Configuring Active Power Control
This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature GBFD117602 Active Power Control.
Prerequisites
Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
License
The license controlling this feature has been activated.
Context
Active Power Control enables the immediate performance of power control after an MS
successfully gains access to the network or a handover is successfully performed in the BSC. In
such a case, the BSC can control the uplink and downlink power promptly. Therefore, both the
BTS and the MS transmit signals at a proper power. With the active power control, the system
interference is decreased, the QoS is ensured, and the power consumption of the MS or BTS is
decreased.
Procedure
Activation Procedure
1.
2.
Run the BSC6900 MML command SET GCELLBASICPARA. In this step, set UL
PC Allowed to YES(Yes), and set DL PC Allowed to YES(Yes).
Verification Procedure
1.
2.
3.
Make a call.
NOTE:
Ensure that the level is good during the test with the uplink/downlink level being
greater than -60 dBm in the measurement report.
4.
Activation message are not the maximum (the maximum power level of the 900M cell
is 5 and that of the 1800M cell is 0).
Deactivation Procedure
1.
2.
Run the BSC6900 MML command LST GCELLPWRBASIC to query the setting
of Power Forecast Allowed.
Expected result: Power Forecast Allowed is set to NO.
