Description
The HPA is capable of providing 64-
QAM maximum carrier-rated average
power.
When the PA function is enabled the achievable average
power in the presence of 64- QAM modulated carrier(s)
ranges from:
Reference signal generator will be set for the following setup conditions:
Data Source: PN
Repeat: Continuous
Phase Polarity: Normal
Differential Data Encoding: Off
