Screens Where Field is Present

CDMA MOBILE REPORTED PILOT STRENGTH

Expected T_Drop

This field is displayed only when TIS/EIA-95B is selected in the "Protocol" field on page 346. Refer to ANSI/TIA/EIA-95-B, 6.6.6.2.6, Set Maintenance, for additional information.

This field displays an integer value representing an expected power level threshold. The purpose of this calculation is to determine the approximate power level threshold that will cause the mobile station to start its drop timer.

GPIB Example

“CDMA:MOBile:PARM:ETDRop?“

queries the Expected T_Drop value calculated by the Test Set.

Operating Considerations

If there is a call connected with the Soft Handoff field On and the status of both pilot signals is Active, the mobile station should report To Drop (in the Status field) if one of the active pilot’s signal strength has decreased to less than Expected T_Drop and a pilot strength message was sent.

The value displayed in this field is calculated from the current T_Drop field and, if "Soft Slope" field on page 400 is not 0, the "Drop Intcpt" field on page 237.

The table at the top of the CDMA MOBILE REPORTED PILOT STRENGTH screen can be cleared by selecting the "Pilot Meas (Clear)" field on page 335
