n

 

Results Returned

 

 

 

not specified or

 

Returns the following comma-separated scalar results:

n=1

 

1. Sample time is a floating point number representing the time between

 

 

 

 

samples when using the trace queries (n=0,2,etc).

 

 

2. Mean power is the mean power (in dBm). This is either the power

 

 

across the entire trace, or the power between markers if the markers are

 

 

enabled. If averaging is on, the power is for the latest acquisition.

 

 

3. Mean power averaged is the power (in dBm) for N averages, if

 

 

averaging is on. This is either the power across the entire trace, or the

 

 

power between markers if the markers are enabled. If averaging is on,

 

 

the power is for the latest acquisition. If averaging is off, the value of the

 

 

mean power averaged is the same as the value of the mean power.

 

 

4. Number of samples is the number of data points in the captured

 

 

signal. This number is useful when performing a query on the signal

 

 

(i.e. when n=0,2,etc.).

 

 

5. Peak-to-mean ratio has units of dB. This is the ratio of the maximum

 

 

signal level to the mean power. Valid values are only obtained with

 

 

averaging turned off. If averaging is on, the peak-to-mean ratio is

 

 

calculated using the highest peak value, rather than the displayed

 

 

average peak value.

 

 

6. Maximum value is the maximum of the most recently acquired data

 

 

(in dBm).

 

 

7. Minimum value is the minimum of the most recently acquired data (in

 

 

dBm).

 

 

 

2

 

Returns comma-separated trace points of the entire captured trace data.

 

 

These data points are floating point numbers representing the power of the

 

 

signal (in dBm). There are N data points, where N is the number of

 

 

samples. The period between the samples is defined by the sample time.

 

 

 

3, cdma2000,

 

Returns comma-separated magnitude values of the time data in Volts peak.

4, Option B7C

 

Returns comma-separated values of phase in degrees.

with cdma2000,

modes only

 

 

 

 

 

5, Option B7C

 

In input modes other than Ionly and Qonly returns comma-separated

with cdma2000,

 

values of I and Q trace data in Volts. The values are in pairs with the I

W-CDMA, Basic

 

value first. In Ionly and Qonly the data retured is comma-separated values

modes only

 

of the I data or the Q data.
