GSM RX chain activation for manual measurements/GSM RSSI measurement
Prerequisites
Connect a signal generator to a proper RF connector on the phone PWB (note: there are two antenna
connectors for cellular RF on the phone PWB, one for low bands and one for high bands).
Steps
1. Set the phone to local mode.
2. Activate GSM RSSI reading in Phoenix ( Testing → GSM → RSSI Reading )
3. Use the following frequrencies and RF levels in RF generator for different GSM bands:
Setting GSM850 GSM900 GSM1800 GSM1900
Phoenix:

-60dBm -60dBm -60dBm -60dBm
Results
The
RSSI level
reading should reflect the level of the signal generator (- losses) +/- 5 dB.
When varying the level in the range of -30 to -102 dBm, the reading should follow within +/-5 dB.
