Test Adherence to Standards

The 8960 Series 10 is compliant with 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10).
Frequency Error and Phase Error

Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) sections 13.1 and 13.16.1 The method of test implemented by the test sets Phase and Frequency Error measurement conforms to the measurement method defined in 3GPP 51.010, section 13.1. For GPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the Phase and Frequency Error measurement conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.16.1. For EGPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the Phase and Frequency Error measurement conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.16.1.
Transmitter Output Power and Burst Timing Error

Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) sections 13.3, 13.16.2, and 13.17.3 To make a transmitter output power measurement that conforms to 3GPP 51.010 standards, perform a Power versus Time measurement. An ETSI compliant, transmitter output power (TXPower) result is available as a result of this measurement. Pass/fail checking of the Power versus Time mask is also available by using the Power versus Time measurement. The Burst Timing Error result is available for GSM, GPRS and EGPRS on the Call Setup screen and by sending a query to the CALL subsystem. For GPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the transmitter output power result conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.16.2. When measuring two adjacent uplinks, each of these can have different power levels. For EGPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the 8PSK burst power measurement (with averaging turned on) conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.17.3. The 8PSK Estimated Carrier Power measurement meets the accuracy requirements for an estimation technique of long term average power as defined in 3GPP 51.010, annex 5.

Making a faster transmitter output power measurement for GMSK modulated signals An alternative method for testing the transmitter output power is using the GSM/GPRS TX Power measurement in the test set. The GSM/GPRS TX Power measurement implemented in the test set varies from the ETSI recommended method for measuring carrier power in terms of synchronization. This measurement synchronizes using RF amplitude synchronization instead of midamble synchronization. This was intentionally done to speed up the measurement, as this is one of the most common measurements performed in manufacturing. This alternative measurement technique is approximately four times faster than the synchronized method with the same accuracy. If the input signal meets the GSM Power versus Time characteristics, the TX Power measurement provides the same results as the Power versus Time - TX Power result (which is midamble synchronized and ETSI compliant). Note that the output RF spectrum measurement makes the TX Power measurement as part of its measurement process. NOTE The serving cell must be either GSM or GPRS for the GSM/GPRS TX Power measurement to be used. When the serving cell is EGPRS, this measurement is not available.
45
Output RF Spectrum
Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) sections 13.4 and 13.16.3 The Output RF Spectrum due to Switching method of test conforms to ETSI GSM 11.10, section 13.4 at offsets < 1800 kHz. For GPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the measurement conforms to ETSI GSM 11.10, section 13.16.3 at offsets < 1800 kHz. The Output RF Spectrum due to Modulation method of test conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.4 at offsets < 1800 kHz. For GPRS or EGPRS mobiles which support a single uplink timeslot or two adjacent uplink timeslots, the measurement conforms to 3GPP 51.010, section 13.16.3 at offsets < 1800 kHz (when the Multi-Measurement Count - Modulation parameter is set to Off using SETup:ORFSpectrum:COUNt:STATe). Making a faster ORFS measurement When Multi-Measurement Count (Modulation) is greater than 1, the measurement is performed over 40 or more bits in each of the regions from bit 15 to 60 and bit 87 to 132 of the burst. In 3GPP 51.010, the measurement is only specified on the latter section of the burst. Measuring on both the front and back of the burst has two advantages. First, this method provides two modulation measurements per burst, effectively doubling measurement speed. Secondly, it provides additional information regarding the spurious performance of the mobile. The method of test in 3GPP 51.010 is based upon time-gated spectrum analysis; this technique only allows one measurement per burst. Modern DSP techniques employed in the test set makes it possible to measure more of the burst while still excluding the unwanted effects of the midamble and switching transients generated by burst modulation. Measuring ORFS on GPRS and EGPRS mobiles using the BLER data connection type The result of the Output RF Spectrum measurement relies on pseudo random data being present in the data field of the RF burst. When using the BLER data connection type, these data fields do not contain pseudo random data, therefore the results may not be representative.

Reference Sensitivity
Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) section 14.2 The method of test implemented by the test sets Bit Error measurement conforms to the measurement method defined in 3GPP 51.010, section 14.2. The Bit Error measurement is available for GSM, GPRS, and EGPRS. Making a faster reference sensitivity measurement An alternative method of test for making a Reference Sensitivity measurement is to use the Fast Bit Error (FBER) measurement in the test set. The FBER measurement is five times faster than the normal BER measurement. The Fast Bit Error measurement is not applicable to GPRS or EGPRS. Block Error Measurement The Block Error (BLER) measurement which the test set provides is based on GPRS receiver tests defined in 3GPP 51.010, section 14.16 (GPRS) and section 14.18.1 (EGPRS). The Block Error measurement is not applicable to GSM. GSM Frame Erasure Rate Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) section 14.2.3 The method of test implemented by the test sets Frame Erasure Rate measurement conforms to steps b) - d) of the measurement procedure defined in 3GPP 51.010 section 14.2.3.4.2. The test set does not provide a fading function as required in step a). AMR In-Band Frame Error Measurement Standards Reference: 3GPP 51.010 (formerly ETSI GSM 11.10) sections 14.2.19 and 14.2.20, and 3GPP 44.010, section 5.1.7a The In-Band Frame Error Rate (IFER) measurement provides the reference sensitivity of the speech traffic channel. IFER is defined in 3GPP 51.010, section 14.2.19 (Reference sensitivity - TCH/AFS-INB), section 14.2.20 (Reference sensitivity - TCH/AHS-INB), and 3GPP 44.010, section 5.1.7a (TCH loop without signalling of erased frames for in-band channel rate error).

How Do I Use the Spectrum Monitor?

The following procedure shows a typical usage of the spectrum monitor in each of its two modes of operation; Swept Mode and Zero Span mode. 1. Establish a call with the mobile. NOTE The spectrum monitor can also be used with any of the test sets test mode operating modes.
2. Press the Instrument selection key. 3. Select Spectrum Monitor.
2
The spectrum monitor is displayed with the default settings as shown above. The Swap Window Positions (F5)key is only displayed when other measurements are active at the same time as the spectrum monitor. 4. Set the axis control as needed for your testing situation using the Frequency Span (F1), Reference (F2), and dB/div (F3) keys. For example, if you want to set the reference level manually (Auto is the default), press the Reference (F2) key then use the DATA ENTRY keys to enter the value you want. 5. Press the Trigger Setup (F4)key to access the Trigger Setup menu. 6. Set the trigger settings to meet your testing needs. For example:
65
S:\content repository\(01) E5515\E1968A, E6701C, E6704A GSM GPRS EGPRS\release archive\4.8\MUI\chapters\gen_op_overview_smonitor.fm
If you want the Spectrum Monitor to sweep immediately and continuously, ensure that Trigger Arm (F4)is set to Continuous. If you want to use external triggering, so that the Spectrum Monitor is triggered from a signal applied to the TRIG IN connector on the test sets rear panel, set Trigger Source (F1)to External. Trigger Delay (F2) allows you to specify the point, relative to the trigger event where samples are taken (a negative trigger delay value collects pre-trigger samples). The same trigger delay setting is used for swept mode and zero span mode. 7. Press the Return (F6)key to exit the Trigger Setup menu. 8. Press the Display (F6)key to access the display settings.
A typical spectrum monitor trace display is shown above. In this case, the Display menu is open allowing you to access all of the display control settings using the (F1) through (F12) keys. The following list provides examples of some of the settings you may want to adjust: Peak Threshold (F4) and Peak Excursion (F5) set the peak threshold and peak excursion levels respectively. A peak is identified by using the peak threshold and peak excursion value. A point is only marked as a peak if it rises and falls more than the peak excursion value from the peak threshold value. Marker Mode (F8) sets the mode of the active marker. Position mode activates a single frequency marker. Delta mode freezes the active marker at its current location and uses it as a reference marker. A second marker is created at the position of the reference marker and is used as a delta marker, reporting any change in amplitude or frequency from that of the reference marker. Peak Search (F10) moves the active marker to the highest peak on the spectrum monitor display, returning the numeric amplitude and frequency values. Marker -> Expected Freq (F11) sets the base station emulators expected frequency to the frequency of the active marker.
66
Marker -> Expected Power (F12) sets the base station emulators expected power level to the amplitude of the active marker.
Reference Marker
Delta Marker
A typical swept mode spectrum monitor display is shown above. In this case, the active marker is marker 1, which is set to Delta mode. 9. Press the Return (F6)key to exit the Display menu. 10.To set the spectrum monitor to zero span mode, press the Frequency Span (F1)key and use the numeric DATA ENTRY keys to enter a value of 0 MHz, or use the down-arrow key to reduce the span to zero.
67
A typical zero span mode spectrum monitor display is shown above. Like swept mode, the Y-axis represents absolute amplitude. However, the X-axis now represents time rather than frequency. 11.Press the Trigger Setup (F6)key. In zero span mode, additional trigger setup controls are available to you: If you want to change the view window over which you are looking at the signal, use the Time Span (F8) and Time Offset (F9) keys. The measurement is made for the duration of the time span, beginning at the time defined by the trigger event plus the trigger delay plus the time offset. If you want to change the resolution bandwidth, press the Zero Span RBW (F7) key and select a value. (To measure the total power of a signal you must select a resolution bandwidth greater than or equal to the signal bandwidth.) Note that changing the zero span resolution bandwidth does not modify the swept mode resolution bandwidth.
68
A typical zero span mode spectrum monitor display showing a bursted signal. The viewing window has been adjusted to zoom in on a single burst. If the temperature of the test set drifts outwith the calibrated temperature range of the spectrum monitor, a Measurement Uncalibrated message is displayed. To calibrate the spectrum monitor for the curremt temperature, press the Calibrate Measurement (F11) key on the Trigger Setup menu.
69
Calibrating the Test Set

Calibration Strategy
Various calibration routines must be run to ensure measurement accuracy. The type of calibration and appropriate intervals for performing calibrations vary with each application.
Description
There are two calibrations that must be performed periodically on the test set running GSM/GPRS/EGPRS applications: I/Q Calibration Spectrum Monitor Calibration
Calibration Procedures
Recommended Calibration Intervals I/Q Calibration This calibration is required if the baseband generator or the vector output modules are serviced or swapped. IQ calibration should not be used as part of frequent (i.e. daily, weekly or monthly) test set calibration. You do not have to perform the IQ calibrations for each application in your test set; performing them for one application provides calibration data to all applications and formats. The IQ calibration routines can be manually initiated by pressing the SYSTEM CONFIG key, then pressing the 1 of 2 (More) key, then pressing the Service (F7) key. Spectrum Monitor Calibration The spectrum monitor must be calibrated for each test application or lab application in your test set, as well as for each format within in a fast switching test application or lab application. For example, if you calibrate the spectrum monitor while the GSM format of the GSM_AMPS/136_GPRS_W-CDMA fast switching test application is active, you must also calibrate the spectrum monitor while the AMPS/136, GPRS, and W-CDMA formats are active, individually. To perform the spectrum monitor calibration from the front panel, initiate the spectrum monitor by pressing Instrument selection, and then selecting Spectrum Monitor from the menu. Next, select Trigger Setup (F4), then Calibrate Measurement (F11). To perform this calibration from a remote program, use the CALibration:SMONitor command. During spectrum monitor calibration, no power should be applied to the front panel RF IN/OUT connector.

The spectrum monitor calibration takes less than 5 minutes.

Condition: When Test Set is being used for the first time (allow 30-minute warm-up period). I/Q Calibration Spectrum Monitor Calibration
After firmware is upgraded or after switching between revisions of the application
If the ambient temperature changes more than 10 degrees C since latest calibration
Once every month
If Baseband Generator or Vector Output modules are serviced
