Creating a Test Plan - CE 302502 ​

The CE 302502 option is used for EU CE (RED) certification testing of 5.8 GHz Broadband Fixed Wireless Access (BFWA) data transmitting systems per EN 302 502.


Basic Settings ​

CE_302502_overview


  • Title: Test plan name, entered by the user.


  • Type: Technical category, Proprietary (custom configuration).


  • Num of Chains: Number of transmit chains (antennas) the product has.


  • Mode: Custom mode table:

    • Title: Mode number; other names can be manually input according to customer requirements.

    • BW(MHz): Channel bandwidth, selectable 10 / 20 MHz.

    • TX Type: Transmission type, SISO / MIMO.

    • LCH / MCH / HCH: Low / middle / high channel frequency settings (MHz).

    • CSP: Channel Spacing.

    • Action: Used to add / delete mode configuration rows.


  • Carrier Wave: Whether the product supports carrier wave transmission. If Yes is selected, the frequency error will be measured in carrier wave mode.


  • TPC Support: Confirm whether the product supports TPC (Transmit Power Control). Affects the power-related limits.


  • Operation Mode: Operating mode of the product: Master (master device, which actively performs channel checks) / Slave (slave device).


  • Antenna Gain:

    • Title: Antenna number, named sequentially by default as 1, 2, 3, 4....

    • Gain: Gain of each antenna.

    • Cable Loss: Cable loss of the RF cable from the product's antenna port to the Switch Box or the SA (spectrum analyzer). How to Create Common Cable Loss.

    • Switch Box Port: Port number of the switch connected to the product's antenna.

    • Item: Test items for each antenna; the numbers correspond as follows:

      • (C30250200) Duty Cycle

      • (C30250201) Frequency Error

      • (C30250203) Transmitter RF Output Power

      • (C30250204) EIRP Spectral Power Density

      • (C30250205) Transmitter Unwanted Emissions Outside The 5 725 MHz To 5 875 MHz Band

      • (C30250206) Transmitter Unwanted Emissions Within The 5 725 MHz To 5 875 MHz Band

      • (C30250207) Receiver Spurious Emissions

      • (C30250209) Receiver Blocking

      The software preselects the default test items according to the technical characteristics. Note: In some cases, test parameters are mutually referenced between items; it is recommended to create the test plan with the default items.


Advanced Setting and Special Eut Settings ​

CE_302502_advanced

The following settings can generally be kept at their default values. Adjust them only when the test results are abnormal or there are special test requirements.


  • Switch Box: Whether to use a Switch Box. If a Switch Box has not been purchased, select No, and the product will be directly connected to the spectrum analyzer for testing.


  • External Filter: Whether an external filter is used in the RF path during testing.


  • Env: Environmental conditions to test, multi-select: NTNV / LTNV / HTNV (normal temp normal volt / low temp normal volt / high temp normal volt).


  • Channel Config: Channel configuration, Default or Custom (manually customized channels).


  • Hide Image Elements: Select the elements to hide in report images (e.g., the Ant antenna marker).


  • RU POS Show: How the RU position is displayed in the report: POS / POS Number / POS And POS Number.


  • RU Priority: RU test priority: Full RU First / Sequence.


  • Special Setting: Special settings. Options prefixed with [D] are debug options and do not need to be checked for normal testing:

    • [D] Virtual Data / [D] Random Data / [D] Ignore Eut Confirm / [D] Random Status: Debug options.


  • Min Power: Sets the minimum power (dBm); 0 means automatic.


  • Min Idle: Minimum idle time (ms).


  • Blocking Mode: Receiver blocking test mode: Default / All.


  • 100% Duty Cycle: Whether the sample's duty cycle is 100% (Unknown / Yes / No); only needs to be selected when the system misjudges the duty cycle.
