1 Introduction
1.1 Feature Overview
The R&S TSME ultra compact drive test scanner is a high-power platform for optimiz-
ing all conventional mobile radio networks. A highly sensitive 20 MHz front end for any
input frequencies from 350 MHz to 4400 MHz, and an FPGA-based software-defined
architecture offer unsurpassed performance while providing maximum flexibility and
future-proofness.
●User-definable input frequency range from 350 MHz to 4400 MHz
●An RF and signal processing path with a bandwidth of 20 MHz
●Measurements on various mobile communication standards
●Support of automatic channel detection
●Support of MIMO measurement setups
●Support of position estimation of base stations together with R&S ROMES software
(R&S ROMES option ROMES4LOC)
●Parallel measurements in GSM, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO,
WiMAXTM, LTE and TETRA networks
●ViCom programming interface for customer-specific applications
●Future-proof software-defined architecture
●Embedded high sensitivity GPS receiver
1.2 Measurement Setup
The R&S TSME is not a stand-alone drive test scanner; it requires a host PC connec-
ted via LAN and some additional equipment in order to perform measurements.
Measurement Setup

Introduction
R&S®TSME
6User Manual 1514.6542.02 ─ 10
Figure 1-1: Typical measurement setup with the R&S
TSME
Important requirements for host PC
In order to control and perform measurements with the R&S TSME, a host PC or note-
book with LAN interface is required (not included in the package), with the following
minimum configuration:
●Intel Quad-Core i7
●4 GB Memory
●Windows 7
●Dedicated Gbit LAN adapter with Jumbo Frames (9 kB) and Flow Control
enabled
It is important for the host PC to have its own dedicated LAN adapter for the connec-
tion to one or more R&S TSMEs only, and is not integrated in a regular office network.
The host PC must have a fixed IP address with which it connects to the R&S TSME.
There are different possibilities for the host PC to control the R&S TSME:
●Using the drive test software platform R&S ROMES or R&S NESTOR (not part of
this package!)
●Using the R&S ViCom programming interface package and integrating the
R&S TSME as an OEM product into a customer-specific software application
The host PC is required for the following tasks:
●Obtaining hardware and firmware information on the R&S TSME (via the
R&S TSME Device Manager, see Chapter 4.2, "Obtaining Device Information",
on page 43)

●Configuring the R&S TSME (via the R&S TSME Device Manager, see Chapter 4.1,
"The R&S TSME Device Manager", on page 41)
●Sending the measurement commands (via the drive test software), thus controlling
and performing the actual measurement
●Updating the R&S TSME firmware when required (see "Automatic firmware
updates" on page 53)
In addition to the host PC, the following further equipment is required to perform mea-
surements with the R&S TSME:
For an overview of the package contents for the R&S TSME refer to "Accessory list"
on page 12 and to the Release Notes.

1.3 The R&S TSME Option Concept
The R&S TSME scanner consists of the R&S TSME hardware as well as a set of
(specified) technology and band options when it comes from the factory.
1.3.1 Technology Options
Technology options allow for the R&S TSME to scan the input based on a specific
technology, for example, LTE. All technology options can be installed on the same
instrument; the R&S TSME can measure various technologies simultaneously.
Following technology options are available (for current availabilities see http://
www2.rohde-schwarz.com/product/TSME.html):
