3.1.4FAT Channel Micro-reflection Test


This test fulfills band pass ripple, group delay and static ghost impairments.

Equipment: HP11759D Ghost Simulator (or TAS or Rhode and Schwarz SFQ.) 256QAM source, Spectrum analyzer, Analog NTSC source.

Procedure:

Step#

Procedure

Pass/Fail

PICS



Set up the ghost simulator as described in the next steps.

N/A






Set NTSC signal on a mid channel at 0 dBmV

N/A






Set the ghost generator primary path for 0dB attenuation, 0 phase, 0 delay, LO oscillator to 207 MHz at +10 dBm

N/A






Verify proper video reception on all tuners.




MHost.6



Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase, -10dB @ 0.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (NTSC)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase, -15dB @ 1 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (NTSC)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase -20dB @ 1.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (NTSC)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase-30dB @ 4.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (NTSC)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Replace NTSC source with 256QAM signal on mid channel at 0 dBmV.

N/A






Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase, -10dB @ 0.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (256QAM)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase, -15dB @ 1 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq. (256QAM)




HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32






Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase -20dB @ 1.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq.

(256QAM)





HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32





Verify Proper reception with the ghost generator secondary path Set to Phase -30dB @ 4.5 uSec, 0 degrees referenced to RF channel center freq.

(256QAM)





HFATrf.26

HFATrf.28

HFATrf.29

HFATrf.32



Note: 256QAM modulation will represent the worst case scenario for this test. A micro-reflection of –10 dB @ 0.5 uSec is required in order to meet the 250 nSec group delay specification

3.1.5FAT Channel Phase Noise Tolerance


This test verifies operation of QAM signals under phase noise conditions

Equipment: HP model #8675A FM signal generator, (NoiseCom model #7102) Audio white noise source, passive double balanced mixer (ex. Mini circuits ZFM 15), 256QAM source at 150 MHz, spectrum analyzer

Procedure:

Step#

Procedure

Pass/Fail

PICS



Set the FM signal generator to 63MHz at +10dBm.

N/A






Connect the audio noise source to FM input on the signal generator.

N/A






Connect signal generator to spectrum analyzer.

N/A






Set Spectrum Analyzer freq. To 63 MHz, 50kHz span, resolution BW to 1 kHz.

N/A






Set two markers, first marker @ PEAK, then press the marker delta soft key to set second marker @ 10 KHz below PEAK marker.

N/A






Adjust FM deviation of the signal generator so that spectrum analyzers 10 kHz offset measures –56dBc. Video averaging “on” is suggested to obtain a stable reading on spectrum analyzer. (Alternate: QAM source at IF, generator at 257 MHz)

N/A






This set up initializes phase noise at –86dBc per Hz at 10 kHz offset. 30dB correction factor that corresponds to1 kHz resolution bandwidth.

N/A






Connect signal generator output to mixer L port.

N/A






Connect 256QAM signal to mixer I port at +6 dBmV.

N/A






Verify that the signal level output is 0dBmV. Connect mixer output to DUT input.

N/A






Tune DUT to channel 13.

N/A






Verify proper reception.




HFATrf.27



Verify proper reception on all additional tuners.
