FETCh:GBERror:CRC?

Function

GSM TA

This command is not applicable to GSM.

GPRS TA

This query returns the CRC (Frame Check Sequence) Error Count found during the last GBER measurement. Each block that fails its CRC will cause the CRC Error Count result to increment.

The CRC Error Count affects the BLER measurement results differently depending on the GBER Bad Block Handling setting. For more information on the GBER Bad Block Handling setting see SETup:GBERror:BBLocks .

FETCh:GBERror:DELay?

Function

GSM TA

This command is not applicable to GSM.

GPRS TA

This query returns the block delay the test set used during the last bit error measurement.

This value can be determined automatically by the test set, or you can set it manually. See SETup:GBERror:MANual:DELay and SETup:GBERror:LDControl:AUTO for setting this value manually.

Refer also to the GPRS Bit Error Measurement for a description of block delay and how it is used in the bit error measurement.
