CDE Layer (cdma2000/1xEV-DV)
trace shows the channel power error values for each code channel ( ) within the specified code layer ( ). The CDE of a particular code channel is a measure of the error power in a code channel relative to the total signal power.
CDE Layer trace data results are computed only from the first measured PCG. This is different than CDP Layer trace data results, which can include more than the first PCG in the measurement results.
Display Format
The data is shown in a multi-color format that assigns a unique color to each code layer and related active code channels. This makes it easy to visually identify and distinguish the active code channels (Display Preferences > Color tab).
) for a given code layer ( ). The colors are also user definable (seeFor CDP and CDE trace data displays with separate I/Q channel trace bars, to position the Marker to the desired Code Layer/Channel bar, click in close proximity to the horizontal bar that indicates the value of the code channel being measured.
Selecting a Code Layer
Select the desired code layer by selecting the Walsh Code Length in the CDP Layer Walsh Code Length text box (tab).
