Abstract

An EVM measurement value is appropriately determined while CPE/ICI correction is taken into account. In a measurement apparatus ( 300 ), an EVM measurer ( 305 ) measures a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus. An EVM determiner ( 306 ) determines whether or not the measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where correction relating to a phase noise of the transmission apparatus is necessary in a reception apparatus. The first requirement value herein is higher than a second requirement value used in the determination of the measurement value in a case where the correction relating to the phase noise of the transmission apparatus is unnecessary in the reception apparatus.

Claims (18)

1. A measurement apparatus comprising:

measurement circuitry, which, in operation, measures a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determination circuitry, which, in operation, determines whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a frequency band to which the signal is assigned is not less than a threshold, and determines whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the frequency band to which the signal is assigned is less than the threshold.

2. A measurement apparatus comprising:

measurement circuitry, which, in operation, measures a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determination circuitry, which, in operation, determines whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a modulation order used for the signal is not less than a threshold, and determines whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the modulation order used for the signal is less than the threshold.

3. A measurement apparatus comprising:

measurement circuitry, which, in operation, measures a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determination circuitry, which, in operation, determines whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a phase tracking reference signal is contained in the signal, and determines whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the reference signal is not contained in the signal.

4. A measurement method comprising:

measuring a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determining whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a frequency band to which the signal is assigned is not less than a threshold, and determining whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the frequency band to which the signal is assigned is less than the threshold.

5. A measurement method comprising:

measuring a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determining whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a modulation order used for the signal is not less than a threshold, and determining whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the modulation order used for the signal is less than the threshold.

6. A measurement method comprising:

measuring a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus; and

determining whether or not a measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where a phase tracking reference signal is contained in the signal, and determining whether or not the measurement value is equal to or less than a second requirement value, in a case where the reference signal is not contained in the signal.
