iBWAVE DESIGN ENTERPRISE
Edge Calculation UX Improvements
We’ve improved the user experience and management of calculation labels for the Edge Calculation Engine. This feature allows you to design your network from the edge without modeling the entire head-end, simplifying and speeding up preliminary designs.
Label management is now more user-friendly, enabling quick access to relevant data and boosting design efficiency.
Multi-Carrier Small Cell Templates
You can significantly simplify configuring Multi-Carrier Small Cell Signal Sources with much-improved user experience through new Multi-Carrier Templates. This feature builds on the previously introduced Multi-Carrier Signal Sources that support flexible system, band and bandwidth allocation in a single signal source component (MO-RAN Deployment).
With Multi-Carrier Templates, you can automatically:
- Select systems to deploy Wireless Services in the projects
- Configure system properties from the source properties grid
- Connect to DAS or use existing antennas
- Set Power/channel with desired power share per carrier
- Define port associations for all systems and MIMO paths
- And more!
You can save these templates with all configurations and reuse them across projects, including creating templates with OEM specifications, saving you time and effort on your projects.

Added Stencils for Outdoor Modelling and Material Properties Enhancements
In the latest release, we’ve added new sample stencils for outdoor modeling, including vehicles, vegetation, and poles. Stencils now also retain all material RF and cosmetic properties and textures, so you don’t need to have the same materials in your components database to use them.
GPU Accelerated Predictions
You can now reach up to 5X faster predictions compared to release 19.2, allowing you to rapidly optimize your design when building and predicting complex projects on a GPU! This will not only empower you to design wireless networks faster, but also make your network designs even more accurate by making optimizations less time-consuming.
When using GPU Acceleration, performance will depend highly on the selection of the GPU and CPU pairing in the system. While the GPU performs rapid mathematical computations, its performance is constrained by the capabilities of the CPU, SSD, and RAM. Following GPU acceleration, the remaining prediction steps remain reliant on the CPU.
With the optimal GPU and CPU pairing and PC setup, you can potentially save even tens of hours on each prediction run on very complex projects with multiple wireless services, such as stadiums, airports, or other large buildings. The time savings tend to scale with the project's size, complexity, and number of wireless services.
Wireless Service Template Enhancements
Streamline and expedite the design process for multi-carrier projects with our latest release's wireless service template enhancements! Now, you can save the Wireless Service Template along with project settings, eliminating the hassle of recreating lengthy service lists. Additionally, you can effortlessly modify templates by adding or removing services for future projects.
Ultra-High Fiber Support
To better support ultra-high fiber components, fiber components now support higher port and strand limits. Parts now support up to 576 optical ports and up to 6912 fiber strands.
Global Stencil Library Privileges
Unity Administrators can now set access privileges for the Global Stencil Library. Users can be set with either no access, read-only access, or read-write access through the Unity admin tools.

Under ‘Storage Privileges’, admins can set the following:
- Public Read Access: grants read-only access to the Global Stencil Library. Users can view and use stencils in the Design/FiberPass Desktop application.
- Public Write Access: grants read-write access to the Global Stencil Library. Users can add, delete, view, and use stencils in the Design/FiberPass Desktop application.
- Private Access: privilege reserved for future use.
- If none of the above access options are enabled, users in this role will be denied access to view or use stencils in the Design/FiberPass Desktop application.
