 Characteristics 2/5
Monitor method for Feeder&antenna problem troubleshooting
1,VSWR Test STR VSWRTEST
Belong to Offline high- precision VSWR test, result only for RRU port, VSWR test will used before Cell was
acted, to check hardware install quality; when VSWR alarm appeared, VSWR test will be used to confirm it.
Comparing with on-line VSWR test, this VSWR test is a off-line test ,was less affected by radio signal.

2,Offline antenna interfere detect test STR RFTEST

By control of RRU TX power, observe whether RTWP was obviously changed during test ,to judge whether
intermodulation interference was exist. Only RRU port is a TX&RX port, it can test whether intermodulation
interference was exist; if it s a TX or RX port only, it is no need and can not observe whether a intermodulation
interference exist, ENODEB support 1 intermodulation interference test at one time .

 Characteristics 3/5
Monitor methods for radio interference detection
1, uplink broadband scanning
We can observe interference around ENODEB by uplink broadband scanning, including radio
interference and interference in ENODEB. It scanning a continues broadband by RRU or RFU,
calculate RX signal intensity and report it. Uplink broadband scanning mainly used for real time
scanning of RTWP, to judge whether RSSI/RTWP is abnormal.
Comparing with Spectrum Detection, uplink broadband scanning is much more quickly ,and can
observe RX power of every RB, but it can not scan broadband that higher.

Monitor methods for radio interference detection
2, Spectrum Detection -High precision Spectrum Detection
It is a on-line scanning, to observe interference for ENODEB frequency on using and a little brink
frequency. This function mainly used for remote interference scanning.
Comparing with broad band on-line frequency scan and broad band off-line frequency scan, High
precision Spectrum Detection has a high differentiate rate and quickly speed of scanning, but lower
bandwidth.

Monitor methods for radio interference detection
3, Spectrum Detection - broad band on-line frequency scan
Can scan a certain continuous band, Comparing with High precision Spectrum Detection, broad band on-line
frequency scan has a lower differentiate rate and quickly speed of scanning, but higher bandwidth.

4, Spectrum Detection - broad band off-line frequency scan

It is a off-line scan, need to deactivate cell. It can scan RRUs whole bandwidth. Comparing with broad band on-
line frequency scan and High precision Spectrum Detection, broad band off-line frequency scan works slowly, but
support a wider bandwidth.

Values
1, Im pro ve test efficiency &R educe service cost.
Decrease the number of local test of VSWR;
No need for local interference test;
Use MML commands, reduce use rate of sitemaster, save the expense of Sitemaster and labor.

2, R educe request o f test too ls

Reduce use rate of Sitemaster and other tools.
Remote test, no need ocal troubleshooting.
