GPIB Command Conventions

FETCh:WILPower[:ALL]?

Function

Queries the Inner Loop Power measurements. Inner Loop Power Control consists of TPC (Transmit Power Control) commands that are sent to the UE on the downlink to control UE transmitter power on the uplink.

This measurement verifies that the UE derives the transmitter power control command (TPC_cmd) correctly and that the inner loop power control drives the UE to the correct level relative to the adjacent timeslot.

Inner Loop Power measurements are made over the period of time between 25 microsecond transient durations, which begin and end at the timeslot boundaries.

The test set returns absolute and relative-to-previous values for each timeslot and performs aggregate power control measurements over 10 TPC_cmd groups. See FETCh:WILPower:TRACe:REL10TPC?

Measurement results are returned in the following order (see Inner Loop Power Measurement Results ):

FETCh:WILPower:TRACe:REL10TPC?

Function

For each timeslot measured during the last Inner Loop Power measurement, returns the aggregate power level of the previous 10 TPC_cmd groups, relative to the first timeslot in a set of 10 TPC_cmd groups. TPC_cmd groups can occur at a rate of one group per timeslot (Algorithm One) or one group per five-timeslots (Algorithm Two).

The first timeslot that has a 10 TPC measurement result will either be slot 10 (Algorithm One) or slot 50 (Algorithm Two). Timeslots are numbered beginning with zero.

Depending on which algorithm is used and the number of timeslots tested, the number of results returned by this command will vary. See Inner Loop Power Measurement Results .

Query

Relative power (for up to 150 timeslots). See FETCh:WILPower:NSLOts? .

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"FETCh:WILPower:TRACe:REL10TPC?"

FETCh:WILPower:TRACe:MASK?

Function

Returns relative power measurement pass/fail indications for each timeslot based on previous, adjacent timeslot power. See Inner Loop Power Measurement Results .

Each pass/fail indication includes a result for both the adjacent and 10 TPC measurements. They are coded as follows:

  • 1 = Adjacent timeslot measurement failed
  • 2 = 10 TPC measurement failed
  • 3 = Both measurements failed
