FFT Length (Custom OFDM)

MeasSetup > Custom OFDM Demod Properties > Format tab

This parameter is shown in the Frame Definition tab and the Format tab. When Frame Definition > Apply is clicked, the value in the Frame Definition tab is applied to the Format tab (and the signal analysis results).

Default: 64

Range: 4 to 65536

The FFT Length parameter specifies the FFT Fast Fourier Transform: A mathematical operation performed on a time-domain signal to yield the individual spectral components that constitute the signal. See Spectrum. length for 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. transmission. 

When Transmitter Antennas = 1, the FFT length value must be even.

When Transmitter Antennas > 1, the FFT length value must be a power of two.
