Abstract: The present invention is a novel and improved method for monitoring the real time loading condition in a CDMA wireless communication system. The level of the power control signal is obtained by monitoring, in real time, at the base station the forward link CDMA channel, comparing this measurement to the previously obtained level, and displaying the level of the power control signal as a line which can consist of two parts. The first part can be a solid line the length of which represents the level of the power control signal in real time and the second part can be a dotted line whose length increases slowly and decreases rapidly to indicate that the level of the power control signal is rising. Conversely, a rapid increase and a slow decrease of the length of the dotted line indicates that the level of the power control signal is falling. Color coding can be used to indicate that the level of the power control signal is at or outside an optimum operating range.

Abstract: Electric fields A, B and C are inputted to an antenna 20, and corresponding digital values AAD, BAD and CAD obtained from an A/D converter are stored in memories A6, B7 and D12, respectively. An operational circuit 9 obtains a non-linearity corrected input power level conversion table from the input power levels of the electric fields A, B and C and the corresponding digital values AAD, BAD and CAD, and stores the obtained table in a memory C8. The electric field C is the electric field under which the receiver circuit is not linearly operated. A controller reads out the input power level at the time of input of each electric field from the memory C8, and displays the read-out input power level on a input power level display 10. Thus, adverse effects, on linearity, of saturation caused by high input power level electric field input to an antenna or of noise at the time of low input power level electric field input are improved.
