Waveform Generation Log

The Waveform Generation Log is an advanced feature and applies to the following:

The Waveform Generation Log is available with Option QFP. Use the Waveform Generation Log to create a summary of the generated waveform's information.

Including:

To View the Waveform Generation Log:

  1. Using one of the two Closedexamples --or create your own-- set up the N7602B software to generate a Control Channels waveform.

    Examples of Standard BCH (Control Channels) and Waveform Pre-configurations

    The order of the Carrier setups is optional.

    Example 1: FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH and GSM BCH + TCH/FS + PDTCH Pre-Configuration

    FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH Waveform Setup Requirements

    Tree View Node

    Parameter: Configuration or Channel Type (Radio Format)

    Waveform Setup1

    GSM BCH + TCH/FS + PDTCH

    WFMn

    No action is required.

    Carrier 1

    Control Channels (1.GSM/EDGE):

    FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH

    Timeslot

    Standard Combined BCH (on TS0)2

    Carrier 2

    Advanced GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A (1.GSM/EDGE):

    TCH/FS 1 Timeslot On TS3 and PDTCH 1 Timeslot On TS4

    Timeslot

    • Coded TCH/FS (on TS3 or TS4) and

    • Coded Downlink/Uplink MCS-53 (on TS3 or TS4)4

    1 Use the Insert New Waveform button to select the correct WFMn. type. The software then selects the default Carriers for this waveform.

    2 Verify TS3 and TS4 states are off.

    3 Optional: Choose one of the Coded Downlink or Uplink MCS-5 to MCS-9 (PDTCH) data types (Software defaults to Coded Downlink MCS-5).

    4 Verify TS3 and TS4 are on.

    Example 2: FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH + SDCCH + SACCH and GSM BCH + TCH/HR + PDTCH Pre-Configuration

    FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH + SDCCH + SACCH Waveform Setup Requirements

    Tree View Node

    Parameter: Configuration or Channel Type (Radio Format)

    Waveform Setup1

    GSM BCH + TCH/HS + PDTCH

    WFMn

    No action is required.

    Carrier 1

    Control Channels (1.GSM/EDGE):

    FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH + SDCCH + SACCH2

    Timeslot

    Standard Combined BCH (on TS0)3

    Carrier 2

    Advanced: Half Rate GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A: (1. GSM/EDGE):

    TCH/HS 1 Timeslot On TS3

    Timeslot

    Coded TCH/HS (on TS3)4

    Carrier 3

    Advanced GSM/EDGE/EGPRS2-A (1. GSM/EDGE):

    PDTCH 1 Timeslot On TS4 

    Timeslot

    Coded Downlink MCS-5 (on TS4)5,6

    1 Use the Insert New Waveform button to select the correct WFMn. type.

    2 Use the Configuration parameter's dropdown to select this BCH.

    3 Verify TS3 and TS4 states are off. If not, use the State parameter's down arrow to turn off.

    4 Verify TS3 is on.

    5 Verify TS4 is on.

    6 Optional: Choose one of the Coded Downlink or Uplink MCS-5 to MCS-9 (PDTCH) data types (Software defaults to Coded Downlink MCS-5)

  2. In the Tool menu, click Waveform Generation Log to open the window.

  3. Click the Generate button to create a waveform. The transport layer information appears in the window, as shown.

    If you open the Waveform Generation Log after generating a waveform, no information is displayed.
