Apparatus and method for measuring the radio signal (RF) transmission statistics of a communication channel. The apparatus is arranged to receive and process a wide bandwidth signal from which signal power is measured and from which fading or other such transmission problems can be measured for the wide bandwidth. In parallel with the wide bandwidth receiver there is a narrow bandwidth receiver arranged to receive the same RF signal but to process only a single tone or narrow bandwidth portion of the RF signal. From this narrow bandwidth processing the narrow bandwidth transmission statistical characteristics of the RF transmission channel can be measured simultaneously with the wide bandwidth statistical characteristics. The outputs of the spectrum analyzer are digitized and fed to a computer for storage and for other analysis.

A computing system (36) provides a network designer with a mechanism for modeling migration, or a shift, of call traffic from a first server (26) operating using a first technology type to a second server (28) operating using a second technology type. The system (36) executes a traffic map generation process (56) for generating a first traffic map (60) responsive to a radio coverage area (30) and a call traffic load (84) for the first server (26), and for generating a second traffic map (62) responsive to a radio coverage area (32) and call traffic load (90) for the second server (28). The system (36) executes a call traffic migration modeling process (58) to adapt the second traffic map (62) to include a proportion (100) of the first call traffic load (84) to be shifted from the first server (26) to the second server (28).

A system (200) provides a network designer with a mechanism by which to quickly estimate the performance of a code division multiple access wireless communication network. The system (200) allows the designer to enter a group of network and sector parameters. Based on these parameters, the user can choose one of three methods depending on a desire for speed, accuracy, and generality of result. The system (200) determines the pilot strength and interference for each location in the network. The system (200) determines pilot strength to interference values for each location. The system (200) estimates the performance of the communication network using these determined values and accounting for user-defined network parameters.
摘要:
Apparatus for optical transmission of first and second digital channels. Each digital channel has first and second signal levels. The appparatus has a tunable laser for emitting an optical output at optical frequencies corresponding to current levels. Current responsive to the signal levels of the two channels provides current levels to cause the laser to emit a first optical frequency when the first channel has a second signal level and the second channel has a second signal level, a second optical frequency when the first channel has a first signal level and the second channel has a second signal level, a third optical frequency when the first channel has a first signal level and the second channel has a first signal level, and a fourth optical frequency when the first channel has a second signal level and the second channel has a first signal level. An optical transmission medium is coupled to the output of the laser. A tunable optical filter is coupled to the optical transmission medium. The filter is tuned to pass a pair of adjacent optical frequencies corresponding to a signal level on a selected channel. A baseband detector at the output of the optical filter for provides a mark when either of the pair of optical frequencies passes through the optical filter. The mark is indicative of a signal level on the selected channel.
摘要:
A system increases the capacity of a CDMA network having a plurality of cell sites. The system defines a pool of frequencies available for assignment, and assigns one of the available frequencies to each of the cell sites so as to minimize the number of neighboring cell sites assigned a same one of the available frequencies. By deploying different frequencies in the cell sites, the amount of interference caused by neighboring cell sites reduces. As a result, the capacity of each of the cell sites operating at a single frequency can be increased, so long as there remains sufficient power to reach the mobile units operating within the cell site. The system attains maximum benefits when the cell sites are located close together and the propagation exponent is low (for example, 10-20 dB/decade).

A system (36) provides a network designer with a mechanism for analyzing the performance of a code division multiple access wireless network (20). The system (36) includes executable code in the form of a probable server identification module (52), a forward link initial estimation module (54), a reverse link initial estimation module (56), a forward link analysis module (58), and a reverse link analysis (60). The modular architecture of the modules (52, 54, 56, 58, and 60) are appropriately configured and interconnected in order to form a network performance analysis process (62) that accurately analyzes both the reverse link performance and the forward link performance of the network (20).
摘要:
An interference analyzing system and method analyze interference in a dual mode system having a digital network overlaid on an analog network. The digital network includes portable units operating within digital cell sites; whereas, the analog network includes mobile units operating within analog cell sites. The interference analyzing system measures the amount of interference caused by and to the portable units, and the amount of interference caused by and to the digital cell sites. The system individually compares these interference amounts to a predetermined threshold. If either of the interference amounts exceeds the predetermined threshold, the system selects one of the analog cell sites for spectrum clearing and determines the amount of spectrum to be cleared from the selected analog cell site.
