RF Channel Modeler System Requirements

Listed below are the software and hardware requirements for the Ansys RF Channel Modeler™ plugin. For a complete description of the Ansys Systems Tool Kit^® STK^® application requirements, refer to the System Requirements topic.

Software requirements

Since the RF Channel Modeler plugin is a separate install from the STK application, you must have the same version of the STK application installed as the version of the RF Channel Modeler plugin.

The RF Channel Modeler installation contains a complementary version of the STK Pro application. The installation package includes the Ansys Orbit Determination Tool Kit (ODTK^®) application, but you need a separate license to use the ODTK application.

Hardware requirements

The RF Channel Modeler plugin requires the same minimum hardware requirements as the STK application, as detailed in the hardware requirements section of the System Requirements for STK topic.

In addition to the hardware requirements listed above, the RF Channel Modeler plugin requires at least one GPU available and enabled in the STK application. Before you set up your analysis configurations, look at the GPU listing and enabling on the RF Channel Modeler tab of the Preferences page, which you can select from the Edit menu. For requirements concerning your GPU, see the latest version of the GPU Accelerator Capabilities document on the Ansys Current Release Support Data page.
