Frequency Error Average

When count is greater than one, the frequency error value is averaged over past measurements. If count is one, then no averaging occurs.

If Count = N, and M is the number of measured values,
then when M < N:
FE next = (FE1 + FE2 + … + FEN–1)/(N–1).

When M >= N:
FE next = [(N–1) * FE previous + FE new]/N

Note: This is commonly called a modified (or running) moving average.

Component Carrier Signal Standard

Selects the desired signal standard from the list. The <string> argument is the name of the desired signal standard as displayed in the instrument’s current signal standard list. The list can be displayed on the instrument by choosing the Signal Standard submenu button in the Freq menu. The list can also be downloaded remotely and viewed using Anritsu Master Software Tools. For example, if the desired Signal Standard is P-GSM 900 - Uplink, then the value of the <string> argument would be “P-GSM 900 - Uplink”.

The query form of this command returns the name of the currently selected Signal Standard from the list.

Coverage Mapping Measurement Parameter

Coverage Mapping Thresholds

The above commands set/return the threshold levels used in coverage mapping.

There are five defined levels: Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair and Poor. For each level, there is a threshold power that sets the lower boundary for that level. Setting the Excellent threshold to –100.0 dBm, for instance, means that measurement greater than –100.0 dBm will be considered excellent in the report and as display on the coverage map.

Thresholds are set as a comma separated list of power values in order from Excellent to Poor. No units are used, and when setting the threshold values, enclose the all five values in a single set of quote markers.

Sending: SENSe:OTA:MAPping:SSSPower:THREShold?
Returns: –107.0,–110.0,–114.0,–117.0,–120.0

Sending: SENSe:OTA:MAPping:SSSPower:THREShold “–100.0,–103.0,–104.5,–112.0,–118.0 “

Sets the S‑SS Power thresholds to:

Excellent: 100.0 dBm
Very Good: 103.0 dBm
Good: 104.5 dBm
Fair: 112.0 dBm
Poor: 118.0 dBm

Amplitude Range

Recalculates amplitude range. Note that issuing this command will set the automatic dynamic range OFF.

Amplitude, Adjust Range

Automatic Amplitude Range

Sets the automatic amplitude range. Setting the value to ON or 1 will result in the amplitude range being coupled to the detected input signal level. Setting the value to OFF or 0 will result in the input attenuation being uncoupled from the input signal level. That is, changing the input signal level will not change the amplitude range. When this command is issued, the amplitude range itself will not change. The default value is ON. That is, sending :SENS:POW:RANG:AUTO is equivalent to sending :SENS:POW:RANG:AUTO ON.
