WaveBee Touch

Now part of Keysight’s V2X product portfolio, the WaveBee Touch is an all-in-one system for V2X analysis on message level and designed as a robust tool for everyday use. Depending on the application, the system offers a wide range of display options: from visualization of all received messages on an interactive map to an analysis of the RAW format of an individual message.

This enables V2X developers, test engineers, and technicians to provide comprehensive support in the development, installation, and maintenance processes of V2X systems of all kinds, independent of the respective manufacturer of the system to be tested.

In both laboratory and field use, the WaveBee Touch system has proven its worth with automotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, engineering service providers, C-ITS operators, V2X test field operators, test site operators, manufacturers of traffic engineering equipment, and traffic engineering test laboratories.

The WaveBee Touch has three operating modes:

Live: Shows all live and on-site data received on the air interface in an interactive map with direct analysis of V2X messages in selectable levels of detail.

Record: Records all received data in addition to the live mode display and analysis. This allows all data traffic on the air interface to be evaluated and analyzed later. Data export is possible in a PCAP format to make the recording available to downstream systems.

Playback: Allows the playback of recorded V2X data in order to view and analyze self-made recordings in detail directly on site. Furthermore, this mode also enables the import, playback, and analysis of PCAP recordings from third-party systems.

Five features

• Manufacturer-independent validation system

• Message level conformance testing

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

• Hybrid Communication DSRC and C-V2X

• Logging and analysis directly on site; compact with only one device

Typical areas of application

• Research and development

• Functional validation of series systems (e.g., automobile V2X series ECUs)

• Installation (e.g., of Roadside Units - RSUs/C-ITS stations)

• Maintenance and operational safety by means of test definitions and reporting (e.g., traffic systems)

• Conformance testing/interoperability testing (e.g., in mixed networks of different V2X vendors)

Technical Details

The WaveBee Touch is the ideal all-purpose tool for visualization, recording, and analysis of V2X messages bundled in a compact, stand- alone system.

This product is ready to use without programming knowledge for validation, conformance testing, interoperability testing, and functional verification—whether for functional validation of a V2X on-board unit of a production vehicle, a roadside unit in a C-ITS highway corridor or at an inner-city traffic signal installation.
