Embodiments are directed to representing radio frequency (RF) signals in a visualization using particle bursts. In one scenario, a computer system instantiates RF signal sources in a virtualization, where each RF signal source is configured to emit RF signals. The computer system then generates a stream of particle bursts to represent at least one of the emitted RF signals, and provides a visualization that shows the instantiated RF signal sources along with the generated particle bursts representing the emitted RF signals. In some cases, the visualization may be used to illustrate an anti-access, aerial denial (A2AD) environment. In other cases, the visualization may be used to illustrate network communications using particles, where each particle represents network data packets.

RF signal representation using particle bursts

Embodiments are directed to visualizing electromagnetic (EM) particle emissions in a computer-generated virtual environment. In one scenario, a computer system accesses portions of data representing EM particle emissions emitted by a virtualized EM particle emitter. The computer system generates a particle visualization that includes at least a portion of the EM particle emissions being emitted from the virtualized EM particle emitter within the virtual environment. The particle visualization includes an indication of the EM particle emissions' interactions with other virtual or non-virtual elements in the virtual environment. The computer system then presents the generated particle visualization in the computer-generated virtual environment. In some cases, the computer system further receives user input intended to interact with virtual elements within the virtual environment. In response, the computer system updates the generated particle visualization based on the user's interaction with the virtual element.
