Abstract
There is currently no all-encompassing RF analysis tool on the market that allows for complete end-to-end military and commercial RF communications system analysis and simulation. While myriad tools exist to provide specific functional analysis within this scope, there is no tool to pull all of these functions together, while providing additional functions and algorithmic control over everything in the meantime. The BAE systems integrated RF design environment (IRFDE) software system is designed to do precisely this. It is an all-encompassing RF analysis integration environment that can be used to analyze any communications system or element within, from individual radio communications, to individual platform systems, to complex deployed systems comprising a variety of radios across a wide area, to the most complex system of systems including variants of everything. The end-to-end communication system analysis and simulation that IRFDE enables includes static or mobile scenario creation and communication link analysis at any location in the world, taking into consideration terrain and clutter effects, rain and atmospheric losses (including HF), multipath fading, Doppler shifting and shadowing
