Hello,
I've realized a RF receiver with demo boards linked together. RF recevier is able to amplify the signal, perform down-conversion with a mixer and filter with IF filter.

Now, I should verify the receiver performances. In particular, I'd like to verify if receiver realizes a good BER for some modulation schemes, such as BPSK and QPSK. I've thought to use an EGSE, such as USRP-9200, but this EGSE needs to be programmed with algorithms in order to produce BPSK and QPSK modulations.

I have some questions: what do you think about this idea? Is it best solution to realize my BER test?
Is there another solution to verify the receiver performance quickly, without the need to implement any algorithm on EGSE?

Thank you
Bye.
 

Any standard BER tester will be fine.Keysight or Rohde Schwarz manufacture such tester.The tester may apply any standard digital modulation scheme.
 

Thank you for answer
