Using the External Frame Trigger Function with the EDGE
Format
NOTE This function is available only when the Frame Trigger Source BCH PDCH is set to
PDCH.
The External Frame Trigger Function is used to adjust the burst timing at PDCH
synchronization. This requires calculating a delay value and then adjusting the initial value.
Measuring the Initial Delay Value
1. Configure the BTS and the VSA setup. Refer to Figure 6-15.
Figure 6-15 System Configuration for Measuring External Delay Value
2. Set up the BTS to transmit the frame trigger EDGE burst at timeslot 0.
3. On the VSA, press
Mode > EDGE w/GSM.
4. Press
Measure > Waveform (Time Domain).
5. Press
Meas Setup > Trig Source > Ext Front.
6. Press
Makers.
7. Use the marker function to find the offset value (D), in microseconds, between the BTS
frame trigger and the starting edge of the midamble. Refer to Figure 6-16 on page 181.
