Radio Frequency (RF) and Wi-Fi Channel Emulation | Vertex

Address critical and complex radio communications in a modular, versatile platform with unmatched flexibility for a broad number of applications.

OVERVIEW

What is Vertex?


The Vertex channel emulator is an advanced test and measurement solution that simulates the effects of signal interference (also known as fading) on wireless transmissions and replicates the noise and spatial conditions of complex wireless channels. Its cutting-edge capabilities enable users to emulate a real-world RF environment in the lab, making it possible to isolate and identify performance issues early in the development cycle.
