PIM-P Analyzers were developed to measure and analyze PIM data of RF-components,
cables, or complete RF systems.
Operation Modes for Different Applications: Field Mode / Analyzer Mode
Depending on the application, the users’ requirements will be different. The main task
at a base station site is to quickly analyze the RF Path, and document the measurements. If
unacceptable PIM levels are detected the PIM-P can be used to identify and pin-point
problematic components. When testing base stations,
typically the frequency and power settings of the test equipment are site specific. Focus
lies on quick measurement and documentation of data. PIM-P Analyzers provide this easy
to use functionality in the
Field Mode . All base station test parameters can be stored in the
PIM-P Analyzer, including feeder and sector information. By selecting the base station, the
user is ready to go. For preventive maintenance it can be very helpful to compare actual
with historical data, which the PIM-P offers this as well. Measurements can be stored in
the system as .log files. Whenever data are logged, the log field stores measurements, test
system settings, and even complete information of the base station. The operator can view
the historical data of a base station at any time and analyze if readings have changed
compared to historical measurements.
