Digital Standard 3GPP W-CDMA (FDD)
The SMIQ can generate 3GPP W-CDMA signals provided that the SMIQ is equipped with the following
options: Modulation Coder (SMIQB20), Data Generator (SMIQB11) and Digital Standard 3GPP W-CDMA
(SMIQB45). Section 2.14.1 gives an overview of this mobile transmission method. Section 2.14.2
describes the associated operating functions. Section 2.14.3 provides in-depth information about the
generation of 3GPP W-CDMA signals.
Chapter 2.15 describes all enhanced functions for digital standard 3GPP W-CDMA (option SMIQB48).
2.14.1
Description of Mobile Radio Transmission Method 3GPP W-CDMA
W-CDMA (wideband CDMA) designates a group of mobile radio transmission methods which differ in
numerous details. The SMIQ provides a version developed by the 3 GPP standard organization ("3
rd
Generation Partnership Project").
This version can be regarded as an amalgamation of the IMT-2000 proposals by
•
Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB)
•
The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)
and is thus also the successor of versions to 3GPP 2.0.0, 2.1.0, 3.1.1,3.2.0 and 3.4.0 implemented in
former firmware versions.
The current version (SIMQ firmware version 5.70 or higher) supports W-CDMA according to 3GPP in
version 4.1.0 (FDD mode). It is compatible with "Release 1999".

The SMIQ simulates W-CDMA 3GPP at the physical channel layer. The following description is
therefore limited to this layer.
