R&S®SMW-K47/-K87
1 Welcome to the 1xEV-DO digital standard
The R&S SMW-K47/-K87 is a firmware application that adds functionality to generate
signals in accordance to the CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized), Rev. A
and Rev. B.
CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO is the North American standard for the third mobile radio generation (3G). CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO is a high-speed packet-switched transmission technique with forward peak data rates of 4.9152 Mbps per carrier, designed and optimized
for a data-centric broadband network.
The R&S SMW simulates 1xEV-DO signal at the physical layer. In forward link (downlink) mode, the signal is generated in real time. Parameter changes during active signal
output take effect immediately without signal interruption. In reverse link (uplink) mode,
the signal is precalculated and played from the ARB memory. Parameter changes
result in a recalculation of the signal.
The following list gives an overview of the main feature provided by the R&S SMW for
generating an 1xEV-DO signal in accordance with 3GGP2 C.S0024-B.v3.0.

2.3 Traffic scheduling process
In the 1xEV-DO system, the Forward Link is governed by a time division multiple
access technique. Access to Forward Link bandwidth by a user channel is governed by
a scheduling process. The schedule process determines who gets access to Forward
Link slots to carry user data.
The traffic scheduling process in this instrument follows a number of rules to schedule
which user's data is sent for each slot.
The rules are listed in order of priority, with the highest priority rules being listed first. In
the event that two rules contradict each other, the circumstances invoking the lower priority rule must be altered to resolve the contradiction.

About the 1xEV-DO options
Traffic scheduling process
A channel with "State = Off" is never transmitted.
The first slot of the control channel packet is always transmitted at its specified off-
set at the start of the control channel cycle.
Once the first slot of a multiple slot packet is sent, the remaining slots are always
transmitted with the proper interlace (three slots skipped after one slot sent).
Packets for a user can be transmitted on 1 to 4 interlaces (there are a total of 4
interlaces in the 1xEV-DO system). Packets on the different interlaces are duplicates of the packets sent on the other interlaces for a given user. The interleave
factor user interface parameter is used to control the number of interlaces used for
each user.
Immediately after the transmission of the last slot of a multiple slot packet, a lockout period of three slots is created. No additional packets from the same source
can be scheduled before the three slot period expires.
A control channel packet has priority over all other traffic channels. This excludes
transmission of user channels in advance of the control channel packet, if the other
channel would require a slot that the control channel packet would require.
User1 traffic has priority over User2, User3, and User4 traffic.
User2 traffic has priority over User3 and User4 traffic.
User3 traffic has priority over User4 traffic.
If no traffic is scheduled for a slot, an idle slot is transmitted.

Trigger Settings Common to All Basebands
To enable simultaneous signal generation in all basebands, the R&S SMW couples the
trigger settings in the available basebands in any instrument's configuration involving
signal routing with signal addition. For example, in MIMO configuration, routing and
summing of basebands or of streams.
The icon indicates that common trigger settings are applied.
You can access and configure the common trigger source and trigger mode settings in
any of the basebands. An arm or a restart trigger event applies to all basebands, too.
You can still apply different delay to each of the triggers individually.
Trigger Mode
Selects trigger mode, i.e. determines the effect of a trigger event on the signal generation.
For more information, refer to chapter "Basics" in the R&S SMW user manual.

Sync. Output to External Trigger/Sync. Output to Trigger
Enables signal output synchronous to the trigger event.
●
1xEV-DO configuration and settings
Trigger settings
Option: R&S SMW-B9
In primary-secondary instrument mode, secondary instruments are triggered by the
active edge of the synchronization signal.
"On"
Corresponds to the default state of this parameter.
The signal calculation starts simultaneously with the trigger event. Because of the
processing time of the instrument, the first samples are cut off and no signal is output. After elapsing of the internal processing time, the output signal is synchronous
to the trigger event.
●
"Off"
The signal output begins after elapsing of the processing time. Signal output starts
with sample 0. The complete signal is output.
This mode is recommended for triggering of short signal sequences. Short sequences are sequences with signal duration comparable with the processing time of the
instrument.
In primary-secondary instrument mode, this setting ensures that once achieved, synchronization is not lost if the baseband signal sampling rate changes.

Packet Start Offset ← Common
Sets the minimum number of slots between the end of one packet and the beginning of
the next.
For single slot packets, a value of zero will cause the next packet to be sent in the
immediate next slot (subject to scheduling).
25User Manual 1175.6710.02 ─ 20
R&S®SMW-K47/-K87
For multiple slot packets, a value of zero will cause the next packet transmission to
start three slots after the end of the previous packet. The three slot delay is identical to
the interleaving delay between slots for multiple slot packets. The offset value is
attached to the end of the preceding packet.
