Signal Studio software is a flexible suite of signal-creation tools that will reduce the time you spend on signal simulation. For LTE and LTEAdvanced, Signal Studio’s performance-optimized reference signals — validated by Keysight — enhance the characterization and verification of your devices. Through its application-specific user-interface you’ll create standards-based and custom test signals for component, transmitter, and receiver test. Component and transmitter test Signal Studio’s basic capabilities use waveform playback mode to create and customize waveform files needed to test components and transmitters. Its user-friendly interface lets you configure signal parameters, calculate the resulting waveforms and download files for playback. The applications for these partially-coded, statistically correct signals include: –– Parametric test of components, such as amplifiers and filters –– Performance characterization and verification of RF sub-systems Receiver test Signal Studio’s advanced capabilities enable you to create fully channel-coded signals for receiver bit-error-rate (BER), block-error-rate (BLER), packet-error-rate (PER), or frame error rate (FER) analysis. Applications include: –– Performance verification and functional test of receivers, during RF/baseband integration and system verification –– Coding verification of baseband subsystems, including FPGAs, ASICs, and DSPs More advanced capabilities operate in real-time mode, which is used to define the parameters of nonrepeating and dynamically changing signals needed for receiver testing. Its graphical interface provides a direct instrument connection for parameter transfer and closed-loop or interactive control during signal generation. Apply your signals in real-world testing Once you have setup your signals in Signal Studio, you can download them to a variety of Keysight instruments. Signal Studio software complements these platforms by providing a cost-effective way to tailor them to your test needs in design, development and production test. –– Vector signal generators –– MXG X-Series –– EXG X-Series –– ESG –– First-generation MXG –– M9381A PXIe VSG –– EXT wireless communication test set –– PXB baseband generator and channel emulator –– M9420A VXT PXIe vector transceiver –– M8190A Wideband AWG –– SystemVue simulation software Typical measurements Test components with basic capabilities: –– ACLR –– CCDF –– EVM –– Modulation accuracy –– Channel power –– Occupied bandwidth Verify receivers with advanced capabilities: –– Sensitivity –– Selectivity –– Blocking –– Intermodulation 03 | Keysight | Signal Studio for LTE/LTE-Advanced FDD/TDD N7624B/N7625B - Technical Overview Component and Transmitter Test Figure 1. Typical component test configuration using Signal Studio’s basic capabilities with a Keysight X-Series signal generator and an X-Series signal analyzer Signal Studio’s basic capabilities enable you to create and customize LTE and LTE-Advanced waveforms to characterize the power and modulation performance of your components and transmitters. Easy manipulation of a variety of signal parameters, including transmission bandwidth, cyclic prefix, and modulation type, simplifies signal creation. –– Create spectrally-correct signals for ACLR, channel power, spectral mask, and spurious testing –– Set parameters such as channel power and data channel modulation type (BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM, 256QAM) for modulation verification and analysis, such as EVM tests –– Use pre-defined E-UTRA test models (E-TM) for downlink, reference measurement channels (RMC) for uplink –– Configure multi-carrier waveforms to simulate multi-user, multi-cell signals –– View CCDF, spectrum, time domain, and power envelope graphs to investigate the effects of power ramps, modulation formats, power changes, clipping, and other effects on device performance –– Generate slot length-based waveforms to help make a fast PA tests with a waveform sequence –– Dynamic TDD (eIMTA) for uplink and downlink –– TDD-FDD carrier aggregation for downlink –– VoLTE: TTI bundling with enhanced HARQ (ARB) for uplink –– Multi-UE simulation update (Excel import/export) for uplink Multi-Standard Radio (MSR) Testing Today’s modern base stations support multiple radio access technologies. The 3GPP TS37.141 Rel-9 specification defines how to test these multi-standard base station transmitters and receivers. To address the challenges of testing multi-standard components and receivers, Signal Studio for LTE and LTE-Advanced FDD/TDD enables you to import W-CDMA/HSPA, GSM/ EDGE, cdma2000/1xEV-DO, TD-SCDMA, LTE TDD/FDD, and WLAN waveforms from other Signal Studio products. The new waveform library manager, which requires Option JFP, can help you manage imported waveforms. Multiple sample rate waveforms can be stored to help shorten the time it takes to combine multi-carrier waveforms with different sample rates. 04 | Keysight | Signal Studio for LTE/LTE-Advanced FDD/TDD N7624B/N7625B - Technical Overview Receiver Test DUT: BTS or MS receiver RF front end RF Demodulator IF Decoder BER/BLER/ FER/PER analyzer IQ Figure 3. Generate fully channel-coded signals to evaluate the throughput of your receiver with Keysight XSeries signal generators and Signal Studio’s advanced capabilities. Signal Studio’s advanced capabilities address applications in LTE receiver test, including the verification of baseband designs and the integration of the baseband and RF modules. Using waveform playback mode with the capability to generate up to 1024 frames enables transport-channel coding to validate eNB and UE receiver characteristics and performance. The real-time mode enables you to define the parameters of nonrepeating signals and provides a direct instrument connection to dynamically change signal parameters and respond to closed-loop feedback. eNB receiver testing –– Choose from a variety of pre-defined fixed reference channel (FRC) configurations –– Create PUSCH sounding reference signals (SRS), including frequency hopping and UL control information (UCI) multiplexing –– Use the PUCCH wizard to create multi-user configurations –– Customize RV index sequence for HARQ retransmission –– Dynamically configure uplink 2x2 MIMO signals based on HARQ and Timing Advanced feedback with real-time signal generation –– UL 4x4 MIMO –– Virtual cell ID enables CoMP environment for eNB and Small Cell test Conformance test made easy with N7649B Test Case Manager Test Case Manager (TCM) provides a simplified user interface for quick and easy set-up of standard-compliant conformance test configurations for eNB receiver tests. With TCM, simply choose one of the test cases from TS36.141 clause 7 and clause 8 from the tree menu and specify a few parameters such as eNB type, carrier frequency, etc. TCM then automatically generates standard-compliant wanted and interference waveforms and sets up the signal generators according to the standard requirement.

UL 4x4 MIMO for eNB receiver testing 05 | Keysight | Signal Studio for LTE/LTE-Advanced FDD/TDD N7624B/N7625B - Technical Overview Multi-UE Simulation for eNB receiver capacity testing Base station R&D engineers request to allow simulating large number of UE to test LTE eNB capacity. Usually the requirement is to test with hundreds of UE which shares same frequency bandwidth. The eNB under capacity test shall be able to distinguish different UE and recognize their RNTI and other physical layer characteristics. Traditional eNB capacity test solution is to use hundreds of real UE, or a UE simulator to generate multiple UE’s environment. Signal Studio’s Multi-UE Simulation option adds “ARB based multi-UE simulation” capability which allows for a single waveform generation to simulate up to 100 UEs with each UE’s modulation type, RNTI, resource block allocation etc. Download only one waveform into one X-Series signal generator, you can get multiple UE’s simulation without using expensive and complicated UE simulator solution. An easy-to-use Multi-UE Wizard is provided for quick access to 100 UE’s configuration. UE receiver testing –– Choose a pre-defined fixed reference channel (FRC) configuration for early verification of baseband –– Create downlink control information (DCI) coding, automatically, based on PDSCH allocation, UE scheduling and random access, and UL power control –– Define your own system information block (SIB) and automatically configure master information block (MIB) –– Select transmission modes 1 through 10, including transmitter diversity and spatial multiplexing, with up to 8x8 MIMO configuration –– Generate Inter-band carrier aggregation signals with cross-carrier scheduling applied, in conjunction with up to 8x8 MIMO in each inter-band –– Perform HARQ testing with up to 15 simulated retransmission and user-definable RV index sequence –– Test E-MBMS with MCH/PMCH and MBSFN RS –– Simulate HetNet environment simulation with ABS for testing femto cells and also UE Figure 5.
