Method and system for monitoring a radio transmission link
Patent type: Priority Patent Application
Patent number: US6668160
Registration date: Dec. 23, 2003
Abstract
A radio transmission link between at least one radio transmission device is monitored and at least one radio reception device. Radio transmission links between at least one transmission antenna and one reception antenna are monitored for faults. At least one radio reception device is tuned to the transmission frequency of at least one radio transmission device. The at least one radio transmission device then transmits, during a predetermined time period, a predetermined test signal which is recorded, evaluated and stored as a reference signal in the at least one radio reception device during a predetermined time period. At the start of a test phase, at least one radio transmission device transmits the predetermined test signal. The test signal is compared with the stored reference signal, and an error signal is produced if the comparison result shows that the test signal has changed beyond a predetermined extent with respect to the stored reference signal.
