11.4 Preparing for Wireless Traffic Generation
For wireless traffic generation, the UWB Exerciser uses the UWB radio on the
UWB Exerciser plug-in. The plug-in module must be inserted into the left-side slot of the
CATC 5K platform.
There are two options for UWB traffic generation:
•
Wireless RF traffic generation
• Wired RF traffic generation
Wireless Traffic Generation
Using the provided RF antenna, the Exerciser can capture over-the-air wireless traffic.
Perform the following steps:
1. Make sure the antenna provided with the UWBTracer /Trainer analyzer is tightly connected to
the connector marked ANT.
Note: To meet FCC Part B requirements, UWBTrainer is equipped with reverse polarity radio
and antenna connectors. This configuration does not affect RF behavior in any way but does
require that a customer-supplied antenna is configured with reverse polarity connectors.
2. Position the UWBTracer/Trainer system facing the devices under test (at least 10 inches
apart).
Wired Traffic Generation
You can use coaxial cabling to connect the wireless device directly to the UWBTrainer
generator, as illustrated below. Because antennas are not used, external interference
should not affect the recording.
