GSM_RF Index Analysis Yao Fanghua Li Hang Guangzhou Southern High-Tech Co., Ltd. [Abstract] This paper analyzes the RF index of GSM mobile phones and discusses the improvement methods. Some of the methods for testing and improving RF indexes are summarized from practical experience and have certain reference value. The first part briefly introduces each RF index. The second part introduces the test methods of RF index. The third part introduces some design and improvement methods to improve RF index. 1 Definition and requirements of RF index 1.1 Receiver sensitivity (Rx sensitivity) (1) Definition Receiver sensitivity refers to the minimum signal level that needs to be input to the receiver input end under the condition of meeting a certain bit error rate performance. The three main parameters for measuring the bit error performance of the receiver are frame erasure rate (FER), residual bit error rate (RBER) and bit error rate (BER). Here we only introduce the use of residual bit error rate (RBER) to measure receiver sensitivity. Residual bit error rate (RBER) is defined as the ratio of received error bits to all transmitted data bits. (2) Technical requirements ● For the GSM900MHz band, the receiving sensitivity requirement: When the RF input level is -102dBm, the RBER does not exceed 2%. The actual sensitivity index can be tested during measurement. According to the test results of many mobile phones: When RBER = 2%, if the RF input level is -109-107dBm, the receiving sensitivity is excellent; if the RF input level is -107-105dBm, the receiving sensitivity is good; if the RF input level is -105-102dBm, the receiving sensitivity is fair; if the RF input level is greater than -102dBm, the receiving sensitivity is unqualified. ● For the DCS1800MHz band, the receiving sensitivity requirement: When the RF input level is -100dBm, the RBER does not exceed 2%. The actual sensitivity index can be tested during measurement. According to the test results of many mobile phones: when RBER = 2%, if the RF input level is -108--105dBm, the receiving sensitivity is excellent; if the RF input level is -105---103dBm, the receiving sensitivity is good; if the RF input level is -103--100dBm, the receiving sensitivity is fair; if the RF input level is >...
