Product Description
This chapter briefly describes the CMD 80 Digital Radiocommunication Tester
and explains how to operate the tester for the first time.
The standard tester tests mobile radiotelephones using CDMA (Code Division
Multiple Access) technology. Two options (analog and TDMA) are available to
support testing of additional wireless technologies.
H The Analog option (Option B82) allows you to test analog mobile radiotele-
phones or test the analog operation of a dual-mode radiotelephones.
H The TDMA option (Option B84) allows you to test mobile radiotelephones
using IS-136-A TDMA (Time Domain Multiple Access) technology.
CDMA Description
In CDMA mode, the tester tests are based on the EIA IS-95, EIA IS-95A,
TSB-74, and J-STD-008 CDMA standards. The tester emulates a Code Division
Multiple Access (CDMA) base station, makes a call to the mobile, and tests for
all essential characteristics of a CDMA mobile station. The tester can measure
the following key parameters:
H FER service option 2 or 9
H Frame errors
H Waveform quality
H Error vector magnitude
H Phase error
H Magnitude error
H Carrier feedthrough
H Frequency accuracy
H Power measurements
H Base station signaling for mobile testing
