cdmaOne multichannel,
multicarrier personality,
Option UN5
Generate multichannel cdmaOne
signals with Option UN5. These
cdmaOne signals can be used for
base station and mobile tests at sys-
tem or component level. Testing with
Walsh-coded channels accurately
simulates the actual signal power a
component experiences. View the
power statistics of the IS-95 wave-
forms produced by the ESG-D series
compared to additive Gaussian white
noise (AWGN). 
Description
Option UN5 is a firmware personality
built upon the internal dual arbitrary
waveform generator (Option UND).
The firmware can be activated or
downloaded by purchasing a license
key. Firmware updates can be found 
on the ESG web page:

Key features
Pre-configured channel setups
Easily perform cdmaOne measure-
ments.
Choose from five channel configura-
tions including:
• pilot channel
• 9 channel forward (IS-97)
• 32 channel forward
• 64 channel forward
• reverse channel
Use the pilot for performing mobile
turn-on or waveform quality tests. 
The nine-channel arrangement 
is configured according to IS-97 
specifications. The 32-channel 
configuration provides a realistically
loaded base station for typical 
base station testing. Simulate a 
fully loaded base station by 
choosing the 64 forward-channel
configuration. This Walsh-coded 
signal simulates a maximum 
capacity transmission for an IS-95
CDMA base station. Use the reverse-
channel selection to characterize
CDMA mobile components.
256 configurable channels
Customize channel setup to 
realistically test components.
Define channel type, Walsh code,
power, PN offset, and data for each
specified channel. Channel power 
level can be set individually, adjusted
to meet the IS-97 standard, or set 
to equal power. 
The configuration limits are:
Channel type pilot, paging, 
traffic, sync up 
to 256 channels
Walsh Code 0 to 63
PN offset 0 to 511
Data 0, repeating 
pattern, random
Peak/average cumulative distribution function of IS-95 waveforms.
Simulate a fully loaded base station by choosing the 64 forward-channel configuration . 
CDMA channel editor increases flexibility by providing individual channel settings.
