Caution
ePMP supports Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC) where the SMs are instructed by
the AP to adjust their Tx power in order for the SM’s signal (UL RSSI) to arrive at the AP at a
predetermined RSSI level (configurable on the AP under Configuration->Radio->Power
Control->Subscriber Module Target Receive Level). This feature is beneficial to keep the
overall noise floor in the sector to an acceptable level and is critical for deploying a GPS
Synchronized system. However, the feature negates the purpose of eAlign measurements on
the AP since, during the alignment, the SM may constantly change its Tx power. It is
recommended to turn off ATPC and set the SM’s Tx power to maximum allowable power
during alignment.
While aligning the link using eAlign, please follow these steps:
Procedure:
1
On the SM, set Configuration->Radio->Power Control->Tx Power Manual Limit to Max Tx
Output Power
2
Set Configuration->Radio->Power Control->Transmitter Output Power to 30 dBm (or
maximum value allowed by regulations).
