In this session, speakers from MathWorks, Mobile Experts, Vites GmbH, Rohde & Schwarz, and SIAE Microelettronica explore the rapid evolution of LEO satellite networks and their role in enabling 6G NTN. Topics will include terminal design, beamforming, antenna characterization, and system-level linearization. Industry experts will provide a comprehensive review of market trends, technical challenges, and ecosystem development.
