get_cdma()float[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:CDMA
value: float = driver.configure.rfPower.get_cdma()

Sets the total CDMA output power. The value range depends on the RF output used and the external attenuation set. The ‘CDMA Power’ level does not include the AWGN power level. The allowed value range can be calculated as follows: Range (CDMAPower) = Range (Output Power) - External Attenuation - AWGNPower Range (Output Power) = -130 dBm to 0 dBm (RFx COM) or -120 dBm to 13 dBm (RFx OUT) ; please also notice the ranges quoted in the data sheet.

return

cdma_power: Range: see above , Unit: dBm

get_epmode()RsCmwCdma2kSig.enums.ExpectedPowerMode[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:EPMode
value: enums.ExpectedPowerMode = driver.configure.rfPower.get_epmode()

Configures the input path of the RF analyzer according to the expected output power of the MS under test. The R&S CMW assumes a 9 dB peak-to-average ratio (crest factor) of the received CDMA2000 signal and allows for an additional reserve. See also: ‘Expected Power Mode’

return

exp_power_mode: MANual | OLRule | MAX | MIN MANual: Assume that the MS transmits at the fixed ‘Manual Expected Power’ value and configure the R&S CMW input path accordingly. OLRule: Open loop rule: Assume that the MS transmits according to the open loop power rule: The sum of the mean input power at the MS receiver plus the mean output power at the MS transmitter is maintained at a constant ‘power offset’ value: input power + output power = power offset. The power offset depends on the band class; see 3GPP2 C.S0057-D. MAX: Maximum: Assume that MS transmits at its maximum output power (RMS value ≤+23 dBm) . MIN: Minimum: Assume that MS transmits at its minimum output power (RMS value ≤–47 dBm) .

get_expected()float[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:EXPected
value: float = driver.configure.rfPower.get_expected()

Queries the calculated value of the expected input power from the MS. The input power range is stated in the data sheet.

return

exp_nom_power: Unit: dBm

get_manual()float[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:MANual
value: float = driver.configure.rfPower.get_manual()

Set the value of expected power of the MS to transmit. Only applicable if for parameter ‘Expected Power Mode’ (method RsCmwCdma2kSig.Configure.RfPower.epmode) Manual is selected.

return

manual_exp_power: Range: -47 dBm to 55 dBm, Unit: dBm

get_output()float[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:OUTPut
value: float = driver.configure.rfPower.get_output()

Queries the total output power. The total output power includes the AWGN power level. The allowed value: Range (Output Power) = -130 dBm to 0 dBm (RFx COM) or -120 dBm to 13 dBm (RFx OUT) ; please also notice the ranges quoted in the data sheet.

return

output_power: Range: see above , Unit: dBm

set_cdma(cdma_power: float)None[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:CDMA
driver.configure.rfPower.set_cdma(cdma_power = 1.0)

Sets the total CDMA output power. The value range depends on the RF output used and the external attenuation set. The ‘CDMA Power’ level does not include the AWGN power level. The allowed value range can be calculated as follows: Range (CDMAPower) = Range (Output Power) - External Attenuation - AWGNPower Range (Output Power) = -130 dBm to 0 dBm (RFx COM) or -120 dBm to 13 dBm (RFx OUT) ; please also notice the ranges quoted in the data sheet.

# SCPI: CONFigure:CDMA:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFPower:EPMode
driver.configure.rfPower.set_epmode(exp_power_mode = enums.ExpectedPowerMode.MANual)

Configures the input path of the RF analyzer according to the expected output power of the MS under test. The R&S CMW assumes a 9 dB peak-to-average ratio (crest factor) of the received CDMA2000 signal and allows for an additional reserve. See also: ‘Expected Power Mode’
