2.9.4.3 Menu MOVING DELAY
In the MOVING DELAY mode, the Fading Simulator simulates the dynamic propagation conditions
according to test case 3GPP, 25.104-320, Annex B3.
2 paths are simulated; the delay of path 1 remains unchanged, the delay of path 2 slowly moves to and
fro sinusoidally. The two paths have no fading profile (non-fading), have the same level, the same phase
and have no Doppler shift.

For further tests, DELAY MEAN and the variation parameters can be modified. The two paths can be
levelled differently.

IEC/IEEE-bus command :SOUR:FSIM:MDEL:STAT ON | OFF
IGNORE RF
CHANGES < 5%
When switched on, frequency variations below 5% are ignored. RF hopping is
thus faster than 3 ms. IEC/IEEE-bus command :SOUR:FSIM:IGN:RFCH ON
