--------------------------------------------------- NORTEL NETWORKS GSM/EDGE ERROR INSERTION DEVICE (C) 2000, all rights reserved Nortel Networks has provided this executable module for the third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). The use of this program is strictly restricted to the AMR wideband selection phase testing within the TSG SA WG4 of 3GPP. --------------------------------------------------- Usage: <-in input_file> <-out output_file> [-f format] [-ep errorPatternFile] [-tch EPType] [-o offset] With: input file: coded bitstream using 16 bits words (0x0000, 0x007F or 0x0081; TCH only bursts including SB) output file: softbits stream using 16 bits words ([0x0081;0x007F] TCH only bursts including SB) formats of the input/output files (default is LSB first : big endian) b = big endian (LSB first) l = little endian (MSB first) Error Patterns : files using Nortel Networks EDGE extended format or AEG format with TCH only bursts. It contains a soft error stream using bytes ([0x81;0x7F]). EPType: gmsk = GMSK modulation 8psk = 8PSK modulation offset : in number of TCH time slots Tested platforms: MSDOS Windows 95 UNIX SUN-OS Nortel Networks GSM/EDGE AEG extended error partterns: Header : 512 bytes Data : GMSK : 512 bytes blocks containing 4*114 = 456 soft errors 8PSK : 1392 bytes blocks containing 4*342 = 1368 soft errors Soft errors are only applied onto TCH bursts without SB.
