Data (HSR QPSK Burst)

To open the Data node, click Data in the tree view. The figure below shows the Data node.

The timeslots shown below are set to show available timeslot types, not to show a typical test configuration.

1. Data (HSR QPSK Burst)

Tail Bits 1 (8 bits)

Encrypted Bits (138+138 bits)

Training Sequence Bits (62 bits)

Tail Bits 2 (bits)

Guard Period (2n bits)

Change Data Values Button

Click to display a drop-down menu in which you can copy a timeslot configuration from one timeslot to another.

Data Node Parameters

Use the Data window to define the bits in the bursts. The cells displayed in the Data section are determined by the burst type (Timeslot Type) for the selected timeslot as defined in the Timeslots window. In the window shown above, Timeslot 0 is selected so the data cells provided are for setting up an HSR QPSK Burst.

HSR QPSK Burst Bits

Tail Bits 1 (8 bits)

Default: X"1E"

Click the Details button in this cell to open the Data Source Selection. Enter 8 bits to use in the first of the two tail bit segments of the HSR QPSK burst. See Closeddrop-down figure and description

Import

Click Import to open a dialog box in which you can navigate to and import a pre-defined pattern file. The imported file automatically updates the user data entry area. The software accepts the following file types:

The maximum file size is 65536 bits. If the imported file is larger than 65536 bits, the software truncates the bits to conform to the maximum file size.

Export

Click Export to open a dialog box in which you can save the current data pattern to a file. You can save the data pattern as one of the following file types:

Clear

Click Clear to clear all data displayed in the user data entry area.

Insert PN9

Click Insert PN9 to insert a fixed psuedo-random bit sequence (pattern) containing 511 bits (29-1) into the user data entry area. The software generates this fixed pattern in accordance with the CCITT recommendation 0.153. You can click this button repeatedly to add additional PN9 sequences until the maximum file size is reached (65536 bits). If the maximum file size is exceeded, the software truncates the excess data. 

To edit the existing data pattern after reaching the maximum file size, insert the cursor at the desired point in the file and press Insert PN9 or use the keyboard 1 and 0 keys. The software inserts the data at the cursor position and truncates data in excess of 65536 bits.

Insert PN15

Click Insert PN15 to insert a fixed pattern psuedo-random bit sequence containing 32,767 bits (215-1) into the user data entry area. The software generates this fixed pattern in accordance with the CCITT recommendation O.153.

To edit the data pattern, insert the cursor at the desired point in the file and click Insert PN15, or enter the information manually using the keyboard keys 1 and 0. The software inserts the data at the cursor position and truncates all data in excess of 65536 bits.

Encrypted Bits (138 + 138 bits)

Default: PN9

Click the Details button in this cell to open the ClosedData Source Selection window.

Select PN9, PN15 or User Defined Bits to use for the encrypted bits.

Select User Defined Bits, to create an encrypted data string. (See the Closeddrop-down figure.)

The buttons in this window are described in Marker Source Selection.

Training Sequence Bits (62 bits)

Choice: TSC0 to TSC7 | User Defined Bits

Default: TSC0

Select TSC0 to TSC7 or User Defined Bits to use for the training sequence bits.

Click the Details button in this cell to open the ClosedData Source Selection window.

If you have selected EGPRS2-B HSR QPSK All Timeslots HB from the ClosedAdd New Carrier drop-down menu, or QPSK All timeslots HB from the ClosedPre-defined Timeslot Configuration dialog box, the default training sequence corresponds to the timeslot number. For example, the default for timeslot 0 is TSC0, the default for timeslot 1 is TSC1, and so on.

Add New Carrier            

GSM All Timeslots Normal

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

Continuous pattern with GMSK modulation.

EDGE Continuous

Continuous pattern with 8PSK modulation.

EGPRS2-A 16QAM All Timeslots Normal

All timeslots are configured as Normal 16QAM bursts.

EGPRS2-B HSR QPSK All Timeslots HB

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

EGPRS2-A 16QAM Continuous

Continuous pattern with 16QAM modulation.

EGPRS2-B QPSK Continuous

Continuous pattern with HSR (HB) QPSK modulation. 

Advanced GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A

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

Advanced EGPRS2-B

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

If you manually change a timeslot to an HSR QPSK Burst, the training sequence for that timeslot is automatically set to TSC0.

The training sequences are defined as follows:

TSC0

0C30 33FF F0CF F0FC

TSC1

3F0F 03FF 33CC 0C30

TSC2

30FC FC33 CFFC 0CC0

TSC3

003F 000C 3F33 C330

TSC4

330F C0F3 C33F FF30

TSC5

0330 F33F 0C00 3F00

TSC6
