The R&S®AREG800A has a scenario player built in for replaying predefined, dynamic scenarios. Scenarios come in the form of binary files containing a sequence of timestamped ASAM Open Simulation Interface (OSI) messages describing the radar objects that should be simulated. The R&S®AREG800A can replay these scenario files and provides convenient playback and remote-control functions, as well as automatic mapping of simulated objects to the connected RF frontends.This application note presents background information and details about how to create said scenarios using Python and how to replay them on a R&S®AREG800A. Examples for scripting dynamic scenario in Python are provided as well.

The R&S®AREG800A is a powerful automotive radar echo generator. It is capable of over the air stimulation of automotive radar sensors with multiple static or dynamic radar objects. It can either be paired with R&S®AREG8 mmWave frontends for RF performance testing, or with the R&S®QAT100 antenna array for simulating ADAS scenarios. This application note shows how to configure the R&S®AREG800A with either R&S®AREG8-24/81 remote millimeter wave frontends or the R&S®QAT100 advanced antenna array. It covers the instrument setup, connections, and configuration necessary to perform static object simulation using a basic setup.

As vehicles integrate more ADAS & Automated Driving (AD) functions, precise radar validation is essential for safety features like AEBSS and SAE Level 2 & 3 automation. Simulation-based testing offers flexibility but lacks real-world accuracy, while road testing is costly and inconsistent. Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) solutions bridge this gap, enabling real-time radar sensor evaluation with high repeatability.Rohde & Schwarz supports this with the R&S®AREG800A radar echo generator and R&S®QAT100 antenna array, simulating dynamic targets in angle, range, velocity, and size, and integrating via Open Simulation Interface (OSI). With cutting-edge radar test solutions, R&S ensures safer, more reliable ADAS/AD systems.This educational note explores the current state of closed-loop testing for radar-based hardware, focusing on how Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) systems enable realistic validation of automotive radar sensors. It highlights key driving scenarios that HIL must address and demonstrates how the R&S®AREG800A radar echo generator and R&S®QAT100 antenna array support closed-loop validation.
