Taking Measurements

3- 92

YBT250 Field Transmitter & Interference Tester User Manual

Figure 3- 44: A typical Peak to Average Power Ratio display

Measuring Carrier Frequency

Requires option AR1, IR1, CR1, or WR1

The Carrier Frequency measurement actually displays three
measurements: carrier frequency and frequency error expressed in
frequency and parts per million (ppm)

.

cdma2000 and 1xEV-DO

measurements also display the signal PN offset value.

NOTE

. To improve carrier frequency measurement accuracy, connect

a cable from the BTS transmitter External Frequency Reference
signal (see page 2--25 for a list of acceptable frequencies) to the
FREQUENCY REFERENCE INPUT connector of the YBT250. You
can also use a Tektronix YBGPS1 GPS Timing Reference to improve
carrier frequency measurement accuracy.

To measure the carrier frequency:

1.

Tap the

Measurement

button.

2.

Select a signal standard.

3.

Tap

Select Measurement...
