R2025b delivers quality and stability improvements, building on the new features introduced in R2025a.
Learn more about what’s new in R2025b: bit.ly/3sNGWfo
R2025a:
New Products:
• MATLAB Copilot – Create, refine, and debug MATLAB code with generative AI.
Major Updates:
• Antenna Toolbox – Enhance AIAntenna functionality to support scalar port and field analyses; optimize antennas using the AI-based SADEA API.
• MATLAB Coder – Generate code with the new MATLAB Coder app; improve code performance through automatic parallelization.
• Phased Array System Toolbox – Model RIS with controllable array elements; perform bistatic localization using new TOA/TDOA position estimations; design high-fidelity RF impairment models with cascaded components.
• Radar Toolbox – Explore new parallelizable workflows for cooperative and non-cooperative simulation of bistatic and multistatic radars.
• Risk Management Toolbox – Validate credit models with a suite of validation metrics; backtest historical and Monte Carlo VaR or ES models with new ES backtest support for empirical distributions.
• RoadRunner – Programmatically create road scenes with a new API; improve productivity with snappable templates; add elevated intersections and tunnels.
• RoadRunner Scenario – Programmatically create rautomotive scenarios with a new API.
Sensor Fusion and Tracking Toolbox – Import and visualize tracking truth data using the Tracking Data Importer app; simplify multi-object tracker tuning with truth data and standard specifications for targets and sensors.
Release Highlights:
• MATLAB Desktop – Use sidebars to access desktop tools (panels); customize desktop layouts to view only the tools needed for specific tasks and workflows.
• New Simulink Scope – View signal data with an improved UI and multithreaded performance; connect with the Simulation Data Inspector; dock multiple scopes together.
MATLAB:
• Feedback – Use the feedback button in the toolstrip to provide feedback on MATLAB, including the new desktop.
• Themes – Use a light or dark theme to change colors for the MATLAB desktop, figures, and apps.
• Coding and Software Development Panels – Use new side panels for high-frequency coding and software development tasks: Debugger, Project, Source Control, Test Browser, Code Issues, and Code Outline.
• Figure Container – Manage figures and tools within a single container; tile, resize, and group figures interactively; customize and annotate figures using the toolstrip.
• Desktop Search – Use desktop search to directly launch apps, access settings, and search help, examples, and MATLAB Answers.
• Variables Editor – View sparklines and summary statistics for data in tables or timetables; create linked plots synchronized with workspace variables.
• Live Editor File Format – Save live scripts using a plain text file format to support integration with source control systems.
• Accessibility – Use a screen reader to interact with the Command Window, navigate the desktop, and create and edit MATLAB code files.
Simulink:
• Layout-as-You-Go – Straighten signal lines while moving or resizing blocks.
• New UI for MATLAB Projects – View and analyze projects in a simplified, more compact interface around source control, dependency analysis, and model comparison.
• Local Solvers for Model References – Improve simulation speed and accuracy by setting an independent variable or fixed-step solvers in referenced models.
• Fast Restart for Rapid Accelerator – Run multiple rapid accelerator simulations faster with fast restart.
• Python Code Block – Bring Python® code into Simulink.
