[0052] Example two

[0053] Usually, the power of the baseband signal output from the remote radio unit RRU is too large, and the spectrum analyzer may be burned out. Similarly, the power of the radio frequency signal on the radio frequency antenna port selected from the radio frequency switch may also be high. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application also provides a radio frequency test system for an LTE base station. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that an electronically adjustable attenuator is added between the remote radio unit RRU and the radio frequency switch. See image 3 , Which is a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of a radio frequency test system for an LTE base station of this application. The system includes: a control PC101, an internal local area network 102, an auxiliary control unit 103a, a remote radio unit RRU103b, and an electronically adjustable attenuator 103c, The radio frequency switch 103d...

[0065] Example three

[0066] The embodiment of the present application also provides a radio frequency test system for an LTE base station. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that a channel simulator is added between the remote radio unit RRU and the ESC attenuator. See Figure 4 , Which is a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of a radio frequency test system for an LTE base station of this application. The system includes: a control PC101, an internal local area network 102, an auxiliary control unit 103a, a radio remote unit RRU103b, a channel simulator 103h, and Tuning attenuator 103c, radio frequency switch 103d, circulator 103e, spectrum analyzer 103f and signal generator 103g. This implementation introduces a channel simulator 103h, which is used to simulate various wireless channel propagation environment models under the control of the control PC101 to test wireless radio frequency performance indicators. Since the contr...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the test technology in the communication field, in particular to a radio frequency test system and method for an LTE base station. Background technique [0002] The existing LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) E-NodeB (Evolved NodeB, evolved Node B) mostly adopts a distributed structure, and the distributed base station refers to the BBU (Base Band Unit, base station processing unit) and RRU (Remote Radio Unit (radio remote unit) is a base station mode in which each is placed separately as an independent module and connected through an optical fiber. Among them, the RRU mainly implements functions such as a radio frequency transceiver and a power amplifier. In actual use, in order to ensure the stability of the system, it is necessary to conduct radio frequency tests on the RRU. [0003] From the content of the test, the radio frequency test mainly includes the transmitter radio frequency test and the recei...
