noise, interfering signals, nonlinear distortion and the load of the radio. It is a component of the 802.11 IEEE standard, and has become an http://www.antenna-theory.com/definitions/evm.php industry standard measurement for cellular phones, cable television and wifi. EVM is typically http://rfmw.em.keysight.com/wireless/helpfiles/89600B/WebHelp/Subsystems/digdemod/content/digdemod_symtblerrdata_evm.htm measured in decibels (dB), and sometimes in percent. An example will make this is clear, assuming you know a bit about digital modulation techniques (QAM, QPSK, PSK, etc). Suppose our radio is transmitting via a 16-QAM constellation. It would like to send the black dots below in the I-Q error vector (In phase - Quadrature Plane) plane. However, due to our real-world (non-ideal) radio, suppose the radio actually transmits something a bit off of this point: Figure 1. Illustration of A 16-QAM Constellation. In Figure 1, we have a 16-QAM constellation, which means we encode our 1's and 0's as 16 different symbols, with 4 bits per symbol. At this instant in error vector magnitude Figure 1, suppose we are transmitting the symbol pointed to by the orange vector, or bits [0000]. In this case, we are transmitting exactly what our radio wants to transmit; simiarly this is what the receiver would expect to receive with no noise present. Now, suppose that our radio is not perfect for whatever reason. Then we won't be exactly transmitting the symbol we want to send. The difference between the desired (ideal) signal vector and the actual signal vector is the error vector, as shown in Figure 2. And the magnitude of the error vector? This is EVM. Figure 2. Illustration of The Error Vector Magnitude (EVM). Now, if you have noise in your system, this disturbs your measurements as well. However, EVM is not noise. Noise arises from some external source and can be reduced via averaging or other techniques. We'll return to what causes EVM in a minute. EVM is typically measured in dB, as in: EVM=-28 dB. This means the error vector has a magnitude that is 28 dB less than the average signal vector (or, the average ene
detected symbol location—which connects the I/Q reference-signal vector to the I/Q measured-signal vector. The following graphic shows the calculation of the EVM metric as well as a diagram showing how a single error vector is calculated. EVM is calculated from the symbol points (the instant in time when symbols are detected). The computation does not include points between symbols. Therefore Points / Symbol does not affect the value. The Syms/Errs table also shows the location of the symbol that has the largest EVMError vector magnitude (EVM): A quality metric in digital communication systems. See the EVM metric in the Error Summary Table topic in each demodulator for more information on how EVM is calculated for that modulation format.. For constellations with constant magnitude (QPSKQuadrature phase shift keying, BPSKBinary phase shift keying - A type of phase modulation using 2 distinct carrier phases to signal ones and zeros., 8PSK, etc.), the EVMs are always normalized to the constellation maximum. For constellations with multiple possible magnitudes (APSK, StarQAM, 16QAM, 32QAM, etc.), the EVMs are normalized to the EVM Normalization Reference. Shaped OQPSKOffset Quadrature Phase Shift Keying: A type of QPSK modulation that offsets the bit streams on the I and Q channels by a half bit. This reduces amplitude fluctuations and helps improve spectral efficiency. and Offset QPSK use two points-per-symbol (symbols and midpoints between symbols) to compute EVM and peak EVM due to the offset between IandQ. For Offset QPSK, when the Half Sine Filter is selected, the OQPSK reference constellation points fall on a circle with a magnitude of sqrt(2)/2, but the EVM is still expressed as a percentage of the magnitude of a QPSK symbol point (magnitude = 1).
