Measurement Filter
Sets the reception filter. The Filter Parameter Setting dialog box shows the basic filter settings on the left and the 2nd filter on the right. Displayed characteristics are combined characteristics of 2 filters.
Measurement filter is used to filter the received signal just before demodulation. Some systems split the pulse-shaping filter between the transmitter and receiver side (e.g. Root Nyquist at transmitter and Root Nyquist at receiver) and in this case the filter at the receiver side is the measurement filter. The Filter settings are described in Table: Filter Settings.

Measurement Filter
Selected modulation type settings for the first filter list is listed in Table: Measurement Filter Settings.
Selected modulation type settings for the second filter list is listed in Table: Settings of 2nd Measurement Filter.
For more on Filter and Second Filter, see Filter and Second Filter.
Reference Filter
Settings are described in Reference Filter.
For more on Filter and Second Filter, see Filter and Second Filter.
Roll Off / BT
Sets the filter roll off ratio
(Root Nyquist/Nyquist/ARIB STD-T98) or bandwidth time product. This is applied when the Measurement Filter or Reference Filter setting is set to Root Nyquist, Nyquist, ARIB STD-T98, Gaussian or Inverse Gaussian.
First Filter Range: 0.03 to 1.00
Second Filter Range: 0.030 to 1.000
User Defined Filter
Measurement Edit
This selects the definition file for the filter used as the Measurement Filter. If no file is specified, the setting is Root Nyquist.
Reference Edit
This selects the definition file for the filter that removes the adjacent waves. If no file is specified, it is regarded that Multicarrier Filter is set to None. Settings of Reference Filter are described in Table: Settings of Reference Filter.
Measurement Filter Settings
Availability of the basic measurement filter settings are shown in Table: Measurement Filter Settings and the 2nd filter setting in Table: Settings of 2nd Measurement Filter.

Reference Filter
Sets the filter used for the reference signal. The Filter Parameter Setting dialog box shows the filter on the left and the 2nd filter on the right. Displayed characteristics are combined characteristics of 2 filters. Reference filter is used to filter the reference (no error) signal. It is the total filtering used in the system (transmitter filter plus receiver filter). Availability of the reference filter type settings are shown in Table: Settings of Reference Filter.

User Defined Filter
When User Defined is set at Measurement Filter or Reference Filter, any user filter can be used. For details on user filter and definition filter, refer to Filter Definition Settings.
Filter and Second Filter
For both Measurement Filter and Reference Filter, normally select the type of Filter only and select None for 2nd Filter. Then, the characteristics of Measurement Filter and Reference Filter shall be those set in the Filter Parameter Setting dialog box. If other than None is selected for both Filter and 2nd Filter, then the characteristics of Measurement Filter and Reference Filter are combined characteristics of Filter and 2nd Filter.
