Abstract:
An apparatus for determining characteristics of a radio within a communications network includes a radio, RF signal sensor, and analyzer. The radio transmits RF signals and has transmission operating parameters with respective predetermined values defined by a regulatory agency, a manufacturer, a user and a provider, the values having respective thresholds, a unique identifier; and an over-the-air operating mode in which the signals comprise the identifier. The sensor receives the signals from the radio having characteristics correlating with the transmission operating parameters. While the signals are being received during the operating mode, the analyzer measures the signal characteristics and determines health of the radio by analyzing whether the measured characteristics transmitted are within the respective thresholds of the values, and concludes that health is acceptable if the measured characteristics are within the thresholds, and concludes that health is unacceptable if at least one measured characteristic is outside a threshold.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for determining characteristics of a radio within a communications network, comprising:\n at least one radio being mobile or portable and transmitting over-the-air RF signals within the communications network, the at least one radio having:\n transmission operating parameters with respective predetermined values defined by at least one of a regulatory agency, a manufacturer of the at least one radio, a user of the communications network and a provider of the communications network, the predetermined values having respective thresholds; \n a unique identifier; and \n an over-the-air operating mode in which the at least one radio transmits radio frequency (RF) signals within the communications network, the signals comprising at least the unique identifier; \n at least one RF signal sensor receiving the RF signals transmitted from the at least one radio in the over-the-air operating mode, the RF signals comprising the unique identifier and having characteristics correlating with the transmission operating parameters; an analyzer communicatively connected to the at least one RF signal sensor and, while the RF signals are being received during the over-the-air operating mode:\n the analyzer is configured to measure the characteristics of the RF signals and determine a health of the at least one radio by analyzing whether the measured characteristics of the RF signals transmitted from the at least one radio are within the respective thresholds of the predetermined values; \n the analyzer is configured to conclude that the health of the at least one radio is acceptable if the measured characteristics of the RF signals are within the respective thresholds of the predetermined values; and \n the analyzer is configured to conclude that the health of the at least one radio is unacceptable if at least one of the measured characteristics of the RF signals are outside at least one respective threshold of the predetermined values.
