Carrier n Setup (Continuous Pattern)

In a continuous pattern setup, the instrument transmits a continuous data stream without framing or bursting. In the figure below, a continuous pattern carrier is selected for configuration.

Carrier Configuration Summary Table

This table enables you to view the key parameters for each carrier in the waveform. You can add or delete carriers using the buttons above the table (see descriptions below). To activate the setup tables for a carrier, double-click that carrier row. You can use a maximum of 25 carriers.

Click to open a window with a list of Closedpre-defined carrier configurations. To replace the current configuration in the setup table with one of these pre-defined configurations, select the desired configuration and click OK or double-click the desired configuration.

Click to open a Closeddrop-down menu from which you can select a carrier to add to the setup table. The carrier is inserted above the currently selected carrier in the table.

GSM Timeslots (All Normal - Default)

All timeslots are configured as Normal GMSK bursts.

EDGE All Timeslots Normal      

All timeslots are configured as Normal 8PSK bursts.

GSM 1 Timeslot Normal      

Sets timeslot 0 as a normal GSM burst and timeslots 1 to 7 as custom GSM bursts.

EDGE 1 Timeslot Normal     

Sets timeslot 0 as a normal EDGE burst and timeslots 1 to 7 as custom EDGE bursts.

GSM/EDGE Mixed All Timeslots Normal      

GSM and EDGE Normal Bursts are mixed; alternating GMSK and 8PSK timeslots.

GSM Continuous (Default)

Continuous pattern with GMSK modulation.

EDGE Continuous     

Continuous pattern with 8PSK modulation.

EGPRS2-A Timeslots (16QAM All Timeslots Normal - Default)

All timeslots are configured as Normal 16QAM bursts.

EGPRS2-B HSR Timeslot HB (QPSK All Timeslots HB - Default)

All timeslots are configured as HSR (HB) QPSK burst.

EGPRS2-A Continuous (16QAM Continuous - Default)

Continuous pattern with 16QAM modulation.

EGPRS2-B HSR Continuous (QPSK Continuous - Default)

Continuous pattern with HSR (HB) QPSK modulation. 

Advanced GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A (TCH/FS 1 Timslot Normal - Default)

Configures timeslot 0 with a coded TCH/FS and all timeslots use Normal GSMK bursts.

Advanced EGPRS2-B (UBS-6 1 Timeslot HB - Default)

Configures timeslot 0 with a coded UBS-6 and all timeslots use HB QPSK and 3PI/4 rotation.

Advanced Half Rate GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A (TCH/HS 1 Timeslot Normal - Default)

Configures timeslot 0 with a coded TCH/HS and all timeslots use Normal GMSK bursts.

Control Channels (FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH - Default)

Configures timeslot 0 as a combined BCH setup and all timeslots use Normal GMSK bursts.

As the number of carriers increases, the calculation time increases.

Click to delete the currently selected carrier(s) in the setup table. To select multiple carriers, hold down the CTRL key while you click the desired carriers. You can also use the mouse and the SHIFT key to select a consecutive group of carriers.

Click to copy the selected carrier and add the copy to the list of carriers.
