IQ Waveform (Time Domain) Measurement
This section explains how to make a waveform (time domain) measurement on a
W-CDMA signal. (A signal generator is used to simulate a base station.) The
measurement of I and Q modulated waveforms in the time domain disclose the
voltages which comprise the complex modulated waveform of a digital signal.
Step
1 Set up the signal source.
2 Connect the source RF
OUTPUT to the analyzer
RF INPUT as shown.
3 Select the mode.
4 Preset the analyzer.
5 Set the measurement
center frequency.
6 Set the measurement
span/analysis bandwidth.
7 Enable the IQ Waveform
measurement.
8 View the RF envelope.
Action
a. Set the mode to W-CDMA
3GPP with 4 carriers.
b. Set the frequency of the
signal source to 1.0 GHz.
c. Set the source amplitude to
-10 dBm.
