Instruments with these options can measure both FDD and TDD Fixed WiMAX networks. They can measure Fixed WiMAX BTS transmitter performance over the air by connecting an antenna to the instrument or by connecting the BTS equipment directly to the instrument.
Instruments with these options can measure TDD Mobile WiMAX networks. OTA, RF, and demodulator measurements require that an antenna be attached to the RF In (50 Ohm) connector on the instrument.
Attach a coupler or attenuator to the same connector to make measurements directly from the WiMAX BTS transmitter.
Caution
The maximum (without damage) input level of the RF In port is + 30 dBm. To prevent damage, always use a coupler or a high power attenuator.
Selecting a Measurement Mode
Select either Fixed WiMAX Analyzer or Mobile WiMAX Analyzer mode by pressing Shift and then the Mode (9) button to open the Mode Selector dialog box. Highlight the desired measurement mode using the Up or Down arrow keys and press Enter.
