9-6 Performing tests using a DCSM
411-2051-500 Draft 00.01 November 1999
Measuring Forward Control Channel RF power
The DCSM can be directed to take a Power measurement on the currently
active CCH. Raw RSSI readings are returned from the DCSM and are
translated into dBm at the CM. Procedure 9-3 is used to test the forward
power.
Measuring Reverse Control Channel power
For this test the DCSM is directed to terminate a call. The MTX then directs
the CCH to measure the TX power of the DCSMs page response (RECC or
RACH). The readings are in a raw format and are translated into dBm at the
CM. Procedure 9-4 is used to test the reverse power.
