Reporting for duty as the first commercially available test application for the Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) standard, the N5120A Baseband Studio off-the-shelf software provides the REC signals necessary for stimulating 3G base station RE. It requires the company's N5101A PCI card and the N5103A high-speed serial interface card for operation. The software supports bi-directional uplink/downlink operation, making it suitable for concurrent testing of receive/transmit functions, and a real-time BER/BLER capability accommodates receiver-sensitivity tests. Users can set up carriers and waveforms to send to the RE (downlink), and incoming CPRI data from the RE can be directed to a disk file, vector signal analysis program, or BER-measurement utility (uplink). Users can also send and receive control and management data to and from the RE. Depending on licensing and test options, prices range from no charge to $7,500.
