Spectral Flatness (802.11n/ac/ax/be)

The Spectral Flatness parameters specify the data source and limits shown on the Spectral Flatness trace.

Data Source: determines whether to use the Channel Estimation (Ch Frequency Response of the equalizer) or measured Subcarrier Values (basically the IQ Meas trace before equalization) as the source for checking the flatness.

Assume MCS32 for 802.11n 40 MHz signal: sets a value indicating whether the signal contains data transmitted with MCS32. This is used to disambiguate the two possible flatness limits for a 802.11n 40 MHz Megahertz: A unit of frequency equal to one million hertz or cycles per second. signal. If the signal is not 802.11n 40 MHz, this property is ignored.

Default: Disabled

Limits

Section 1/2, Upper/Lower: defines the minimum and maximum limits of the spectral shape. The exact subcarriers contained by Sections 1 and 2 are defined by the IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. A US-based membership organisation that includes engineers, scientists, and students in electronics and related fields. The IEEE developed the 802 series wired and wireless LAN standards. Visit the IEEE at http://www.ieee.org standard documents in the Spectral Flatness section. Section 1 can be thought of as the inner subcarriers and Section 2 as the outer subcarriers.
