parameter NGHBR_MAX_AGE.
Be aware of the following:
_
Currently the srch_parm command groups search windows and
handoff parameters together. The user must override all of them
together.
_
Retriever currently overrides these system parameters for all
serving sectors encountered during the test.
_
If handoff parameters T_ADD, T_DROP, and T_COMP are
specified which are different than those being used OTA in the
network, Pilot Strength Measurement Messages will be adjusted
so that the pilots’ reported energies conform to those which
would have generated the respective T_ADD, T_DROP, or
T_COMP events using the OTA thresholds. That is, if the user’s
desired T_ADD is lower than the actual threshold the system is
using, pilots generating add events may have their reported
energies adjusted upward in the PSMM, if necessary, to match
the Over-the-Air T_ADD. This is to force handoffs in networks
utilizing certain infrastructure brands which look at pilot
energies in the PSMMs to decide whether or not to actually add
the pilot.
Syntax
srch_parm win_a win_n win_r t_add t_drop t_comp t_tdrop
nghbr_max_age
win_a
, win_n and win_r are IS-95A/J-STD-008 window sizes 0–15.
For example, 7=40 chips, 8=60 chips, 9=80 chips, 10=100 chips, and
so on.
t_add
, t_drop, and t_comp are the handoff parameters, specified in
half-dB units.
t_tdrop
is the index into the T_TDROP threshold table given in
IS-95A/J-STD-008. For example, 2=2 seconds, 3=4 seconds, 4=6
Script Command List
nghbr_max_age
is the maximum number of consecutive Neighbor
List Update messages not containing a pilot to be retained in the
Neighbor set, as defined in IS-95A/J-STD-008.
Example
srch_parm 7 12 10 28 32 5 3 0
Response
Sets up the Retriever to operate as a normal phone with the
following pre-defined parameters: T_ADD=14dB, T_DROP=16dB,
