Mobile WiMAX RF Measurements option

The Mobile WiMAX measurement capability has been designed into three options to provide users with flexibility. The Mobile WiMAX RF Measurements option can be used to measure the transmitted signal strength and signal shape of a transmitter. When configured with the RF Measurement option, the handheld analyzers can conduct Channel Spectrum, Power versus Time (with 5 ms and 10 ms frame lengths), and ACPR measurements. RF summary screens can also be displayed with the option.

Mobile WiMAX Demodulator

Engineers and technicians can use the Mobile WiMAX Demodulator to analyze OFDMA signals and display detailed measurements for evaluating transmitter modulation performance. The measurement screens that can be displayed are constellation (QPSK, 16 QAM, 64 QAM), spectral flatness, EVM versus subcarrier, EVM versus symbol, DL MAP with automatic decoding, and modulation summary.

Mobile WiMAX OTA option

A channel power monitor measurement is part of the Mobile WiMAX OTA option and allows a specific channel's power over time and specified interval to be analyzed. This feature can be combined with a GPS feature so that measurement data can include GPS location and time data for plotting on a map. Anritsu's powerful Master Software Tools enable easy integration into MapInfo Professional and Microsoft MapPoint maps.

Spectrum Master MS2721B - Mobile WiMAX handheld

All the options can be used with the MT8222A BTS Master, and the Spectrum Master MS2721B, MS2723B, and MS2724B analyzers. Weighing less than nine pounds, the MT8222A is the smallest, lightest, and most economical handheld solution for complete 2G/3G/4G base station testing. The MS2721B, MS2723B, and MS2724B are the most advanced ultra-portable 7.1 GHz, 13 GHz, and 20 GHz spectrum analyzers on the market. The introduction of the Mobile WiMAX test and analysis capability continues Anritsu's commitment to providing test solutions designed to expedite the deployment of new technologies. Anritsu introduced the world's first handheld Fixed WiMAX test solution earlier this year. Anritsu also has test solutions that can be used during the design and manufacture of WiMAX devices and systems.
