GPIB Command Conventions

CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:BAD?

Function

Queries the number of bad frames detected on the forward fundamental channel (F-FCH) within the measurement period which is reported in the Power Measurement Report Message (PMRM) by the mobile station. If the number exceeds 31, the mobile station reports this result to 31. See MS Reported Frame Error Rate Information for details.

This result can be cleared by the CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:CLEar .

Query

Range: 0 to 31, 9.91E+37 (NAN)
Resolution: 1

*RST Setting

9.91E+37

Requirements

Lab Application Revision: B.02 and above

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:BAD?" 
!Query the number of bad frames detected on the F-FCH
!within the measurement period by the mobile station.

CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:CLEar

Function

This command clears all of the results relating to MS reported frame error rate for forward power control (see MS Reported Frame Error Rate Information ) and sets these results to their default values. See also To Clear the MS Reported Frame Error Rate Information for details.

Requirements

Lab Application Revision: B.02 and above

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:CLEar?" 
!Clears MS reported FER results for FPC.

CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:DELay

Function

Sets/queries the delay period (in units of frames) that the mobile station waits for following a PMRM before restarting the frame counting for power control purpose. See Frame Delay of Report (Frames) for details.

Setting

Range: 0 to 124
Resolution: 4

Query

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:DELay 40" 
!Sets to wait for 40 frames following a PMRM before
!restarting the frame counting for FPC.

CALL:MS:FERate:REPort:INTerval

Function

Sets/queries the measurement period (that is, the total number of frames) over which the mobile station is to count frame errors for power control FER report. See Frame Interval of Report (Frames) for details.
