The N7625B Signal Studio for 3GPP LTE TDD is a powerful software tool that simplifies the creation of standards-based 3GPP LTE and LTE-Advanced TDD signals compliant with the 3GPP Release 9 June 2010 and December 2010 versions. The software creates physical layer and transport channel coded arbitrary waveform used for measuring EVM, ACLR, and CCDF for power amplifier testing and for measuring HARQ functionality and block error rate (BLER) for receiver testing.

Signal setup is simplified with the included pre-defined, standard-compliant E-TM and FRC configurations. Extensive flexibility enables testing beyond standard requirements with user-defined signal configurations. LTE-Advanced signal creation enables uplink and downlink carrier aggregation with flexible configuration of contiguous and non-contiguous component carriers. Power characteristics and spectral investigation for uplink signals are critical to LTE-Advanced, and enhanced uplink is supported through clustered SC-FDMA and  imultaneous PUCCH / PUSCH transmission, enabling test of spurious emissions, CCDF, PAR, and other metrics. Pre-defined configurations of carrier aggregation scenarios are included for uplink and downlink waveforms.

Choose the hardware that best meets your needs. The N5182A MXG and N5162A MXG ATE vector signal generators offer the industry-best adjacent-channel leakage ratio (ACLR) performance and switching speeds making it ideal for the characterization and evaluation of eNB components like multi-carrier power amplifiers.

The E4438C ESG vector signal generator provides lower phase noise, excellent level accuracy, fading capabilities, and digital I/Q inputs and outputs making it better suited for early receiver test and UE component test.

The N5106A PXB baseband generator and channel emulator delivers the most current, versatile signal creation and channel emulation capabilities for up to 4x2 MIMO test.

The 16800/16900 Series logic analyzer provides digital I/Q outputs, making it better suited for UE Baseband IC and component transmission and receiver test.

The N5343A/N5344A DigRF excerciser/analyzer modules provide DigRF connectivity making it better suited for UE Baseband IC and RFIC transmitter/receiver test.
