1 In the same experiment in which I connected our CMU200 instrument to a decased
2 Pirelli motherboard (see rssi) I also observed the Tx power levels put out by
3 this phone in the PCS band by commanding the phone (by way of the CMU200 acting
4 in the role of a BTS in signaling mode) to transmit at each PCL from 0 to 15
5 and observing the actual power measured by the CMU200. Here are the findings:
6 the Pirelli puts out 29.2 dBm at the highest PCL 0 (spec number is 30 dBm),
7 whereas for all other PCLs the measured power was within 0.2 dB of the spec
8 number. Thus it appears that Pirelli's Tx calibration was done like TI's
9 LoCosto, with only the highest power level shifted down by 0.8 dB while all
10 others are spec numbers. This is a smaller fudging than that which was done by
11 Openmoko and which we currently replicate on our FCDEV3B modems.
