digital radio transmitter or receiver. A signal sent by an ideal transmitter or received by a receiver would have all constellation points precisely at the ideal locations, however various
Error Vector Magnitude Tutorial
imperfections in the implementation (such as carrier leakage, low image rejection ratio, phase error vector magnitude calculator noise etc.) cause the actual constellation points to deviate from the ideal locations. Informally, EVM is a measure of error vector magnitude matlab how far the points are from the ideal locations. Noise, distortion, spurious signals, and phase noise all degrade EVM, and therefore EVM provides a comprehensive measure of the quality of the radio

receiver or transmitter for use in digital communications. Transmitter EVM can be measured by specialized equipment, which demodulates the received signal in a similar way to how a real radio demodulator does it. One of the stages in a typical phase-shift keying demodulation process produces a stream of I-Q points which can be used as a reasonably reliable estimate for the ideal transmitted signal

in EVM calculation. Contents 1 Definition 2 Dynamic EVM 3 See also 4 References Definition[edit] Constellation diagram and EVM An error vector is a vector in the I-Q plane between the ideal constellation point and the point received by the receiver. In other words, it is the difference between actual received symbols and ideal symbols. The average power of the error vector, normalized to signal power, is the EVM. For the percentage format, root mean square (RMS) average is used. The error vector magnitude is equal to the ratio of the power of the error vector to the root mean square (RMS) power of the reference. It is defined in dB as: E V M ( d B ) = 10 log 10 ( P e r r o r P r e f e r e n c e ) {\displaystyle \mathrm {EVM(dB)} =10\log _{10}\left({P_{\mathrm {error} } \over P_{\mathrm {reference} }}\right)} where Perror is the RMS power of the error vector. For single carrier modulations, Preference is, by convention, the power of the outermost (highest power) point in the reference signal constellation. More recently, for multi-carrier modulations,

These parameters are dynamic and change based upon which data source is https://awrcorp.com/download/faq/english/docs/VSS_Measurements/evm.htm selected. See Section1.3.3 in the VSS Modeling Guide for details. Result This measurement returns unitless real values representing the computed EVM. The values are, with the exception of the "Absolute Error" EVM computation, expressed as percentages. You can display the EVM values in dB by selecting the dB check box in the Add/Modify Measurement dialog box. The x-axis is scrollable simulation time. The width of the x-axis is determined by the Time Span and Units settings. Graph Type This measurement can be displayed on a rectangular graph or tabular grid. Computational Details Error Vector Magnitude computations are performed by first computing an error vector E that is the difference between the measured and reference signal. When attempting to measure modulation accuracy, the error vector is then typically sampled on the symbol boundaries for a block of symbols, and a metric is computed from those values. The metrics from several blocks may then be averaged. Alternatively, you may want a simple time-domain waveform display of the error vector's magnitude. There are numerous definitions for the EVM metric. The EVM measurement supports the following EVM Metric options: %RMS, SMax: The ratio of the ro

See http://www.designers-guide.org/Forum/YaBB.pl?num=1129102926/0#0It is difficult and not so helpful to relate IP3 to EVM analyticallysince EVM is affected by not only AM/AM(IP3) but also AM/PM... etc.I think you should build system model to survey various effects.But this is dependent on your availability of EDA tools.I use Agilent ADS Ptolemy and WTB in both ADS_Native and RFDE for this purpose.http://eesof.tm.agilent.com/pdf/wlan.pdfIf you can prepare UWB or 802.11a signal and measurement for Cadence Environment,you can do same system design study also in Cadence Environment.For this purpose in Cadence Environemt, modeling candidates for signal and measurements are Verilog-AMS, MATLAB, SPW etc. in AMS Designer.If you will do only simple system characteristics such as ACPR and EVM, Spectre with Verilog-A might be helpful.But for full system characteristic study, I think it is very difficult and laborious to bulid models using only Verilog-A.See Cadence RF Design Methodology Kithttp://www.cadence.com/products/kits/RF_Design/index.aspx Back to top « Last Edit: Nov 12th, 2006, 6:47am by pancho_hideboo » Kita━━━━━━(゚∀゚)━━━━━━ !!!!!http://www7.plala.or.jp/ungeromeppa/flash/kita.htmlhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjIxGh55bMM&feature=related IP Logged jcpu2006 Junior Member Offline Posts: 19 Hsinchu Re: EVM simulation Reply #2 - Nov 18th, 2006, 4:48am Thank you sir:I went through them.The problem wasn't really solved.Let me re-phrase it:EVM estimation by real OFDM signal would be very time consuming.If we design a circuit, say power amplifier, with such simulation.I don't think we have much chance before the time is up.Best Regards,Chewnpu Jou Back to top IP Logged pancho_hideboo Senior Fellow Offline Posts: 1424 Real Homeless Re: EVM simulation Reply #3 - Nov 18th, 2006, 7:11am Hi.Using behavioral models, you can relate IP3 to EVM, etc.This task doesn't take much time, at most
