METHOD FOR MONITORING A METRIC FOR A BASE STATION'S DOWNLINK/UPLINK PATH UTILIZING A RADIO FREQUENCY SCANNER AND THE RADIO FREQUENCY SCANNER

摘要

In one embodiment, the radio frequency scanner includes a detector configured to receive signals for transmission by the base station, and to detect a presence metric for each carrier expected in the received signals. A processor is configured to determine if the base station is operating improperly based on the detected presence metrics.
