You can generate signals via play-back of waveform files at the signal generator. To create the waveform file using R&S WinIQSIM2, you do not need a specific option.

To play back the waveform file at the signal generator, you have two options:

●

Install the R&S WinIQSIM2 option of the digital standard, e.g. R&S SMW-K255 for playing LTE waveforms

●

If supported, install the real-time option of the digital standard, e.g. R&S SMW-K55 for playing LTE waveforms

For more information, see data sheet.

2.2 About Bluetooth BR/EDR

The frequency band defined for Bluetooth devices is the unlicensed 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency band.

Table 2-1: Operating band

Regulatory range RF channels k and center frequencies f

2400.0 MHz to 2483.5 MHz k = 0 to 78, f = k * 1 MHz + 2402 MHz

Two modulation modes are used for Bluetooth: the mandatory basic rate (BR) and the optional enhanced data rate (EDR). The BR mode uses binary FM modulation and provides a data rate of 1 Mbps. The EDR mode uses two types of PSK modulation, the π/4-DQPSK or 8DPSK, and achieves data rates of 2 Mbps and 3 Mbps, respectively. All modulations schemes have the symbol rate equal to 1 Msymbol/s.

A time division duplex (TDD) scheme for duplex transmission is defined for both modes.

2.2.2 Bluetooth Transport Modes

There are three different transport modes defined in the Bluetooth core specification, each of them with special applications:

●

There are some common transmitted packets used by all transport modes and some specific packets defined for each transport mode.

2.2.3 Packet Structure and Fields

About the Bluetooth Options

About Bluetooth BR/EDR

Synchronous connection-oriented (SCO) The SCO transport mode is used for a symmetric point-to-point link establishment between a master and a specific slave in the piconet.

Extended synchronous connection-oriented (eSCO) The eSCO transport mode is used for a symmetric or asymmetric, point-to-point link establishment between the master and a specific slave.

Asynchronous connection less (ACL) The ACL transport mode is used for a point-to-multipoint link establishment between the master and all slaves participating on the piconet.

Almost all Bluetooth transmitted packets have standard format and consist of the access code, the header and the payload with useful information. The exceptions are the ID packet which consists of the access code only and NULL and POLL packets which carry only the access code and the header.

2.2.3.1 Access Code

The access code is used for synchronization, DC offset compensation and identification. The fields of the access code are shown in the figure below and their meaning is explained in the table below.

Table 2-9: The access code fields

TYPE Type code, specifies which packet type is used

FLOW Flow control, used for flow control of packets over the ACL logical transport.

When the RX buffer in the recipient is full, a STOP indication must be returned. When the RX buffer can accept data, a "Go" indication must be returned.

ARQN Automatic repeat request number, acknowledgement indication, used to inform

the source of a successful transfer of payload data with CRC can be positive acknowledged ACK or negative acknowledged NAK,

SEQN Sequential numbering scheme to order the data packet stream

HEC Header-error-check to check the header integrity

2.2.3.3 Payload Format

The payload structure depends on the type of the data field and the data rate. Two fields are defined in the payload: the synchronous data field and the asynchronous data field. The ACL packets only have the asynchronous data field and the SCO and eSCO packets only have the synchronous data field. The exception is DV of SCO transport mode which has both data fields, synchronous and asynchronous.

2.2.4 Bluetooth Modulation Schemes

The modulation used for the basic data rate packets is GFSK (Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying) with a bandwidth bit period product BT = 0.5. The modulation index is between 0.28 and 0.35.

The modulation scheme used for enhanced data rate packets changes within the packet. The access code and packet header have a GFSK modulation scheme and are transmitted with the basic rate 1Mbps. The subsequent synchronization sequence, payload and trailer sequence have a PSK type of modulation and are transmitted with a data rate of 2 Mbps or optionally 3 Mbps.

The PSK modulation, namely π/4 rotated differential encoded quaternary phase shift keying (π/4–DQPSK) is defined for the 2 Mbps transmission.

The PSK modulation, namely differential encoded 8-ary phase shift keying (8DPSK), is defined for the 3Mbps transmission.

The modulation types and corresponding packet types are given in the table below.

2.3 About Bluetooth LE

The R&S SMW provides you with the ability to generate signals in accordance with the Low Energy (LE) specification for Bluetooth wireless technology.

Bluetooth LE provides data transfer from low-power devices running on the smallest of batteries to a larger device, such as a PC, a mobile phone, or a PDA. Bluetooth LE establishes a connection, e.g. to a wristwatch, a heart rate sensor, or a data transfer from a digital camera. The generated packets do not support audio content.

A time division duplex (TDD) scheme for duplex transmission is defined. The frequency band defined for Bluetooth devices is the unlicensed 2.4 GHz "Industrial, Scientific and Medical" (ISM) frequency band.

2.3.4 Modulation Scheme

The modulation is Gaussian frequency shift keying (GFSK) with a bandwidth bit period product BT = 0.5. The modulation index has to be between 0.45 and 0.55. The mandatory modulation scheme is 1 Msymbol/s modulation. It uses a shaped, binary FM to minimize transceiver complexity.

26User Manual 1175.6803.02 ─ 21

R&S®SMW-K60/-K117

Option R&S SMW-K60 supports LE uncoded 1 Msymbol/s (LE 1M) physical layer (PHY).

Option R&S SMW-K117 supports LE coded 1 Msymbol/s PHY and optional modulation scheme LE uncoded 2 Msymbol/s (LE 2M) PHY.

2.3.5 Direction Finding

Since Bluetooth version 5.1, a Bluetooth LE device can transmit its direction information to a Bluetooth receiver. The information is transmitted in direction finding enabled packets in the LE uncoded PHY. In combination with location information sent on profile-level, the Bluetooth LE receiver can calculate its position.

Angle of Arrival (AoA) method

A Bluetooth LE transmitter sends direction finding enabled packets using a single antenna. A receiving Bluetooth LE peer device consists of an antenna array linked to an RF switch which forwards the combined antennae signal to a Bluetooth LE receiver.

About the Bluetooth Options

About Bluetooth LE

The peer device switches its antennae while receiving parts of the packets and capturing I/Q samples. The I/Q samples are used to calculate the phase difference of the radio signal received by different antennae of the array. For an array of two antennae with distance d, frequency f of the radio signal and speed of light c, the phase difference ψ calculates as follows:

ψ = 2πd * cos(Θ) * f / c

The angle of arrival Θ is calculated as follows:

Θ = arccos((ψ * c) / (2πd * f))

Figure 2-10: Angle of Arrival method

27User Manual 1175.6803.02 ─ 21

R&S®SMW-K60/-K117

Angle of Departure (AoD) method

A Bluetooth LE transmitter sends direction finding enabled packets using an antenna array. A receiving Bluetooth LE device, consisting of a single antenna, captures I/Q samples and the geometry of the antenna array from profile-level information.

For an array with two antennae with distance d, frequency f of the radio signal and speed of light c, the phase difference ψ calculates as follows:

ψ = 2πd * cos(Θ) * f / c

The angle of departure Θ is calculated as follows:

Θ = arccos((ψ * c) / (2πd * f))

About the Bluetooth Options

About Bluetooth LE

Figure 2-11: Angle of Departure method

The geometry of the antenna array is information that is shared between Bluetooth LE transmitter and receiver on a profile-level. The antenna switching pattern and the method of angle estimation is specified by Constant Tone Extension.

For more information, refer to section 8 Direction Finding Using Bluetooth Low Energy of core specification for Bluetooth wireless technology, volume 1, part A.

Constant tone extension

To transmit direction finding information in packets in the Bluetooth LE Uncoded PHYs, the link layer packet format is extended by an optional field Constant Tone Extension (CTE) as illustrated in Figure 2-8. The field has a length between 16 µs and 160 µs and consists of a constantly modulated series of unwhitened 1s. This modulation results in a CW tone shifted by 250 kHz (LE1M) or 500 kHz (LE2M) from the LE channel center frequency.

Ramp Time

Sets the ramp time, which extends the burst by a corresponding number of 0 padding symbols at the beginning and the end of a burst. During this period of time, power ramping is based on the specified ramp function.

Do not switch the transmitted power abruptly at the end or the start of a burst, since the switching operation generates excessively strong non-harmonics. The switching operation is therefore stretched over several symbol clocks.

Remote command:

[:SOURce<hw>]:BB:BTOoth:PRAMping:RTIMe on page 196

The transmitted power rises and falls with linear fashion. The transmitted power rises and falls with a cosine-shaped edge.

This setting causes a more favorable spectrum than the "Linear" setting.

Rise Offset

Sets the offset of the rising edge of a burst. The offset is specified by the selected number of symbols.

Negative values shift the rising edge to earlier positions, which results in a corresponding number of added 0 padding symbols before the burst.

Positive values shift the rising edge to later positions, which results in a corresponding number of skipped symbols at the beginning of the burst.
