Agilent Technologies E4438C manual Multiframe output data generation

Specifications for Signal Personality Characteristics

GSM/GPRS	Multiframe output data generation
[real-time mode]		Coding scheme	Full-rate speech [TCH/FS]
[Option 402]			CS-1, CS-4
		Data	PN9 or PN15
			The selected data sequence is coded continuously
			across the RLC data block as per ETSI TS 100 909, 3GPP
			TS 05.03, V8.9.0, 2000-11 [release 1999]
			An independent version of the selected data sequence
			is coded across the MAC header.
		Frame structure	26-frame multi-frame structure as per ETSI
			GSM, 05.01 version 6.1.1 [1998-07].
			[Coding is done on frames 0-11, 13-24, of the multi-frame.
			Frame 25 is idle [RF blanked].]
		Adjacent timeslots
		Data	PN9, PN15 coded as per ETSI TS 100 909, 3GPP
			TS 05.03, V8.9.0, 2000-11 [release 1999].
		Frame structure	26-frame multi-frame structure as per ETSI GSM,
			5.01 version 6.1.1 [1998-07].
	Multiframe measurements1
		GSM measurement modes
		Static sensitivity	RBER at user-specified power level measured.
			[This is the complete conformance test as defined in
			pri-ETS 300 609-1 [GSM 11.21] version 4.12.0 [Dec 98],
			section 7.3.4.]
		Sensitivity search	Automatically finds the input level [sensitivity] that causes
			a user-specified RBER [normally 2%] for class II bits.
		Maximum frame count 6,000,000 speech frames
		GSM measurement results	Class Ib bit-error ratio [RBER for TCH/FS]
			Class II bit-error ratio [RBER for TCH/FS]
			Frame erasure ratio [FER]
			Downlink error frame count
			Class Ib bit-error count
			Class II bit-error count
			Erased frame count
			Total frame count
		Maximum RBER	50%
		Maximum FER	100%

Alternate time slot power level control

[Valid for standard attenuator only. Not applicable to Option UNB or Option 506]

Amplitude is settled within 0.5 dB in 20 µsecs, +4 to –136 dBm at 23 ±5 °C

1. Measurements also require Option 300.
