RFmxWCDMA_SEMFetchUpperOffsetPower

int32 __stdcall RFmxWCDMA_SEMFetchUpperOffsetPower (niRFmxInstrHandle instrumentHandle, char selectorString[], float64 timeout, float64* absoluteIntegratedPower, float64* relativeIntegratedPower, float64* absolutePeakPower, float64* peakFrequency, float64* relativePeakPower);

Purpose

Fetches the integrated absolute and relative powers, absolute and relative peak powers, and the frequency at the absolute peak power of the upper offset segment for the SEM measurement. The relative power is relative to the total carrier power.
Use "offset<n>" as the selector string to read results from this function.

Parameters

Input
Name Type Description
instrumentHandle niRFmxInstrHandle Specifies the instrument session. The RFmx driver obtains this parameter from the RFmxWCDMA_Initialize function.
selectorString char[] Specifies a selector string comprising of the signal name, result name, and offset number. If you do not specify the signal name, the default signal instance is used. If you do not specify the result name, the default result instance is used.
Example:
"offset0"
"signal::sig1/offset0"
"result::r1/offset0"
"signal::sig1/result::r1/offset0"
You can use the RFmxWCDMA_BuildOffsetString function to build the selector string.
timeout float64 Specifies the timeout, in seconds, for fetching the specified measurement. Set this value to an appropriate time, longer than expected for fetching the measurement. A value of -1 specifies that the function waits until the measurement is complete.
Output
Name Type Description
absoluteIntegratedPower float64* Returns the power measured in the upper, or positive, offset segment. This value is expressed in dBm.
relativeIntegratedPower float64* Returns the power measured in the upper, or positive, offset segment relative to the RFMXWCDMA_ATTR_SEM_RESULTS_TOTAL_CARRIER_POWER attribute. This value is expressed in dB.
absolutePeakPower float64* Returns an array of peak power values measured in the lower, or negative, offset segments This value is expressed in dBm.
peakFrequency float64* Returns the frequency corresponding to the upper offset segment peak power. This value is expressed in Hz.
relativePeakPower float64* Returns the peak power measured in the upper, or positive, offset segment relative to the RFMXWCDMA_ATTR_SEM_RESULTS_TOTAL_CARRIER_POWER attribute. This value is expressed in dB.

Return Value

Name Type Description
status int32 Returns the status code of this operation. The status code either indicates success or describes an error or warning condition. Examine the status code from each call to an RFmx function to determine if an error has occurred.

To obtain a text description of the status code and additional information about the error condition, call the RFmxWCDMA_GetError function.

The general meaning of the status code is as follows:

Value Meaning
0 Success
Positive Values Warnings
Negative Values Errors
