Mag Err (RFID)
Menu Path:
(Magnitude Error) trace shows the magnitude error of the carrier over all symbol points. The default display format of this trace is Real.
This trace is applicable to FSK signals only.
Mag Err shown in the symbol table is shown as a percentage and is the rms average of the magnitude errors at all symbol locations divided by the average magnitude, as follows:
AM modulation on the signal.
is an indicator of the quality of the amplitude component of the modulated signal. For example, a very high magnitude error might indicate high incidentalThe magnitude error measurement (Mag Err) shown in the Demod Summary table is computed only at the symbol times (the instant in time when symbols are detected). The computation does not include points between symbols. Therefore, the value of has no effect on this error data.
