Real-time

Spectrum Analyzersmeasure your complex RF signals

As a designer or researcher working on advanced RF applica-tions, you need efficient tools that can trigger, capture andanalyze the spectral behavior of rapidly changing signals over

relatively long time periods.

Today’s broad ranges of RF applications are as diverse as spectrum monitoring and 3G development, but each has

a common denominator: the signal is present one moment, absent the next andvariable over time. These signals use modulation, frequency hopping, bursting and othertechniques and continue to elude swept spectrum analyzers.

Real-time Spectrum Analyzers Trigger, Capture andAnalyze RF Signals Enabling In-depth Analysis ofToday’s Cutting-edge RF Applications

Our RSA2200A and RSA3300A Series meets these demands by offering unmatched synergy between triggering, capture and analysis features. Real-time frequency domain triggering and other intuitive trigger modes allow the user to trigger on acquisition based on specificevents in the frequency domain. Once triggered, the RSA captures aseamless time record of a span of RF frequencies all at once. Thisrecord of real-time signal behavior supports powerful analysis tools suchas the spectrogram display, which plots frequency and power changesover time – many minutes of time in some cases. The frequency, timeand modulation domains are all visible in time-correlated displays, whilethe spectrogram itself summarizes all aspects of the signal, enabling an intuitive, three-dimensional look at the time-varying signal behavior,otherwise unseen in traditional frequency domain displays.

There is a reason why Tektronix has been the worldwide leader in oscilloscopes for more than55 years. In fact, there are several. Tektronix oscilloscopes are powerful, easy to use, and flexi-ble. They allow you to create better designs, characterize circuit performance with greater precision, easily verify system compliance, and streamline troubleshooting.

Simply put, Tektronix oscilloscopes enable you to do a better job, in less time.

With bandwidths from 60 MHz to 8 GHz on real-time oscilloscopes and beyond 70 GHz on digital sampling oscilloscopes, Tektronix offers the widest selection of oscilloscopes in the world.From immensely powerful instruments that outpace today’s fastest signals to handheld tools thatare ultra portable and high in value, there is an instrument for every design and user need.

A Tektronix digital phosphor oscilloscope (DPO) is ideal for those who need the best design andtroubleshooting tool for a wide range of applications. Exemplary for communication mask test-ing, digital debug of intermittent signals, repetitive digital design, and timing applications, theseoscilloscopes dedicate specialized ASIC hardware to the task of acquiring waveform images.This provides the user with enough power to acquire the fastest waveforms quickly – up to400,000+ waveforms per second – and with concise clarity.

Tektronix digital storage oscilloscopes (DSO) allow you to capture and view events that may happen only once – known as transients. A DSO is ideal for low-repetition-rate or single-shot,high-speed, multi-channel design applications. In the real world of digital design, an engineerusually examines four or more signals, making the DSO a critical companion.

Tektronix sampling oscilloscopes are ideal tools to accurately capture those frequency compo-nents that are much higher than the oscilloscope’s sample rate. These instruments are capableof measuring signals of up to an order of magnitude faster than any other oscilloscope. Theycan achieve bandwidth and high-speed timing ten times higher than other oscilloscopes forrepetitive signals.

Tektronix also offers the highest performance and best value portable oscilloscopes on the market. These rugged, battery-operated instruments feature isolated channels at full bandwidthwith digital real-time sampling technology. They are also the only portable, full-featured oscillo-scopes to offer automated power measurements, statistics and harmonics measurements.

In addition to the industry’s best range of performance and functionality, Tektronix oscilloscopesare more flexible and easy to use than ever. With new features to Tektronix’ OpenChoice®

oscilloscope software, programming and analysis tasks are vastly simplified. These new additionsinclude industry-standard Interchangeable Virtual Instrument (IVI) drivers that bring a uniformprogramming environment to Tektronix open Windows oscilloscopes. The new OpenChoice environment simplifies interaction with applications such as National Instrument’s LabVIEW,MATLAB, and others. Added utilities include a Windows-based report generator that automaticallycreates customized reports.

With an optimum balance between performance and simplicity – and tools that span the entiredesign spectrum – Tektronix oscilloscopes are able to meet your every need.

A DPO Provides a GreaterLevel of Insight into Complex Signals

The TDS3000B Series DPO delivers 3,600 wfms/scontinuous waveform capture rate to captureglitches and infrequent events three times fasterthan comparable oscilloscopes. Some oscillo-scope vendors claim high waveform capture rates for short bursts of time, but only DPOs candeliver these fast waveform capture rates on acontinuous basis – saving minutes, hours or evendays by quickly revealing the nature of faults soadvanced triggers can be applied to isolate them.

In addition, the TDS3000B DPO’s real-time intensity grading highlights the details about the“history” of a signal’s activity, making it easier tounderstand the characteristics of the waveformsyou’ve captured.

Higher Speeds Demand Greater Bandwidth

You face faster clock rates and edge speeds,increasingly complex signals and mounting time-to-market pressures. The higher the bandwidth ofyour oscilloscope, the more accurate the repro-duction of your signal. The TDS3000B Seriesoffers a wide range of bandwidths from 100 MHzto 600 MHz to best suit the needs of your mostdemanding projects, so that you can completeyour tasks on time and with confidence.

Quickly Debug andCharacterize Signals with DRT Sampling Technology and Sin(x)/x Interpolation

The TDS3000B Series combines unique digitalreal-time (DRT) sampling technology with sin(x)/xinterpolation to allow you to accurately character-ize a wide range of signal types on all channelssimultaneously. This sampling technology makesit possible to capture high-frequency information,such as glitches and edge anomalies, that eludesother oscilloscopes in its class, while sin(x)/xinterpolation ensures precise reconstruction ofeach waveform. The result – a complete view ofyour signal to speed debug and characterization.

Enhanced TroubleshootingAbility

WaveAlert™ waveform anomaly detection speedsyour troubleshooting tasks by helping you findthose elusive problems faster. WaveAlert detec-tion monitors the incoming signals on all chan-nels and will detect and highlight any waveformthat deviates from the normal waveform beingacquired. Because the TDS3000B oscilloscopecan stop acquisition, sound a beep, make a hardcopy or save the waveform when it detects ananomaly, you can run tests over long time periods– even unattended – to find those challenging,very infrequent failures.

WaveAlert™ waveform anomaly detection alertsyou to any waveform that deviates from the“normal” input, such as the glitch on channel 2.

An increase in performance from 500 to 600 MHz bandwidth offers a 20% improvementin rise-time measurement accuracy, as illustrated with these measurements of a 20 ps rising edge. The lower trace is a reference waveform, showing the rise-time performance of a 500 MHz oscilloscope.The upper trace shows the improved performance of a 600 MHz oscilloscope.

Even with 2 GS/s sample rate, which exceedsthe Nyquist requirement of 2X oversampling,this 500 MHz oscilloscope with linear interpola-tion does not provide accurate reconstruction ofthe same 500 MHz sine wave.

The TDS3054B’s 5 GS/s real-time sample rateand sin(x)/x interpolation ensure accuratereconstruction of a 500 MHz sine wave.

MyScope Custom Control Windows

The TDS5000B Series offers the industry’s firsteasily customizable oscilloscope user interface.MyScope control windows is a revolutionary newfeature that allows you to build your own controlwindows with only the controls, features andcapabilities that you care about and are importantin your job. For the first time, you can pull all thefunctionality you need from all the various parts of the oscilloscope into one control window,effectively creating your own personalized “tool-box” of oscilloscope features. No longer do youneed to search through menus for features or re-learn how to drive the oscilloscope after abreak from the lab.

MyScope control windows enable you to spendyour valuable time focused on the task at handrather than navigating menus on your oscillo-scope. And creating these custom control win-dows isn’t a long drawn-out or complex process.They are easily created in a matter of minutesusing a simple, visual, drag and drop process.Once created, these custom control windows are easily accessed through a dedicated MyScopebutton and menu selection on the oscilloscopebutton/menu bar, just like any other control window.You can make an unlimited number of custom con-trol windows, enabling each person who uses theoscilloscope, in a shared environment, to have

their own unique control window. Since the control windows are stored as files on the harddrive, they can easily be transferred to otherTDS5000B Series oscilloscopes, or they can evenbe e-mailed to a co-worker around the world whenthe need arises. MyScope control windows willbenefit all oscilloscope users, from eliminating the ramp-up time that many face when returningto the lab after not using an oscilloscope for awhile, to the power user who can now operate far more efficiently. Everything you need is foundin one control window rather than having to constantly navigate through menu after menu to repeat similar tasks.

Digital Phosphor Oscilloscopes TDS5000B Series

Performance The TDS5000B Series digital phosphor oscillo-scopes (DPO) deliver up to 1 GHz bandwidth,5 GS/s real-time sample rate, 16 M record length,and a suite of advanced triggers, enabling you tocapture and characterize even your mostdemanding signals. DPOs provide unmatchedinsight into signal behavior by displaying, storingand analyzing complex signals in real-time usingthree dimensions of signal information: amplitude,time and distribution of amplitude over time. TheTDS5000B Series DPO, enabled by Tektronix proprietary DPX® acquisition technology, deliversgreater than 100,000 waveforms per second capture rates. Some oscilloscope venders claimhigh waveform capture rates for short bursts oftime, but only DPOs, enabled by DPX technology,can deliver these fast waveform capture rates ona sustained basis – saving minutes, hours or evendays by quickly revealing the nature of faults sosophisticated trigger modes can be applied to iso-late them.

OpenChoice® Architecture The TDS5000B Series includes open access tothe MS Windows 2000 operating environment.While the instrument remains a dedicated oscillo-scope, the ability to access the MS Windowsdesktop creates a powerful tool. Built-in applica-tions such as WordPad, Paint and a Web browserallow you to concurrently maintain lab notes whileworking with the instrument. This saves time andeliminates error-prone steps associated withtransporting images for later report development.Other applications such as Microsoft Word orExcel, MATLAB and LabVIEW can be installed onthe instrument to accomplish local documentationor signal analysis. Installation of the oscilloscopeon the LAN enables Web-based informationbrowsing, e-mail exchange, printing and file sharing. Using the embedded PCI bus, waveformdata can be moved directly from acquisition toanalysis applications on the Windows desktop atmuch faster speeds than conventional GPIB transfers.

Pinpoint™ Triggering

The ability to trigger an oscilloscope on events ofinterest is paramount in high-speed debug andvalidation. Whether you’re trying to isolate a sys-tem error or need to isolate a section of interestof a complex signal for further analysis, Tektronix’new Pinpoint trigger system provides the solution.The Pinpoint trigger system uses SiliconGermanium (SiGe) technology to provide triggersensitivity of 7 GHz (at 2.5 divisions) for all triggertypes on both A and B trigger circuits. Captureglitches down to 100 ps wide, trigger jitter lessthan to 1.5 psRMS. In the past, advanced triggertypes were offered on a single event (A Event). Ifa delayed trigger (B Event) were used, it would belimited to edge triggering and not provide any wayto reset the trigger after the B-event occurred (ordidn’t occur). With Pinpoint triggering, the systemprovides the full suite of advance trigger types onboth A and B triggers. Reset triggering providesthe ability to reset the trigger circuit after a speci-fied time, so that even events in the most com-plex signals can be captured. Other oscilloscopesoffer less than 20 trigger combinations; whilePinpoint triggering offers over 1400 combinationsall at full bandwidth.

Unparalleled Analysis

Waveform data analysis can take many forms.Whether it’s a simple math expression, waveformmask testing, a pass/fail compliance test, or acustom application that you develop. TheTDS6000B Series offers the industry’s most com-prehensive set of analysis and compliance tools.

Embedded Analysis Tools

Embedded in the oscilloscope user interface is awide range of analysis tools including Cursors,Measurements, Math Equation Editor, Serial DataCommunications Mask Testing (with Opt. SM) andSpectrum Analysis.

Technology Specific Software Solutions

Validation, debug and compliance testing oftenrequire automated test tools that quickly analyzewaveform data and provide the answers youneed. The TDS6000B Series provides complete“turn-key” solutions for the most demandingtechnologies. The unique dual-processor systemoff-loads data intensive operations to the 2.8 GHz

Pentium 4 processor to provide jitter measure-ment efficiency*2 of greater than 100,000 TIEmeasurements per second using TDSJIT3 Jitterand Timing Analysis Software. Software optionsare also available for performing validation andcompliance measurements on emerging industrystandards.

OpenChoice® Analysis

Designing your own custom solution? The analysis and networking features ofOpenChoice software adds more flexibility toTektronix open Windows XP oscilloscopes:

Fast, PCI bus speed communication between thedata acquisition processor and the MicrosoftWindows desktop

ActiveX controls to connect the oscilloscope topopular Windows applications – WITHOUT leaving the application

PnP drivers to control the scope from LabVIEWand Lab Windows/CVI running directly on theoscilloscope, or running on external PCs

Support for application development environmentsincludes Visual BASIC, .NET, C, C++, MATLAB,LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI.

8 GHz Differential Probing

Most high-speed signals today are differential.The P7380SMA 8 GHz Differential ProbingSystem provides true differential SMA connection(for SMA connected test fixtures) to the deviceunder test. The optional P7380SMA DifferentialProbing System provides a 50 Ω per side termination network with a termination voltage.The termination voltage can be applied externallyor through the TekConnect® interface from theTDS6000B probe menu, or not used at all. A gainswitch provides two different sensitivity settings ofthe probe and an Aux Out provides an invertedversion of the signal for driving other equipment.The P7380SMA probing system used with theTDS6000B oscilloscopes provide an ideal solutionfor validation and compliance testing of highspeed serial data links. The P7380SMA uses second generation SiGe (Silicon Germanium)technology and is the first of a new family of differential probing solutions.

*2 Jitter measurement efficiency is a performance benchmark thatcombines acquisition and analysis performance. It is defined by thenumber of TIE (Time Interval Error) measurements per secondmade by an oscilloscope’s jitter measurement software. The signalunder test is a 4 Gb/s serial data bit stream with repeating CJTPAT(Compliance Jitter Test Pattern) from an AWG710 arbitrary wave-form generator. The acquisition system is set to 20 GS/s and 8 Meg record length.

Advanced Communications Signal Analysis Solutions



Both optical and electrical modules are availableand support clock recovery for a simple connectionto the DUT with optical, electrical, or electrical differential signals.

The optical modules provide complete optical testsolutions for standards of both telecom from 155Mbps to 43 Gbps and datacom (Fibre Channel,InfiniBand® and Gigabit Ethernet applications.Modules include an average power monitor,selectable number of data rate filters and/or a fullbandwidth path, and a choice of clock recoveryincluding a variable rate clock recovery.

The electrical modules include a variety of acquisition modules with bandwidths of up to70+ GHz, as well as Time Domain Reflectometry(TDR) modules.

In addition, specialized modules supporting features such as single-ended and differentialelectrical clock recovery, electrostatic protectionfor the TDR, connectivity to the popular TekConnect®

probing system, which brings the performance ofTektronix’ state-of-the-art probes for high imped-ance and differential probing to the CSA8200family. Low impedance probes for 50 Ω probingand for TDR probing are also available.

Compatibility

Building on the success of the TDS/CSA8000B,with which it is compatible, the CSA8200 acceptsall of the 80x00 modules, as well as the newest82A04 module. Future Tektronix 80x00 modulescan be used on both 8200 and 8000 Seriesinstruments; 82x00 modules are 8200 Series-specific. TDS8200 and CSA8200 instrumentshave the same features and capabilities.

Superior Performance

With its industry-best horizontal timebase stability,signal sensitivity and noise performance, theinstrument ensures the most accurate acquisitionof high-speed communications signals. Advancedanalysis benefits from the 200 fs acquisition jitterare made possible by the new 82A04 PhaseReference module.

In all modes the CSA8200’s multi-processorarchitecture, with dedicated per slot digital signalprocessors (DSPs), also provides industry-bestwaveform acquisition rates, shortening the testtimes necessary for reliable characterization andcompliance verification.

The CSA8200 supports the popular FrameScan®

acquisition mode, which can be used with patternsfrom DUTs, BERTs, etc. to isolate pattern dependenteffects in transmitters or show the bit sequencepreceding a mask violation. FrameScan alsoallows the user to view an averaged eye diagramfor applications such as evaluating Inter-Symbol-Interferences or separating pattern relatedDeterministic Jitter from Random Jitter. In con-junction with the new 82A04 Phase Referencemodule, FrameScan achieves new, unprecedentedlevels of performance. The instrument can acceptsignal modules, clock recovery module, and aPhase Reference module all at the same time, sothe clock recovery Clock Out signal can be usedby the Phase Reference module, to decrease thejitter of the acquired signal.

8200 Series SamplingOscilloscope Platform

The CSA8200 is built on Tektronix’ samplingoscilloscope platform that combines familiar MSWindows® 2000-based PC technologies withworld-class waveform acquisition technology.This platform provides a wide array of standard instrumentation and communications interfaces(such as GPIB, Parallel Printer Port, RS-232-Cand USB Serial Ports and an Ethernet LAN connection). In addition, the platform includesseveral mass storage devices (floppy disk,removable hard drive and CD-ROM). Gated trig-gering, a feature that allows the exclusion ofselected time periods from being measured, isoffered as an option. Finally, because the systemsupports an Open Windows environment, new levels of data analysis can be done directly on theinstrument using commercially available softwarepackages. Additionally, TekVISA,™ a standard software accessory, allows the instrument to beplaced under the control of software applications(e.g., LabVIEW, LabWindows, Visual Basic,Microsoft Excel, C, etc.) running on the instrument,or on external PC workstations network connectedto the instrument, without the need for a GPIBhardware interface. Plug-and-Play drivers forLabVIEW and other programs are also supplied.

The 82A04 Phase Reference Module extends thecapability of the CSA/TDS8200 CommunicationsSignal Analyzer mainframe by providing extremelylow jitter/low drift sample position information tothe mainframe. This sample position informationis based on the phase of a clock the user providesto the 82A04 input.

The benefits of using the sample position infor-mation based on a clock signal are two-fold – an extremely low Jitter of <200 fsRMS (typical),and the possibility of a triggerless acquisition.Typical application is the acquisition and analysisof very high speed optical and electrical signals in high-speed communication devices and systemsand similar areas.

The 82A04 together with the CSA/TDS8200implements the phase reference timebase functionality in a novel way, giving the user thefreedom to select from timebase and acquisitionmodes without compromises; any phase-referencefrequency within the operating range is accom-modated, and even the advanced features, suchas FrameScan®, remain available. The separateDSP per acquisition slot architecture of theCSA/TDS8200 enables the acquisition rate in thephase reference mode to reach over 40 kS/s.*1

Product(s) complies with IEEE Standard 488.2-1987,RS-232-C, and with Tektronix Standard Codes and Formats.

Modes of Operation The operation of the Phase Reference is based onacquisition of a clock synchronous to the signalunder observation. This clock can be a user-sup-plied signal (e.g., a clock from a BERT), or theClock Output of one of the CSA/TDS8200 clockrecovery or optical modules. In addition, the usercan also provide a traditional external trigger sig-nal either to the Direct Trigger input, or to theTrigger Prescaler input of the mainframe.

Phase Ref Free-Run – With no external triggerto the CSA/TDS8200 mainframe needed, the82A04 module can, together with the mainframe,create a timebase based on the phase of the ref-erence clock (effectively the timebase of theinstrument functions as a “Phase-base” instead).The signal displayed on the screen will thereforerepeat after one period of the reference clock. Alluser controls remain enabled, even while the hor-izontal position has relative meaning only. Thetiming information presented by the oscilloscopeis based solely on the phase reference clock fre-quency as entered by the user in the Input Freqfield of the Phase Reference Setup dialog.

Phase Ref Triggered – When the CSA8200mainframe is supplied both the reference clockand a traditional external trigger; the mainframetriggers on the trigger signal, and uses the phasereference information from the 82A04 to minimize the jitter. Otherwise the acquisition process doesn’tchange from traditional acquisition, the signalremains referenced to the trigger point.

Characterize – To operate properly in either thePhase Ref Triggered or the Phase Ref Free-Runmodes the Phase Reference module has to firstCharacterize the Phase Reference signal. The sig-nal needs to be stable during the characterizationand afterwards. The instrument indicates when characterization is necessary.

The TDS8200 Digital Sampling Oscilloscope is acomprehensive acquisition and measurementinstrument capable of processing very fast signals. It is the prime tool for research, designevaluation, and manufacturing test in fields ofsemiconductor test, components test, TDR, andother applications requiring bandwidths into tens of GHz.

The TDS8200 acquires data with very low jitterand at a very fast acquisition rate. It can acquirethe data in several time windows, each with itsown acquisition parameters and display window.It provides a comprehensive suite of measurementcapabilities to evaluate the data, as well as acquisition math and waveform math functionalityto process the results farther, with histograms,mask testing and statistics.

Acquired data can be stored in waveform (vector)format, traditionally used for waveforms, and in a3D database format common for eye diagramstorage. The TDS8200 provides great flexibility ofdata storage in database format with four 3Ddatabases available simultaneously; the databasesoffer an industry-first variable data persistencewith accurate data ageing. Color-grading of wave-form data adds a third dimension, sample density,

to your signal acquisitions and analyses; severalmappings of sample density-to-color are available.

Modularity and Flexibility

Building on the success of the TDS/CSA8000B,with which it is compatible, the TDS8200 supportsa large and growing family of electrical and opticalplug-in modules. This family includes the first8200 module for the 8200 series, the 82A04, aswell as the 8000 series modules, which work inboth the new TDS/CSA8200 mainframe as well asin the older TDS/CSA8000 and TDS/CSA8000Bmainframe. This modular architecture lets youconfigure the instrument with the right featuresfor a very wide range of existing standards andapplications, and with new modules for the futureneeds. With its differential clock recovery modulethe instrument can be used for acquisition of differential electrical signals even when there is no trigger available, just like a traditional Real-time Oscilloscope.

*1 Bandwidth is determined by plug-in modules and may exceed70 GHz as higher speed modules will become available in thefuture.

*2 Typical, with the new Phase Reference Module, some conditionsapply. Without the module, the jitter is <800 psRMS (typical).



State-of-the-Art Acquisition System



The available electrical modules include a varietyof modules with bandwidths up to 70 GHz andspecialized features such as Time DomainReflectometry (TDR). For the TDR probing, theP8018 probe supports full TDR bandwidth, whilethe 80A02 module provides protection from thedamage by electrostatic discharge. These features enable even measurements performed in manufacturing environment to achieve highly precise results, while protecting the TDR module itself.

The probing solutions for the electrical signalsinclude adapter for the popular TekConnect®

probing system, bringing the performance ofTektronix’ state-of-the-art probes (high impedance,differential, etc.) to the TDS8200 family. An elec-trical clock recovery module covering most popular rates between 50 Mb/s and 12.6 Gb/s is available; the ranges are broad enough to cover even future needs.

Optical modules provide complete optical testsolutions for both telecom (155 Mb/s to 43 Gb/s)and Datacom (Fibre Channel, InfiniBand andGigabit Ethernet) applications, with clock recoveryavailable as an option for most optical modules; a variable clock recovery is available for mostpopular ranges.

Signal acquisition at high frequency ranges above2.0 Gb/s will benefit from the ultra-low jitterbrought to the TDS8200 by the 80A04 PhaseReference module. Using a customer suppliedclock synchronous to the signal under the test,this module can either de-jitter traditionallyacquired samples, or dispense with the traditionaltrigger + timebase sample placing altogether andacquire in a free-run (random) mode. Uniquely,the instrument can accept signal modules, clockrecovery module, and a Phase Reference module

all at the same time, so the clock recovery ClockOut signal can be used by the Phase Referencemodule to decrease the jitter of the acquired signal.

Superior Performance

With its industry-best horizontal timebase stability,signal sensitivity and noise performance, theinstrument ensures the most accurately acquiredsignal. The newest Phase Reference module forthe TDS8200 rounds up instrument’s timebasemodes for the state-of-the art with jitter perform-ance, available with windowed acquisition and all in all other modes of operation, and for virtuallyunlimited timebase depth.

In every mode the TDS8200’s multi-processorarchitecture, with dedicated per channel digitalsignal processors (DSP), guarantees a very highacquisition rate.

The TDS8200 True differential TDR capability onas many as four differential pairs of signal, eachwith rise time well below 35 ps (reflected) enablecomplete TDR/TDT/Crosstalk measurements ofcomplex assemblies. TDR Autoset simplifies thetest setup.

The TDS8200 implements the popular FrameScan®

acquisition mode, which can be used for scanningof the data bits to isolate pattern-dependenteffects, viewing sub-harmonic interference orcapture the sequence leading to a mask violation.Unexpected features such as averaging of eyediagrams, etc. FrameScan also allows the user to view an averaged eye diagram for applicationssuch as evaluating Inter-Symbol-Interferences or separating pattern related Deterministic jitterfrom Random Jitter.

8200 Series SamplingOscilloscope Platform

The TDS8200 is built on Tektronix’ samplingoscilloscope platform that combines familiar MSWindows® 2000-based PC technologies withworld-class waveform acquisition technology. Thisplatform provides a wide array of standard instru-mentation and communications interfaces (suchas GPIB, Parallel Printer Port, RS-232-C and USBSerial Ports and an Ethernet LAN connection).In addition, the platform includes several massstorage devices (floppy disk, removable hard driveand CD-ROM). Gated triggering, a feature thatallows the exclusion of selected time periods frombeing measured, is offered as an option. Finally,because the system supports an Open Windowsenvironment, new levels of data analysis can bedone directly on the instrument using commerciallyavailable software packages. Additionally,TekVISA™, a standard software accessory, allowsthe instrument to be placed under the control ofsoftware applications (e.g., LabVIEW, LabWindows,Visual Basic, Microsoft Excel, C, etc.) running onthe instrument, or on external PC work-stationsnetwork connected to the instrument, without the need for a GPIB hardware interface. Plug-and-Play drivers for LabVIEW and other programs arealso supplied.

80E01 Sampling Module

The 80E01 is a single-channel, 50 GHz bandwidth sampling module. The 80E01 has ameasured bandwidth ≥50 GHz and a calculatedrise time ≤7.0 ps. Displayed noise is typically1.8 mVRMS. The front-panel connector is female2.4 mm and an SMA adapter is provided (2.4 mmmale to 2.92 mm female) to maintain compatibil-ity with SMA connector systems.

80E02 Low-noise Sampling Module

The 80E02 is a dual-channel, 12.5 GHz samplingmodule specifically designed for low-noise meas-urements in digital communications and devicecharacterization applications. It provides an acqui-sition rise time of 28 ps and typically 400 µVRMS

of displayed noise.

The 80E02 is the ideal instrument for low-noiseapplications. Common applications for the 80E02are capturing and displaying switching character-istics of high-speed communications circuits,making accurate statistical measurements of signal noise and signal timing jitter, or obtainingstable timing measurements of fast digital ICs.

80E03 Sampling Module

The 80E03 is a dual-channel, 20 GHz sampling module. This sampling module providesan acquisition rise time of 17.5 ps or less.

80E04 TDR Sampling Module

The 80E04 is a dual-channel Time DomainReflectometry (TDR) sampling module. This sam-pling module provides an acquisition rise time of17.5 ps or less, with a typical 20 GHz equivalentbandwidth.

Each channel of the 80E04 is capable of generating a fast step for use in TDR mode andthe acquisition portion of the sampling modulemonitors the incident step and any reflected energy. The reflected rise time of the TDR step is35 ps or less and the polarity of each channel’sstep can be selected independently. This allowsfor differential or common-mode testing of twocoupled lines, in addition to the independent test-ing of isolated lines.

The 80E04 characterizes crosstalk by using theTDR step to drive one line while monitoring a second line with the other channel.

The “filter” function on the CSA8200/TDS8200can be used with TDR or crosstalk measurementsto characterize expected system performancewith slower edge rates.

80A01 – Pre-scaled Trigger Amplifier

The 80A01 Pre-scaled Trigger Amplifier providesenhanced triggering capability on low-level signalsup to 12.5 GHz. This module plugs into any of thefour available small sampling module slots on theTDS8200 and the CSA8200 mainframes. It is ide-ally suited for component designers and manufac-turers who are verifying the performance of opti-cal and electrical components that run at non-standard clock rates up to 12.5 GHz.

80A02 EOS/ESD Protection Module

The 80A02 EOS/ESD Protection Module protectsthe sampling bridge of Tektronix electrical samplingmodule inputs from damage due to electro-overstress (EOS) and electro static discharge (ESD)from circuit boards and cables. The 80A02 isintended for use in applications such as electricalTDR circuit board testing and cable testing wherelarge static charges can be stored in the DUT.

The 80A02 plugs into any available small sam-pling module slot of the TDS/CSA8200 Series,legacy CSA11K Series, or legacy CSA803 Seriessampling oscilloscopes.

The 80A02 provides a front panel SMA connectorfor connecting the SMA test cable or probe signalfrom the DUT. The 80A02 passes the acquired DUTsignal to a connected electrical sampling moduleinput for measurement after an actuating control(from the matching P8018 high-performance probe,or customer provided external switch, TTL, or CMOS control logic input) which signals the 80A02that the DUT has been grounded to discharge any electro-static charge remaining in the DUT.

When used with the matching P8018 20 GHz single-ended handheld probe (with probe tip pressureactuating feature) the 80A02 provides a superiortechnique and performance capability for single-channel electrical sampling module EOS/ESD protection of acquired electrical signal and TDRmeasurement.

As an industrial power designer or technician,you must perform a range of power-specificmeasurements to develop, test and race productsto market. The TPS2000 Series oscilloscopes, whenequipped with TDS2PWR1 power measurementand analysis software, allows you to optimize yourproductivity by reducing your development andtest time with a broad range of power-specificmeasurements, such as switching loss (includingturn-on, turn-off and conduction losses), harmonicdistortion measurements to the 50th harmonic,and dv/dt and di/dt cursor measurements. Use a single instrument to make an array of measure-ments – from measuring high voltages*1 and highcurrents to debugging control circuits.

To improve the efficiency of industrial power designs,you must analyze power dissipation and charac-terize transitions at higher switching frequencies.

Using TDS2PWR1’s unique switching loss feature,you can measure switching device power dissipa-tion with the touch of a button. Coupled with theTPS2000 Series oscilloscopes’ unique digital real-time (DRT) sampling technology, the TDS2PWR1software package enables you to efficiently andaccurately characterize industrial power systemsby measuring power loss at the switching device.

Reduce your development and testing time byusing TDS2PWR1’s harmonic testing capability to the 50th harmonic to test power supplydesigns to these standards from your bench,the power lab, or on-site.

In addition, TDS2PWR1 software enables you toset units and scale factor for Tektronix current andvoltage probes to read the result in the right unit.

Accurate, Simple andCustomizable Physical LayerTesting on Emerging SerialData Standards up to 3.2Gb/s

When designing to industry standards, analog validation and compliance testing is critical toensure device interoperability. RT-Eye Serial DataCompliance and Analysis software (Opt RTE) usedwith the TDS/CSA7000B and TDS6000B series of high performance oscilloscopes, and properprobing solutions, provides the complete solutionfor analog validation and compliance testing ofserial data buses.

RT-Eye Clock Recovery and Eye Rendering

The first step in creating an eye diagram and performing accurate jitter measurements on datais recovering the clock from the serial bit stream.The RT-Eye eye rendering technique provides userselectable algorithms (PLL or Constant Clock) torecover the clock. This technique provides the following benefits:

High Precision Eye Diagrams – Since thewaveform is captured from a single trigger event,and the clock is recovered through software, thismethod provides a much lower JNF than mostequivalent time (ET) hardware based clock recov-ery techniques.

Standard Specific Clock Recovery – PLL-based clock recovery is most common in manydata communications standards. However, somestandards such as PCI Express require supportingmany receiver clock recovery topologies such asphase interpolation and oversampling. Softwarebased clock recovery allows you to select theclock recovery method that best suits your device.Further, use of the new SmartGating featureallows the user to define a “clock recovery window” within the acquisition as well as an additional “analysis window” that defines where

in the recovery window the measurements will be made.

Pattern Length Verification – To perform realtime jitter measurements such as random jitter(RJ), deterministic jitter (DJ), and total jitter (TJ) at10-12 BER, a jitter test pattern length must bespecified. The RT-Eye software lets you enter apattern length or select from a number of popularjitter test patterns such as TS1, CJTPAT, CSPAT,CRPAT, etc. The software then verifies your deviceis transmitting a valid pattern length for themeasurement.

De-emphasis Measurements – The real-timecapture provides the ability to differentiatebetween transition bits and trailing bits for masktesting and measurements useful in systemsemploying de-emphasis (form of active equaliza-tion also known as pre-emphasis or equalization).Amplitude measurements can be made separatelyon the emphasized bits and the non-emphasizedbits, allowing a de-emphasis measurement ratioto be displayed.

Waveform Eye Diagrams andJitter Measurements areInseparable

In the past, waveform mask testing and jittermeasurements have been performed with at leasttwo, and sometimes three pieces of instrumenta-tion. Waveform eye diagrams were viewed withsequential equivalent time (ET) sampling oscillo-scopes or real time oscilloscopes operating in arandom ET mode. Until the recent advent of realtime jitter (RJ, DJ, and TJ @ BER) methodology in TDS oscilloscopes, BERT and/or time intervalanalyzers were required to make total jitter meas-urements, using methods developed by data com-munications industry groups. More recently, somestandards in the computer industry, such as PCIExpress and Serial ATA, require that jitter meas-urements be performed on a specified number ofconsecutive (contiguous) bits, a requirement onlysatisfied by real-time oscilloscope technology.Whichever jitter measurement method is required,TDS RT-Eye software performs eye diagrams andvarious industry-specified jitter measurementsfrom a single real-time waveform acquisition.Additional confidence can be gained by accumu-lating statistics over multiple acquisitions. Thisallows you to use a single high-performance real-time oscilloscope for design, debug, validationand compliance of your serial data components.

Tektronix measurement products are manufactured in ISO registered facilities.Product(s) complies with IEEE Standard 488.2-1987,RS-232-C, and with Tektronix Standard Codes and Formats.



Compliance to industry standards is key to thesuccess of telecommunications manufacturers.Telecommunications pulse mask testing of electri-cal signals has been done with oscilloscopes foryears because of features such as variable timedelay, voltage scales and communications trig-gers. TDSCPM2 software on a TDS7000B orCSA7000B DPO Series oscilloscope, with AMT75or AFTDS electrical interface adapters, provide thethird-generation Digital Interface Test System(DITS) needed for full electrical compliance testing.

Mask testing (standard on CSA7000B Series andoptional on TDS7000B Series instruments) pro-vides waveform masks, autoset and auto-fit tomask, as well as built-in mask margin and editingcapability. The AFTDS electrical adapter providesthe bantam adapter input for signals less than 8 Mb/sec, and the AMT75 provides a precision75 Ω termination for electrical signals greaterthan 8 Mb/sec up to 1 GHz. TDSCPM2 software

completes the solution with compliance measure-ments and Pass/Fail Indication on PulseAmplitude, Spectral Power, Pulse Imbalance,Pulse Symmetry and Zero Level. This combinationof mask and compliance measurement testingensures compliance with ANSI T1.102 and ITU-TG.703 industry standards.

TDSCPM2 software is easily installed from a CD.After installation, the application is accessible fromthe oscilloscope’s touch screen or by using a mouse.

Precision Measurements start right at the probe tip. The right probes matched to the oscilloscopeand the device-under-test (DUT) allow the signal to be brought to the oscilloscope cleanly for the greatest signal fidelity and measurement accuracy.

To measure typical signal and voltage levels, passive probes provide ease-of-use and a widerange of measurement capabilities at an affordable price. The pairing of a passive voltage probewith a current probe will provide you with an ideal solution to measure power.

However, general-purpose passive probes cannot accurately measure signals with the fastestrise times, and may excessively load sensitive circuits. To measure signals with fast rise times,a high-speed active or differential probe will provide more accurate results.

Tektronix is the leader in probing technologies. We offer the world's most advanced high-bandwidth differential and active probes — up to 8 GHz differential and 6 GHz active — toaccess dense, high-speed circuitry with the highest signal fidelity currently achievable, allmatched perfectly to Tektronix oscilloscopes.

In addition to its industry-leading probes, Tektronix offers carts and workstations to free upbench space and make equipment easy to share and move around. Our rugged transit casesand travel accessories can be used to ship or transport your instrument.

Leveraging Tektronix expertise and innovation, wecreated a revolutionary Z-Active probe architecturethat sets the industry benchmark for signal fidelity.Tektronix’ new active probe architecture preserveshigh bandwidth while providing improved connectivitywith low loading. The Z-Active architecture is a newhybrid approach composed of a distributed atten-uator topology feeding an active probe amplifier.

With Z-Active architecture, the P7380 uses a tinypassive probe tip element that is separate fromthe amplifier, extending the usable reach of theprobe. In traditional active probes, adding thismuch length can introduce signal fidelity problems.However the new P7380 architecture maintainshigh DC input resistance and presents a higherAC impedance than previous probe architectures.It accomplishes this while providing significantlength between the probe body and the probeattachment point to the DUT. This architectureprovides the best of both worlds, high DC imped-ance like existing active probes, along with thestable high frequency loading of Z0 probes.

Tektronix brings you the first-available high-speeddifferential SMA input probe. The P7350SMA provides a tool for measuring differential signalsin a 50 Ω signaling environment. By integrating a dual 50 Ω termination network and a differen-tial amplifier in the probe head, the P7350SMAmeasures a differential signal pair on eachchannel of a multiple channel oscilloscope. Sincemany of the new high-speed serial data standardsdefine differential signaling on multiple channels,the P7350SMA provides a more efficient meas-urement solution.

An active differential buffer amplifier in the probehead enables the P7350SMA probe to move themeasurement interface from the oscilloscope frontpanel to the circuit-under-test. This can reduce thelength of electrical interconnect cabling, which formulti-gigabit data signals also reduces frequencydependent loss distortion in signal measurements.

The P7350SMA is connected to an oscilloscopewith the patented TekConnect® interface which preserves signal integrity to 10 GHz and beyond to meet present and future bandwidth needs.

Passive voltage probes are the most commonlyused oscilloscope probe. Other specialty probesexpand the range and functionality of an oscillo-scope as a measurement system, but a generalpurpose, passive voltage probe is the working end of the oscilloscope, a tool used every day by engineers and technicians.

Two years of customer research, design innova-tion and an exhaustive test program resulted in a most remarkable family of oscilloscope probes.This family of passive voltage probes is specificallydesigned for Tektronix’ analog and digital portableoscilloscopes. The 1X and 10X switchable P2220probe combine the same high quality electricalperformance that customers expect from Tektronixwith a new rugged mechanical design.

These probes are encased in a resilient, moldedrubber body that is virtually indestructible. Theyare lighter in weight, more comfortable to hold and more reliable than modular probe styles. Theprobes’ replaceable tips are designed to withstandup to 20 pounds of force. Patented integral strainrelief allows complete freedom of movement whileproviding superior cable flex. Each probe hasreceived UL safety certification and meets MIL-T-28800, Class 3, environment specifications –something portable scope users will appreciate.

The P3010, P6101B, P6109B, P6111B, P6112,P6114B and P6117 probes are designed to com-plement Tektronix’ family of portable DSO and ARTinstruments. The core of each probe’s performanceis supplied by a Tektronix HYBRID/SMT device.

Tektronix’ instrumentation experience provides anextra margin of quality and reliability to the moldedprobes that is not commonly available to probemanufacturers. These molded probes have beendesigned and tested to support the overall systemperformance and measurement quality thatTektronix oscilloscopes guarantee.

Through the introduction of the molded probes,Tektronix has set a new standard for passive volt-age probe styling, performance and durability.

The TCA-1MEG high-impedance buffer amplifiersystem extends the capabilities of Tektronix high-performance oscilloscopes, making them ideal for a variety of general-purpose measurements.The TCA-1MEG amplifier system provides a1 MΩ path that is easily removed and replacedwith a wide array of TekConnect probes, amplifiersand adapters.

This amplifier system delivers versatility toTektronix high-performance oscilloscopes throughthe addition of input coupling (selectable), band-width limit (selectable), and a 1 MΩ input thatprovides access to a wide array of measurementsolutions. These solutions include general-purposepassive probes, high voltage probes (passive single-ended and active differential), micro-voltdifferential probes and current probes.

With this tool, Tektronix high-performance oscillo-scopes may now perform measurements such asprimary and secondary power supply voltage levels,currents and elevated voltages, and assess thepower requirements of the device-under-test.

For today’s high-speed measurement solutions,having the 50 Ω and 1 MΩ terminations on the same input path compromises signal fidelity.By making the 1 MΩ path replaceable, the TCA-1MEG high impedance buffer amplifier systemeliminates a permanent degradation of the high-speed signal path. This also allows users to easilyand quickly configure each channel for the inputcharacteristics required for their measurements.By exchanging the TCA-1MEG for a high-performance50 Ω path or other high-speed probing solution,maximum signal fidelity is maintained at the oscilloscope’s input.

The TCP300 and TCP400 series AC/DC CurrentMeasurement family is a highly advanced currentmeasurement system for today’s current measure-ment needs. The split-core probes incorporate bothtransformer and Hall effect technology to providebroad bandwidth measurement capabilities fromDC up to 100 MHz at current levels as low as1 milliamp to thousands of amps (when used withCT4 current transformer). When connected toTektronix TDS Oscilloscopes with TEKPROBE™ Level IIor TekConnect® (w/TCA-BNC) interfaces, currentmeasurements and calculations are simple and easy.

Additional measurement power is available withadd on software such as the TDSPWR2 powermeasurements package. With all this measure-ment power, current measurements have neverbeen easier.

Meets Today’s AC/DC CurrentMeasurement Applications

The TCPA300 amplifier, when used with TCP312,TCP305, or TCP303 probes, provide a wide rangeof current measurement capability and spans thegap between low level milliamp measurements tovery high current levels. These three probes providecurrent measurement capabilities of 30A, 50A,and 150A DC continuous. For even higher currentlevels, the TCPA400 amplifier with the TCP404XLcurrent probe measures 500A DC continuous and750A DC continuous, derated with duty cycle.

Higher frequency performance is available withthe TCP312 w/TCPA300 providing ≥100 MHzbandwidth and a maximum current of 30A DC.

Measurement Errors andManual Calculations are Now a Thing of the Past

With this new series of current measurementtools, automatic control and on-screen scalingand units is provided for users of TektronixTDS3000, TDS400A, TDS500, TDS600, TDS700,TDS5000, TDS6000, and TDS7000 series oscillo-scope systems. Status LEDs quickly show youTCP300/400 series operating status or potentialerror conditions that may have caused measure-ment errors in the past.

The TCP300/TCP400 Current MeasurementSystems seamlessly integrate with your TDSseries oscilloscope and the TDSPWR2 softwarepackage to easily make those time consumingpower measurements and calculations for you.

Even non-TEKPROBE systems can use theTCPA 300/400 series to make proper currentmeasurements by simply multiplying the meas-ured output voltage on the oscilloscope by theTCPA 300/400 series range setting.

PPM203B

The PPM203B has a three-axis arm system.It is a general-purpose benchtop probing aiddesigned to be used when probing PC boards,hybrids and MCMs that employ fine-pitch devicesand interconnects.

The PPM203B incorporates a weighted base thatmakes it well-suited to probing fine pitches inbenchtop applications.

PPM100

The PPM100 is a low-cost probing aid designedto provide quick and easy access to PC boards,hybrid circuitry and many other devices thatrequire hands-free probing. The PPM100 has aflexible “gooseneck” arm allowing multiple adjust-ment positions. Once positioned the course adjustknobs lock the probe holder into position. A fineadjustment control at the arm head allows furtherpressure adjustment after the probe is initiallypositioned. The spring compliance incorporatedinto the probe head holder keeps pressure on theprobe to circuit, maintaining a superior connectionto the device under test.

The PPM100 includes both a weighted base fordesktop applications and a C-clamp base forattaching to chassis or rack applications.

Tektronix logic analyzers provide a wide range of solutions for real-time digital systems analysis,so you can deal with the faster edge speeds and tighter timing margins of next-generationdesigns with confidence. From single synchronous-bus state and timing analysis to debug and verification of multiple-bus digital systems, there is a Tektronix logic analyzer to meet your needs.

Tektronix’ patented MagniVu™ acquisition technology provides up to 125 ps timing resolution onall channels simultaneous with state or timing acquisition, through a single logic analyzer probe.For advanced processors and buses, the TLA700 Series provides 800 MHz state acquisition or1.25 Gb/s data rate. Connect a Tektronix oscilloscope to your logic analyzer for unprecedenteddigital-analog system visibility and even faster debugging. The TLA700-exclusive iLink™ Tool Setallows you to use an oscilloscope and a single logic analyzer probe to capture, display and analyze time-correlated analog and digital measurements.

High-density connectorless probes using new D-Max™ probing technology provides leadingchannel density and signal integrity for applications where circuit board space is at a premium.The P6900 Series of probes provide a footprint 61% smaller than the previous P6800 generation,and the lowest capacitance rating available in the industry, typically 0.5 pF, to maintain theintegrity of the signals being observed.

Tektronix logic analyzers are “open” to support how you want to analyze and document yourwork. OpenChoice® provides a high degree of flexibility to network and adapt the logic analyzerinto new or existing systems and to automate data acquisition, measurement, analysis and documentation.

Hardware and software engineers need the abilityto generate digital stimuli to simulate infrequentlyencountered test conditions in hardware designand software program testing. A pattern generatorenables you to perform functional verification,debugging and stress testing for system hardwaredesign. This multi-channel, programmable patterngenerator module with sequential control stimu-lates a prototype with data from a simulator forextended analysis. The pattern generator is idealfor designing systems where surrounding boards,ICs or buses that normally provide digital signalsto the device under test are missing. With thepattern generator, you can place a circuit in adesired state, operate it at full speed, or single-step it through a series of states.

The TLA7PG2 features 64 channels and supportsup to a 268 MHz clock rate for data output. TheTLA7PG2 is made compatible with numerous voltage levels and technologies through the use of external pattern generator probes.

The TLA700 Series logic analyzers capture waveform data in a form that can be read bySynaptiCAD™ WaveFormer Pro, VeriLogger Pro,and TestBencher Pro software tools. SynaptiCAD’stools can convert the logic analyzer waveformdata into stimulus vectors for VHDL, Verilog,SPICE, ABEL and pattern generators, including the TLA7PG2.

Characteristics

GeneralData Width – 64 Channel full channel mode.32 Channel half channel mode.Module “Merging” – Five modules can be “merged” to make up to a 320 channel module.Merged modules exhibit the same depth as the lesser of the five individual modules.Number of Mainframe Slots Required – 2.Data Rate – Internal Clock:

0.5 Hz to 134 MHz full channel mode.1.0 Hz to 268 MHz half channel mode.

External Clock:DC to 134 MHz full channel mode.DC to 268 MHz half channel mode.

External Clock Input – Polarity: positive or negative.Threshold: –2.56 V to +2.54 V, nominal; programmable in 20 mV increments.Sensitivity: <500 mVp-p.Impedance: 1 kΩ terminated to ground.Data Depth – 256 k full channel/512 k half channel.1 M full channel/2 M half channel (optional).

Pattern SequencingCharacteristicsBlocks – Separate sections of pattern program that areoutput in a user definable order by the Sequencer. Blockpattern depth can be from 40 sequences (full channelmode) or 80 sequences (half channel mode) up to theentire depth of the TLA7PG2. A maximum of 4,000Blocks may be defined.Sequencer – A 4,000 line memory that allows theuser to pick the output order of individual Blocks. Eachline in the sequencer allows the definition of a Block tobe output, a Repeat Count for that Block, A Wait Forevent condition for the Block, the Signal state for thatBlock (asserted or unasserted), and a Jump If eventcondition, with a sequence line to jump to if the condition is satisfied.Sub-sequences – Up to 256 contiguous lines of the Sequencer memory may be defined as a Sub-sequence. A Sub-sequence can then be treated like ablock. (Example: 15 Sequences of Blocks are definedas Sub-sequence A1. Now any line in the Sequencercan output A1. Five calls to Sub-sequence A1 will beflattened out to 75 sequences at run time.)Jump If – Jumps to the specified sequence if a userdefined event is true. The user-defined event is aboolean combination of the eight external event input.Wait For – Pattern output is paused until the user-defined event is true. One Wait For may be defined for every Block.Assert Signal – One of the four inter-module signals is selected to be controlled from the patterngenerator program. Signals may be asserted andunasserted allowing true interaction with the logic analyzer modules and with other pattern generatormodules. Signal action (assert or unassert) may bedefined for every Block.

Repeat Count – The sequence is repeated from 1 to 65,536 times. Infinite may also be selected. OneRepeat Count may be defined for every block. Notethat a repeat value of 10,000 takes one sequence line in memory, not 10,000.Step – While in Step mode, the TLA7PG2, the usercan manually satisfy (i.e., click an icon) Wait For andJump conditional events. This allows the user to debug the logic flow of the program’s sequencing.Initialization Block – The unconditional Jump command allows the user to implement an equivalent function.

Logic Analyzer/PatternGenerator Connectivity toSimulation EnvironmentsThe TLA520X and TLA700 Series logic analyzers capturewaveform data in a form that can be read bySynaptiCAD WaveFormer Pro,VeriLogger Pro, andTestBencher Pro software tools. SynaptiCAD’s tools canconvert the logic analyzer waveform data into stimulusvectors for VHDL, Verilog, SPICE, ABEL, and pattern generators including the TLA7PG2.SynaptiCAD’s WaveFormer Pro product offers a timingdiagram editing environment that enables stimulus to becreated using a combination of graphically drawn signals,timing parameters that constrain edges, clock signals,and temporal and Boolean equations for describingcomplex, quasi-repetitive signal behavior. Advancedoperations on signals such as time scaling and shifting,and block copy and pasting of signal behavior over aninterval of time are also supported.

Engineers involved with system or componentstart-up or debug face a myriad of challenges,including: CPU, chipset, board and system validation,verification or optimization; validation of hardwareand software compatibility; and capturing elusivesystems and software problems including:

System initialization failure

System timing violations

Unexpected and slow software execution

Memory variable corruption

Memory leaks

Stack overruns

Incorrect interrupt levels masking and tasking switching

Inefficient coding

The complexity introduced by these challengescan lead to uncertainty and error. Tektronix logicanalyzers help resolve many of these challenges,simplifying debug and validation tasks and speedingyour design to market.

Tektronix logic analyzers – with high synchronousacquisition speed across many channels, deep tracecaptures, very fine timing resolution and powerfultriggering – provide a base level of capability.Some technologies require specialized hardwareto access the bus and software to acquire anddisassemble the data. For system-level debug, itrequires monitoring many basis, viewed simulta-neously and time-correlated to understand howthe various sub-assemblies function as a unit andas a system.

Tektronix, along with selected third-party vendors,offers a wide range of hardware and softwareproducts that are used in conjunction with logicanalyzers to gain visibility into today’s highestbandwidth, most complicated microprocessorsand buses.

Established in 1991, Nexus Technology Inc. is thepremiere bus support and accessories supplier for Tektronix TLA Logic Analyzers. With a widerange of products, from small probe adapters and converters to high-speed PCI-X and DDRIIinterposers, Nexus and Tektronix can help anengineering team bring a product to market more quickly and with a higher level of confi-dence in their design.

In many cases a target may have connections on it that are not easily probed using the LogicAnalyzer probes that are available. Nexus offersmany different adapters, supporting various com-pression, Mictor and flying leadset configurations,to try to solve this problem. Many of theseadapters also make it more convenient to connectan oscilloscope to the available connections foranalyzing the signal integrity of the design.

In other instances a designer is looking for aneasy way to connect a TLA to a complex bus suchas PCI, PCI-X or DDR. Nexus offers many differenttypes and styles of probes to make this task easy,with designs that are simple yet created with sig-nal integrity uppermost in mind. This results inadapters that use rigid-flex-rigid manufacturingtechniques offering matched impedances, lowcapacitive loading and matched trace lengths toensure minimal intrusion upon the target design.Most of the bus supports also include softwaresupport packages that integrate with the TLA toprovide unsurpassed data acquisition and datadisplay capability of the bus in question. Nexushas also pioneered the NEXVu-style of DDRIImemory adapter to support debug of the highestmemory data rates presently in the industry.

Nexus will also work with designers to create cus-tomized solutions for their debug problems.

Signal Sources

Today’s demanding test and measurement environments call for best-in-class performance andseamless integration. Best-in-class solutions start with precise, reliable, absolutely replicablesignal generation, whether analog waveform, digital pattern or both. Fast and effective validationand characterization require both precise reference signals and true-to-life distorted signals –allowing you to quickly test your design under the widest variety of critical real-world conditions.

Tektronix’ signal sources – analog, digital and mixed – allow you to quickly isolate, reproduceand solve problems, validate designs and characterize performance to speed new products to market.

Signal Sources

Analog/Mixed Signal Sources

Analog/mixed signal sources – also known asarbitrary waveforms generators and arbitraryfunction generators – offer a degree of versatilitythat few other instruments can match. In additionto creating standard waveforms, they can generate“real world” signals with all the glitches, drift, noiseand other anomalies that a device-under-test willencounter when it leaves the lab or manufacturingfloor. With their ability to produce any waveformyou can imagine, mixed signal sources embraceapplications that include automotive ABS simula-tion and engine control, wireless network stresstesting, serial data communication simulation,disk drive testing, transducer and biomedical simulations, and much more.

Tektronix offers a wide variety of arbitrary wave-form generators (AWG) that have the capabilitiesto earn the title of “Mixed Signal Source.” Fromthe high performance AWG710B that combines

world class signal fidelity with ultra high-speedmixed-signal simulation, to the affordable 16 MS/sbench AFG300 Series, Tektronix has an arbitrarysignal source to meet your application needs.

Arbitrary waveform generators have evolved fromsimple digital-to-analog (D/A) converters tosophisticated signal sources with powerful creation,editing, triggering and real-time sequencing capa-bilities. Designers use these instruments to testtheir products to ensure that they operate underthe actual conditions that their designs willencounter in the “real world.”

Tektronix’ AWGs combine world-class signal fidelitywith ultra high-speed mixed signal simulation, apowerful sequencing capability and graphical userinterface with flexible waveform editor to solve the toughest measurement challenges in the diskdrive, communications and semiconductordesign/test industries.

New serial data standards, expanding networks,and ubiquitous computing continually redefine the cutting-edge of technology. The design engineer is challenged to economize without sacrificing performance.

The DTG5000 Series combines the power of adata generator with the capabilities of a pulse generator in a versatile, bench-top form factor,simplifying the generation of low-jitter, high-accuracy clock signals and serial data across multiple channels. Its modular platform allowsyou to easily configure the performance of the instrument to your existing and emerging needs to minimize equipment costs. Two mainframes and three plug-in output modules combine to cover a range of applications from legacy devicesto the latest technologies. In addition, eight low-current, independently-controlled DC outputscan substitute for external power supplies. Eachmainframe incorporates a full complement of auxiliary input and output channels to easily integrate with other instruments, such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, to create a flexible and powerful lab.

The mainframe’s high-performance internal clock determines maximum data rate, and theinternal architecture determines maximum channel count and pattern memory per channel.

The plug-in module’s output drivers determinevoltages as well as transition times as indicated in the table that follows.

Both mainframes support two operating modes.The pulse generator mode easily creates pulsepatterns on channels along with delays asrequired. The DG mode supports more complextest setups and data patterns. In addition, eightadjustable DC Outputs are built right into theinstrument – an industry first.

Robust Pattern Tools

Long Pattern Memory andPowerful Sequencer EqualUnrivaled Flexibility

Long pattern memory is important not only tosupport long individual data patterns, but also tosupport multiple vectors called up in sequencing.Both DTG mainframes come with more memoryper channel than any other comparable instru-ment. The DTG5078 offers 8 Mbits of patternmemory and the DTG5274 comes with 32 Mbitsper channel. When combined with the powerfulsequencer, you have unprecedented ability tocontrol waveform data for the most demandingtesting regimens. This amount of memory, and thepowerful sequencer, allows you to conduct moretests without the need to transfer data to the DTG.

The DG2020A is designed for serious digitaldesigners who create their own digital patterns orrely on a logic simulator to supply digital vectors.A large graphical display simplifies data entry andediting functions, allowing the user to easily viewand shape large segments of the data pattern(Figure 1). A wide variety of commonly used datapatterns are built into the data editor to furthersimplify data creation. Built-in data functionsinclude counters, shift registers, serial data converters and clocks.

Easy to use menu driven editing functions areprovided to define data bit, cursor location anddata width. Data can be manipulated at the bit,byte or word level. Various functions such as datacut/copy/paste, invert, magnify, insert and deleteare supported, as are data shift, add and rotate.Advanced functions are used to create clock patterns and PRBS data. A variety of data presen-tations are available to clearly illustrate the datapattern including table, timing, binary and numeric.

Pattern Sequencing

The DG2020A combines deep memory withadvanced data flow sequencing to provide thedesigner with a flexible digital stimulus source.

Pattern sequencing is a capability that can extendthe DG2020A pattern memory almost to infinity.Sequencing allows segments of pattern memoryto be looped or repeated until some internal orexternal event occurs when pattern execution thencontinues. Each line in the sequence list can becontrolled by an external event that can cause ajump to a different block of data. External eventand inhibit Input signals are also used to controlthe flow and impedance of the DG2020A output.Three types of sequences are offered:

Simple Sequence – For repeat, single or stepoperation modes

Enhanced Sequence – Supports more interactiveand dedicated sequence control

Sub-Sequence – Supports defined sub-sequencesthat manage multiple blocks as a single block.Uses only one sequence entry in the sequencedefinition table

Introduction

Many of today’s RF signals change from one instant to the next. Some hop frequencies; otherstransmit briefly, then disappear; many carry complex modulation. And these activities can pro-duce their own side-effects: random transients, interference, switching anomalies, and more.Where once it was enough to understand each domain (time, frequency and modulation) ontheir own, today’s RF signals require that these domains are analyzed together in a singletime correlated view. As a result, there is a growing requirement for tools whose capabilitiesmirror the time-varying nature of today’s signals. Engineers need real-time instruments thatcan trigger the instant the signal changes, capture the signal seamlessly, and analyze theeffects of the change in all domains. Tektronix’ Real-time Spectrum Analyzers can do it all!

Trigger, Capture, Analyze Your RF Signal

RSA Series Spectrogram uniquely shows time-varying signal behavior in frequencychange/stability, spectrum occupancy, pulsedsignal timing, power change and more! Thesample above shows the frequency settlingcharacteristic of a transmitting device.

Time-correlated multi-domain view provides anew level of insight about design or operationalproblems. This example shows the time,frequency and PM analysis views of a phase-variant pulsed signal.


You Can Easily Catch an Elusive RF Signal and Analyze it at Your Convenience

Sensitive and fast, RSA Series Real-timeSpectrum Analyzer triggering easily captures unknown, periodic or intermittent sig-nals. Using the Tektronix exclusive FrequencyMask Trigger, you can configure a custom fre-quency domain mask including signal guardbands and levels then trigger on events isolatedto a specific frequency or frequency range. Assignals are captured, they are automatically savedto RSA internal memory, making it easy to per-form in-depth, time-correlated analysis across thefrequency, time and modulation domains with noexternal computer required! Quick-to-set-up IF Level and Power (Span Bandwidth) triggersprovide very convenient capture of signals inapplications such as incident carrier-and-response interaction between two devices orburst signal carrier ramp up. Continuous TriggerMode ensures a sequence of events are automat-ically captured into memory; you capture only theevents and not time in between, maximizingmemory efficiency and minimizing analysis time.

Signaling

Radio test sets, covering major national and international standards, including CDMA, GSM,GPRS, EDGE, CDMA2000, WCDMA, DCS1800, PCS1900 and AMPS are described here.

In addition to the conventional RF and AF measuring facilities, many units also include specialsignaling capabilities. Testers with signaling simulate the base station and perform all signalingmeasurements to PTT regulations, in addition to all conventional radio measurements. For largecellular-radio networks, they also provide base-station testing, including signaling.

Integration of a signaling unit into the radio tester ensures fast data exchange between the controlunits, thus creating the prerequisites for real-time measurements under practical conditions.

If in-depth spectral analysis is required, including modulation without signaling, refer to theSpectrum Analyzers section.

NetTek® AnalyzerYBT1 Backhaul T1 Tester

Affordable, Portable,Ready for the Field

T1 Circuit Tester for NetTek

BTS Field Tool

The Tektronix NetTek analyzer is a revolutionaryportable BTS field tool. The YBT1 Backhaul T1tester enables mobile operators to troubleshootthe T1 connection to the base station. The YBT1PC card offers this capability at a surprisingly lowprice, in a rugged, easy-to-use package, suitablefor all field environments.

Field Troubleshooting

The YBT1 card for the NetTek BTS Field Toolincludes the most common measurements needed to uncover T1 problems affecting a livemobile network. In monitor mode, the YBT1 canverify the presence of T1 signals. Frame format,synchronization and line coding are displayed.

The YBT1 also has the capability to display thealarm and error status of the T1 span.

The YBT1 allows users to gather detail on any ofthe alarm or error events. Simply touch any of thered events and the instrument provides detailabout the network event. This detail includes thenumber of events and the time of the event, andprovides useful information to correlate networklogs to field data.

Installation Tests

Many of the same tests available for field troubleshooting are also useful for installing the T1 span. The YBT1, however, also supports measurements that specifically aid in the acceptance of a new, or repaired, T1 circuit.

The YBT1 provides a “channel gram” feature formonitoring the status of each of the 24 DS0s thatmake up a T1. This enables quick verification ofdata content of the T1 span – this feature is particularly useful for checking the correct configuration of a multiplexed circuit.

The DSO Activity Graph arranges the DS0s intocolumns. Time is the vertical axis and differentdensities are shown with different colors. Withthis unique feature, users can quickly verify thepresence of traffic, signaling channels, etc. andhow the data is changing over time.

User-defined multiple pattern tests can be createdwith the YBT1. These are automated sequencesthat can be run for minutes, or hours, of performance testing. The sequence for the testand the length of time for each pattern can beselected. These sequences can be saved with a unique filename for future use, including e-mailing to multiple users so that all spans, eventhose in remote locations, are being tested withthe same method.

SS7/GSM/GPRS Monitoring and Analysis

236 • Network Monitoring SystemFor the most up-to-date and complete product information, visit our web site at


Monitoring sites – which can be distributed any-where in the network – contain one or more racksequipped with:

Monitoring probes having different interfaceboards to access SS7, GSM, GPRS network links

Mass storage of signaling raw data

WAN connectivity hardware (e.g., hub and routers)

GPS antenna

The monitoring probes provide the following functions:

Nonintrusive interface to the E1/T1 and10/100 Mb/s Ethernet links

Analysis of differentSS7/GSM/GPRS/IN/CDMA/TDMA signaling protocols and protocol variants

Decoding and storage of signaling data on a local hard disk

Evaluation and storage of call and transactionrelated information

Communications and synchronization with othermonitoring probes for multi-protocol distributedcall-trace

Data Collection

The monitoring probes provide simultaneous moni-toring of a number of signaling data links, collectingand decoding signaling information and alarms.

The NET-7 system can be used with differentcommon channel signaling systems, both in fixed and mobile network environments. No user intervention is required for normal operation ofthe system.

Data Analysis and Storage

Statistical measurements and counters are provided at different intervals based on specificprotocol messages to evaluate the performance of the signaling network.

Call or transaction related information is as wellprovided by the system to allow Call Detail Records(CDR) for every call or call attempt in the network.

Data storage can occur either in the central unitor in the monitoring probe hard disk for a limitedtime period, in order to buffer data locally in caseof communications problems over the WAN.

To be able to interpret and consolidate collecteddata, information about the network structure isstored in the system. This allows the NET-7 systemto determine for instance the origin and destinationof each call.

An optional feature, the raw data storage, providesa file server with a large disk array at the monitor-ing site. This allows storing every single protocolmessage unit, for many days.

Data Synchronization and Correlation

Data collected by different monitoring probesneed to be synchronized across the entire networkto ensure a correct interpretation of the information.To do so, a GPS is provided in each of the monitor-ing sites so that information gathered by the cen-tral unit can be analyzed in the correct sequence.

Graphical User Interface (GUI)

Elementary Information

By analyzing the signaling flow, the monitoringprobes generate, in real time, protocol data (dumpof MSUs), CDRs, statistic counters and alarms.MSUs feed the protocol analysis and call traceapplications; all the messages are time stampedand displayed in real time to the operator, whichcan choose the level of details with which theinformation is displayed. Besides being displayedin real time, the information can be stored forsubsequent off-line analysis.

Maps and Alarms

Hierarchical maps provide a global view of networkperformance and behavior.

By clicking on the map’s elements, you can thendisplay all the alarms associated with their status.

Reports: Tables and Graphs

Starting from elementary information (like individualCDRs or SS7 statistical counters), it is possible toevaluate complex parameters and measures fordifferent origins and destinations of signaling andtraffic along the network.

UMTS Reference Model UMTS architecture can be seen as the next stepbeyond the 2G and 2.5G technologies (GSM andGPRS). Thus, UMTS will not replace these tech-nologies and their network elements, but willextend the network architecture. UMTS R99 intro-duced new network elements, such as the RadioNetwork Controller (RNC) and Node B, as shownin Figure 1. These two new network elements willform three new UMTS specific interfaces:

The Iu interface between RNC andMSC/SGSN, with the Circuit Switched (CS)and Packet Switched (PS) part

The Iub interface between RNC and Node B

The Iur interface between RNCs

UMTS R4 introduced new network elements suchas the MSC Server and the Media Gateway (MGW),as well as new interfaces Nc, Nb, and Mc, asshown in Figure 1. In addition, new functionalitieshave been added to already existing UMTS/GPRSprotocols.

These new elements, the interfaces between them,and the great number of new protocols create ahuge demand for test applications. Examples oftest configurations that can be handled with theK1297-G20 UMTS solution are described on thenext page.

UMTS R5 introduced an All-IP architecture, end-to-end support for VoIP, the Stand-alone A-GPSSMLC (SAS) and new features (e.g., HSDPA) thatwill enable new services and reduce operatingcosts. The Iu-PC interface connects the SAS withthe RNC. Further, support of the TD-SCDMA technology has been included in UMTS R5.

UMTS Release 6 supports key features such asMultimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS),Network Sharing, Priority Service, WirelessLAN/UMTS Interworking, IMS Phase 2, PushServices and Presence.

Figure 2 shows a K1297-G20, which simulatesthe RNC network element towards the MSC andSGSN. Depending on the test purpose, the protocollayer will be simulated or emulated. The messageflow for the protocol to be simulated is usuallydefined in a simple way with the Message SequenceChart (MSC) Tool offered by the K1297-G20 BaseSoftware. Emulations, which behave according tothe standards, are used for all layers below thesimulated protocol layer.

In Figure 3, the K1297-G20 simulates a MSCtowards the SGSN and the RNC. This configurationrequires the appropriate GPRS packages for Gs

interface simulation. Applications, such as the CallGenerator, help to test the basic call handling.

As the physical layer is often opticalin nature (e.g., STM1 optical) it is not possible to hook the unit to an interface with-out disconnecting the lines between the network nodes unless there are special moni-toring points. In addition, an optical coupler (eachdirection) may be necessary to allow passivemonitoring. The K1297-G20 in Figure 4 monitorsthe complete Iu interface (Iu-CS and Iu-PS) at thesame time.

Figure 5 shows a K1297-G20 monitoring the Iuband the Iur interface.

Iu-PS Capacity Tests

The SGSN in the UMTS core network is testedfrom both the Gi and IuPS interface by the testunit. The test unit emulates many RNCs support-ing multiple UEs at IuPS. The UEs and RNCs aremodeled as performing real world mobile proce-dures, like:

Dynamic Allocation of AAL2Links with a K1297-G20/K15on a Iub Interface

The Iub interface protocol architecture consists oftwo functional layers, as shown in Figure 6:

The radio network layer defines proceduresrelated to the operation of Node B. It consists ofa radio network control plane and a radio net-work user plane

The transport layer defines procedures for estab-lishing physical connections between Node Band the RNC

In order to decode the dynamically openedSignaling Radio Bearers (Signaling RABs) from andtowards the User Equipment (UE), the signaling onIub Control Plane (NBAP) and Transport NetworkControl Plane (ALCAP) must be traced.

Each connected Node B requires configuring atleast one pair of NBAP and ALCAP links.

An appropriate application analyzes this signaling, and opens the appropriate Commonand Dedicated Control Channel.

One Node B serves a certain number of cells. Foreach cell there is a complete set of Common ControlChannels, such as PCCH, BCCH, and CCCH.These channels are called Logical Channels.See Figure 7.


Figure 6. lub interface protocol structure.

Figure 7. Set of common transport channels.


Iub Deciphering

Ciphering in UMTS is performed between UE andRNC over Air and Iub-Interface. For the structureof the Iub protocol stack refer to Figure 8.

The ciphering function is performed either in theRLC sublayer or in the MAC sublayer, according to the following rules:

If a radio bearer is using a non-transparent RLC Mode (AM, UM), ciphering is performed in the RLC sublayer

If a radio bearer is using the transparent RLC Mode (TM), ciphering is performed in the MAC sublayer (MAC-d entity)

In effect, if a protocol tester without Decipheringapplication is used on Iub-Interface and Cipheringis activated, all RRC messages and above plus allUser Data cannot be decoded anymore.

Ciphering will be activated after exchange ofsecurityModeCommand and securityModeComplete(see Figure 9). The deciphering application of the K1297-G20 works in automatic and manualmode. In order to capture the ciphering key CK in automatic mode, access to the Iu Interface isrequired. The manual mode is designed for testlabs that are able to manipulate the ciphering keyCK. For this use case no access to the Iu-Interfaceis necessary. The Iub Deciphering application willtrace up to 1000 (automatic mode) or 50 (manualmode) different connections on Iu- and Iub-Interfaces.

The recording shown in Figure 10 shows anauthentication and call setup procedure (MOC) on Iu- (blue color) and Iub-Interface (black color).All NAS-messages after the security procedureare encrypted on Iub-Interface. Therefore withoutdeciphering application, the SETUP, CPROG messages are decoded on Iu-Interface, but not on Iub-Interface anymore.

The K1297-G20 deciphering application works inonline and offline mode and also tracks complexprocedures, like Softer-Handover and ChannelType Switching.

Seamless Access to IMA

The requirements for higher bandwidth and theneed to reduce investments in mobile radio net-work infrastructure were the driving factors forthe definition of IMA. The standard was defined inthe late 1990s by the ATM Forum and describeshow to use links with lower bandwidth (such asE1 and DS1) to form a “virtual” link with higherbandwidth.

In order to save costs during the early years of 3Gnetwork deployment, operators will try and re-useas much infrastructure from existing networks aspossible by using this IMA technology. Using thistechnology successfully requires a tool for non-intrusive monitoring, which examines all lines withoututilizing additional test equipment. By combininginnate protocol monitoring for the lub interfacewith seamless access to IMA links, Tektronix’innovative new IMA monitoring software enablesusers to perform upper-layer protocol analysis inaddition to retrieving information (statistics, alarms,etc.) from the lower-layer IMA links. While mostIMA monitoring tools actually interrupt physicallines carrying active network traffic (cutting offtraffic on the link while the connection is beingmade), the new IMA solution is the only one tomonitor passively.

Connection to the E1/DS1 lines of interest (thoseusing IMA) is possible at any time without affectinglive traffic. There is no need to disconnect or re-start the links being monitored. Tektronix’ IMAsoftware automatically determines whether thelinks that make up an IMA group are correctlyconnected. Links that do not belong in the groupare revealed in real-time. This automation dra-matically simplifies the task of connecting E1/DS1cables and reduces the risk of incorrect connec-tions. See Figure 11.

As soon as all cables are correctly connected tothe PCM lines and the configuration is set up (IMAPool is operational) all the higher protocol layersare decoded “as usual.” Applications like Iub-Monitoring work as expected. In case of IMA statechanges (e.g. add/remove of an IMA link) theseevents will be displayed as layer 1 alarms in therecording file. Furthermore there are dozens of IMAspecific counters that allow a detailed analysis ofthe IMA protocol states.

Deciphering

GPRS network operators transmit ciphered databetween GPRS terminals and the network moreoften than they previously have. Whenever enciphering is switched on in GPRS networks,all signaling data and payload above the protocollayer Logical Link Control (LLC) are encrypted.The K1297-G20 Protocol Tester supplies the firstdeciphering test and observation tools, enablinganalysis and processing of all data above the protocol layer LLC.

The GPRS Deciphering application decryptsControl- and User Plane messages on the Gb-Interface not only for GPRS but also for UMTSmobiles (e.g., after an Intersystem Change for PS-Services from UTRAN to GSM BSS). It supportsthe GPRS Encryption Algorithm-1 and -2 (GEA 1and GEA-2). In automatic mode the applicationcollects ciphering keys (Kc or CK) from the Gr-Interface (see picture below). In manual modeno access to the Gr-Interface is required. This is aspecial use case for test labs, where the user canmanipulate the ciphering key.

Deciphering solution – deciphered messages.

Breakthrough Solution for Mobile Network Troubleshooting



Automatic UMTS Iub Monitoring Configuration

Just by monitoring the UMTS Iub interface livetraffic and without the need of restarting the NodeB, this application consists of an expert softwarecapable of automatically configuring all the logicallinks necessary to carry out Iub monitoring in justa few minutes.

On the Iub interfaces being monitored by theequipment, the expert software automaticallyidentifies the following parameters and configures the logical links accordingly:

AAL5 ATM VPI/VCI for NBAP and ALCAP traffic for each Node B

AAL2 ATM VPI/VCI/CID for RACH, FACH and PCHCCCH for each cell

A wizard, designed for both beginners and experts,guides the user through the configuration process.Once the configuration process is finished and allthe necessary logical links have been set up, theresults can be saved for subsequent use.

Multi Interface Call Trace

The “Multi Interface Call Trace” application is anexpert software that helps trace calls/sessions inreal-time and off-line as they evolve over multipleinterfaces.

Simple parameters like the IMSI are used to identify the subscriber identity and to trigger thesearch. The call/session can even be traced if theidentifying parameters change dynamically duringthe transactions (for example IMSI, P-TMSI), evenif it spans over multiple interfaces (such as Iub –Iu-PS – Gr) and involves different network ele-ments (like Node B, RNC, HLR).

The GUI allows drill-down troubleshooting fromthe problem symptom to the root cause with justa mouse-click.

The “Overview Window” lists detected calls/sessions and highlights their status at a glance(normal, failed) for quick identification of problems.This allows filtering out calls that are not ofinterest for the particular test being performed (normal calls).

The “Arrow Diagram” graphically shows the mes-sage flow (arrows) of the call/session and theinvolved network elements (vertical lines) in a veryintuitive way. A deep protocol knowledge is notrequired.

For in-depth troubleshooting of the problem’s rootcause, all details about the protocol messagesand their parameters are shown in the “DetailedMonitor Window.”

Supported interfaces are:

SS7/GSM (ISUP, INAP)

GPRS/EDGE (Abis, A, Gb, Gr, Gn/Gp)

Distributed MonitoringApplications

The K15 embeds all the fundamental buildingblocks for a distributed monitoring architecture.

The “Remote Desktop” capabilities, allow the K15 to:

Reduce technicians travelling cost and time,because operations can be centralized

Reduce the time needed to solve problems,because inexperienced technicians in remotesites can be supported by skilled personnel at headquarters

Maximize use of experts at headquarters, becausetroubles can be analyzed in real-time withoutwaiting for the technicians to collect traces

With the “NTP and GPS synchronization”capabilities, the K15:

Reduces the time needed to identify the root cause of a problem: with the new “multi-interface call trace,” all interfaces and network elements in the problem domain can be analyzed simultaneously

Grows with the needs: if one instrument is not enough to cope with an increasing numberof interfaces, additional test systems can beadded and synchronized with the existing instrumentation

Deals with the new high complexity problems in 2.5/3G networks: the new categories of problems which occur in the next-generationmobile infrastructures require the ability tomeasure simultaneously and time synchronizedat multiple interfaces in different geographiclocations

The capability to stream protocol data to ahard drive while simultaneously conductingreal time analysis allows the K15 to:

Collect a large amount of data for subsequentanalysis by using a simple “recording pipeline”that stores monitored protocol data in to aninternal HD, to an external HD or to a networkfile system

Merge data collected from different instrumentsat different sites by using an easy to use “FileMerge Application”

Use previously collected data to perform offlineanalysis by using our offline or post processingsoftware

K15 Monitoring Solution for Mobile Networks


The K5302 DASY (Digital Access System) is amultiplexer for E1 and DS1 PCM lines. It consistsof a mainframe, a control unit (DRC) with display,a power supply and a number of input and outputboards. DASY’s main function is to couple singletimeslots or PCM streams from an input board toone or more output boards. With the latest Firm-and Software the DASY also supports the coupling of groups of timeslots, which will haveexactly the same delay when coupled through the DASY.

The K5302 mainframe offers 13 slots to be used by input (DDM) or output (DDA) boards.Any combination of boards is possible, however,at least 1 input and 1 output board are required.As each DDM module can handle up to 8bi-directional PCM lines (either E1 or DS1), theconfiguration with 12 DDM boards and 1 DDAboard would offer a maximum of 96 incomingPCM lines to be connected to the DASY. Theremaining DDA board would offer 4 Tx/Tx (8Rx/Tx respectively) PCM lines. Each of the 2076input timeslots (96*31, TS 0 to be handled sepa-rately) can be coupled to any of the output timeslots.

In order to increase the overall capacity of thesystem, several DASYs may be cascaded.

Digital Access System K5302 DASY


Functional Description



Fields of Application

The K5302 has been designed for various purposes:

To provide protocol testers with flexible and convenient access to a test environment with a huge number of links to be analyzed

Testing under lab conditions often means analyzingdifferent interfaces. The configurations and thusthe cabling often change. After connecting allpossible PCM links to the multiplexer, DASY offersan easy way to couple the appropriate input linksto the output.

To concentrate PCM signaling timeslots in orderto enhance capabilities of protocol testers suchas the K1205

The number of physical PCM interfaces of a pro-tocol tester is usually limited. On the other hand,it is quite common that only very few (even justone) timeslots of a PCM link are used for signal-ing purposes. By multiplexing single timeslots ofseveral links to one output PCM link DASY offersa solution to solve this contradiction.

To duplicate signaling timeslots/PCM links inorder to make the same signaling available forseveral users

It is not unusual for certain PCM links to be ofinterest to different users working with differentanalyzers. Connecting a number of protocol testersto a PCM link may have an impact (due to imped-ance reasons) on this link. As the DASY offers aconvenient way to duplicate single timeslots or evenPCM links, it will make the same link available forseveral users without degrading the performance ofthe PCM links.

In order to avoid operating errors when settingcouplings, a 4 digit PIN can be assigned to eachoutput connector. If the password protection isturned on, users can only set/reset couplings onoutput connectors they have logged into before.To control the configuration of PINs, the usermust have a Master PIN. Couplings may be storedin an EEPROM and will then automatically berestored after a power outage.

Modes of Operation

DASY can be operated in 3 modes:Stand Alone – The complete set of features ofthe DASY can be used without any additionalhardware or software*1. A 20*4 character LCDprovides an intuitive menu to operate DASY withonly 5 keys. This mode of operation should beused for quasi-static configurations

*1 Grouped Couplings can only be set up, modified, and deleted usingthe Remote Control Software.

With DASY Remote Control SW – If more frequent changes of the coupling matrix are required, the remote control application,which comes with the DASY, should be used.This application runs under Windows NT/95/98/Me/2000/XP and provides an easy to useinterface. The PC running this application can beconnected via RS-232 and/or LAN (IEEE 802.3,RJ-45) interface to the DASY. Besides using adirect serial connection via RS-232 (data rates1,200 to 19,200 b/s), it is possible to connect a modem to the DASY and dial in remotely.With the LAN interface it is even possible to control the DASY using the Internet as a transport media

From a User Application – Tektronix offers aControl C Library for Windows NT/95/98/Me/2000/XP, which provides a well defined API(application programming interface). It enables a user to control the DASY from a user applica-tion. This library supports the serial interface aswell as the LAN interface and gives full accessto DASY’s functionality. By using this API, it ispossible to set up to 4 couplings per second.DASY can handle up to 10 TCP/IP connectionssimultaneously



DASY Remote Control Application

The easiest way to operate the DASY is theremote control application. This software is ableto control an unlimited number of DASYs regard-less whether the units are connected directly viaa serial cable, via a modem or a LAN connection(see Figure 1). A Microsoft Explorer-like treestructure offers an easy way to navigate throughthe different DASYs and their input and outputboards. The software automatically detects thehardware and firmware versions of the DASY con-nected to it, and can thus also control elder units.This software offers the following functions:

Easy setup of couplings

Couplings are displayed in a tabular format

Each coupling can be assigned a specific namewhich will be stored (see Figure 2)

The complete configuration can be stored andlater retrieved

The coupling scheduler provides a simple way todefine time limited couplings (see Figure 3)

Configure impedance, framing mode and linecode of DDM-2 and DDA-2 modules

Configure IP address and port as well as the serial parameters (baud rate) for the DRC-2 modules

DASY Remote Control SW displays receiveralarms (overview and details) of all DASYs (see Figure 4)

Configuration/Administration can be automatedusing a simple scripting language

New:

Support of time-synchronized couplings (“Group Couplings”)

Status Display of internal resources (see Figure 5 on next page)

Improved synchronization between resources in DASY and Remote Control Software

Export of DASY configuration and coupling information to CSV file (for further usage in spreadsheet and database applications)

The waveform monitor is a necessary tool duringthe creation and development of material in aNon-Linear Editing (NLE) environment. Unfortunately,many NLE suites do not have a dedicated wave-form monitor. The three main reasons for this are:

Waveform monitor solutions are perceived as difficult to use for tasks specific to editing.

Due to reduced budgets, many facilities cannotafford a dedicated monitor.

Some edit suites are tight on space.

The WFMNLE addresses all three issues for thosecases where a traditional dedicated hardwarebased waveform monitor isn’t desirable.

Ease of Use. In the WFMNLE, Tektronix imple-mented an entry level solution which includes the elements of a monitor that are absolutelyessential for the editing process.

Space Savings. The WFMNLE is a software-onlyapplication that is seamlessly integrated intoAvid’s NLE environments. No external hardware –no fan noise.

Entry Level Price Performance. The price of theWFMNLE is a fraction of hardware-based solutions.

In a world where different sync signals are neededand video formats continue to evolve, you needsignal generators that are accurate yet flexible.Ideally, you will use reference and test signal gen-erators that can be configured for today’s signals and adapted as your signal needs change. Thechart below demonstrates the capabilities andrange of our video and audio signal generators.

Typically, there are two master generators withone utilized as a backup linked through a syncchangeover unit. In case of a failure with themaster generator, the changeover unit will switchto the backup generator.

Determining the number of signals needed for out-put, timing range, accuracy, reliability and the abil-ity to lock to different signals are important factorsto consider when evaluating a reference generator.

Our TG700 Generator provides multi-format genlock (NTSC, PAL, HD Tri-Level and CW) thatsupports your needs today as well as in the future.It also features a wide range of timing adjustmentsallowing sync and test signals to have independenttiming offset through a full color frame. Its config-urability and flexibility offer signal outputs asneeded. This enables you to generate simultaneousoutputs of NTSC, PAL and HD Tri-level syncs foranalog, while the digital modules provide optionaldigital sync outputs for SDI and HD-SDI.

Reference Generators

Our state-of-the-art reference generators, such as the TG700, SPG600, and SPG300 provide timing for all sources of audio and video includinganalog black, digital black, 48 KHz word clock,audio silence and tri-level sync.

Depending on your requirements, more than onegenerator may be needed. The master generatorcontrols the timing for all other generators in thefacility. The slave generator accepts timing signalsfrom the master, and has independent outputs tocorrectly time the equipment in an edit suite or separate video room.

Test Signal Generators

Test signal generators, like our TG700, SPG600,SPG300, TSG131A, TSG601 and TSG95, can helpyou maintain your video equipment and verify theperformance of video signal paths. These genera-tors can help you cut operating costs through fasttroubleshooting and dependable calibration. Foradditional performance, you can link these gener-ators with other Tektronix tools such as our wave-form monitors and the VM700T.

Determining the number of output signals needed,signal accuracy and signal set are factors to beconsidered when evaluating a test signal genera-tor. Regardless of your audio or video applicationor format, Tektronix has a signal generator thatwill meet your current and future needs. It’s whatyou would expect from the leader in video testand measurement tools.

NTSC Video Measurements

Recognized with a technical Emmy award,Tektronix’ world class core competencies haveenabled it to design and deliver the most com-prehensive video measurement solutions in the industry.

Recognized as the de facto industry standard thatkeeps pace with evolving customer needs, theVM700T is a total solution for your basebandvideo and audio monitoring and measurementneeds. Features such as an extremely fast andfully automatic measurement mode as well as fullmanual operation provides the first-time user, aswell as the seasoned professional, an unequaledvalue for their test and measurement investment.

Automatic Video Measurement Set

The VM700T Auto mode makes standard videotransmitter measurements quickly and automati-cally, including those specified in RS-250C/EIA-250C, NTC-7 and RS170A. Both vertical intervaland full field measurements can be made andcompared with user-defined limits. A dual limitverification system is employed to generate acaution or alarm message when either limit is violated. Reports can be generated and printedautomatically at operator scheduled times or triggered from a conditional event.

Graphic Displays of Measurements

Measure mode provides virtual real-time graphicdisplays of measurement results automatically.Vertical interval or full field measurements includ-ing noise spectrum, group delay, K-Factor, differ-ential gain and differential phase are presented as clever, easy to understand interactive digitaldisplays. Such displays are indispensable whenextremely fast measurement update rates (up to30 times a second) are required to provide instantfeedback of critical adjustments and analysis ofsignal variations. User-definable limits are visuallyintegrated into each graphic display and can beused to trigger a measurement report or a user-definable macro function. Such a function can,for example, dial out through a modem to reportmeasurement results or control a signal router.A relative to reference mode allows normalizing to a signal source or eliminate signal path errorsfrom the desired measurement. Up to two videoreferences can be stored in NVRAM. Additionally,after downloading to a PC through the VM700TFTP driver, the video reference can be uploadedto another VM700T for reuse. A running averag-ing mode can be used to reduce the effect ofnoise. When additional measurement data isrequired, a user can custom configure measure-ment parameters and report format.

VM700T.






A powerful Test Signal search capability quicklyand automatically locates and identifies valid testsignals required for a selected measurement,eliminating the annoying and time consumingtask of manually locating test signals.

Digital WaveformMonitor/Vectorscope

The VM700T Waveform mode application providesreal time graphics displays of the video signalallowing many additional measurements to bemade manually. Easy to use measurement cursorsare available to measure time, frequency andamplitude parameters of a video signal. Thesecursors allow a very quick and precise location ofthe 10%, 50% and 90% points on any transition.Cursor mode also employs an automatic calcula-tion in the wave shape in the center of the display.The parameters calculated are sine peak-to-peakamplitude, frequency and offset from blankinglevel. This is very useful for frequency responsemeasurements with the Multiburst signal.

The waveform display can be expanded aroundany point both vertically and horizontally. Sincethe data is digitized, the display remains brightand easy to read at all expansion factors. Thescales automatically expand with the waveform,so all units are correct as displayed. A channeldifference mode (A-B, A-C, B-A, B-C, C-A and C-B) is also provided. A screen memory selectionenables Envelope mode, which is useful for look-ing at teletext, Jitter or other changes over time.

Vector mode provides the normal vectorscope display. The vectors may be rotated or expanded,with the rotation angle and gain values displayednumerically on the screen.

A unique “Find ColorBars” feature searches allvideo for ColorBars and displays the vectors iffound. The vectors can be referenced to either theselected channel’s burst or the burst of one of theother two channels or continuous subcarrier. Thephase difference between the selected channeland the reference is always displayed.

Select Line in both Waveform and Vector modescan be used to quickly specify any line for displayor automatic measurement if it is the proper signal.

Picture Mode

The signal source can be quickly verified usingthe picture display. Additionally, a “bright-up” lineselect mode allows a user to select any video linefor use in Measure mode or for viewing inWaveform or Vector mode.

User Programmable Functions

Function mode is an extremely powerful featurethat allows a user to store a sequence of useroperations as a macro function for later “playback.”

For example, a set of measurements (completewith hard copy commands) to be made on atransmitter demodulator video output, could bestored as a function labeled “DEMOD.” The func-tion “playback” could then be initiated manually,remotely or completely automatically as a userspecified timed event.

Main Measure Mode display of available measurements.

Measure Mode DGDP special position acquisition feature.

In Vector Mode, the VM700T becomes a digitalvectorscope with an electronic graticule. A“ColorBarSearch” feature makes it easy to quickly display a line containing a color bar test signal.

Vertical interval test signals can be seen veryclearly for additional analysis of the signal.These can be printed as support documentationfor automatic measurement results.

Even a single horizontal synchronization pulsecan be displayed at a high intensity.



Function files can be stored as a text file on a PC for editing, copying or uploading to anotherVM700T. Other function capabilities include controlling of external serial devices such asvideo/audio routers, switchers, signal generators,telephone modems and many other devices which support RS-232 communications.

Hard copy

All information on the screen may be printed inhigh resolution graphics on printers supportingPostScript, Hewlett-Packard LaserJet, DeskJetand ThinkJet or 24-Pin Epson graphics via theCentronics compatible parallel port or standardRS-232C interface.

Automatic measurement results in text format can be printed on most ASCII printers using theparallel or serial ports.

Remote Operation

The VM700T has a powerful and fully document-ed remote control language. The VM700T canthus be operated from a remote terminal via RS-232C to monitor unattended transmission systems.In addition, all files can be uploaded to a maincomputer and downloaded to other VM700Ts.Two different protocols are supported: FTP (FileTransfer Protocol) and TELNET. The user can alsoselect a “no protocol” mode of the RS-232C inter-face when dealing with low baud rates. However,file transfers can only take place with FTP.

Characteristics The performance requirements cited in this section arevalid only within the following environmental limits:

Temperature range of 0 to 50 ºC, with a mini-mum warm-up time of 20 minutes. The followingtables list each measurement and its perform-ance requirement.

The range specifies the extremes between whicha measurement can be made.

All measurement accuracies specified are validonly with nominal input signals of 1 Vp-p (±6 dB)with an unweighted signal-to-noise ratio of at least 60 dB on the incoming signal and a termination accuracy of ±0.025% (Tektronix PN 011-0102-01 or equivalent).

Out-of-ServiceMeasurements Measurement Range Accuracy Test Signal Field Time 0 to 40% ±0.5% Field Distortion Square Wave

Measurement Methods – Auto-mode The following paragraphs describe the measurementmethods for each measurement. Each timing measure-ment method is written for the FCC method.

PC-based software package, unique in its capability to display and analyze encoded videostreams for the H.264/AVC, MPEG-4, MPEG-2,H.263+, H.263 and H.261 video compressionstandards. Available for AD95X MPEG TestSystems and as Standalone Software for users’own PCs.

Real-time Error Checking and Reporting

Real-time checking is made on a video stream,looking for errors or noncompliance to the stan-dards. If an error is found, there is an alert “pop-up.”

Alerts can be “Fatal” or “Error” level or “Warning”or “Info,” and can be individually disabled or enabled.

This capability is vital as it may already be knownthat a particular video sequence has a particularerror which can be disabled to identify otherunknown errors.

The MTM400 is a real-time MPEG transportstream monitor. Together with the MLM1000Multi-Layer Monitoring Application,*2 the MTM400 provides a complete solution for transmissionmonitoring of MPEG transport streams.

The MTM400 uses a single transport streamprocessor board packaged in a 1RU rackmountchassis to provide monitoring of a transportstream at data rates up to 155 Mbps*3 based on a single board MPEG transport stream analysisplatform. The platform is used to provide anextended confidence monitoring product that, withthe addition of software options, provides diag-nostic monitoring capabilities. The extended confi-dence monitor provides the key MPEG tests; thisbasic level of functionality and low cost enableswidespread deployment throughout a transmis-sion network, facilitating rapid fault isolation.

The diagnostic monitoring options provide morein-depth analysis of the MPEG transport streamincluding recording capability, PSI/SI/PSIP/ARIBanalysis and unique user-defined template teststo ensure right content, right place, right time.Additionally, optional QPSK and QAM interfacesallow the MTM400 to receive RF inputs and display key RF monitoring parameters includingMER, BER and constellation displays beforedemodulating the signal to provide measurementson the health of the Transport Stream. Deployedat key network nodes, the MTM400 equipped asa diagnostic monitor enables the cause of faultsto be pinpointed and solved.

Flexible andUpgradeable The MTM400 provides a flexible solution with anupgrade path, including diagnostic monitoringfeatures that enable customers to build a cost-effective monitoring system to suit their individualrequirements. Diagnostic capability can be addedto the key monitoring points where transportstreams are manipulated while extended confi-dence monitoring probes can be installedthroughout the network:

Triggered recording enables problems to be captured and analyzed in greater depth usingoffline analysis tools such as the Tektronix MPEG Test System Standalone Software*2

PSI/SI/PSIP/ARIB SI Analysis and repetition rategraphing allows broadcasters to determine thatthe system information is present and correct inthe transport stream

Template testing checks a number of key param-eters to ensure that the transport stream hasbeen constructed as the broadcaster intended.These parameters include the Transport StreamID and Network ID, the number of programs inthe multiplex, that each program has all of itscomponents (Video, Audio, Data, Teletext,Subtitles) and Conditional Access (CA) status

Bit rate testing determines whether PIDs,programs, services or user-defined groups ofPIDs are within user-definable limits to ensurecorrect multiplex operation. Tektronix-proprietaryPID variability test gives indication of PID bit rate variation to assess effects of statistical multiplexing

In-depth PCR analysis with graphical results viewsenable timing and jitter measurements to bemade to ensure correct operation of the network

Product Information

The MLM1000 isEssentially Comprised of Six Applications,Described Below

Hot Spot Application

This allows the overall structure of the monitoringsystem to be displayed through Hot Spots placedover a user-defined background. Each Hot Spotrepresents the status of a device or a lower levelHot Spot view. Pressing a button takes the user tothe application representing the view it is linkedto (i.e., another Hot Spot application or deviceapplication). In this way, hierarchical views of thesystem can be developed, and users can controland monitor multiple devices.

Admin/User Setup Application

The application enables access to the MLM1000either as a user (who can monitor devices in thenetwork) or as an administrator (who can set up,configure devices, add users, manage the MLMsystem). Only an Administrator can allocate apassword to the user, and lock or unlock the maps.

Event Viewer Application

Monitors the activity of the MLM1000 and providesinformation, warning and error conditions log of

events. These events include activities such aswho logs into the network, how the system is configured and device changes and provideswarning of alarm conditions produced by the vari-ous devices on the network. This event log can be saved as a *.CSV file for exporting to variousspreadsheet programs for further data analysis.

The MLM1000 provides some simple graphicaltools to show distribution of errors for the deviceor occurrences of the various alarms over time.

Alarm View and Reporting Application

Alarms can be viewed either via an alarm occurrencegraph or via an alarm distribution graph. The Alarmoccurrence graph displays the time of occurrencefor each of the alarms for the selected device,while the alarm distribution graph displays a piechart of all the alarms for the selected device.

The diagram to the left shows the AlarmDistribution Graph.

The reporting application allows a user to generatea report for the selected device, save the report inPDF format, export and print the report.

Discovery of Devices

A set of IP address search ranges can be definedfor the MLM1000. Over this range the softwarewill automatically search for the various devicesavailable on the network and will continuallyupdate the devices available. These devices canthen be incorporated into the Hot Spot views at a specific location appropriate for the device.

Launch Remote User Interface (RUI)

Picture Quality Analysis System

Introducing the PQA300… the industry’s leadingobjective picture quality measurement tool basedon the Emmy Award-winning PQA200 platform.

The PQA300 analyzes picture quality with repeat-able, objective measurements that directly repli-cate subjective human visual assessments. Thesemeasurements provide invaluable information forengineers working to optimize video compressionwithout compromising picture quality.

The PQA300 is both a generator and analyzer of reference test material for testing compressedvideo systems. Standard inputs and outputs are270 Mb/s serial component (Rec. 601). Option 01provides analog composite NTSC/PAL inputs and outputs.

Compressed Video Requires a New Method of Testing

The best measure of any analog or digital televi-sion system is the viewer’s satisfaction with theimage received. Traditionally, the quality of analogand full-bandwidth digital video systems has beenmeasured indirectly by measuring the distortionsof static test signals.

Compressed television systems, however, pose afar more difficult measurement challenge. Picturequality in these systems changes dynamically basedon the data rate, picture complexity and encodingalgorithm employed. The static nature of test signalsdoes not provide true characterization of picturequality. Natural test scenes that are far morecomplex than test signals must be used to stressthe capabilities of compressed video systems.

Until now, subjective testing using human viewershas been the only available method for evaluatingcompressed video systems. But, while useful forestablishing academic reference data, subjectivetesting has been impractical for operational,manufacturing and troubleshooting applications –until the development of the Tektronix PQA300,which provides a fast, practical and repeatableobjective measurement alternative to subjectiveevaluation of picture quality.

How It Works

The PQA300 measures a 2-second portion of a5-second video test sequence. The video testsequences may be downloaded from suppliedCD-ROMs or recorded from your own video, andplayed out to the system under test. While serialdigital interfaces are standard, analog compositeand S-Video (Y/C) interfaces can also be accom-modated with the addition of Option 01.

The output of the system under test is then stored and analysis performed with DSP-acceleratedhardware on the 2-second sequence. The measurement results in a single numeric value of

In addition to reporting the Picture Quality Rating,the PQA300 provides PSNR-values and an ani-mated map whose intensity is related to the per-ceived differences between the original and cap-tured image. This provides invaluable informationfor evaluation and optimization of digital videocompression systems.

The Tektronix RFA300A provides fast, easy andefficient solutions for 8VSB RF measurement needswhile delivering the measurement accuracy andease of use you’ve come to expect from Tektronix.The range of capabilities offered by the RFA300Aincludes all measurement functions required toinstall, operate and maintain an 8VSB transmitter.

The RFA300A brings the heritage of the Tektronix VM700 to RF measurements for 8VSBDTV transmitters. The RFA300A provides a suiteof measurements that permit the user to examineor measure important DTV parameters includingconstellation, eye diagram, peak to average powerratio, linear errors and non-linear distortion.Measurement displays provide numeric data augmented with easy to interpret graphics whichallow the operator to visually determine opera-tional performance of the transmitter.

The RFA300A can measure individual operatingparameters or provide continuous monitoring oftransmitter operation with notification if user-selectable limits are violated.

Measurements

Signal/Noise, the ratio of the ideal real axis signalpower to all other contributions (noise, distortion,etc.), is an all-in-one quality measurement of the8VSB signal. Error Vector Magnitude is the squareroot of the mean complex relative noise powerdivided by the real (in-phase) part of the outermostconstellation state. Modulation Error Ratio is a com-plex form of the Signal/Noise measurement, whichis made by including quadrature channel informa-tion in the ideal and error signal computations.

Out-of-channel emissions are spectral power vs.frequency measurements similar to those madeby a spectrum analyzer. The measurement ismade and scaled in accordance with the complex,FCC specified method. The RFA300A measures to>–80 dB on the FCC scale.

Transmitter Frequency Response Error measure-ments are plots of the transmitter’s spectralamplitude vs. frequency with respect to the ideal8VSB root-cosine transmitter curve.

Transmitter Group Delay Error measurements areplots of the transmitter’s group delay response asa function of frequency.

Amplitude Error is the difference between thetransmitter’s actual vs. its ideal instantaneousoutput amplitude. This difference is plotted vs.the ideal instantaneous signal amplitude, resultingin a display of the transmitter’s dynamic powerlinearity. Phase Error similarly plots the carrier’sphase angle error as a function of instantaneoussignal amplitude. These nonlinear distortionmeasurements are unique to the RFA300A.

The In-service Phase Noise measurement displaysthe transmitter’s Phase Noise characteristics.Normally only available as an out-of-servicemeasurement, in-service phase noise is anRFA300A proprietary measurement.

Peak to Average power ratio displays the statisticalamplitude distribution of the transmitter’s signal.It is another way of determining the transmitter’spower linearity.

Simple Operation

Operation of the RFA300A is extremely user-friendly. No detailed 8VSB knowledge is requiredto make accurate measurements. The high-resolution color display provides a clear view ofmeasurement results and waveforms. A VGA out-put is also provided to drive an external monitor.Instrument control is by mouse, a VM700-liketouch screen, front panel buttons and knob or bykeyboard entry. Key parameters and measuredvalues are displayed in easy to read form, bothnumerically (in large text) and graphically.

Product Information

The RFM210 offers comprehensive RF confidencemonitoring and support for a wide range of DVB-Ttransmitter configurations, with network capabilityin an affordable, space-efficient package. Workingin combination with other Tektronix monitoringproducts and backed by Tektronix world classservice and support, the RFM210 offers a superi-or value solution for monitoring critical links inDVB-T broadcasting systems, helping broadcast-ers avoid costly quality and reliability problemsand lower overall operating expenses.

Comprehensive RF Signal Monitoring

The RFM210 measures a comprehensive set oftransmission parameters and can identify degra-dations in transmitter performance or efficiencybefore they become major quality or reliabilityheadaches. For example, most DVB-T confidencemonitors measure Bit-Error-Rate (BER) as a pri-mary figure of merit for transmitter operations.This measurement lacks the sensitivity needed to detect the onset of performance degradation.The RFM210 measures both BER and ModulationError Ratio (MER). The highly sensitive MERmeasure looks at multiple factors such as carrierleakage, I/Q level and quadrature imbalance todevelop a figure of merit that can identify subtleperformance degradations.

Flexible Configuration

DVB-T transmission systems throughout the worlduse a variety of modulation parameters. TheRFM210 has the flexible tuning/demodulationcapability needed to handle this variety. Thetuner/demodulator can handle any standard VHF,UHF or baseband input, implements both 2K and8K carrier mode options, and supports all DVBmodulation options, guard intervals and FEC rates.Options available for 6, 7 or 8 MHz bandwidths.

The 1705A is a compact, specialized spectrummonitor designed for operators of portable televisionearth stations to adjust transmission equipmentand to correctly access geostationary satellitesoperated by public and private communicationsorganizations. The 1705A offers expanded capa-bilities for observing the 850 MHz wide frequencyband used by international satellite carriers.

Dual Band Operation

Separate signal inputs allow connection to thetwo primary signals of interest in a televisionuplink/downlink system. A 45-100 MHz bandallows observation of the television exciter at the70 MHz IF monitoring point for a check of videodeviation and aural subcarrier injection. A 950-1800 MHz band, with a separate RF input, allowsobservation of the full satellite downlink spectrumas down converted by the antenna-mounted,low-noise block down converter (not supplied).The input levels available in typical satellite television systems match the input sensitivity ofthe 1705A without need for operator adjustableinput attenuators.

In addition to a span of the full spectrum in eachband, the 1705A allows a selection of narrowspans and resolution filters for observation ofindividual satellite transponders, the video FMmodulation envelope, or associated audio carriers.

Using the 1705A, the operator can quickly identifythe assigned satellite and transponder and correctly adjust the direction and polarization ofthe portable uplink/downlink antenna. Precise

antenna pointing is facilitated by a selectable2 dB or 10 dB per major division vertical screensensitivity with vertical position control.

Compact Size

The 1705A is unique in size, shape and utility.8.5 in. (215.9 mm) wide and 5.25 in. (133.4 mm)high, it fits into a standard Tektronix dual half-rack WFM7F05 Option OO cabinet, along with a matching 1700 Series waveform, vector orcombination monitor.

Microprocessor Control

A menu selected readout offset allows on-screenindication of the Ku-band or C-band satelliteoperating frequency in steps of 10 MHz. The offsetmay be set for local oscillators operating above orbelow the received signal. The status of all frontpanel buttons is stored when power is removedand all modes are restored on power-up, readyfor quick operation. Function indicators are lightedfor visibility in television operating environments.
