RFN_3.1 Beta

 

The iFTA tool shall be used in “Single Cell” mode and idle RSSI and SQE 
values shall be recorded for control channel for at least one hour per sector, 
while the mobile remains fixed. 

A second test per sector shall be performed in “Single Cell” mode while 
walking the facility for approximately 15 minutes. 

2  SQE and RSSI Variation Test for all 4 iDEN Channels 

In this test, the iFTA shall be placed in “Monitor Many” mode and idle RSSI 
and SQE values shall be recorded for all iDEN channels for at least one hour 
per sector while the mobile remains fixed. 

These tests shall be conducted over a period of 3 days and minimally 3 times in 
a 24-hour period. 

The following test is to determine the RFS’ ability to recover from various iSC-3 
conditions. 

1  Loss of T1 

While the RFS is operating, the T1 connection to the iSC-3 will be 
disconnected for one minute and then reconnected. System recovery will be 
monitored and validated by placing a successful call on each sector. 

2  iSC-3 Power Loss 

While the RFS is operating, the iSC-3 shall be power cycled and system 
recovery will be monitored and validated by placing a successful call on each 
sector. 

3  Loss of GPS 

While the RFS is operating, the GPS connection to the iSC-3 will be 
disconnected until all Satellites are lost and then reconnected. System 
recovery will be monitored and validated by placing a successful call on each 
sector. 

4  New data-fill download 

System recovery will be verified by pushing a new data-fill download to the 
iSC-3. 

The Packet Data stability and throughput to the Internet will be verified. A 
tethered Packet Data connection will be set up on a laptop and speed tested by 
using the 

www.bandwidthplace.com

 website. This continuous download of data 

stream will validate system stability and help to quantify user experience of 
Packet Data over the RadioFrame System.
