Patent ID: 8320903

Claim:
A calibration system for calibrating a wireless base station, comprising: a transmit path operable to transmit signals to the wireless base station for calibrating a receive module of the wireless base station and for calibrating a receive sensitivity for the wireless base station; a receive path operable to receive signals transmitted by the wireless base station for calibrating a transmit module of the wireless base station and for calibrating a transmit power level for the wireless base station; and a calibration processor coupled to the transmit path and to the receive path, the calibration processor configured to operate in a plurality of technology types and operable to issue control commands to perform a calibration for the wireless base station based on a technology type for the wireless base station, the technology type selected from the plurality of technology types, wherein when the calibration processor operates in a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology type, the calibration processor selects a number of CDMA code channels for the calibration, and when the calibration processor operates in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology type, the calibration processor selects a number of OFDM sub-channels for each of a plurality of antennas for the calibration.
