2 Overview

2.1 Feature Introduction

In this feature, the VSWR can be detected at fixed intervals. VSWR alarms are reported
or cleared in accordance with the VSWR alarm threshold configured on the OSS system.
The power amplifier is disabled if the VSWR reaches the over VSWR threshold.

3 Technical Description
The VSWR is read at fixed intervals, and it is compared with the configured VSWR
threshold and the over VSWR threshold. If the read VSWR value is smaller than the
VSWR threshold, an alarm is cleared. If the read VSWR value is between the VSWR
threshold and over VSWR threshold, a VSWR alarm is reported. If the VSWR is greater
than the over VSWR threshold, the over VSWR alarm is reported.

The power amplifier is disabled after an over VSWR alarm is triggered. In this case, the
VSWR is not detected anymore, so the over VSWR alarm is unrecoverable.

6 Engineering Guide

6.1 Application Scenario

This feature indicates whether the connections of an antenna, cables and connectors
meet the requirements. This feature also monitors the changes of the impact that climate
has on the antenna feeder during device operation. If the performance of an antenna
feeder degrades, the corresponding alarm indication is provided and the corresponding
measures are taken for different alarm levels to ensure the network quality and avoid
device damage.

6.2 Feature Activation Procedure

In the configuration resource tree, select Configuration Management > Modify Area >
Device > RSU > Environment Monitoring Device, and double-click Environment
Monitoring Device. The Environment Monitoring Device tab is displayed. VSWR
parameters are already configured by default. Modify the parameters as needed, see the
following figure.

6.3 Feature Validation Procedure

Test Item VSWR Detection

Prerequisites 1. The CN is operating properly.

2. The BSC is operating properly.
3. The SDR is operating properly.
4. The default cell configuration and parameters in the
BSC are correct.
5. MSs are ready.
6. The radio environment is in good condition.

Steps 1. Disconnect the feed cable between the RRU and the
antenna in the test cell.
2. Check the alarm in the OMMB.

Expected result The "Antenna over VSWR alarm" is reported in the OMMB.

6.4 Feature Deactivation Procedure

This feature cannot be disabled.
