Configuring Mobile Station Operating Parameters
The mobile station operating parameters are configured using the following call processing subsystem
commands.
For a complete list of command syntax, refer to GPIB commands CALL subsystem.
Mobile Station Operating Parameters
• MS TX Level (mobile station transmit level)
• Timing Advance
• Mobile DTX State (mobile station discontinuous transmit state)
Examples:
MS TX Level
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:TXL 15"
would set the active cell mobile station transmit power level to 15. See
page 262.
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:TXL:DCS 13"
would set the DCS cell mobile station transmit power level to 13. See
Timing Advance
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:TADV 5"
would set the timing advance of the mobile station to 5. See
Mobile DTX State
OUTPUT 714;"CALL:MS:DTX ON"
would set the discontinuous transmission state in the mobile station to on. See
page 256.
Operating Considerations
There are a number of parameters for the broadcast channel (see
on page 511) and the traffic channel (see
configured, however the test set's default parameters should allow a properly functioning mobile station to
successfully camp on the cell and make a call under most circumstances.
When Operating Mode = Active Cell, if a call is connected, changes to these parameters, including a change
to the value of the parameter's current setting, causes signaling on the downlink to automatically
initiate the change. No separate command is necessary to initiate the change. If a call is not connected,
changes to the parameter are stored for when the next call is established
The MS TX Level parameter, besides informing the mobile station what uplink power to transmit to the test
set, also updates the Expected Power parameter. See
