Full Site Test (FCC)
This test measures several aspects of radio performance on one or more radios.
Measurements are made at the Base Station TX Test Ports in the Antenna Interface
Frame, eliminating the need to take an entire antenna face down during testing.
Before the test can run, you must to create a frequency plan containing information
about each radio to be tested (see “Defining a Frequency Plan” on page 43). Because the
Test Software uses the frequency plan to control automatically all of the radios under
test, this test cannot be performed using manual control of the Base Station. If you must
test a radio using manual control, use the “Single Radio Test” on page 68.
The measurements made on each radio depends on its type: AMPS or AMPS Setup. The
radio type is specified in the frequency plan.
The following measurements are made on all radios:
• TX Frequency Error
• TX Power (at a specific power amplifier step)
• TX Peak (+) Data Deviation
• TX Peak (-) Data Deviation
The following additional measurements are only made on an AMPS radio (not AMPS
Setup):
• TX RMS Residual FM
• TX Average Peak Deviation @
−
16 dBm
• TX Distortion @
−
16 dBm
• TX Peak (+) Deviation @ 0 dBm
•TX Peak (
−
) Deviation @ 0 dBm
• TX SAT Average Peak Deviation @ 0 Hz
• TX SAT Frequency Error @ 0 Hz
