CF I2A 57

RX PATH IMBALANCE
This fault occurs together with a pinpointed antenna, if
the difference in signal strength between two antennas
in the same antenna system exceeds the limits defined using
the OMT function Define RX Path Imbalance Parameters.
If the class 1 limit is exceeded, the related fault
AO TX I1B:35 is also raised and the TX will be disabled.
action
The supervision of this fault is based on measurements over
a long time duration, hence the fault does not cease as soon
as the fault condition is corrected. The RX imbalance monitor
must therefore be used to verify the correction of the fault
condition.
When the fault condition has been corrected, reset the TRU to
cause the fault to terminate immediately.
Observe, If the fault condition was not corrected, the fault
will be reported again when at least the minimum number of
samples has been collected. The minimum number of samples is
defined by the Define RX Path Imbalance Parameters function
in the OMT.
To find and correct the fault condition:
- Check the defined RX path invariance limits using the
Define RX Path Imbalance Parameters function in the OMT
for the faulty antenna system.
- Check the TX cables/feeders, cable connections inside
and outside the cabinet and antennas, for example with
Antenna System SWR tests. For information about how to perform
a SWR test see Verifying System Antennas or Antenna System Tests
in the CPI for the relevant RBS.
