802.11a/g/j/p Demod Properties Dialog Box

The IEEE 802.11a/g/j/p Demod Properties dialog box contains parameters that configure the VSA to demodulate 802.11a/g/j/p 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. modulated signals.

The IEEE 802.11a/g/j/p OFDM demodulator must be selected before this dialog box is available. To enable the demodulator, click MeasSetup > Measurement Type > Wireless Connectivity > IEEE 802.11a/g/j/p OFDM.

The dialog box contains these tabs:

Advanced Tab: Specifies advanced parameters used to demodulate nonstandard and/or user defined 802.11a/g/j/p OFDM signals and to manipulate trace data results.
Format Tab: Specifies the 802.11a/g/j/p OFDM configuration parameters. These are the parameters necessary for the VSA to lock on to and demodulate the test signal.
Time Tab: Specifies the signal capture configuration parameters. These parameters are used to select the pulse search length and to isolate a segment of the time record for further viewing and data analysis.
