When the WCDMA signal only contains on e c han ne l, t he s i gna l c an be measured in the vec tor ana l yzer mode of the analyzer. Since each channel is QPSK-modulated, the total signal is QPSK-modulated also if only one channel is transmitted. The measurement of the QPSK signal allo ws, for instance, to determine the frequency offset between DUT and analyzer. This may be useful for troubles hooting, e.g. if synchron ization is not possibl e during the code domain power measurement.

Frequency error The f requenc y error displa y denotes the f requenc y off set

The frequency offset can be corrected by tuning the transmitter or center frequency of the analyzer. It is recommended to synchronize the analyzer and t he DUT via the refer ence input of the analyzer.

Setting: Synchronizing the reference frequencies

The synchronization of the reference oscillators both of the DUT and analyzer strongly reduces the measured frequency error.

Measurement on R&S FSIQ:
A CDP measurement on the analyzer is still possible with a frequency error of up to approx. 1 kHz. Up to 1 kHz, a frequency error causes no apparent difference in m easurem ent acc uracy of the cod e dom ain power measurement.
Above a frequency error of 1 kHz, the probability of an impaired synchronization increases. With continuous measurements, at times all channels are displayed in blue with almost the same level.
Above a fr equency error of approx. 3 kHz, a CDP m easurement cannot be performed. R&S
FSIQ displays all possible codes in blue with a
similar level.

Measurement 4: Triggered Measurement of Relative Code Domain Power

If the code domain power measurement is performed without external triggering, a section of approximately 20 ms of the test signal is recorded at an arbitrary moment to detect the start of a WCDMA frame in this s ection. Depending on the pos ition of the frame start, the required computing time can be quite long (up to approx. 3 sec onds). The com puting time can be reduc ed by applying an external (frame) trigger.

I n mode CODE C HAN PREDEFIN ED the 3GPP test models 1 to 4 c an be used for the measurement at a keystroke (see softkey CODE CHAN PREDEFINED for a detailed description). The channel configuration for test model 5 according to 3GPP contains channels in which the modulation type can var y. Those chan nels can b e meas ured both i n CODE CHAN AUTOSEARCH and CODE CHAN PREDEFI NED mode if the analyzer is equipped wit h R&S model 5 can be used as well at a keystroke in mode CODE CHAN PRED EFIN ED .
