With reference to Fig. 1, method one embodiment of diagnosing base station channel failure of the present invention is proposed, the method comprises:
Step S101 receives the baseband signal that Base Band Unit BBU sends, and described baseband signal is converted to downstream signal, and described downstream signal is carried out power calculation, obtains the downstream signal performance number;
When distributed base station moved in commercial network, Base Band Unit BBU was connected with radio frequency remote unit RRU, and BBU sends to RRU with baseband signal, and the RRU side is converted to this baseband signal the downstream signal of normal operation, and this downstream signal is transferred to user side.In the present embodiment, can adopt downstream signal as detection signal, to carry out the failure diagnosis of RRU passage.After receiving the baseband signal that BBU sends, need to be with it through frequency up-converted, namely be converted to downstream signal, then, data when grasping a certain time slot in this downstream signal, and calculate according to these data, just can obtain the downstream signal performance number of downstream signal, this downstream signal performance number can be designated as P_IQ_BB_Tx[n].
Step S102 launches described downstream signal, measures the transmit signal power value of transmission channel, and calculates the forward signal performance number that described downstream signal feeds back to sense channel;
When RRU is converted to downstream signal with the baseband signal that the BBU that receives sends, and through after having calculated the downstream signal performance number of this downstream signal, just can utilize the sender in the RRU down going channel that received downstream signal is launched, and downstream signal is gone out by the exterior antenna port transmission, at this moment, power output in the time of need to exporting transmission channel to this downstream signal is measured, and the performance number that measures just is the transmit signal power value.Simultaneously, after descending signal transfers to filter, can control this downstream signal by switch and feed back to sense channel, and downstream signal is converted to digital signal, by control board, this digital signal is received and calculate its corresponding power detection value, this power detection value is downstream signal through the forward signal performance number of sense channel.
