WaveBee Creator

Now part of Keysight’s V2X product portfolio, the WaveBee Creator is a powerful software for creating scenario-based V2X test environments for laboratory and field tests: Either preinstalled on Windows®based Tablet PC and ready to run without further configuration or installable by customer on any Windows® product for maximum flexibility.

Scenarios with multiple, simulated V2X participants can be created on an interactive map and their behavior can be controlled. This includes, for example, typical I2V messages from an RSU at a traffic signal or dynamic vehicles with corresponding trajectories and waypoints (V2X messages) as well as messages triggered by special events.

This enables reliable and replicable test environments with identical parameters for functional testing of the system to be validated.

For example, it could be a V2X-based driver assistance function of a vehicle or a function on the side of traffic engineering systems such as public transport prioritization or traffic flow optimization.

The test scenarios of the WaveBee Creator can be set up for compatibility with almost any complexity, whether sending a single V2X message or addressing highly complex dynamic driving environments with several simulated vehicles, traffic signals, and events.

Five features

• Replicable V2X test environments for laboratory and field testing

• Functional testing of vehicle or traffic infrastructure

• Scenario-based test case creation without programming knowledge

• Multi V2X standard support (EU, USA, China)

• Hybrid communication DSRC and C-V2X

Typical areas of application

• Research and development

• V2X field tests and trials

• Safeguarding of series systems (e.g., V2X series control units in automobiles)

• Simulation of vehicles and traffic signals for smart city applications

• Integration into test frameworks in vehicle development and simulation (HiL, ViL)

• Day 1/Day X V2X use case application validation

Technical Details

These test environments can be created without programming knowledge and without dependencies on other systems and transferred to suitable WaveBee V2X environment generators (e.g., WaveBee Togo) and generated directly under laboratory or field test conditions.

The V2X messages of all simulated participants involved in the test scenario are sent out by the WaveBee environment generator via the air interface, making real end-to-end tests using the desired transmission technology possible.
