The "System Configuration > Fading/Baseband Configuration" dialog displays the
current signal routing. The instrument works in the default "Standard" mode.

Figure 3-17: System Configuration in the default Standard Mode
1 = Standard or advanced mode; the last is required for configuration of complex LxMxN MIMO scenar-
ios
2 = Simplified preview diagram with a description of the common application for the particular configura-
tion
2. Open "System Configuration > I/Q Stream Mapper" to obtain an overview of the
current distribution and mapping of the I/Q streams to the output connectors, see
also "To map the I/Q stream and define the output connector" on page 67.
3. Open "System Configuration > External RF and I/Q Instruments" to gain informa-
tion on the current setup.
The tab comprises the additional settings provided to simplify the configuration of
connected instruments, like configuring the connectors, establishing a connection
to the instruments, or controlling these instruments.
In this test setup, no further instruments are connected.
To enable a 2x2 MIMO configuration (1x2x2 "Fading and Baseband Configura-
tion")
1. In the "System Configuration > Fading/Baseband Configuration" dialog, select
"Mode > Advanced" and enable the following settings:
a) "Entities (Users, Cells) > 1", "Basebands (Tx Antennas) > 2", "Streams (Rx
Antennas) > 2"
b) Select "BB Source Config > Coupled Sources"
c) Observe the signal routing displayed on the preview diagram. Does it match
with the expected signal routing?
d) Select "Apply" to confirm the configuration.
