PW6: Measuring Received Signal Strength COURSE LEARNING
OUTCOME (CLO):

Upon completion of this course,
students should be able to:

CLO2: Assemble the related
wireless communication
equipment systematically in
performing the assigned
practical work. [P4, PLO5]

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

i) To measure signal strength
received by Ue from the
Base Station in dBm and
asu.

ii) To determine the power
level for signal strength icon
(1 – 4 bar) the on Ue

iii) To determine the equation
that relate signal strength in
dBm and asu

PW6: Measuring Received Signal Strength EQUIPMENT / DEVICES:

Mobile phone

PROCEDURES:

Procedure A:
1. Measure signal received by the Ue from base station using Ue in dBm

and asu for each signal strength (level; 1 to 4 bars) as state on signal
strength icon.
2. Make sure the coverage area is 4G or 4G+.
3. You may move around, toward, far, down stair or up stair to receive
base station signal in 1 to 4 bar display of signal strength.
4. Complete the signal strength measurement in Table 1.
