Fetches I/Q impairments.

Syntax

Namespace: NationalInstruments.RFmx.DemodMX

public int FetchIQImpairments(string selectorString, double timeout, out double meanIQGainImbalance, out double meanQuadratureSkew, out double meanIQOriginOffset)

Remarks

This method maps to the RFmxDemod_DDemodFetchIQImpairments() function in C.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
selectorStringstring

Specifies the result name. Example: "", "result::r1". You can use the BuildResultString(string) method to build the selectorString.

timeoutdouble

Specifies the time, in seconds, for which the method waits for the measurement to complete. A value of -1 specifies that the method waits until the measurement is complete.

meanIQGainImbalanceout double

Upon return, contains the measured ratio of I gain to Q gain, in dB.

meanQuadratureSkewout double

Upon return, contains a measure of I and Q components in the signal that are not perfectly orthogonal.

meanIQOriginOffsetout double

Upon return, contains the offset, in dB, from the ideal location of the constellation origin.

Returns

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