PSA Series Options 211, 212, and 213 TD-SCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA/8PSK Measurement Personalities

• TD-SCDMA standard-based measurements with HSDPA/HSUPA/8PSK capability.
• Full suite of power measurements.
• Complete modulation analysis and modulation accuracy measurements.
• Residual EVM: < 1% (nominal).
• Code domain power accuracy: +/- 0.3 dB (nominal).

Agilent PSA Series high-performance spectrum analyzers perform measurements on TD-SCDMA signals for both uplink and downlink. The measurement personalities, based on the 3GPP TD-SCDMA standard UTRA TDD 1.28 Mcps option, provide power and modulation-domain measurements, including HSDPA/HSUPA/8PSK signals, with pass/fail indication for conformance verification. These limits can be user-defined to meet custom pass/fail requirements.

PSA Option 211 TD-SCDMA measurement personality easily makes power measurements such as transmit power, power versus time, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel power, spectrum emission mask, and more.

PSA Option 212 performs modulation analysis measurements. By quickly quantifying modulation quality, engineers can troubleshoot designs and find the root cause of error. Many results and views are available, such as composite EVM, constellation diagram, code domain power, code domain error, I/Q errors including magnitude and phase error views, and a numeric results summary.

PSA Option 213 adds HSDPA/HSUPA/8PSK capability to Option 212. All the analysis capabilities of Option 212 are available, including 16QAM and 8PSK constellation diagram results, allowing troubleshooting of HS-PDSCH and associated channels.

This option can be added as a product upgrade.
