General Channel Power Programming Example
The following program example assumes that the mobile station's (UE's) antenna output is connected to the RF IN/OUT connector, and that the mobile station is transmitting an uplink signal.
10 OUTPUT 714;"SETup:WCPower:CONTinuous OFF"!Set the channel power
20 !measurement to single trigger mode.
30 OUTPUT 714;"SETup:WCPower:TIMeout 1S"!Set a timeout value of 1 second
40 !in case the measurement cannot be made.
50 OUTPUT 714;"SETup:WCPower:COUNt 5"!Set multi-measurements to 5 and
60 !enable multi-measurements.
70 OUTPUT 714;"SETup:WCPower:INTerval:TIME 666.7US"!Set the measurement interval
80 !for 1 timeslot (666.7 us).
90 OUTPUT 714;"SETup:WCPower:TRIGger:SOURce AUTO" !Set the trigger source
100 !to use automatic triggering.
110 OUTPUT 714;"INITiate:WCPower"!Start the channel power measurement.
120 OUTPUT 714;"FETCh:WCPower?"!Query the returned integrity indicator and the
130 !average channel power measurement.
140 ENTER 714;Integrity,Wcpower!Enter the returned values into variables.
150 IF Integrity<>0 THEN !Integrity <> 0 indicates an invalid measurement.
170 PRINT "Measurement problem; check for signal level over/under range condition."
171 ELSE
180 END IF
190 END
-
Integrity
stores the returned integrity indicator value (see
Integrity Indicator
); 0 means a successful measurement with no errors.
-
Wcpower
returns the average channel power measurement value in dBm.
