Summary
Analysis procedure
1 Check Alarm
1.1 Check the hardware alarm.
Like RF Module Rx Branch RTWP Difference Too High Alarm etc.
1.2 Check whether VSWR alarm exists.
Command: DSP VSWR
If have alarm or high VSWR (more then 11), first escalate to BSS team, then assistant them
to check whether it is hardware problem or interference.

If frequency scanning tool available (like frequency analyzer), we can use tool to
scan the interference.
The method to check the interference by scanning tool:
Switch off the transmit power of the interference sector. Make the test antenna of the
tool toward the direction of the antenna of the NodeB (follow the same orientation, same
down tilt, also the same attitude) and scan the interference. By this method we can check
whether external interference exists or not.
Common methods
NodeB have two sets of RTWP, primary and secondary RTWP; if only one set of
RTWP is abnormal but the other set is OK. We can swap the primary feeder with
the secondary feeder to check whether high RTWP swap or not.
If two sectors are very near but only one sector experience high RTWP and the
other sector is OK. We can swap the feeder of these two sectors at the antenna side

to check whether high RTWP will swap from one sector to the other.
By these swap actions, we can analyze the interference feature and find the interference
source.
