Simulation Methodology for LiDAR-On-Chip

Synopsys’ LiDAR-on-chip solution leverages integrated photonic technology to optimize Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems, offering a compact, cost-effective alternative to bulky traditional LiDAR devices. By using chip-scale integration, these systems eliminate moving parts, ensuring durability and scalability. Synopsys’ simulation tools, such as FemSIM, BeamPROP, and FullWAVE, are essential for designing and optimizing on-chip LiDAR components, improving efficiency in beam steering, minimizing losses, and enhancing optical power output. This approach not only speeds up design but also reduces development costs, facilitating faster commercialization of LiDAR technology for automotive and other industries.
