 GSM Measurements
GSM Receiver (SeeGull™LX)
Dynamic Telecommunications' (PCTEL) newest version of the GSM scanning receiver is based on the SeeGull LX platform, which provides high-speed measurements and superior performance. This receiver is a DSP-based software radio that provides unparalleled precision and user-defined options for the measurement of GSM networks. PCTEL's scanning receivers are used globally to optimize wireless network performance via drive test and measurement, tower site survey, base station monitoring, and wireless market analysis tools.
Operational Modes:
Spectrum Analyzer
Measures and reports power spectral density using frequency domain techniques. Frequency span in the RF Band, resolution bandwidth (5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 kHz), and sweep averaging (1, 2, 4, 8, and 16) are adjustable.
Distance Based Sampling Option
A cost-effective and user friendly approach in providing both model tuning and optimization capability in one tool. User can select distance that needs to be traveled in between two consecutive RSSI Frequency measurements in 30 kHz bandwidth. Currently available in 800 MHz and 1900 MHz bands.
RSSI Scan
Measures and reports RSSI for a given channel list. The measurement bandwidth is selectable as either 30 kHz or 200 kHz. Tuning resolution matches band channelization.
BSIC Decoding Option
The BSIC is decoded in the receiver and can be used for identifying the transmitting base station. BSIC sensitivity is increased with the LX platform.
C/I Measurements (included with BSIC option)
Provides co-channel interference measurements.
BCCH Decoding Option
Enables decoding of BCCH Type 3 message, including Cell ID, MCC, MNC, and LAC parameters. Decoding is supported on numerous user selectable BCCH frequency channels.
Multiple Scan Lists
Thousands of different concurrent measurements in different operational modes can be performed on different frequencies.
Built-in GPS Option
The optional internal GPS receiver is controlled through a single RS-232 port.
