Configuring TRX Receive and Transmit Modes

This describes how to configure TRX receive and transmit modes. This ensures that the configured TRX receive and transmit modes are in accordance with the actual RF cable connections and antenna cable connections of the BTS.

Preparation

Determine the TRX receive and transmit modes of a BTS based on the RF connections and antenna connections.

Procedure

  1. Right-click the target cell in the left navigation tree on the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal, choose Configure Cell Attributes from the shortcut menu. Select the cell and click Next.
  2. Click Set Cell Properties. A dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 1.

    Principles

    1

    When one DRRU/DRFU is bound with one carrier, Send Mode can be set to PBT.

    2

    When one DRRU/DRFU is bound with one carrier and "Send Receive Mode" is set to "Double Feeder (2TX + 2RX)" or "Double Feeder (2TX + 4RX)", Send Mode can be set to Diversity Transmitter.

    3

    When one DRRU/DRFU is bound with one carrier and "Send Receive Mode" is set to "Double Feeder (2TX + 4RX)", Send Mode can be set to Four Receiver.

    4

    When the receive and send modes of the TRXs on the GRRU/MRRU are set to Double Feeder (2TX + 2RX) or Double Feeder (2TX + 4RX), Send Mode should be set to Transmit Diversity or Dynamic Transmit Diversity.
    NOTE:

    When Send Mode is set to Transmitter independent or combining, the system determines whether Send Mode is set to "Transmitter independent" or "combining" according to the receive and send modes of the antenna and the binding logical TRX.

  5. Click OK to return to the upper-level menu. The configurations of the TRX receive and transmit modes are complete.
