RRC Filter
On Off
Turns the Root Raised Cosine filter on or off. The RRC filter is the type 
specified in the W-CDMA 3GPP standards, with rolloff (
α
)=0.2.

Power Stat CCDF Meas Setup Menu Keys
To access the following keys for setting up a power statistics or 
complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) 
measurement, press 
MEASURE, Power Stat CCDF and then the 
front-panel 
Meas Setup key.
Power complimentary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) curves 
characterize the higher-level power of the signal. It provides the 
distribution of peak-to-average power ratios versus probability. A CCDF 
curve is defined by how much time the waveform spends at or above the 
given power level. The percent of time the signal spends at or above the 
level defines the probability for that particular power level.
Meas BW
5.0 MHz
Allows you to set the measurement bandwidth according to the channel 
bandwidth. The range is 1.00 kHz to 5.00 MHz.

Meas Setup
Counts
100.000 k
Allows you to set the accumulated number of sampling  for data 
acquisition. The range is 1.00 k (1 x 10
3
 ) to 1.00 G 
(1 x 10
9
 ).
Key Access: 
Meas Setup
Meas Interval
1.00 ms
Allows you to specify the time interval over which the measurement is 
made. The range is dependent upon the measurement bandwidth.
