1xEV-DO X-Series Measurement App, Traditional UI N9076EM0D

Technical Overview

– Perform 1xEV-DO forward and reverse link transmitter tests per 3GPP2 standards

– Support 1xEV-DO Rel. 0, Rev. A and Rev. B for single and multi carriers

– Full power and spectrum suite measurements with Pass/Fail indicator

– Use hardkey/softkey manual user interface and SCPI remote user interface

– Flexible licensing provides the option of using perpetual or time based licenses with one or multiple signal analyzers

1xEV-DO Measurement Application

The 1xEV-DO measurement application transforms the X-Series signal analyzers into 3GPP2 standard-based transmitter testers. The application provides fast one-button RF conformance measurements to help you design, evaluate, and manufacture your cdma2000® 1xEV-DO base station (Access Network) and mobile station (Access Terminal) devices. The measurement application is fully standard compliant to the 3GPP2 (Rel. 0, Rev. A and Rev. B) helping you to check your 1xEV-DO design with confidence and support manufacturing with a single application covering 1xEV-DO technologies for production.

X-Series measurement applications can help you:

– Gain more insight into device performance with intuitive display and graphs for your application. Select from our library of over 25 different measurement applications.

– Ensure that your design meets the latest standard. Updates are made to the X-Series measurement applications as standards evolve.

– Apply the same measurement science across multiple hardware platforms for consistent measurement results over your design cycle from R&D to production.

– Choose the license structure that meets your business needs. We provide a range of license types (node-locked, transportable, floating or USB portable) and license terms (perpetual or time-based).

1xEV-DO Overview

1xEV-DO is standardized by 3rd Generation Partnership Project 2 (3GPP2) as an evolution of cdma2000 technologies that would support high data rates. The 1xEV-DO name means 1x Evolution-Data Optimized or 1x Evolution-Data Only. It uses multiplexing techniques, including code division multiple access (CDMA) as well as time division multiple access (TDMA), to maximize both individual users throughput and the overall system throughput. 1xEV-DO is spectrally compatible with cdma2000, thus the same amplifier, combiners, and antennas can be used on both 1xEV-DO and cdma2000 systems to reduce the installation cost of 1xEV-DO.

There have been several revisions of the 1xEV-DO standard, starting with Release 0 (Rel. 0), which provides air interface data rates of up to 2.4 Mbps on forward links and 153.2 kbps on reverse links. 1xEV-DO Rev. A is a successor to 1xEV-DO Rev. 0. It offers improved peak data rates on both the forward and reverse links. On forward links, peak data rates increase to 3.072 Mbps, while reverse link peak data rates have increased to 1.8 Mbps. Rev. A also offers higher sector capacity within the same 1.25 MHz channel, allowing operators to support more users and richer applications.

1xEV-DO Rev. B is a multi-carrier evolution of the Rev. A. It delivers dramatically improved data rates by aggregation of multiple carriers and high order modulation (64QAM). Typical deployments are expected to include three carriers for a peak rate of 14.7 Mbps on forward links and 5.4 Mbps on reverse links, making it possible to enable new services such as high-definition video streaming. 1xEV-DO Rev. B has backward compatibility with both 1xEV-DO Rel. 0 and Rev. A, allowing Rev. B carriers to continue to support older Rel. 0 and Rev. A devices.
