3GPP Signal Analyzer Measurement Guide : W-CDMA/HSDPA Signal Analyzer : Demodulator : Code Domain Power (CDP) Setup
 
Code Domain Power (CDP) Setup
The Code Domain Power (CDP) display includes spreading factor (OVSF codes) 256 or 512 with zoom in on codes. The instrument can zoom to 32, 64 and 128 codes and the user can input the zoom code to start the zoom in from the entered OVSF codes. The demodulator also displays CPICH, P‑CCPCH, S‑CCPCH, PICH, P‑SCH and S‑SCH power in the table format. For W-CDMA/HSDPA Demodulator, the HSDPA codes are also displayed.
Code Domain Power (CDP) Procedure
1. Set the measurement frequency using one of the methods listed in the User Guide.
2. Press the Setup main menu key.
3. Press the Scrambling Code submenu key to select Auto so that the scrambling code is automatically detected.
4. The instrument has automatic external reference frequency detection or, if equipped, activate GPS and synchronize the instrument to High Internal accuracy.
