Abstract:
1. A method for performing a wireless reception performance test on a wireless device in wireless communication with a base station emulator, the method comprising: generating a path loss correction factor, the path loss correction factor for compensating for path loss from an antenna port of the base station emulator to an antenna port of the wireless device, generating the path loss correction factor comprising: receiving at least a further signal transmission from the base station emulator, the further signal transmission including the path loss correction factor such that the transmission power of the further signal transmission removes the effect of path loss from the wireless reception performance test; demodulating the received further signal transmission; decoding the demodulated received further signal transmission; re-encoding the decoded received further signal transmission including any errors in the received further signal transmission; and providing the re-encoded received further signal transmission back to the base station emulator for error analysis.
