Popis: In this paper, we predict a maximum electric field strength of WCDMA base station using a pilot channel in a code domain. In order to verify the feasibility of our method, we compare our predicted value on a self-designed test base station with a general electric field strength measurement value at a full-traffic load condition and with a calculated value by a ray-tracing technique. Predicted results show above 90 % agreement with the general measurement and calculation values. We also show that our prediction method can be applied to electric field measurement on a real operating base station. Therefore, it is concluded that our prediction method be an effective method to measure a maximum electric field strength in a base station inspection test.
