Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a method and device for fault detection of a repeater system, a storage medium and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] In wireless communication systems, repeaters play a vital role. They receive signals from base stations, amplify them, and then send them out to expand the coverage of wireless signals. Repeater systems are usually composed of antenna units and radio frequency units, which are connected by optical fibers or other transmission media to achieve long-distance transmission of signals.
[0003] In the existing repeater system, in order to ensure the stability and reliability of signal transmission, the current and voltage of key components in the system are usually monitored. This monitoring method can promptly detect hardware faults that directly affect the current and voltage, such as power supply problems, poor connections, or damage to certain key components. When these components have problems, the network management platform can receive alarm signals and handle them. However, most hardware link failures do not directly affect the current and voltage. For these hardware link failures, this method is often difficult to monitor. Usually, the maintenance personnel will not notice it until the repeater function is abnormal, which brings a bad experience to users. At the same time, even if the maintenance personnel notice the abnormal function of the repeater, they cannot quickly locate the abnormal hardware link of the repeater, because the antenna unit and the radio frequency unit included in the repeater are often far apart, and multiple radio frequency units are deployed in a dispersed manner. In addition, the hardware links in the antenna unit and the radio frequency unit are complex, and manual inspection one by one will take a lot of time.

The second processor RU FPGA and the second signal transceiver RUTRANSCEIVE are deployed in the radio frequency unit. The signal amplifier PA is connected to RU TRANSCEIVE through the fourth hardware link D link, and is connected to external components through the fifth hardware link E link. Fault detection is mainly divided into five parts: the first hardware link (A link), the second hardware link (B link), the third hardware link (C link), the fourth hardware link (D link) and the fifth hardware link (E link). For fault detection on the antenna unit side, firstly, the B link is detected for faults. After confirming that the antenna unit AU meets the test conditions, the AU FPGA will control the B switch to be in the on state. When the B switch is in the on state, the target test signal is sent to the AU TRANSCEIVER through the B link, and the test signal received by the AU TRANSCEIVER is then transmitted back to the AUFPGA through the same B link. Then, the first distortion parameter EVM between the target test signal and the first test signal is calculated, and the target parameter threshold and the first distortion parameter are compared. When the first distortion parameter is greater than the target parameter threshold, it is determined that the connection state of the B link is an abnormal connection state; then the A link fault detection is performed, and the B switch is controlled to be in the off state and the A switch is in the on state. When the A switch is in the on state, the target test signal can be sent to the N head through the B link and the A link, and the test signal received by the N head is transmitted back to the AU FPGA through the same A link and the B link, and then the second distortion parameter is calculated. Similarly, the fault detection sequence for the RF unit side is the C link, the D link, and the E link. The detection steps are similar to the detection steps on the antenna unit side, and will not be repeated here.
