External
Attenuation
(dB)/Path Loss
The External Attenuation is the assumed path loss used for the setup in the
uplink and downlink directions.
When using conducted testing, a typical value for the external attenuation is
7dB, and this value depends on the cable length/quality and how many RF
combiners/splitters and used.
When using antenna couplers, the external attenuation depends on the
equipment and the UE’s antenna characteristics. We recommend using 15dB as
a good starting point.
DL Reference
Power
Downlink reference power. Lower default values when connecting directly DUT
with the S-CORE.
When setting the downlink reference power, use a value for a good radio
connection. We recommend -30dBm as a plausible value to achieve ideal radio
conditions.
UL Reference
Power
Uplink reference power.
Use the power class of the UE to help determine the UL reference power. A good
starting point would be 12 dBm.
MS IP address
IP for mobile, it should be configured in the same subnet as the S-CORE. For
more information, see the
Anite S-CORE Application Testing: System
Configuration Guide
.
DNS IP address User can configure the Application Server IP as DNS IP if the system operates in
local standalone test environment.
K value, IMSI
Information of test SIM card. Refer to the System Configuration Document.
RAND
16 bytes random number for the authentication.
MCC, MNC
Mobile Country Code and Mobile Network Code that RAT will broadcast.
