Forward Channel Description
Forward Channel Description
Description
The forward channels transmitted by the test set in test mode include:
• Pilot Channel (see “CALL:PILot” )
• Sync Channel (see “CALL:SYNC” )
• Paging Channel (overhead messages only) (see “CALL:PAGing” )
• 1 Quick Paging Channel (all on or all off indicators) (see “CALL:QPCHannel” )
• 1 Traffic or Fundamental Channel (depending on the radio configuration) (see “CALL:TRAFfic” )
• 1 Supplemental Channel (RC3, RC4 or RC5 only) (see “CALL:SCHannel” )
• 1 OCNS Channel (see “CALL:OCNSource” )
• AWGN (see “CALL:AWGNoise:POWer” )
Relative power levels can be set for all channels except for OCNS (orthogonal channel noise simulator) , which
is used to simulate other fundamental code channels on the forward CDMA channel. OCNS is calculated to
make the sum of the walsh coded channels equal to the cell power setting. Cell power is set using the
“CALL[:CELL]:POWer” commands.
