HP 8921A Option 600, 602, 603
HP 8921A Option 600, 602, 603 CDMA/CDPD 1
Cell Site Test System
Option 600 (or 603) for the HP 8921A adds the HP 83205A Option 001 (or
003) CDMA cellular adapter to the cell site test set to provide testing of
CDMA (IS-95A and IS-97) base station equipment. This system provides
7
signal generation and analysis of QPSK/OQPSK signals. The system measures power in each Walsh-coded signal, code channel timing, and code
channel phase relative to the pilot.
The HP 83205A Option 002 (or 003) CDPD test option quickly and
accurately tests key RF parameters on both the forward-channel transmitter and the reverse-channel receiver. CDPD software, included with
all CDPD hardware, automates transmitter, receiver, and system tests—
making it easy to standardize system maintenance with fast and accurate
test procedures.
HP 8921A Option 600/603 Features Summary
All HP 8921A standard features, plus:
• Measurements of waveform quality “” (rho), frequency er ror,
time offset, and car rier feedthrough
• Code domain power, timing, and phase analysis
• Average power and CDMA channel power measurements
• CDMA QPSK/OQPSK RF source with data buffer and IS-95
reverse link coding

HP 8921A Option 500, 502, 503
HP 8921A Option 500, 502, 503 TDMA/CDPD
Cell Site Test System
The HP 8921A Option 500 (or 503) adds the HP 83204A to the HP 8921A
to provide testing of TDMA (IS-136) base station equipment. This unit
adds π/4 DQPSK signal generation and analysis to the powerful analog
features of the standard HP 8921A. A custom screen provides control of
the TDMA source and provides selection of several measurement
modes, making all test results visible in one place.
The HP 83204A CDPD (Option 002 or 003) test option quickly and
accurately tests key RF parameters on both the forward-channel transmitter and the reverse-channel receiver. CDPD software, included with
all CDPD hardware, automates transmitter, receiver, and system tests—
making it easy to standardize system maintenance with fast and accurate
test procedures.
HP 8921A Option 500 Features Summary
All HP 8921A standard features, plus:
• Measurements of TDMA modulation accuracy, including phase
error, magnitude error, and error vector magnitude (EVM)
• Measurements of I/Q origin offset and frequency error
• Measurements of adjacent and alternate channel power
• TDMA power measurement
• π/4 DQPSK signal generator
• π/4 DQPSK modulation analyzer
• Continuous/pulsed RF power meter
• Bit-error rate meter
• Baseband data source
HP 83204A TDMA/CDPD Cellular Adapter
For those who already own the HP 8921A cell site test set, the HP 83204A
Option 003 TDMA/CDPD cellular adapter can be added to upgrade the
unit to provide TDMA (IS-136) and CDPD tests on cell site equipment.
Once added, all TDMA test features described above are available for
manual use as well as under HP 11807B software control.
HP 83205A CDMA/CDPD Cellular Adapter
For those who already own HP 8921As, the HP 83205A Option 003 CDMA/
CDPD cellular adapter can be added to upgrade the unit to perform the
CDMA/CDPD tests described above for the HP 8921A. Note: Older HP
8921As may require an upgrade for complete CDMA capabilities.
HP 83202A Interface Kits
Order the HP 83202A base station connection kit to receive the necessary cables, connectors, and adapters to connect the HP 8921A to a specific type of base station. Available options include connection kits for
Motorola, General Electric/Nortel, Ericsson, and Lucent base stations.
The 83202A provides everything needed to test base stations with the
HP 8921A. Some connection kits also include an interface/switch box
to more fully automate the testing process.
