Publication number: 20230023283Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying Passive Intermodulation (PIM) products are disclosed. Some embodiments use RAN Performance Measurement (PM) counters, of actual DL Traffic Load to correlate with UL noise and interference counters. By using counters, the DL traffic is correlated to the increase in noise and interference in order to determine which DL carrier combinations are causing degradation to which UL carriers. In this way, aggressor-victim grouping can be identified through normal downlink traffic load with uplink interference to identify passive intermodulation products. This can be done for all aggressor-victim groups within a radio base station site or cluster of sites. Also, some embodiments enable estimating the maximum PIM interference created by the aggressor carriers. This helps operators to quantify the impact of PIM and can enable them to take counter measures. These embodiments are Radio Access Technology (RAT) agnostic and operator agnostic for the aggressors within a site.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2020Publication date: January 26, 2023Inventors: Benny Lennartson, Mats Blomgren, Jin Ellgardt, Erik Nilsson
