TX Code Domain Power Acceptance Test

Code Domain Power Test
This test verifies the Code Domain Power/Noise of each BBX2 carrier
keyed up at a specific frequency per the current CDF file assignment.
All tests are performed using the external calibrated test set controlled by
the same command. All measurements are via the appropriate TX OUT
(BTS/RFDS) connector.
For each sector/antenna under test, the Pilot Gain is set to 262 and all
MCC channel elements under test are configured to generate Orthogonal
Channel Noise Source (OCNS) on different odd Walsh codes, and be
assigned a full–rate gain of 81. The maximum number of MCC/CEs to
be tested an any one time is 32 (32 odd Walsh codes). If more than 32
CEs exist, then multiple sets of measurements are made, so all channel
elements are verified on all sectors.
BBX2 power output is set to 40 dBm as measured at the TX OUT
connector (on either the BTS or RFDS directional coupler).
You verify the code domain power levels, which have been set for all
ODD numbered Walsh channels, using the OCNS command. This is
done by verifying that Pilot Power (dBm) minus OCNS Power (dBm) is
equal to
10.2 + 2 dB and that the noise floor of all “OFF” Walsh channels
measures
< –27 dB (with respect to total CDMA channel power).
The BBX2 then de-keys and, if selected, the MCC is re-configured to
assign the applicable redundant BBX2 to the current TX antenna path
under test. The test is then repeated. Upon completion of the test, OCNS
is disabled on the specified MCC/CE.
