N9072A cdma2000 Measurement Application

Signal analysis

• Complies with 3GPP2 Release A, supports IS-95 or cdmaOne and cdma2000® for forward link and reverse link  
• Forward link and reverse link RF transmitter measurements; analog baseband measurements with PXA BBIQ or MXA BBIQ hardware
• One-button measurements with pass/fail per the standard
• Runs inside PXA, MXA and EXA signal analyzers

Measurements

• Forward and reverse link: Composite rho and EVM, QPSK EVM, code domain, code domain error, frequency error, time offset and power measurements, etc
• Automatic detection of forward link signals from radio configuration (RC) 1 to 5
• Display code domain power (CDP) results in Hadamard or bit-reverse
• Specify chip and PN offsets, and measurement interval from 1 to 32 PCG (1 PCG=1536 chips)

Performance (hardware dependent)

• Composite EVM: up to 1.0 %
• ACLR: up to -83 (-88 dBc typical)
• Power accuracy: up to ±0.23 dB (at 95th percentile)
• Analysis bandwidth: PXA up to 160 MHz; MXA/EXA up to 40 MHz

Other features

• License key upgradeable
• Fixed and transportable license available
• SCPI remote user interface

The cdma2000^®/cdmaOne measurement application is one in a common library of more than 25 measurement applications in the Agilent X-Series, an evolutionary approach to signal analysis that spans instrumentation, measurements and software. Transforming the X-Series signal analyzers into standard-based transmitter testers, the application provides fast one-button RF conformance measurements to help you design, evaluate and manufacture your CDMA RF transmitters. The measurement application is fully standard compliant to the 3GPP2 Release A helping you to check your CDMA design with confidence and support manufacturing with single application covering IS95/cdmaOne, cdma2000 technologies for production.

RF transmitter testing

• Full power and spectrum suite measurements with Pass/Fail indicator: channel power, adjacent channel power, spectrum emission mask (SEM), spurious emissions, occupied bandwidth(OBW) and complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF)
• Quickly identify different data rates on specified channels with Marker selection. Easily de-spread the code channel signal into its symbol level with symbol power and symbol EVM measurement results, even in the presence of multiple code channels.
• Easy to verify overall modulation accuracy of a transmitter with all spreading and scrambling problems by using composite rho measurement
