1.1 Product Overview
MX371055A Interference Waveform Pattern for 5G NR Receiver Test
(hereafter “this waveform pattern”) contains QPSK modulation waveform
patterns of interference for 5G NR UE Receiver Test conforming to the
3GPP standard and table at the table 1.1-1.
Downloading this waveform pattern to the MG3710A/MG3710E Vector
Signal Generator (hereafter MG3710A/MG3710E) supports generation of
interference signals used at Receiver test items in Table 1.1-1.
Use of this waveform pattern requires a license corresponding to the
serial number of the MG3710A/MG3710E using the pattern. When using
this pattern on multiple MG3710A/MG3710E units, a license must be
purchased for each MG3710A/MG3710E unit using this pattern.
The MG3710A/MG3710E must include the minimum required
configuration shown in Table 1.1-1 when using this waveform pattern.

How to Use Waveform Patterns
2.1.2 Transferring waveform pattern to internal hard disk
There are two ways of transferring the waveform pattern created with
this waveform pattern to the internal hard disk:
●LAN
●External device such as USB flash drive
■Transferring from PC to MG3710A/MG3710E via LAN
Two IQproducer™ tools can be used to transfer a waveform pattern to
the MG3710A/MG3710E via a LAN.
●Transfer & Setting Wizard
Start this wizard by clicking the Transfer & Setting Wizard button of
IQproducer™ or by selecting Simulation & Utility tab →Transfer &
Setting Wizard from the IQproducer™ after creating a waveform
pattern.
For details, refer to 4.7 “File Transfer and Loading to Memory Using
Transfer & Setting Wizard” in the
MG3710A/MG3710E IQproducer™.
Transferring a waveform pattern to the internal hard disk of the
MG3710A/MG3710E, loading the waveform from the hard disk to the
waveform memory, and then outputting the waveform pattern can be
done using this wizard.
●Transfer & Setting Panel
This function is loaded by selecting Transfer & Setting Panel in the
Simulation & Utility tab of the IQproducer™. For details, refer to 5.2
“Transferring Waveform Pattern” in the
MG3710A/MG3710E
IQproducer™
.
Specify the folder that contains the waveform pattern to transfer to
the MG3710A/MG3710E in the PC-side tree of Transfer & Setting
Panel.
■Transferring via external device such as USB flash drive
For how to transfer a waveform pattern to the internal hard disk of the
MG3710A/MG3710E, refer to 7.3.6 “Copying external waveform pattern:
Copy” in the
MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual .

Chapter 2 How to Use Waveform Patterns

2.1.3 Loading to waveform memory
To output a modulated signal using this waveform pattern, it is
necessary to load the waveform pattern that was transferred to the
internal hard disk of the MG3710A/MG3710E (described in 2.1.2
“Transferring waveform pattern to internal hard disk”) to the waveform
memory. A waveform pattern can be loaded into the waveform memory in
the following two ways.
■Configuring using the MG3710A/MG3710E
A waveform pattern can be loaded into the waveform memory by using
the instruction panel of the MG3710A/MG3710E or by using a remote
command.
For operation using the front panel, refer below:
●
MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual
7.3.4 “Loading waveform pattern: Load”
For operation using remote commands, refer below:
●
MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual
7.3.4 “Loading waveform pattern: Load”
■Using Transfer & Setting Panel of IQproducer™
A waveform pattern can be loaded from the LAN-connected PC to the
memory by using Transfer & Setting Panel, which can be opened from
the Simulation & Utility tab. For details, refer to 4.6 “File Transfer and
Loading to Memory in Transfer & Setting Panel Screen” in the
MG3710A/MG3710E IQproducer™ .

2.1.4 Selecting waveform pattern
Select a waveform pattern to use for modulation from the waveform
patterns loaded into the waveform memory of the MG3710A/MG3710E
according to 2.1.3 “Loading to waveform memory”. A waveform pattern
can be selected in the following two ways.
■Configuring using the MG3710A/MG3710E
Waveform patterns to be used for modulation can be selected by using
the instruction panel of the MG3710A/MG3710E or by using a remote
command.
For operation using the front panel, refer below:
●
MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual
7.3.5 “Selecting output waveform pattern: Select”
For operation using remote commands, refer below:
●
MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual
7.3.5 “Selecting output waveform pattern: Select”
■Using Transfer & Setting Panel of IQproducer™
A waveform pattern can be loaded from the LAN-connected PC to the
memory, and also selected for modulation. This is done by using Transfer
& Setting Panel, which can be opened from the Simulation & Utility tab.
For details, refer to 4.6 “File Transfer and Loading to Memory in
