Enabling ACM with Adaptive Transmit Power (CLI)
This feature requires:
•
ACM script
•
When working with RFU-C, requires RFU software version 2.17 or above
When planning ACM-based radio links, the radio planner attempts to apply the lowest transmit power that will
perform satisfactorily at the highest level of modulation. During fade conditions requiring a modulation drop, most
radio systems cannot increase transmit power to compensate for the signal degradation, resulting in a deeper
reduction in capacity. The PTP 820G or PTP 820F is capable of adjusting power on the fly, and optimizing the
available capacity at every modulation point.
To enable Adaptive TX Power for a radio, enter the following command in radio view:
radio[x/x]>rf adaptive-power admin enable
To disable Adaptive TX Power for a radio, enter the following command in radio view:
radio[x/x]>rf adaptive-power admin disable
To display whether Adaptive TX Power is enabled, enter the following command in radio view:
radio[x/x]>rf adaptive-power show status
The output of this command is:
radio [x/x]>rf adaptive-power show status
RF adaptive power admin status: [enable/disable]
RF adaptive power operational status: [up/down]
RF adaptive power operational status: Up
means the feature is enabled and fully functional for that
radio link. Note that the feature is configured and operates independently for each radio link.
