get_value()float[source]
# SCPI: CONFigure:GSM:SIGNaling<Instance>:RFSettings:LEVel:BCCH
value: float = driver.configure.rfSettings.level.bcch.get_value()
Defines the absolute level of the broadcast control channel (BCCH) .

INTRO_CMD_HELP: The BCCH level depends on the selected scenario.

  • Setting the BCCH level is only allowed for scenario ‘BCCH and TCH/PDCH’. The allowed range can be calculated as follows: Range (Level) = Range (Output Power) - External Attenuation - Insertion Loss + (Baseband Level + 15 dB) Range (Output Power) = -130 dBm to 0 dBm (RFx COM) or -120 dBm to 13 dBm (RFx OUT) ; please also notice the ranges quoted in the data sheet. Please notice the ranges of output power quoted in the data sheet. Insertion Loss is only relevant for internal fading, (Baseband Level + 15 dB) only for external fading.

  • For other scenarios, the BCCH level equals the TCH/PDCH ‘DL Reference Level’ with the lower level limit of -95 dBm.
