2.Selecting the Target Parameters for Computation:
To facilitate usage of external computational tools, Signature provides a list of measurement related parameters as well as acquisition data. For Spectrum type measurements, you may choose from the following parameters to export into the MATLAB environment:
•Center Frequency
•Span Frequency
•Resolution Bandwidth
•Video Bandwidth
•Reference Level
•Attenuation
•Sweep Time and Time Span
For Vector Signal Analysis measurements, you may choose from the following parameters to export to the MATLAB environment:
•Center Frequency
•Sampling Frequency
3.Selecting the Target
In addition to target parameters, there are system generated data from the hardware receiver. The system generated data appears in the system as a series of floating point arrays, or traces. You may choose to export one or more of these traces into the MATLAB environment; therefore, the system presents you with a list of data sources to output.
For Spectrum type measurements, you may choose to export up to five traces (each of which can be configured differently based on the various trace states and detection options).
For the Vector Signal Analysis measurements, the system exports only Trace 1, which represents I/Q vs. Time.
PreConditions
The preconditions for operational interfacing of all of the above uses assume that the system is running at steady state. It also assumes that no other applications or applets are being executed in the foreground during these uses.
Connecting to MATLAB
To launch and start sending data to MATLAB, proceed as follows:
