The signal generator feeds the baseband signal digitally to the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX, i.e. in
the R&S specific I/Q format. The R&S
EX-IQ-BOX converts the signal format into the
CPRI transmission protocol with the aid of the breakout board. The CPRI link transmits
the I/Q baseband signal and also control & management information to the RRH, i.e. the
CPRI RE Device.
The RRH device extracts the baseband signal from the CPRI link and executes an I/Q
modulation to a certain carrier frequency. The resulting RF signal is sent to the R&S signal
analyzer, to perform various performance measurements.

Setup of the Devices
Cabling
1. Connect the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX to the AC supply.
The R&S
EX-IQ-BOX is power supplied with an external power supply unit and a
separate power cable.
2. Connect the CPRI breakout board to the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX, i.e. at the Z-DOK user
interface connector.
The R&S
EX-IQ-BOX powers the CPRI breakout board via the user interface.
3. Establish the connection between the BBOUT of the R&S signal generator and the
DIG IQ IN/OUT 1 of the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX.
Currently, the interface DIG IQ IN/OUT 1 is firmly set to input.
