CALL:QPCHannel

Function

Sets/queries the forward quick paging channel (F-QPCH) data rate. FULL indicates 4.8 kbps (indicator rate is 9.6 kbps) and HALF indicates 2.4 kbps (indicator rate is 4.8 kbps). See Setting Control Channel Parameters .

Requirements

Lab Application Revision: B.01 and above

Test Application Revision: B.07 and above

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:QPCHannel:DRATe HALF"
!Sets the F-QPCH data rate to 2.4 kbps.

Function

Queries the forward quick paging channel (QPCH) level relative to the cell power level.

The optional [:SELected] keyword in this command specifies that the frequency band being set/queried applies to the current system type.

The QPCH channel is slotted (pulsed). When the state of the QPCH is on, OCNS is calculated based on the channel power when QPCH is present in the signal. When QPCH is not present, the output power is not fully calibrated.

Query

Range: 0 to -15 dB, NAN

Resolution: 0.01 dB

*RST Setting

-10 dB

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:QPCHannel:LEVel?" 

Function

The setting form of this command performs two functions: (1) sets the forward quick paging channel (QPCH) level relative to the pilot level, and (2) turns the QPCH state to ON.

The query form returns the QPCH level relative to the pilot level.

The optional [:SELected] keyword in this command specifies that the frequency band being set/queried applies to the current system type.

The QPCH channel is slotted (pulsed). When the state of the QPCH is on (see CALL:QPCHannel:STATe[:SELected] ), OCNS is calculated based on the channel power when QPCH is present in the signal. When the QPCH state is off, the output power is not fully calibrated.

Query

Range: +2 to -5 dB

Resolution: integer

*RST Setting

-3 dB

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:QPCHannel:RTPilot?" 
! Sets the QPCH level state to on and
!queries the QPCH level relative to the pilot power.

Function

Sets/queries the forward quick paging channel (QPCH) level relative to the pilot level.

The optional [:SELected] keyword in this command specifies that the frequency band being set/queried applies to the current system type.

The QPCH channel is slotted (pulsed). The test set adjusts OCNS (orthogonal channel noise simulator) to an appropriate level for the periods of time when the slotted QPCH signal is pulsed on. When QPCH is pulsed off, the output level will not be fully calibrated.

Range: +2 to -5 dB

Resolution: integer

*RST Setting

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:QPCHannel:LEVEL:RTPilot?"
!Queries the QPCH level relative to the pilot level.

Function

Sets/queries the forward quick paging channel's (QPCH) state. When the state of the forward QPCH channel is on, the test set will transmit it even if the mobile station does not support QPCH.

The QPCH channel is slotted (pulsed). The test set adjusts OCNS (orthogonal channel noise simulator) to an appropriate level for the periods of time when the slotted QPCH signal is pulsed on. When QPCH is pulsed off, the output level will not be fully calibrated.

Setting

Range: 1|ON|0|OFF

Query

Range: 1|0

*RST Setting

0 (off)

Programming Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:QPCHannel:STATe ON" !Turns on the quick paging channel.
