N4010A Option 113 Bluetooth audio
generation and analysis
1
N4010A Option 113 simplifies Bluetooth audio test
configurations and provides cost-effective functional test
of Bluetooth audio devices by performing a basic set of

1. Qualified in accordance to ITU specification G.711 [8], where 775 mVrms
(0 dBm) analog sine wave input voltage is translated to 0 dBm0 digital
CVSD transmit signal and 0 dBm0 sine wave CVSD receive signal is
output as 775 mVrms (0 dBm) analog voltage. All audio characteristics
are nominal.
2. When using N4010A audio frequencies which are multiples of 1 kHz,
harmonic distortion components may cause variations in SINAD measure-
ments. Frequency setting of 1.125 kHz is recommended for optimum
internal audio/generator measurements.
3. N4010A Bluetooth audio system performance (frequency response,
distortion/noise, etc) will also contribute to the overall measurement
performance of Option 113 audio analyzer. This also applies to the use of
external audio analyzers/generators with the N4010A.
4. For CVSD this performance only applies within the CVSD linear range.
5. CVSD linear range is defined as signals of 320 to 3200 Hz and level
< –15 dBm0 (138 mVrms analogue). Outside the CVSD linear range
(e.g. signals of frequencies above 600 Hz with levels > –15 dBm0) the
response rolls of due to the slew-rate limitations set by Bluetooth’s CVSD
algorithm parameters.
6. CVSD distortion (THD+N) at 1020 Hz and level –15 dBm0 is better than
4 percent.
