Manual - Data Subcarrier Modulation Format (802.16 OFDM)

Menu Path: MeasSetup > IEEE 802.16 OFDM Demod Properties > Format tab

Default: See 802.16 OFDM Standard Setups/Presets Table.

When Manual is selected, the Data Subcarrier Modulation Format can be manually specified. The VSA ignores the format transmitted in the OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing: OFDM employs multiple overlapping radio frequency carriers, each operating at a carefully chosen frequency that is Orthogonal to the others, to produce a transmission scheme that supports higher bit rates due to parallel channel operation. OFDM is an alternative tranmission scheme to DSSS and FHSS. burst and sets the VSAs demodulator to the modulation format specified in the Manual text box. The modulation format is shown in the SubFrame Info trace data.
