A kind of method of carrying out the uplink error rate test at the 3G radio frequency remote unit RRU of the present invention, comprise: utilize common software to produce one group of bit stream, carry out baseband coding modulation scrambling spread spectrum framing by 3G communication standard physical layer standard and handle, generate the base band data file; The form of base band data file by the requirement of signal source base band data, generate the signal source file, be written in the 3G signal source; Signal source is set to the arbitrary signal emergence pattern, by 3G standard chip-rate and formed filter is set, and baseband signal is modulated into the radiofrequency signal of the frequency range that requires, and outputs to attenuator through signal source radio frequency mouth, is input to the radio frequency mouth of RRU again; Through a series of processing of RRU receiver, radiofrequency signal is separated and is transferred to digital baseband signal, and the CPU in the automatic receiver control of RRU upper layer software (applications) reads a piece of digital baseband signal, is deposited in the output data file of assigned catalogue; Error rate test software read data files is also calculated the error rate.
The present invention is method as mentioned above, wherein, error rate test software carries out symbol synchronization, phase place compensate of frequency deviation, descrambling and de-spreading demodulation, demultiplexing decoding to digital baseband signal by physical layer standard, obtain the bit stream file, the bit stream file of bit stream file that obtains and input is compared, obtain number of bit errors,, obtain the error rate through repeatedly adding up in a large number.
The present invention is method as mentioned above, and wherein, the 3G communication standard is TD-SCDMA, or is WCDMA, or is CDMA2000.
The present invention is method as mentioned above, wherein, the corresponding function module of error rate test software is made executable API interface, by clicking the error rate calculation button, calculates the error rate.
The present invention is method as mentioned above, and wherein, read data files is that PC utilizes serial ports or network interface to read.
Advantage of the present invention: having solved RRU manufacturer does not need BBU manufacturer to cooperate the problem that yet can carry out the uplink error rate index test, and test operation is succinctly convenient, greatly reduces testing cost and testing time.

Embodiment
The invention provides a kind of method of carrying out the uplink error rate test at the 3G Remote Radio Unit.
This method of testing comprises process as shown in Figure 1.Generate the base band data file by random bit by the physical layer modulation process, the Text Mode generation data source file of base band data file according to signal source.Data source file is write 3G signal source (as Agilent ESG4438C), signal source is arranged to the arbitrary signal emergence pattern, chip-rate and pulse-shaping filter are pressed the setting of 3GPP standard, signal source is exported the radiofrequency signal of required frequency range, radiofrequency signal enters RRU equipment to be tested, RRU equipment receiver link becomes base band to radiofrequency signal and receives data, and it is bit through software demodulation that base band receives data, relatively obtains the error code bit number by the bit and the former emission bit of demodulation.
Utilize common software to produce one group of bit stream, carry out baseband coding modulation scrambling spread spectrum framing by 3G communication standard (TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, CDMA2000) physical layer standard and handle, generate the baseband chip file.The form of baseband chip file by the requirement of signal source base band data, generate the signal source file, be written in the signal source.Signal source is set to the arbitrary signal emergence pattern, and (TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, CDMA2000) is provided with chip-rate and formed filter by 3G standard, baseband signal is modulated into the radiofrequency signal of the frequency range that requires.Output to attenuator through signal source radio frequency mouth, be input to the radio frequency mouth of RRU again.Through a series of processing of RRU receiver, radiofrequency signal is separated and is transferred to digital baseband signal, and the CPU in the automatic receiver control of RRU upper layer software (applications) reads a piece of digital baseband signal, is deposited in the output data file of assigned catalogue.Calculate the error rate by error rate test software read data files.The error rate test software function comprises: digital baseband signal is carried out symbol synchronization, phase place compensate of frequency deviation, descrambling and de-spreading demodulation, demultiplexing decoding by physical layer standard, obtain the bit stream file, the bit stream file of bit stream file that obtains and input is compared, just can obtain number of bit errors, through repeatedly adding up in a large number, can obtain the error rate.Error rate test software above-mentioned functions module is made executable API interface, only need the error rate calculation button in the some software, just can obtain the error rate automatically.
