Introduction to WiMAX • IEEE 802.16-2004 standard for fixed broadband wireless access (FBWA) • 256-carrier OFDM; bandwidths 1.25 to 20 MHz; carrier frequencies up to 11 GHz • High data rates with wireless metropolitan area coverage • Deployed in TDD, FDD, or H-FDD configurations • Base Stations (BS) and Subscriber Stations (SS) in PMP configuration • TDD : BS and SS transmit at the same carrier frequency but at different time • FDD: BS and SS transmit on different carrier frequencies at the same time • H-FDD : BS and SS transmit at the same carrier frequency but one at a time
General WiMAX Frame Downlink (DL) sub frame :Preamble, Header and one or more DL bursts and transmitted by BS Uplink sub frame : Slots for initial ranging, BW request and data transmissions from various SSs.
Characterizing WiMAX Transmitters Base Station& Subscriber Station • Visualize the data as channel response, EVM/symbols, EVM/sub carriers etc. • Neutralizes front end non idealities from the IQ data • Dynamically detect CP used by Base station from the Base station Preamble • Analyze BS and SS transmission in H-FDD and TDD modes • Configure RF Settings (Trigger, Span, Ref level Acquisition length and Center frequency)
Characterizing WiMAX Receivers Base Station& Subscriber Station • Generate Real world WiMAX RF test signals • Transmit TDD frame for BS & SSs • All Measurements in one solution • Generate impaired RF/Baseband data • Transmit and Save the configured IQ data with MAC information • Configure downlink and uplink bursts profile • Configure RF Settings (Power level, Center frequency and Bandwidth)
