WiMAX Measurement Suite

A complete suite of measurement functions to analyze IEEE 802.16e OFDMA transmitter RF performance with 3030 Series RF digitizers.

• Transmit power
• Spectral mask
• Occupied bandwidth
• Frequency tolerance
• Symbol / chip clock frequency tolerance
• Carrier suppression/leakage
• Modulation accuracy (EVM)
• Spectral flatness

The WiMAX measurement suite expands the capability of the Aeroflex 3030 Series PXI RF digitizers to perform WiMAX PHY (physical layer) OFDMA power, spectrum and modulation measurements in accordance with IEEE 802.16e (2005).

The WiMAX measurement suite provides easy to use interfaces for both manual operation within PXI Studio and application programming in C, VB and .NET.

The WiMAX measurement suite is designed for PXI based RF test systems used in the development and manufacturing of mobile radio transmitters, sub-modules and RFICs (radio frequency integrated circuits). The measurement suite enables the PXI 3000 to transfer its high speed, performance and flexibility benefits to the production floor for efficient RF testing of WiMAX devices.
