Evaluation Test of Software and Hardware Co-simulation

Software simulation has high scalability and flexibility. However, its authenticity and efficiency have a certain gap to the hardware simulation. This chapter will introduce the technique of co-simulation evaluation on software and hardware, so as to make up for weakness of software simulation in authenticity and efficiency. As a systematic statement, firstly, we will introduce the requirements, forms and applications of the co-simulation evaluation test with software and hardware. Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) simulation evaluation is an important and effective method forthenew technology test evaluation of wireless communications. Next, we will elaborate the co-simulefation evaluation test of software and hardware forthelink-level and system-level simulations, and present the real implementations of system test cases. Finally, we summarize the co-simulation test evaluation of software and hardware.
