Rohde &Schwarz is a preferred supplier to many of the leading mobile equipment manufacturers and is the market leader for mobile radio test sets.

The CMU200 is part of a complete range of mobile radio test equipment, encompassing everything from conformance test systems, to system simulators, turnkey functional board test / final test systems and simple sales counter Go/NoGo testers.

Low cost of ownership

Selecting the CMU 200 is a decision for the future and results in a total cost of ownership which is sure to be among the lowest due to the following factors:

◆ Completely modular design of hard-

ware and software components avoids unnecessary investments right from the start just because there is a possibility of a feature being needed sometime in the future. You only pay for what you need

◆ Should an extension become nec-

essary because your needs widen after some time – the modularity of the CMU200 concept will cater for that. Many extensions to the unit may be installed onsite. You only pay for it when you need it

◆ The concept allows two complete

channels (RF, signalling and evaluation) to be installed in one CMU200 unit

◆ Maximum production output in a

compact 4-rackunit-height package with minimum power dissipation allows compact production space layout

◆ With the CMU200 user interface even

less experienced users will intuitively get it right without the need for extensive training

◆ A new remote interface syntax re-

flects the inherent modularity of this real multimode tester

The base unit with its standard-independent module test provides many general purpose measurement facilities for the development of all kinds of standards within its wide and continuous frequency range. If extended by the relevant options, the CMU200 offers the hardware and software necessary to handle your 3G, “2.5G“ and previous generation testing applications including analog.

Usability

The CMU200 key strengths

The Radio Communication Tester CMU200 brings premium cost effectiveness through a variety of features, with extremely fast measurement speed and very high accuracy being the two most important ones. In addition, the secondary remote addressing of the unit's modular architecture makes for intelligent and autonomous processing of complete measurement tasks and fast control program design.

Greatest accuracy

In a production environment the unit’s high accuracy allows DUTs (Device under Test) to be trimmed for maximum battery lifetime without compromising quality. In the lab, CMU200 enables the development engineer to partly replace conventional, dedicated premium-quality instruments and save desktop space at the same time. High precision measurement correction over the whole frequency and dynamic range as well as compensation for temperature effects in real time are critical factors for achieving the CMU200’s excellent accuracy. The globally standardized Rohde& Schwarz calibration system can check CMU 200 accuracy in a service center close to you or, volume permitting, on your site. A worldwide network of these standardized automatic calibration systems has been implemented in our service centers. Highly accurate and repeatable calibration can be performed wherever you are. Your local Rohde&Schwarz representative offers customized service contracts for the unit. For large scale users of CMU200 a compact level verification system is available,

Greatest speed

The high processing speed is due to extensive use of ProbeDSP™ measurements and innovative remote command processing.

◆ ProbeDSP™ technology

The modular architecture relies on decentralized ProbeDSP™ processing coordinated by a powerful central processor. Like an oscilloscope probe, DSPs dedicated to a specific local data acquisition and evaluation workload help to keep subsystem performance at an uncompromising maximum even if additional modules are fitted to the CMU200 mainframe.

◆ Parallel measurements

Several RX and TX measurements can be performed in parallel. This is achieved by the fast response of the CMU200's modular hardware as well as the high overall processing power of the unit and the avoidance of bottlenecks by dedicated operation of

the ProbeDSP™ technology employed. Examples of parallel operation are measurements of BER and simultaneous Phase/Frequency error, EVM, Magnitude Error and audio or the various spectrum measurements.

◆ Innovative remote processing

The novel secondary addressing mode can address similar functions of each of the CMU200 subsystems (different mobile radio standard) in an almost identical way. Using this type of addressing, new remote test sequences can be programmed by a simple cut and paste operation followed by editing specific commands to adapt the control program to the new application. Secondary addressing is fully SCPI-compliant which means that a subsystem address, for example “WCDMA-FDD“, can be replaced by a string denoting a different subsystem, another mobile radio standard.

GSM today

Since its introduction in the early nineties, the GSM system has won acceptance and undergone an evolution that no one could have foreseen. The applications of the GSM system are numerous and are currently:

◆ GSM400

◆ GSM850

◆ GSM900 including

– P-GSM (primary GSM) – E-GSM (extended GSM) – R-GSM (railway GSM)

◆ GSM1800 (DCS)

◆ GSM1900 (PCS)

Whether the application is in production, service or development, the flexible concept of the CMU 200 from basic RF signal generation, frequency, power and spectrum analyzer measurements for alignment of modules in production or development applications, to an instrument with full GSM-specific signalling in any of the above-mentioned bands, as well as module tests on frequencies anywhere in the range from 10 MHz to 2700 MHz.

Signalling mode

The CMU200 simulates a GSM base station RF interface with the signalling flexibility necessary to test the behaviour of the mobile under the influence of different signalling parameters. These parameters are normally set by the network operator but can be reproduced by the CMU200 for test purposes. The unit supports the latest fast location update and direct paging features.

8 Universal Radio Communication Tester CMU200

Reduced signalling synchronized mode

The CMU200 provides the same functionality as in the Signalling mode, but discards any signalling reaction from the mobile connected. This mode of operation enables both testing of modules that only have layer 1 operation and very fast RF testing in production environments. It can also skip the location update procedure in order to save time.

Non-signalling mode

This mode serves for generating a signal with GSM-specific midambles and modulation in the entire frequency range from 10 MHz to 2.7 GHz. The analyzer offers the same flexibility for GSM-specific transmitter measurements such as

◆ modulation analysis

◆ average and peak burst power

◆ power versus time, power versus slot,

power versus frame

◆ spectrum due to switching /modula-

tion

GSM development

As an all-round tool for GSM development engineers, the CMU 200 is an unsurpassed solution. The RF interface provides four input and output connectors offering a wide range of signal levels for generation and analysis of RF signals. Input only, as well as combined input/ output connectors, can analyze mobiles or modules with a sensitivity down to dBm and up to +47 dBm for the power meter. RF signals can be generated with levels from depending on the selected connector. All measurement tolerances are set by default according to the GSM 11.10 and GSM 05.05 recommendations but may of course be altered to suit individual needs.

Production of mobile phones

Production is a process that calls for cost effectiveness. The CMU200 concept is optimized for IEC/IEEE-bus speed, measurement accuracy and reproducibility as well as cost of ownership. Thanks to the multitasking feature and parallel measurements, previously unobtainable test times can be achieved.

The ability to process BER data and perform transmitter measurements at the same time, allows phase / frequency error, power versus time and average power (PCL accuracy) to be measured during the time-consuming receiver test.

The accuracy and reproducibility ensure correct and steady measurement results and thus contribute to the quality and reliability of the end product.

GSM Evolution – 2.5G

The amount of data transfer in GSM networks is growing rapidly. Multislot applications such as HSCSD or GPRS together with the innovative 8 PSK modulation scheme EDGE are needed to cater for the evolving data traffic. The CMU200 platform is not only able to meet today’s standards and systems but is also designed for the needs of tomorrow.

Multislot

In the future, mobile phones will be able to use several timeslots simultaneously for data transmission and reception to further increase the data rate. The simultaneous transmission and reception of several timeslots (multislot) is the technological

challenge for circuit-switched and packet-switched applications. The following extensions of the GSM single-slot measurements enable maximum flexibility in development, and, due to minimum measurement times, maximum throughput in production.

◆ Individual levels for all time-

slots used in the down link (DL). The CMU generates up to eight timeslots per frame in the down link; each timeslot can be assigned a separate level. The excellent level stability of the CMU200 generators is not impaired by multislot transmission using different levels, and allows the most accurate measurements of receiver sensitivity (BER/DBLER).

◆ Transmitter and receiver meas-

urements are possible on every timeslot used. The new multislot concept allows independent measurements on any timeslot (TS 0-7) and thus covers the current and future multislot combinations without restrictions.

◆ Power-versus-time measure-

ment (graphical display) for up to four timeslots in the UL. The templates of this application are evaluated independently for each timeslot - in line with standards and according to recommendations. Both GMSK- and 8PSK-modulated signals are recognized, and the templates of the relevant

timeslot are set in realtime. Multislot measurements are required for HSCSD and ECSD technologies as well as for GPRS and EGPRS.

Universal Radio Communication Tester CMU200 9

8PSK modulation – EDGE

8PSK is besides multislot a further step towards increasing the mobile radio data rate. By using the available GSM frame structure, the gross data rate is three times that obtained with GMSK. The CMU200 can already perform 8PSK on GSM bursts and analyze them thanks to advanced measurement applications. Error vector magnitude and magnitude error have been added to the range of modulation measurements. New templates for power-versus-time measurements ensure compliance with the specifications, as do the modified tolerances for spectrum measurements. 8PSK will transform HSCSD technologies into ECSD and GPRS into EGPRS. As with all measurements provided by the CMU200, special attention has been given to achieving maximum measurement accuracy and speed for EDGE too.

GPRS/EGPRS

Thanks to the new, future-oriented method of packet data transmission, the radio resources of existing GSM mobile radio networks can be utilized efficiently for data services. As with circuit-switched services, GPRS will also use a combina-

tion of several timeslots (multislots) and higher-level modulation in the form of 8PSK (EGPRS) to push up the data rate. The introduction of packet-oriented transmission and the associated temporary assignment of radio resources require new test concepts. The CMU 200 provides the following test modes:

◆ ETSI Test Mode A: In test mode A, the

mobile is induced to continuously transmit the associated UL timeslots. The CMU 200 can carry out all TX

power ramp measurement of up to four adjacent timeslots simultaneously, or modulation and spectrum measurements.

◆ ETSI Test Mode B: Test mode B cre-

ates a loop back in the telephone so that the mobile retransmits data blocks received from the CMU 200. In addition to the measurments available in the ETSI test mode A, test mode B enables bit and block error rate measurements (BER/DBLER).

Reduced signalling synchronized mode

Extremely fast adjustment and testing of RF parameters during GPRS mobile phone production is ensured by deactivating the GPRS protocol stack. Without using the higher protocol layer (RLC/MAC layer), the CMU 200 synchronizes the mobile (camping), the data channel (PDCH) is then set up directly.

The GPRS and EGPRS data coders are already available to determine Bit Error Rates (BER) and Data Block Error Rates (DBLER).

TDMA in CMU200

CMU200 does it all. The TDMA part takes care of your requirements to cope with this fast progressing mobile technology. The CMU200 concept with its multistandard platform architecture provides for further extensions such as Bluetooth and cdma2000.

TDMA

The wide acceptance of TDMA (IS-136) is based on a very flexible and powerful technology as well as on its compatibility with AMPS, which is widespread and one of the major wireless communication standards. Derived from analog AMPS, the TDMA standard is now ready for a step-by-step evolution into the third generation of mobile technology. This fact shows the need for a test instrument that is flexible enough to cover all future needs as well as the current standards.

For TDMA (IS-136) signalling functionality, the CMU200 requires the versatile signalling unit (CMU-B21) as well as the software option CMU-K27 for the cellular band or CMU-K28 for the PCS band.

Due to the highly user-friendly menu concept, the CMU200 provides quick access to all measurements desired, optimizing handling and consequently efficiency.

Signalling mode

The CMU200 simulates a TDMA basestation RF interface including the signalling protocol so that a mobile can be tested with regard to different signalling parameters. All necessary network and base-station parameters can be set, such as control and traffic channel configuration, neighbouring channels setup etc. You can also generate a MAHO report.

Non-signalling mode

The non-signalling mode is for generating and analyzing TDMA (IS-136) signals within the frequency range from 10 MHz to 2.7 GHz. CMU200 provides TDMA-specific measurements such as:

◆ Power

◆ Modulation

◆ Spectrum

◆ Power versus time

◆ BER

TDMA (IS-136) development

With its great versatility the CMU 200 is the most suitable tool for the development of mobile phones. Four configurable RF connectors are provided to enable flexible signal generation and analysis. The power meter can evaluate signals within a range from 47 dBm, whereas the generator outputs signals from

−130 dBm to +13 dBm. The clearly struc-

tured and user-friendly menu design together with the clear-cut screen layout provides quick access to all features and ensures trouble-free monitoring of the device under test.

−80 dBm to+

Quality assurance

Due to its high measurement repeatability and accuracy, the CMU200 is the right choice to ensure a consistently high quality standard from production. TDMAspecific measurements such as BER, Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) and EVM10, where only the first 10 symbols are taken into account, provide an excellent test platform to guarantee the production of high-quality devices.

Production of mobile phones

The production of mobile phones requires time-efficient and cost-effective means that ensure both high throughput and state-of-the-art accuracy. Thanks to the unique IEC/IEEE-bus concept of the CMU200, these two goals can be easily achieved in your production line. The intelligent handling of the received GPIB commands optimizes the measurement speed for all TDMA-specific measurements. In practice, this will mean drastically enhanced test time and test yield.

Acoustic Measurements

The newly implemented ACELP speech coder is able to encode and decode real audio signals and allows you to use the CMU200 also in real acoustic measurement applications. Equivalent to the GSM implementation of the CMU200 the TDMA speech coder provides analog inputs and outputs and a connector for an external handset. The speech coder requires the hardware option CMU-B52 and can also be combined with the internal Audio Analyzer/Generator option CMU-B41.

TDMA in CMU200

Handoffs

Handoffs are part of the IS-136 specification. Handoffs between PCS and cellular bands as well as from and to AMPS are defined and have to be tested. CMU200 supports handoffs from IS-136 800 MHz to 1900 MHz (inter-band handoff) and vice versa. Handoffs from 1900 MHz or 800 MHz to AMPS and back are also possible (inter-mode handoff) with CMU200.

Switching standards

The flexibility of CMU200 makes for quick and simple switching between two different standards. This is very important for IS-136, which is a dual-mode standard containing a digital (TDMA) and an analog mode (AMPS). The handoff between TDMA and AMPS can be achieved by simply pressing a button. This results in a very versatile test concept to improve the flexibility and throughput of your production line.

In the modulation overview menu, error vector magnitude (EVM), phase error and magnitude error are measured simultaneously and displayed in a numerical table It is possible to choose either EVM, where the whole burst is considered, or EVM10, where only the first ten symbols are taken into account

AMPS in CMU200

AMPS overview

Analog AMPS (advanced mobile phone system) is a standard system for analog cellular telephone service in the United States and is also used in other countries. It is based on the frequency spectrum allocation for cellular service by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1970. Introduced by AT&T in 1983, AMPS became the most widely deployed cellular system in the United States.

AMPS options

Although AMPS is a 1st generation analog standard, a great demand for mobile radio testers covering this standard will continue to exist in the future. Especially in the United States, dual-mode CDMA/ AMPS and TDMA/AMPS phones are very common. By combining the digital standards with analog AMPS, the network operators offer their customers the advantages of the digital standards and ensure nearly 100% coverage in North America. As a consequence, Rohde& Schwarz is extending the range of CMU200 options by introducing analog AMPS in addition to the digital standards TDMA and CDMA. These options add analog AMPS functionality to the CMU200 base unit:

◆ CMU-B21 (versatile link handler)

◆ CMU-B41 (audio generator/analyzer)

◆ CMU-K29 (AMPS test software)

The hardware options CMU-B21 (versatile link handler) and CMU-B41 (audio generator/analyzer) are suited for other standards as well.

AMPS measurements and features

As for other standards, there are two categories of AMPS measurements:

◆ Transmitter tests for assessing the

transmit part of a mobile

◆ Receiver tests for assessing the

receive part of a mobile

◆ AF Level Search routine

◆ Sensitivity Search routine

The AF Level Search routine in the TX test menu allows the user to set the desired frequency deviation of the mobile transmitter at a keystroke, the level of the CMU200 modulation generator is automatically corrected.

The Sensitivity Search routine in the RX test menu automatically searches the receiver input level at which a selectable SINAD of the demodulated signal can still be attained. The following list provides an overview of the most important tests implemented in option CMU-K29.

cdmaOne in CMU200

CDMA overview

Code division multiple access (CDMA) – once a radically new concept in wireless communication – has meanwhile become a well established standard in the world of mobile communication. CDMA has proven its advantages and capabilities and has gained widespread international acceptance.

Instead of using frequencies or timeslots as traditional technologies like TDMA and AMPS do, CDMA uses mathematical codes to transmit and distinguish between multiple wireless conversations. Depending on the level of mobility, CDMA provides 8 to 10 times the capacity of AMPS and 4 to 5 times the capacity of TDMA systems. CDMA can efficiently utilize the spectrum and serve many subscribers without requiring extensive frequency planning.

History

Since the startup of the first commercial CDMA network in Hong Kong in September 1995 CDMA has established itself as a worldwide mobile radio standard. It has not only been successful in its country of origin, the USA, as well as in Korea and Japan, but all over the world. With its still booming growth rates CDMA today is – besides GSM – one of the most important digital 2nd generation mobile radio standards. CDMA is therefore also suited as the leading-edge technology on the way to 3rd generation mobile radio.

cdmaOne options

Taking the current development on the market into account, Rohde& Schwarz has extended the proven modular concept of the CMU200 with cdmaOne functionality. The following options make the CMU 200 a compact radio communication tester for all TIA/EIA-95-based cdmaOne mobile phones:

◆ CMU-B81 (cdmaOne signalling unit)

◆ CMU-K81 (cdmaOne test software for

cellular band)

◆ CMU-K82 (cdmaOne test software for

PCS band)

CMU 200 is also the first choice as a tester for cdmaOne – especially in harsh production environments – because of its outstanding measurement speed, ultrahigh accuracy and unrivalled reliability which is also a result of the innovative ventilation concept. Thanks to the modular concept of CMU200, cdmaOne functionality plus GSM, TDMA (TIA/EIA-136), AMPS and other standards such as Blue- tooth can be implemented in a single unit. Which other radio communication tester can boast such superior features?

cdmaOne functionality

In cdmaOne mode, the tests are based on the TIA/EIA-95A, TSB-74, and J-STD-008 cdmaOne airlink standards. In addition, the cdmaOne option supports also the standards ARIB-T53 and Korean PCS. The tester emulates a code division multiple access base station, makes a call to the mobile, and tests all essential parameters of a cdmaOne mobile station. The tester can measure the following key parameters among other tests:

◆ Power measurements:

– Open-loop time response – Gated output power – Minimum output power –Maximum output power – Side band suppression

◆ Receiver quality measurements:

– Frame error rate (FER) – With additional AWGN generator

to simulate noise caused by other cdmaOne calls at the same frequency

– Predefined configurations for sen-

sitivity and dynamic range

◆ Transmitter quality measurements:

–Waveform quality – Error vector magnitude –Phase error –Magnitude error – Carrier feed through and

I/Q imbalance

– Frequency accuracy

◆ Handoffs:

–RF channel –CDMA inter band – Handoff to AMPS – PN offset – Frame offset

◆ Non signalling Measurements:

–Power –Waveform quality – Frequency error – Carrier feed through – I/Q imbalance

All measurements are implemented according to test specification IS-98C. Parameters and limits are predefined to meet the IS-98C test requirements. This allows easy pass/fail decisions without the need of reconfiguring the test setup.

Graphical representation of transmitter measurements like open loop time response, gated output power and modulation measurements are helpful tools especially in R&D environments.

CDMA know-how

Rohde&Schwarz is not a newcomer in the field of CDMA, but has many years of experience. As early as 1996 Rohde& Schwarz and Tektronix launched a professional radio tester for CDMA mobiles. Worldwide this extremely successful tester sold thousands of units and has undergone permanent enhancement and adaptation to remain state-of-the-art. CMU200 builds on this success and is able to perform cdmaOne mobile station tests using thoroughly proven test and measurement methods, and also offers the possibility of enhancements for future technologies

CMU200 offers a separate menu for handoffs. In addition to handoff targets such as operating status or network to which CMU200 is to switch, the required target parameters as for example channel number etc can be configured. This enables handoff to AMPS as well as handoff to and from the voice loopback mode

CDMA2000-1X im CMU

CDMA2000 overview

CDMA2000 arose from the further development of cdmaOne (TIA/EIA-95) and is an enormous step towards 3G. Besides higher data rates and considerably improved efficiency, CDMA2000 is particularly noteworthy for its downward compatibility to cdmaOne. Nine different configurations (radio configurations RC1 to RC9) in the forward link and six radio configurations in the reverse link define the different connections which are specified in the IS-2000 standard.

◆ RC1 and RC2 define cdmaOne con-

nections for rate set 1 and rate set 2

◆ RC3 to RC5 in the forward link (or RC3

to RC4 in the reverse link) define CDMA2000 connections for spreading rate 1 (CDMA2000-1X)

◆ RC6 to RC9 in the forward link (or RC5

to RC6 in the reverse link) are CDMA2000 connections for spreading rate 3 (CDMA2000-3X) only.

Compared to cdmaOne, CDMA2000-1X doubles the capacity for pure voice transmission and provides a maximum packet data rate of 307 kps on a single 1.25 MHz carrier. CDMA2000-1X is a recognized IMT-2000 3G standard, already successfully established in Korea – and will soon be implemented in Japan, the USA, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. Its application in Eastern Europe is planned as well.

CMU CDMA2000-1X options:

The CDMA2000 standards will be implemented in conjunction with our proven cooperation partner Tektronix. By supporting the CDMA2000 standard, Rohde&Schwarz consequently enhances the functionality of the CMU200 multimode platform.

The central component of the CDMA2000-1X option is the signalling Unit CMU-B83, which is a prerequisite for enhancing the CDMA2000-1X functionality in the CMU200. The CMU-B83 is designed for maximum conformity to the standard. The CMU-B83, of course, does not only support pure CDMA2000-1X high-speed data links, but also enables the links of the previous TIA/EIA-95A/B standards.

All tests, which could be performed with the cdmaOne option in conjunction with the CMU-B81, are also available in the new CDMA2000 option. The CMU-U83 upgrade option is a cost-efficient upgrade solution from Rohde&Schwarz for customers who have already acquired the cdmaOne option in the CMU200.

CDMA2000-1X is used in diverse frequency ranges. The standard currently prescribes ten different band classes all of which are supported by the CMU200 with its universal hardware concept.

The following options are available for the CDMA2000-1X:

◆ CMU-B83: CDMA2000 signalling unit

(essential)

◆ CMU-U83: cost-efficient hardware

upgrade from CMU-B81 to CMU-B83

◆ CMU-U65: 3G DDC (additional DSP for

the digital board, essential)

◆ CMU-K83: CDMA2000-1X software

for the 450 MHz band (band class 5)

◆ CMU-K84: CDMA2000-1X software

for cellular bands

◆ CMU-K85: CDMA2000-1X software

for PCS bands

◆ CMU-K86: CDMA2000-1X software

for IMT2000 band (band class 6)

The universal hardware and software concept of the CMU200 represents the optimum solution for the future development and challenges of the CDMA standard over the next few years.

CDMA2000-1X functionality

The similarities with cdmaOne (same physical conditions and downward compatibility), makes the CDMA2000-1X T&M concept very similar to that of cdmaOne. There are, however, major differences as to the protocols.

The CMU200 supports connections in all radio configurations defined for the CDMA2000-1X, i.e. TIA/EIA-95 combinations as well as the usual CDMA2000-1X high-speed connections.

Code Domain Power is a new and highly important measurement for mobile phones in CDMA2000. Since several code channels are now transmitted simultaneously in the reverse link, it is necessary to check whether the power distribution of the different channels complies with the test specification (TIA/EIA-IS-98-D) for CDMA2000. The measurement technology in the CMU200 is based on the ProbeDSP high-speed measurement of the code domain power. The emphasis is on fast measurement technology and clear and concise representation.

Of course, the CMU200 also supports the requirements placed on the gpsOne test application; the CMU200 meets the high demands for frequency and phase accuracy.

The CDMA2000-1X implementation in the CMU200 is based on the TIA/EIA IS-2000 Rev. 0 standard; the measurements comply with the TIA/EIA IS-98-D standard.

settings can be configured in user-friendly menus.

As with all mobile radio networks supported by the CMU 200, two different measurement modes are basically available:

On the one hand, there are tests in the “non-signalling-mode”, which permit an analysis of the mobile without registration in the base station and without actual call setup. For this purpose, the CMU generates a base station signal with all the physical channels required, which are user-configurable. This measurement mode complies in particular with the demands for high measurement speed in production lines.

Bluetooth™ measurements in CMU200

General

The CMU200 with the Bluetooth option can set up a Bluetooth connection to a Device Under Test (DUT) via the RF interface. The CMU200 switches the DUT into test mode and performs a number of basic RF measurements (TX and RX). According to the Bluetooth Test Mode Specification the DUT has to be locally enabled for the test mode operation. All measurements can be performed in hopping-, reduced hopping- or non-hoppingmode. The CMU200 supports measurements using DH1, DH3 and DH5 packets.

The coupling between the CMU200 and the DUT can be either via a cable or a coupler, depending on the implementation of the DUT.

Applications

The Universal Radio Communication Tester CMU200 with the Bluetooth option is the ideal instrument for production, development and maintenance of any kind of devices with integrated Bluetooth wireless technology.

The CMU200 can also be equipped with additional options for cellular standards like GSM, AMPS, TDMA or CDMA. Therefore the CMU200 is an ideal tester for mobile phone production, as it offers measurements in line with Bluetooth wireless technology and cellular standards in one instrument. With a further extension, which is already in development, the CMU200 will be able to run Bluetooth measurements and cellular measurements simultaneously. This means the total test time for a mobile phone will not be increased by the Blue- tooth tests because the two types of tests can take place at the same time.

Parallel operation for high measurement speed

Due to the high measurement speed and large memory capacity of the CMU, transmitter and receiver measurements can be carried out in parallel. When measurements are performed during frequency

hopping, a great test depth is rapidly attained. Only a few seconds are required between call setup, transmitter and receiver measurements and call detach.

Many convenient measurement functions

The CMU offers a great number of statistical monitoring and measurement functions. It is possible, for instance, to define individual tolerances for each measured value and to stop a measurement sequence after a certain number of measurements or when a tolerance has been exceeded. Besides the common traces for power and modulation versus time, averaged minimum or maximum traces can also be displayed over a userdefined number of packages.

Compliance with existing Bluetooth standards

The CMU200 is compliant with the Bluetooth core specifications Ver. 1.0 B and

1.1. The Bluetooth Test Mode (Core Spec. Part I:1) is implemented with all commands needed to perform the TX/RX measurements.

The Bluetooth RF Test Specification Ver. 0.9 describes RF test cases for the Bluetooth qualification process. Rohde&Schwarz offers the Test System TS8960 for Bluetooth qualification tests, which is fully compliant with the RF Test

Specification. Although the CMU 200 was not designed for qualification tests, the RF test specification was taken as a guideline for the implementation of the CMU200´s Bluetooth measurements.

Signalling

Setting up a Bluetooth connection

The CMU200 acts as the master of a Bluetooth piconet, the DUT as a slave. The

CMU200 is able to perform the inquiry procedure for the identification of all Bluetooth devices within range of the CMU200. All devices found are listed on the display and one of them can be selected for the paging procedure. The CMU 200 then establishes the connection to the DUT and switches it into test mode operation.

The inquiry procedure can be skipped, if the Bluetooth device address of the DUT is already known. In this case a shorter setup time for the connection can be achieved. This is important for production tests of Bluetooth devices to increase the maximum throughput of a production line.

Signalling information from the DUT

The CMU200 is able to display a variety of information which is received from the DUT (eg device name, version numbers, service class, supported features).

TX measurements

The current measurement values for each parameter are displayed on the CMU200 screen. Additionally average, maximum and minimum values are displayed as a result of a statistical evaluation of a settable number of Bluetooth packets (bursts).

Power measurements

Measurement parameters:

◆ Nominal power (measured as the part

of the burst starting at the detected 1st bit of the preamble (bit 0) to the last bit of the burst)

◆ Peak power (shows the highest pow-

erlevel within a burst)

◆ Leakage power (measured within de-

fined areas before and after the burst)

Timing measurements

Measurement parameter:

◆ Packet alignment (distance between

ideal master receiver slot and detect-

ed bit 0 of the received burst) This measurement is displayed on the “Power“ screen.

Modulation measurements

Measurement parameters:

◆ Frequency accuracy (difference be-

tween measured frequency and in-

◆ Frequency drift (difference between

the frequency at the start of the packet and the frequency in the payload)

◆ Maximum drift rate (maximum drift

rate anywhere within the packet payload)

◆ Average, maximum and minimum fre-

quency deviation (calculated over the packet payload)

For RX measurements, the built-in signal generator generates a selectable bit sequence, which is looped back in the DUT and demodulated and processed by the CMU200 again. The TX level of the CMU200 can be adjusted for this measurement. The BER application supports defining up to five test programs. Each program can independently set settings such as control parameters, limits, repetition or statistical cycles.

WCDMA in CMU200

The need for higher data rates is the trend in our information-oriented society in the new millennium. The enhancement of mobile phones takes this need into account on the way to the next generation of wireless communication. How to cover these future challenges? Driven by ideas of the first and second generation (SIM, global roaming, military CDMA technology, data services), WCDMA will take all of these fundamentals to unprecedented levels and add new applications and higher data security. Derived from Asian, American and European ideas, "3G" is getting ready to be the mobile solution for future needs as well as the current applications.

WCDMA

Depending on the level of mobility, WCDMA provides several times the capacity of 2nd generation CDMA or TDMA systems.

Thanks to the modular concept of CMU200, WCDMA functionality plus e.g. GSM, TDMA (TIA/EIA-136), AMPS and other wireless standards such as Bluetooth, can be implemented in a single unit at the same time.

WCDMA FDD functionality

The tests are based on the 3GPP/FDD, release 99 WCDMA radio link standards version June 2001. The CMU200 can easily be upgraded to different functionality steps by means of hardware and software options for non-signalling Tx/Rx measurements and signalling measurements. All measurements are following the 3GPP specification TS 34.121. This is especially interesting due to the variety of different filter bandwidth and shapes for ACLR, SEM, MIN power, MAX power, etc that are to be used according to the specifica-

tion. Due to the highly user-friendly menu concept, the CMU200 provides quick access to all measurements desired and optimizes handling and consequently efficiency.

Non-signalling mode

The non-signalling mode is for generating and analyzing WCDMA (3GPP/FDD) signals within the frequency range from of the CMU200 base unit. CMU200 provides WCDMA-specific TX measurements on signals with up to 6 DPDCHs such as

◆ ACLR (Adjacent Channel Leakage

Power Ratio): Two measurement modes, Filter (Bargraph) and FFT (cont. spectrum) method: Absolute or relative readout

◆ OBW (Occupied Bandwidth)

◆ SEM (Spectrum Emission Mask)

◆ CDP (Code Domain Power): CDP vs all

codes, CDP vs DCH channels, RHO vs all codes, RHO vs DCH channels. All measurements in relative or absolute readout, splitted into I and Q parts

◆ Modulation (for 3GPP or general

QPSK): EVM (Error Vector Magnitude), Magnitude Error, Phase Error, Frequency Error, I/Q Offset, I/Q Imbalance, Peak Code Domain Error, RHO (Waveform Quality)

◆

Power: MAX, MIN, OFF (UE test mode)

◆ Autoranging for received UE signal

The non-signalling mode allows tests of all essential RF parameters of the connected UE (User Equipment). The measurements work in unsynchronized mode. No time consuming call setup is done to evaluate UE performance using these measurements.

RX measurements

A synchronization (but still no call setup) is needed for the RX evaluation and some additional TX measurements, such as

◆ Inner Loop Power Control with TPC

commands: TPC stepping measurement (UE receives TPC commands from CMU200 generator)

◆

Receiver Quality: BER, BLER, (with UEassisted evaluation, no RF loopback)

The generated channels and functions available are

◆ P-CPICH/P-SCH/S-SCH/P-CCPCH/

DPCCH/DPDCH

◆ TPC profiles

In conjunction with the Rohde&Schwarz Baseband Fading Simulator ABFS and the planned option CMU-B17, conditions of fading may be simulated and evaluated with CMU200.

FDD signalling mode (planned)

The CMU200 simulates a WCDMA basestation RF interface including the signalling protocol so that a mobile can be tested with regard to different signalling parameters. All necessary network and Node B (base station) parameters such as control and data channel configurations ca n b e s et. This mo de wi ll be su ppor ted i n a next step. In addition to the non-signalling tests it provides features such as

◆

Power: MAX, MIN, OFF (UE signalling mode)

◆

Power control: ON/OFF time mask, open loop power control, inner loop power control (3GPP mode)

◆ Receiver Quality: BER, BLER, (with RF

loopback)

◆ Call setup and release / paging

30 Universal Radio Communication Tester CMU200

◆ Test mode connection

Signalling test allows tests in an environment closer to a real live network. However in a production context they might not be absolutely neccessary.

WCDMA development

With its great versatility the CMU200 is also a suitable tool for the development of mobile phones. Four configurable RF connectors are provided to enable flexible signal levels. The clearly structured and userfriendly menu design together with the clear-cut screen layout provides quick access to all features and ensures trouble-free monitoring of the device under test. The tester can be switched between 3GPP and general QPSK modes to increase the usability with DUTs under development.

Quality assurance

Due to its high measurement repeatability and accuracy, the CMU200 is the right choice to ensure a consistently high quality standard of all your deliveries. WCDMA-specific measurements such as BER, EVM , and full implementation of complimentary (i.e. ACLR- and OBW-) measurements provide an excellent test platform to guarantee

the production of high-quality devices.

Production of mobile phones

The production of mobile phones requires time-efficient and cost-effective means that ensure both high throughput and state-of-the-art accuracy. Thanks to the unique IEC/IEEE-bus concept of the CMU200, these two goals can be easily achieved in your production line. The intelligent handling of the received GPIB commands thoroughly optimizes the measurement speed for WCDMA-specific measurements. In practice, this will mean reduced test time and enhanced test yield.

Switching standards

ACLR measurements are available using two differing measurement methods and corresponding displays. In this screenshot, the ACLR is measured using the filter method to obtain results for 5 channels. The scalar display except center channel (0MHz) may be switched to absolute readout as well

The flexibility of CMU200 makes for quick and simple switching between different standards. This is very important for e.g.
