    B.2. Carrier Leakage Frequency This chapter explains the carrier leakage frequency setting for MT8821C intra-band contiguous component carrier (CC) measurement. To remove the effects of carrier leakage and correctly measure Transmit Modulation for CA (EVM, Carrier Leakage and In-band Emissions) as specified in 3GPP TS36.521-1 6.5.2A, the carrier leakage position must be first configured accordingly before performing intra-band contiguous CC measurements.
  • Page 387 B.2.2. TX Measurement Parameter The user can set the Carrier Leakage Position using the GUI by configuring Carrier Leakage Frequency under TX Measurement Parameters as shown in Figure B.2.2-1. Fig. B.2.2-1. TX Measurement Parameter – Carrier Leakage Frequency Setting The following Remote Command can also be used to configure Carrier Leakage Frequency. Command Argument Response...

    B.3. About Optimization of the TCP Throughput using iperf To obtain the best effort result in bidirectional communication like TCP, the window size from RTT(Round Trip Time) must be optimized. To determine the TCP/IP window size, clarify RTT using PING (although the result is not accurate). The RTT depends on the your test environment, so the RTT must be checked for each test environments.
  • Page 389 ・Throughput is unstable(This situation, TCP window size too large) Reduce TCP window size in steps of 10k Example: iperf -c -192.168.20.11 -B 192.168.20.10 -w 975k -i -> iperf -c -192.168.20.11 -B 192.168.20.10 -w 965k -i 1...
