16 Using BERT for N5172B/82B with Option UN7
Bit Error Rate Test (BERT) allows you to perform Bit Error Rate (BER) analysis on digital
communications equipment. This enables functional and parametric testing of receivers and
components including sensitivity and selectivity.
The features described in this chapter are available only in Keysight N5172B EXG and N5182B MXG
X-Series signal generators with Option UN7 Internal Bit Error Rate Analyzer (BERT).
The following options are recommended:
— Option 653 or 655 (N5172B) -- Internal Baseband Generator
— Option 656 or 657 (N5182B) -- Internal Baseband Generator
— Option 431 -- Custom Digital Modulation
To use Bit Error Rate Test (BERT), it must be selected as the
current Baseband Operating Mode.
Baseband Operating Mode is available on all Keysight N5172B EXG and N5182B MXG
X-Series signal generators that have installed firmware version B.01.70 or later.
