95-percentile
The 95-percentile value is based on the distribution of the current values. Since the
phase error and the magnitude error can usually be assumed to be distributed around
zero, the 95-Percentile for these values is calculated based on their absolute values.
Again, the Rho value is handled differently. Here, the 5-Percentile is displayed, since
the lowest Rho value represents the worst case.
SCPI commands:
CALC:FEED 'TCAP'

TRAC:DATA

Bit Error Rate (BER)
A bit error rate (BER) measurement compares the transmitted bits with the determined
symbol decision bits:
BER = error bits / number of analyzed bits
As a prerequisite for this measurement, the R&S
FSV-K70 application must know
which bit sequences are correct, i.e. which bit sequences may occur. This knowledge
must be provided as a list of possible data sequences in xml format, which is loaded in
the R&S
FSV-K70 (see
Chapter 3.3.7, "Working With Known Data Files"
If such a file is loaded in the application, the BER result display is available.
Available for source types:
●
Modulation Accuracy
Note that this measurement may take some time, as each symbol decision must be
compared to the possible data sequences one by one.
The BER measurement is an indicator for the quality of the demodulated signal. High
BER values indicate problems such as:
●
inadequate demodulation settings
●
poor quality in the source data
●
false or missing sequences in the Known Data file
●
result range alignment leads to a mismatch of the input data with the defined
sequences
A BER value of 0.5 means that for at least one measurement no matching sequence
was found.
