Frame Definition Tab (Custom OFDM)

Menu Path: MeasSetup > Custom OFDM Properties > Frame Definition tab

The Frame Definition tab of the Custom OFDM Properties Dialog Box configures the frame's general settings, frame parts and allocations.

The Frame Definition tab contains these parameters:

Preset to Standard - Configures the VSA to measure one of several signals based on the 5G NR standard. You can also use Format > Preset to Standard to configure the same NR signals as well as several other standard formats.
