This feature allows the AWGN C/N to be set using the E
at the receiver or signal to noise ratio per bit) form. This requires the carrier bit rate to be known.
Refer to Figure 9- 4, "Eb/No Carrier Bit Equation."

Enables diagnostic control of
additive noise, so that only the
noise, only the carrier, or the
sum of both the noise and the
carrier are output from the
internal baseband generator.
With the ALC off, this feature
enables direct measurement of
the carrier or the noise
contributions independently
from the total power. The system
still behaves as if both the noise
and the carrier are present on
the output when it comes to
determining the Auto Modulation
Attenuation and the RMS level
for RMS Power Search.
