Using a TD-SCDMA Standard Setup

Click Preset to Standard to set the VSA to demodulate and analyze a 3GPP N-TDD Time Division Duplex: A duplexing technique dividing a radio channel in time to allow downlink operation during part of the frame period and uplink operation in the remainder of the frame period. 1.28Mcps, TD SCDMA modulated signal. The following table provides a list of the parameters and settings that are set when using the Preset to Standard property:

The TD-SCDMA demodulator must be selected before these Standard Presets are available.
