Operation Guide - RX Path Imbalance
Operation Guide - RX Path Imbalance
REASON
This problem is created because there is a difference between the signal strength
levels of the path A and path B in the reception part of the RBS that exceeds the
limits defined by the Define RX Path Imbalance Parameters in the OMT.
The supervision of this fault is based on measurements over a long period; hence the
fault does not cease as soon as the fault is corrected.
Actions are to be taken by
1. Field Team
2. NPM Team

1. In the OMT select Maintenance , Monitor and select the RX Imbalance for
the TRX carrying a traffic.
2. The Average delta signal strength A-B and Number of samples A-B will be
shown in the window and the monitor will update every 5 minutes.
Check physical connections based on the result from Monitoring
1. Check the RX cables, Jumpers, feeders, cable connections inside and outside
the cabinet and antennas, for example, with Antenna System SWR tests.
2. Open and reconnect all internal RF Coaxial cable.
3. Check and tighten all feeder system connection.
4. When the fault is corrected, reset the TRU to cease the fault immediately.
5. Test the possibility of antenna fault, and replace if required
Notes
1. 2G cannot handle AISG.
2. If incorrect UL/DL attenuation and delay is set for the sharing path between
RUSs an imbalance will result in the system.
3. When TMA/ATMA is in use the gain is set manually for the 2G-side. If this is not
done an imbalance will occur. This is mainly for tri-band Antennas.

If no alarms are observed after changing the configuration then it clearly shows the
configuration fault (not HW/SW fault).
