built on the internal real-time I/Q
baseband generator (Option UN8).

downloaded by purchasing a license
key for users who already own UN8.
Key features
• Real-time signals using internally
or externally generated data

“linearized” Gaussian Tx filter
• Generate continuous or framed

•
For frame data, all fields are
editable
to keep pace with the
evolving EDGE definition
• Synchronize two ESGs to
combine EDGE (8PSK) and GSM
(GMSK) timeslots
• Upload externally defined burst
shape waveforms
• Use custom filtering and editable
framing fields to keep pace with
