scope:
This technical report is the second in a series aimed at establishing a common methodology for FC system signal modeling. This technical report supersedes FCSM and contains all the information in FCSM deemed desirable to carry forward with appropriate updates.
Using the methodology described in this document, signals in FC systems may be modeled and simulated accurately and consistently. These methodologies may also apply to other transports that use high-speed serial communication schemes. This technical report establishes the framework for the exchange of signal performance information among component suppliers, system integrators, and those carrying-out simulations. This report defines the acceptable methods for extracting the electrical and signal performance attributes of the constituent parts of an FC transmitter-receiver
The objectives of this technical report are to:
a) define a set of elemental components for FCSM-2 purposes
b) define a set of composite components for FCSM-2 purposes
c) define the physical interface boundaries of the component sets
d) define the modeling parameters of the component sets
e) define a methodology for integrating the component models into a system model
f) define requirements for transportable S-parameters files
g) define the framework for assignment of simulation accuracy components
h) define the major points of interest for signal modeling
i) define the classes of signal modeling purposes and uses
j) define the general use of scaling in modeling
k) define general methods for creating models
l) define the general validation and correlation methods
m) define the relationship between constituents of the modeling environment
m) define the relationship between constituents of the modeling environment
