Internal Digital Modulation Quality
(Option 402 Only)
NOTE This test is only required for instruments with Option 402.
This automated test verifies the RF modulation quality of the signal generator’s internal I/Q modulation. A
vector signal analyzer is connected to the signal generator’s RF output. The internal baseband generator
modulates the RF carrier in each of the available digital modulation formats. The vector signal analyzer
measures the appropriate error parameter for the modulation generated (EVM for PHS, PDC, EDGE,
and NADC formats; global phase error for GSM format).
Recommended Equipment
• Agilent 89441A vector signal analyzer with Options AYA, AYH, AY7, AY9, B7A, UFG or UTH
