Measuring the Upstream RF Signal
Step 1
Display a signal complete with preamble and upstream data transmission information similar to the
resulting signal from
Step 3
through
Step 10
under the
“Measuring the Upstream RF Signal Using a
Spectrum Analyzer” section on page 4-34
. Your spectrum analyzer should display a signal similar to the
one in
Figure 4-46
.
Figure 4-46
Preamble Amplitude Before Resolution and Video Bandwidth Reduction
Note
Figure 4-46
is a display from a standard spectrum analyzer. The following figures,
Figure 4-47
through
Figure 4-50
, are taken from a vector signal analyzer. If you do not have access to a vector signal analyzer,
or wish to skip the following section describing its use when viewing your upstream signal, proceed to
Step 3
.
Step 2
(Optional) View your upstream signal using a vector signal analyzer such as the Agilent 89441A.
The advantage of displaying these signals with the vector signal analyzer is that you can view them over
the time domain for a specified time interval. In addition, the vector signal analyzer enables you to
measure the digital channel power of a very short duration data transmission, like the preamble of a
digital signal.
a.
Set up your vector signal analyzer to view both the “frequency” domain and “time” domain of your
upstream signal. Your vector signal analyzer should display a pair of signals similar to those in
Figure 4-47
