N9076A 1xEV-DO Measurement application

The N9076A is discontinued after June 1, 2019. The replacement model is the N9076EM0D X-Series Measurement Application with KeysightCare.

Signal analysis

• Complies with 3GPP2 standard of physical layer specifications C.S0024 (Rel.0, Rev.A, and Rev.B) including Subtype 0/1/2/3  
• Base station (forward link) and mobile station (reverse link) RF transmitter measurements; analog baseband measurements with PXA BBIQ or MXA BBIQ hardware
• One-button measurements with pass/fail per the standard
• Runs inside PXA, MXA, and EXA signal analyzers and VXT PXIe vector transceivers

Measurements

• Forward link: composite EVM and rho, CDP, CDE, I/Q chip errors, code domain, channel power, power vs. time, ACP, SEM, and more
• Reverse link: composite EVM and rho, CDP, CDE, I/Q chip errors, code domain, channel power, ACP, SEM, and more
• Auto-detection for data channels QPSK, 8PSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM
• For reverse link, supports channel types including Pilot, RRI, data, ACK, DRC, DSC, and auxiliary pilot

Performance (hardware dependent)

• Composite EVM: up to 1.0%
• ACLR: up to -83 (-88 dBc typical)
• Power accuracy: up to ±0.23 dB (at 95th percentile)
• Analysis bandwidth: PXA, MXA, VXT up to 160 MHz; EXA up to 40 MHz

Other features

• License key upgradeable
• Fixed and transportable license available
• SCPI remote user interface

The 1xEV-DO measurement application is one in a common library of more than 25 measurement applications in the Keysight X-Series, an evolutionary approach to signal analysis that spans instrumentation, measurements, and software. Transforming the X-Series signal analyzers into standard-based transmitter testers, the application provides fast one-button RF conformance measurements to help you design, evaluate and manufacture your cdma2000^® 1xEV-DO RF transmitters. The measurement application is fully standard compliant to the 3GPP2 (Rel.0, Rev.A and Rev.B) helping you to check your 1xEV-DO design with confidence and support manufacturing with single application covering 1xEV-DO technologies for production.

RF transmitter testing

• Full power and spectrum suite measurements with Pass/Fail indicator: channel power, power vs. time (forward link only), adjacent channel power, spectrum emission mask (SEM), spurious emissions, occupied bandwidth(OBW), and complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF)
• Pre-defined measurement settings help the modulation quality of pilot, MAC, data, preamble, overall-1, and overall-2 channels separately and easily
• Support 1xEV-DO Rev B with 64QAM auto-detection, modulation analysis, preamble Walsh code length to 128 for forward link. For reverse link, it supports a “No Feedback Multiplexing” mode for single and multi carriers
• Add real-time spectrum analyzer (RTSA) capability to the PXA or MXA signal analyzers to pinpoint interference caused by the multi-carrier cdma2000 and 1xEV-DO signals or other events in the transmitter
