The following figure is an example of the single-code measurements. This is the Code Power vs. Slot
overview looking at 1 Frame (15 slots). The optional Code Domain Power graph shows that the chosen
code (#65 at spreading factor 256) is an active code since it is highlighted in blue. Two additional codes at
the left are the pilot signal (P-CPICH) and the control channels (SCH & P-CCPCH), which is necessary
for automatic measurements.
The top graph shows that the power level of this code varies with time. This is a simple example where
the power varies in linear 5 dB steps from 0 dB (relative to the maximum) to –40 dB. Note that the
markers read out either relative to the total power (shown here) or in absolute values (in dBm).
Note that the 2 key measurements of EVM (for this code) and Carrier Frequency Offset are shown at the
top of the graph and that the scramble code is shown at the top of the CDP overview.
Note also that the CDP overview shows the power for the selected slot (in the Setup dialog); the default
for this is slot #1, so the CDP for the selected code in the CDP overview is the same as the power in slot
#1 of the upper graph.
