After the terminal and the instrument establish connection through the antenna probe, the EIS value of each antenna probe is tested first; 2. Then the EIS values of the antenna probes are integrated and averaged; 3. The process of testing the EIS value of each antenna probe is as follows: the instrument sends a large level value through the antenna probe, and the terminal feeds back the bit error rate; 4. According to the size of the bit error rate, the instrument reduces or increases the level value, and sends it to the terminal again through the antenna probe; 5-6 steps are required to reduce and increase the level value to obtain the level value that meets the bit error rate of the terminal, and the level value is taken as the final EIS value of the antenna probe; 5.

[0029] Stp1, testing TIS of a first antenna probe, comprising the following sub-steps:

[0030] SS01, the instrument and the terminal establish connection through the antenna probe and then perform testing;

[0031] SS02, the instrument issues a level value through the antenna probe, and the terminal feeds back a bit error rate;

[0032] SS03, according to the size of the bit error rate, the instrument reduces or increases the level value, and then issues the level value to the terminal through the antenna probe again;

[0034] Stp2, obtaining the estimated EIS value of the antenna probe;

[0035] In the process of testing TIS of the first antenna probe, the EIS value of each antenna probe is obtained; the data is extracted and taken as the estimated EIS value of each antenna probe in the TIS of the second antenna probe, which is recorded as EIS1;

[0036] Stp3, the final EIS value of the first antenna is obtained according to the EIS1 test;

Since the estimated EIS is close to the real EIS, only 3 times of error rate test are generally required.

[0038] Stp4, the estimated EIS value of each antenna probe is further corrected;

[0039] According to the difference between the final EIS value of the first antenna probe and EIS1, the estimated EIS value data closer to the real EIS is further compensated, i.e. EIS2 of each antenna probe; the computer is calculated synchronously, and the system test time is not counted.

Generally, only 3 times of error rate test are required. The error rate test time of each antenna probe is reduced by 2-3 times. Since the estimated EIS is close to the real EIS, only 2-3 times of error rate test are generally required. The error rate test time of each antenna probe is reduced by 3 times on average.

[0042] Stp6, TIS is obtained;

[0043] According to the EIS of each antenna probe, the final TIS is obtained by spherical area integration and averaging.
