ABSTRACT:
A system and method providing a wireless broadband connection between base stations and customer sites. The system includes indoor units, within the base stations and customer sites, that communicate across cables to outdoor units. The indoor units link to routers, switches and other devices and services. The outdoor units transmit and receive wireless data and send it to the indoor units. The indoor units control the functioning of the outdoor units by transmitting digital messages along the interface cables. The outdoor units report various detector values to the indoor units, which allows the indoor units to tune and adjust several functions within the outdoor units. Several embodiments for automatically calibrating the receive path gain in the base stations to compensate for the base station cable between the indoor unit and outdoor unit are described.delete-start id="DEL-S-00001" date="20101116" ?In addition, andelete-end id="DEL-S-00001" ?insert-start id="INS-S-00001" date="20101116" ?Aninsert-end id="INS-S-00001" ?improved transmit power control technique which is not affected by modulation type, is also described.
