Option Verification 5-15 EVDO Signal Analyzer Verification, Options 62 and 63
MT8212E and MT8213E MM PN: 10580-00255 Rev. J 5-75
Idle Slot Channel Power, Frequency Error, Rho, and Tau Verification,
Options 62 and 63
Option 62, Option 63, or Both
The tests in this section verify the function of the optional EVDO Signal Analyzer in Model MT821xE
Cell Master.
Procedure
1. Confirm that the equipment settings are unchanged from the previous test. The power sensor calibration
factor frequency should still be at 1930 MHz, and the MG3700A frequency and MT821xE Center
Frequency should still be at 1930.05 MHz.
2. On the MG3700A, change the selected pattern to FWD_IDLE.
3. Adjust the MG3700A output so that the power meter reads –50 dBm ± 0.2 dB.
4. Then wait 15 seconds to allow the MT821xE to update its measured results.
5. For an MT821xE with Option 62 (EVDO RF Measurements), subtract the displayed Channel Power value
from the power meter reading in Step 3. Then record the calculated Channel Power error in the
At 1930.05 MHz, –50 dBm Level, IDLE SLOT section of Table A-66 on page A-43.
6. For an MT821xE with Option 63 (EVDO Demodulator), record the displayed Freq Error, Rho Pilot, and
Tau in the At 1930.05 MHz, –50 dBm Level, IDLE SLOT section of Table A-67 on page A-44.
7. Verify that the measured values in Step 5 and Step 6 are within specifications.
8. On the power meter, press the Sensor key, the Cal Factor soft key, and then the FREQ soft key. Use the
keypad to enter 870.03 MHz as the input signal frequency, which sets the power meter to the proper
power sensor calibration factor. Press the System key to display the power reading.
9. Set the MG3700A frequency to 870.03 MHz.
10. Adjust the MG3700A output so that the power meter reads –10 dBm ± 0.2 dB.
11. On the MT821xE, press the Frequency main menu key and set 870.03 MHz as Center Frequency. Then
wait 15 seconds to allow the MT821xE to update its measured results.
12. For an MT821xE with Option 62 (EVDO RF Measurements), subtract the displayed Channel Power
value from the power meter reading in Step 10. Then record the calculated Channel Power error in the
At 870.03 MHz, –10 dBm Level, IDLE SLOT section of Table A-66.
13. For an MT821xE with Option 63 (EVDO Demodulator), record the displayed Freq Error, Rho Pilot, and
Tau in the At 870.03 MHz, –10 dBm Level, IDLE SLOT section of
Table A-67.
14. Verify that the measured values in Step 12 and Step 13 are within specifications.
