RFmxLteMXSemResults.FetchLowerOffsetMargin Method

RFmxLteMXSemResultsFetchLowerOffsetMargin Method

Returns the measurement status, margin, frequency at margin, and the absolute and relative powers at the margin for lower offset segments. The relative power is relative to the total aggregated power.
Use "offset(n)" or "subblock(n)/offset(n)" as the selector string to read results from this method.
Refer to the LTE Uplink Spectral Emission Mask and LTE Downlink Spectral Emission Mask topics for more information.

Parameters

selectorString
Type: SystemString
Specifies a selector string comprising of the result name, subblock number, and offset number. If you do not specify the result name, the default result instance is used. Example:
"subblock0/offset0"
"result::r1/subblock0/offset0"
You can use the BuildOffsetString(String, Int32) method to build the selector string.
timeout
Type: SystemDouble
Specifies the timeout for fetching the specified measurement. This value is expressed in seconds. Set this value to an appropriate time, longer than expected for fetching the measurement. A value of -1 specifies that the method waits until the measurement is complete.
measurementStatus
Type: NationalInstruments.RFmx.LteMXRFmxLteMXSemLowerOffsetMeasurementStatus
Upon return, contains the measurement status indicating whether the power before and after the burst is within the standard defined limit.
margin
Type: SystemDouble
Upon return, contains the margin from the standard-defined absolute limit mask for the lower (negative) offset. Margin is defined as the minimum difference between the spectrum and the limit mask. For the intra-band non-contiguous type of carrier aggregation, the offset segment may be truncated or discarded based on offset overlap rules as defined in the 3GPP TS 36.521 specification. If the offset segment is truncated, the SEM results lower offset start frequency and SEM results lower offset stop frequency are updated, and the measurement is performed on the updated offset segment. If the offset segment is discarded, a NaN is returned.
marginFrequency
Type: SystemDouble
Upon return, contains the frequency at which the margin occurs in the lower (negative) offset. For the intra-band non-contiguous type of carrier aggregation, the offset segment may be truncated or discarded based on offset overlap rules as defined in the 3GPP TS 36.521 specification. If the offset segment is truncated, the SEM results lower offset start frequency and SEM results lower offset stop frequency are updated, and the measurement is performed on the updated offset segment. If the offset segment is discarded, a NaN is returned.
marginAbsolutePower
Type: SystemDouble
Upon return, contains the power at which the margin occurs in the upper (positive) offset segment. For the intra-band non-contiguous type of carrier aggregation, the offset segment may be truncated or discarded based on offset overlap rules as defined in the 3GPP TS 36.521 specification. If the offset segment is truncated, the SEM results lower offset start frequency and SEM results lower offset stop frequency are updated, and the measurement is performed on the updated offset segment. If the offset segment is discarded, a NaN is returned.
marginRelativePower
Type: SystemDouble
Upon return, contains the power at which the margin occurs in the upper (positive) offset segment relative to the value returned by the GetTotalAggregatedPower(String, Double) method. For the intra-band non-contiguous type of carrier aggregation, the offset segment may be truncated or discarded based on offset overlap rules as defined in the 3GPP TS 36.521 specification. If the offset segment is truncated the measurement is performed on the updated offset segment. If the offset segment is discarded, a NaN is returned.

Return Value

Type: Int32
Returns the status code of this method. The status code either indicates success or describes a warning condition.
