5.3 Measuring RTWP

The Received Total Wideband Power (RTWP) is the received wideband power in an uplink

channel band measured at the UMTS Terrestrial Radio Network Access (UTRAN) access point.

This topic describes how to measure the RTWP. You can calibrate the gain of uplink RF channels

through RTWP measurement. The NodeB RTWP test has no negative effect on the services.

Prerequisite


NodeB




5-3


40/51

Context

Analyses of the RTWP measurement are as follows:

l If the NodeB is not connected to the antenna and feeder system or a matched load, the

RTWP is about 108 dBm. If the NodeB is connected to the antenna and feeder system(with TMA switched on) or a matched load, the RTWP is about 105 dBm.

l If the services are normal and the uplink load reaches 75%, the RTWP is 6 dB higher than

the RTWP when the NodeB does not carry any service.

NOTE

l When the reported RTWP is valid, the curve is normal. The vertical axis corresponds to the reported

RTWP with the unit of 0.1 dBm.

l When the reported RTWP is invalid, abnormal RTWP curves are displayed. The RTWP for the main

antenna forms a horizontal line at 112 dBm on the vertical axis. The RTWP for the diversity antenna

forms a horizontal line at 111.5 dBm on the vertical axis. The error may lie in the absent WRFU

\MRRU\RHUB\PRRU, a broken link, or a faulty channel. In this case, clear the fault first.

This describes how to monitor the output power of the NodeB. The output power test measures

the output power of the NodeB, including the typical output power and output power of each

carrier.

PrerequisiteYou have successfully logged in to the NodeB LMT or M2000.

Context

If the test is started, the system periodically reports the typical output power and power of each

carrier according to the set time interval.

The output power the NodeB is associated with the configuration and specified services. If the

pilot power and typical output power are configured, when the NodeB does not carry services,

the WRFU output power is close to the pilot power and the RRU/pRRU output power is close

to the pilot power plus 3 dB. If the output power is lower than the pilot power by a large amount,the NodeB output power must be abnormal.

l WRFU and RRU: The pilot power can be 33 dBm and the typical power can be 43 dBm.

l pRRU: Because the output power is relative small, the pilot power can be 20 dBm and the

typical power can be 27 dBm.

Procedure

Step 1 In the navigation pane of the Local Maintenance Terminal window, click the Maintenancetab.

Step 2 Double-clickRealtime Specific Monitoring > Output Power Monitoring . The OutputPower Monitoring dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 5-2.

6 Initially Activating the NodeB LicenseAbout This Chapter

This describes how to initially activate the NodeB license. When a newNodeB is configured,

the M2000 allocates the license resource to it. The task includes uploading the RAN license to

the M2000 server, distributing the NodeB license, activating the RAN license, and querying the

RAN license information.

Prerequisite

l The M2000 server is operational.

l A valid NodeB license file is obtained.

l The ESN is successfully obtained from the RAN.

Context

A license is an authorization agreement between the supplier and the operator in terms of the

functions, application scope, and service life of products. Physically, a license are/is a license

certificate and/or a license file. Operators can purchase a license which specifies the network

functions and capacity applicable to a specific phase. In this way, the investment of the operators

can be fully protected.

1. 6.1 Uploading the RAN License to the M2000 Server

This describes how to upload the RAN license file to the M2000 server through the M2000

client. The task enables the M2000 service of RAN license management to manage the

license file.

2. 6.2 Allocating the NodeB License

This describes how the M2000 allocates the NodeB license files uploaded to the M2000

server to operators.

3. 6.3 Activating the RAN License

This describes how to activate the RAN license. When an RNC license is activated, the

allocation of the license among operators is complete. When a NodeB license is activated,

the allocation of the license among NodeBs is complete.

6.1 Uploading the RAN License to the M2000 Server

This describes how to upload the RAN license file to the M2000 server through the M2000

client. The task enables the M2000 service of RAN license management to manage the license

file.

Prerequisite

l You have logged in to the M2000 client.


l The license to be uploaded is valid.

Context

l Each RAN system can upload one RNC license and multiple NodeB licenses to the M2000.

However, only one NodeB license can be activated at a time point.

l When the RAN system is shared by multiple operators, due to the varied information of

operators, the license is valid if the equipment ID in the license file is consistent with the

ESN of the primary operator's RNC.

Procedure

Step 1 Choose Software > License Management . The License Browser window is displayed.

Step 2 From the file navigation tree on the left part of the License Browser window, select an RNCnode.

Step 3 Right-click and choose Upload > From Client. The Select Uploading File-----1/1 dialog boxis displayed.

Step 4 ClickAdd. The Select dialog box is displayed.

Step 5 Select one or multiple license files to be uploaded and then clickSelect.

TIP

Hold ofShift orCtrl enables you to select multiple files.

Step 6 In the Select Uploading File-----1/1 dialog box, clickFinish. The upload progress is displayed

on the FTP Tasktab page at the lower part of the License Browser window. When the progressbar reaches 100%, you can infer that the license file is uploaded.

NOTE

If you need to stop or delete the task when the license file is being uploaded, you can select the file, right-

click and then choose Stop orDelete from the shortcut menu.
