Radiated performance of a wireless device

An apparatus for determining a radiated performance characteristic of a wireless device, comprising:

• means for determining a measured signal characteristic of a forward link only signal received by the wireless device at each one of a plurality of associated time instances, wherein the plurality of associated time instances is relative to a starting time instance;
• means for receiving a synchronization signal;
• means for setting the starting time instance in a log based on the synchronization signal, wherein the synchronization signal is a pulse signal;
• and
• means for recording the measured signal characteristics in the log on the wireless device at each associated time instance in the plurality of associated time instances.

At least one processor configured to perform the actions of:

• determining a measured signal characteristic of a forward link only signal received by a wireless device at each one of a plurality of associated time instances, wherein the plurality of associated time instances is relative to a starting time instance;
• receiving a synchronization signal;
• setting the starting time instance in a log based on the synchronization signal, wherein the synchronization signal is a pulse signal;
• and
• recording the measured signal characteristics in the log on the wireless device at each associated time instance in the plurality of associated time instances.
