Example:
In the sample file PowerClass_39_43.xml under
C:\ProgramData\Rohde-Schwarz\ZNL-FPL\sem_std\WCDMA\3GPP, these
attributes are defined as follows:
●
Standard="W-CDMA 3GPP"
●
LinkDirection="DL"
●
PowerClass="(39,43)dBm"
The "PowerClass" element
It is embedded in the BaseFormat element and contains settings information about
the power classes. Up to four different power classes can be defined. For details, refer
to "Power Classes" on page 182. The child nodes and attributes of this element are
shown in Table 7-14.
The "Range" element
This element is embedded in the PowerClass element. It contains the settings infor-
mation of the range. There have to be at least three defined ranges: one reference
range and at least one range to either side of the reference range. The maximum num-
ber of ranges is 30. Note that the R&S FPL1000 uses the same ranges in each power
class. Therefore, the contents of the ranges of each defined power class have to be
identical to the first power class. The Start and Stop values of the two Limit nodes
that are used to determine the power class are an exception. Note also that you must
define two limit nodes: one that defines the limit in absolute values and one in relative
values. Make sure units for the Start and Stop nodes are identical for each Limit
node.
For details, refer to "Sweep List" on page 174. The child nodes and attributes of this
element are shown in Table 7-15.
The following tables show the child nodes and attributes of each element and show if a
child node or attribute is mandatory for the R&S FPL1000 to interpret the file or not.
The hierarchy of the XML cannot be seen in the tables. View one of the predefined files
already stored on the R&S FPL1000 in the "C:
\ProgramData\Rohde-Schwarz\ZNL-FPL\sem_std" directory, or check the struc-
ture as shown below.
Below, a basic example of the structure of the file is shown, containing all mandatory
attributes and child nodes. Note that the PowerClass element and the Range element
are themselves elements of the BaseFormat element. They must be inserted where
noted. They are separated here simply to provide a better overview. Also, no example
values are given here to allow a quick reference to the tables above. Italic font shows
the placeholders for the values.
●
The BaseFormat element is structured as follows:
– <RS_SEM_ACP_FileFormat Version="1.0.0.0">
<Name>"Standard"</Name>
<Instrument>
<Type>"Instrument Type"</Type>
<Application>"Application"</Application>
