PRFMsc Fetch PxdB

Fetches the PxdB results.

You can select from the following instances of this VI:

PRFMsc Fetch PxdB (Trace)

Fetches the compression power at x dB (PxdB) in a trace format.


PAE Reference In

Specifies the session reference handle of the PAE measurement session.

PxdB Not Found Value

Specifies the value to be returned when the PxdB value is not found. The default value is 0.

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

PAE Reference Out

Returns the session reference handle of the PAE measurement session.

Power Output at PxdB

Returns the output power when the DUT is in compression of PxdB over a frequency range.

Power Input at PxdB

Returns the input power when the DUT is in compression of PxdB over a frequency range.

PxdB Not Found

Returns the value you specify in the PxdB Not Found Value parameter, indicating that this VI could not find the PxdB over a frequency range.

error out

Error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.

PRFMsc Fetch PxdB (All)

Fetches the compression power at x dB (PxdB) in a tabulated format.


PAE Reference In Specifies the reference name of the PAE measurement session.

error in Error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

PAE Reference Out Returns the reference name of the PAE measurement session.

Output Power Returns the RF power measured for the DUT on the last measured frequency.

Input Power Returns the RF Input power applied at the DUT input port for the last measured frequency.



PxdB Results Returns the measured PxdB results. This parameter returns a 1D array that contains Pin@PxdB, Pout@PxdB, PxdB Found, Gain (linear range), and Frequency level (Hz).

Pin@PxdB Returns the input power at the PxdB. This value is expressed in dBm.

Pout@PxdB Returns the output power at the PxdB. This value is expressed in dBm.

PxdB Found Indicates whether the algorithm encountered the PxdB.
TRUE The algorithm encountered the PxdB.
FALSE The algorithm did not encounter the PxdB.

Gain (linear range) Returns the calculated gain for linear range.

Frequency Level (Hz) Returns the obtained frequency.

error out Error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.
