Operating Instructions
2.1 Link Balance Equations: UL/DL Path balance difference = UL path loss - DL path loss = (MS real transmit power-UL Rx_Lev) - (BTS cabinet output power-DL Rx_Lev). BTS cabinet output power=TRX power-static power class*2 + Power fine tuning Combiner loss - DL dynamic PC level*2 + dynamic PBT gain

2.2

Counters used for path-balance Judgment

The below counters define the balance status of the TRX into 11 levels and the balance should be around level 6 The levels below level 6 indicates the status of the UL The levels above level 6 indicates the status of the DL Level 1 Indicates that the UL > DL by 15 Level 1 Indicates that the DL > UL by 15

Judgment Criteria

The criteria used to judge if the TRX is Balance or not is as following: 1- `Shape of the graph should be centered on Level 6 2- Sum of Levels (1 + 2) should be Less Than 20 % from the total value of Levels 1 to 11 (around the 20 %) 3- Sum of Levels (10 + 11) should be Less Than 25 % from the total value of Levels 1 to 11 (around the 25 %)

2.4

Normal Trend for Path-Balance

The Normal Trend of the balance means that the measurement should be around level 6 as shown below

Weak DL Trend for Path-Balance

Weak DL means that the measurement of the UL Level counters is higher than the DL counters (Levels 1+2 is Higher than 20 % from the total Measurement)

Weak UL Trend for Path-Balance

Weak DL means that the measurement of the DL Level counters is higher than the UL counters (Levels 10+11 is Higher than 25 % from the total Measurement)

Misleading Case for Path-Balance

In the below case the measurement of Levels 10+11 is 22% which is good and accepted but from the TRX chart we can see that the TRX suffers from Weak-UL status as shown below

So the conclusion from this case is that: 1- Percentage is just an indication to determine the worst cases 2- The judgment must be done for case by case specially for the TRXs with percentage around 20% for both UL/DL indicators (Levels 1+2 or Level 10+11)
