Fields

Band Class

The Band Class field is displayed on the CDMA CALL CONTROL screen when the "Protocol" field on page 346 is set to TIA/EIA-95B and the "RF Chan Std" field on page 365 is set to USER-DEF. This field allows entry of the BAND_CLASS parameter.

The range of values that can be entered in this field is 0 to 4.

GPIB Example

“DISP CCNT;CDMA:CELL:BCL 0“

sets the BAND_CLASS parameter to 0.

Operating Considerations

The value entered in the Band Class field affects Test Set operation only when the "Protocol" field on page 346 is set to TIA/EIA-95B and the "RF Chan Std" field on page 365 is set to USER-DEF.

The BAND_CLASS parameter, which affects forward channel messages, is a function of Protocol and RF Chan Std field settings.

When the RF Chan Std field is set to USER-DEF (user defined) the user is expected to select one of the five available values.

If BAND_CLASS 0, 2, or 3 is selected:

•The "Nom Pwr Ext" field on page 312 field is removed from the CDMA CELL SITE CONFIGURATION screen, and

•The offset power used to calculate "Ideal Mobile Power" field on page 273 is set to -73, and

•The Neighbor List Message is sent on the Paging channel (not the Extended Neighbor List Message), and

•The BASE_CLASS field in the System Parameters message on the Paging channel is set to 0 (Public Macrocellular System)

If BAND_CLASS 1 or 4 is selected:

•The "Nom Pwr Ext" field on page 312 field is displayed on the CDMA CELL SITE CONFIGURATION screen, and

•The offset power used to calculate "Ideal Mobile Power" field on page 273 is set to -76, and

•The Extended Neighbor List Message is sent on the Paging channel (not the Neighbor List Message), and

•the BASE_CLASS field in the System Parameters message on the Paging channel is set to 1 (Public PCS System)
