A practical usage of the 1641 signal definition using the Test Procedure Language (TPL) and a Carrier Language (CL)

There have been quite a few papers these past years about the IEEE 1641 Signal description. The purpose of this paper will be to go beyond the signal description and to see a practical application where those signals are used within a Test Procedure Language (TPL). The TPL is part of the Annex H of the 1641 documentation. The test will be constructed of the TPL and a Carrier Language (CL). The CL is part of the Annex G of the 1641 documentation. We will finally address some of the issues encountered during this exercise.
