A Signal Quality Measurement Algorithm for CDMA2000 1x Reverse-link  

Kang, Sung-Jin (School of Electrical, Eelctronics & Comm. Eng,, Korea University of Tech. and Educ.)
Abstract
In this paper, we propose and implement a signal quality measurement algorithm for CDMA2000 1x terminal. The proposed algorithm is suitable to be implemented in software on a PC-based platform and extract the received signal after carrying out equalization, PN code acquisition and tracking, frequency and phase offset compensation with 4-oversampled input signal. Then, through despreading and demodulation with the extracted signal, the proposed algorithm regenerate the reference signal to be used in measurement. The signal quality is measured using this regenerated signal and the extracted signal.
