5. Set up the adjacent channel power measurement with the fast ACLR mode.
a) Set "Fast ACLR" softkey to "On".
b) Press the "Adjust Ref Level" softkey.
The R&S FSVA/FSV measures the power of the individual channels with zero
span. A root raised cosine filter with the parameters α = 0.22 and chip rate 3.84
Mcps (= receive filter for 3GPP W-CDMA) is used as channel filter.

Optimum Level Setting for ACP Measurements on W-CDMA Signals
The dynamic range for ACPR measurements is limited by the thermal noise floor, the
phase noise and the intermodulation (spectral regrowth) of the signal analyzer. The
power values produced by the R&S FSVA/FSV due to these factors accumulate line-
arly. They depend on the applied level at the input mixer. The three factors are shown
in the figure below for the adjacent channel (5 MHz carrier offset).
