Perform a return loss sweep on the Network
Analyzer. Note the worst frequencies by
placing 2 markers each on the transmit and
receive frequencies. then print a hard copy of
the upper left quadrant.
Measured return loss of the antenna can be
calculated as:
RL (ant) = -14 dB - 2 times the antenna
cable loss
or:
Compare you results with that of the RF Path
calculated return loss of the cell site logbook
(check the RF PAth Analysis sheet).
If the results are bad compared to the log
book values connect the test cable directly to
the main transmission line and resweep.
It is possible to have a bad jumper. If the
result s are still bad then the problem could
be either with the transmission line or the
antenna.
5
Do a TDR sweep of the antenna. Print a hard
copy of the lower left quadrant.
6
Do a SWR sweep of the antenna. Print a
hardcopy of the upper quadrant. The result
should not be higher than 1.5:1
7
Do a Smith Chart of the antenna. Print a
hard copy of the lower right quadrant. The
results must be close to 50 ohms (
±
50
ohms).
8
Reconnect all the jumpers to their proper
location then inform the Control Center to
RTS the Cell Site.
If the transmit antenna is bad and the receive
antenna is good on the transmit band,
restore service by using the receive antenna
until the transmit antenna is repaired.
