ADAPTIVE RF SYSTEM TESTING SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A system and method for testing an adaptive RF system in an emulated RF environment using a feedback control module to efficiently and accurately evaluate the performance of the RF system under test in the search space.

1. A method of testing of an RF system in a emulated RF environment comprising the steps of:
(a) identifying at least two parameters to evaluate for an RF system, wherein a first parameter is an independent variable and a second parameter is a dependent variable; (b) testing the RF system by evaluating the at least two parameters across a first search space in a simulated RF environment; (c) determining a gradient between the first and second parameters across the first search space; (d) dividing the search space into a plurality of subspaces as a function of the determined gradient; (e) eliminating a subspace from further testing if the determined gradient for the subspace is less than a predetermined threshold; (f) testing the identified at least two parameters in the remaining subspaces that have not been eliminated; (g) continuing testing the identified at least two parameters in the remaining subspaces until a completion criteria is met.
