MX370x series software
The MG3700A Vector Signal Generator (hereafter referred to as “MG3700A”) is a signal generator that integrates
a 160-MHz high-speed ARB baseband generator.With features that include a broadband vector modulation
bandwidth and large-capacity ARB memory, it supports digital modulation signals for a variety of communication
systems.The MG3700A provides optimal performance for generating signals for new wireless communications
in advancing broadband technology, as well as for major mobile telecommunication systems such as mobile
phones and wireless LANs.
Since the standard MG3700A comes equipped with an ARB generator,modulation signals can be output simply
by selecting a waveform pattern that conforms to each supported communication system.The following four
categories of waveform patterns are available for the MG3700A:
Standard waveform patterns
•
Waveform patterns generated by the optional waveform pattern option (Model: MX3700xxA)
•
Waveform patterns generated by the optional waveform generation software IQproducer (Model: MX3701xxA)
•
Waveform patterns converted from data generated by commonly-used signal generation software, so
•
as to be available for the MG3700A.
Each waveform category above contains multiple waveform pattern files in which parameters conforming to
each communication system are set in advance.The default waveform patterns are saved on the MG3700A hard
disk, allowing users to make free use of them. In addition, optional waveform patterns are also available.
The waveform generation software IQproducer is provided with the system to support various communication
methods. Parameter setting for the waveform data of a corresponding communication system can generate an
arbitrary waveform pattern file that can be used by MG3700A.
MG3700A can output signals by choosing a waveform pattern when the generated arbitrary waveform pattern
file is downloaded to MG3700A via LAN or a CompactFlash (CF) card.
Furthermore, an IQ sample file in ASCII format, generated by common EDA (Electronic Design Automation)
software such as MATLAB
arbitrarily generate a custom waveform pattern file.

■W-CDMA waveform pattern:
The W-CDMA waveform patterns listed below are provided on
the MG3700A internal hard disk as standard (see the next page
for details):
Uplink/downlink W-CDMA modulation signals conforming to the
3GPP (FDD) standards can be output simply by selecting a
waveform pattern loaded from the MG3700A internal hard disk
to the large-capacity ARB memory, without setting any complex
3GPP-compliant parameters.
The adjacent channel leakage power ratio of a Vector Signal Generator is an important factor in device distortion testing and receiver
interference testing.

■AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) Supports Dynamic Range Test
When performing the receiver dynamic range test specified by 3GPP, AWGN with a W-CDMA modulation signal is required.
Either of the AWGN waveform patterns AWGN_3_84MHz_x2 or AWGN_3_84MHz_x1_5, which are stored on the MG3700A internal
hard disk, can be used for an AWGN signal.
Since a single MG3700A can add a W-CDMA uplink modulation signal and AWGN signal internally and output them as a combined
signal, it is useful for a simple dynamic range test for base station receivers.

The signals for testing the receiver and transmitter of the
CDMA2000 1xEV-DO access network (base station) and
access terminal (mobile station), which are specified in 3GPP2,
can be output by selecting one of these CDMA2000 1xEV-DO
waveform patterns. Thirteen forward and ten reverse data rate
waveform patterns are available.
When multi-carrier signals, mixed signals of idle and active,
and/or multi-user signals are required, parameter setting and
waveform pattern generation are available using the optional
MX370103A CDMA2000 1xEV-DO IQproducer.

are traffic, and all the other channels (e.g., Sync) are unsupported; it is necessary to calculate the PER by controlling the AT
using an external controller.

■AWGN Supports Dynamic Range Test
(AWGN: Additive White Gaussian Noise)
When performing the receiver dynamic range test specified by
3GPP2, a 1xEV-DO modulation signal with AWGN is required.
Either of the AWGN waveform patterns AWGN_1.23MHz_x2 or

internal hard disk, can be used for an AWGN signal.
Since a single MG3700A can add a CDMA2000 uplink
modulation signal and an AWGN signal internally and output
them as a combined signal, it is useful for a simple dynamic
range test for an AN receiver.

AWGN waveform pattern
Standard
■With the waveform combine function, a single MG3700A outputs a signal that is the addition (such
as modulation signal + AWGN) of the wanted signal and interfering signal:
The MG3700A has ARB memory that consists of two memory areas, each allowing one waveform pattern to be set. The addition of
the signals from the two memories, as well as the signal for either one, can be output.
For example, if a wanted signal (W-CDMA, CDMA2000) waveform pattern is selected for one memory and an interfering signal
(AWGN) waveform pattern for the other, a signal that is the addition of the wanted signal and interfering signal (AWGN) shown in the
upper figures below can be output with a single MG3700A.
Also, if a modulation signal is selected as the interfering signal, the addition of the wanted signal and interfering signal (modulation
signal) shown in the lower figures below can also be output with a single MG3700A.
Furthermore, the accuracy of the level ratio is superior since the S/N adjustment and calculation are performed by digital processing.

The MX370101A HSDPAIQproducer is GUI-driven PC application software used to set up the parameters and generate
waveform patterns according to the 3GPP HSDPA
(Uplink/Downlink) system. The generated waveform patterns
are downloaded to the MG3700A, and used to output HSDPA
Modulation baseband signals and RF signals with the ARB
generation function of the MG3700A.
In addition, it is possible to set the parameters specified in
TS25.212 with respect to HS-PDSCH and HS-DPCCH. The
signals in various states can be generated by changing the
transmitting process freely.
In addition, the Downlink Easy Setup function provides typical
items and parameters so that the settings can be executed
simply by selecting items/parameters.
