摘要:
A W-CDMA base station 2 includes a probe 16 for detecting the receive signal power. The output of the probe 16 is applied to a processor 23, which, in conjunction with a comparator 25, determines the minimum receive signal level. This represents the thermal noise level and is used to determine an offset used by the base station 2 when receiving communications traffic. The determined received signal level is used to report to a radio network controller the Received Total Wideband Power.
