Chapter 4, Description of Fields
Fields
Softer Handoff
This field controls softer handoffs.
GPIB Example
“CDMA:CALL:SHAN ‘ON’”
begins a softer handoff.
Operating Considerations
The Connected annunciator in the Call Status field must be lit before a softer
handoff can be performed. Also, Sector B power must be turned on and at a power
level that will allow diversity combining (the default power levels that are set
when the PRESET key is pressed are acceptable). When
On is selected, a handoff
direction message is sent to the mobile station to add Sector B to its active set. The
Softer Handoff annunciator lights until Off is selected or the call is
terminated.
Also, a Pilot Strength Message is sent from the mobile station when a Softer
Handoff is turned On or Off. The Pilot Strength Message updates the CDMA
Mobile Reporting table displayed at the top of the CDMA MOBILE REPORTED
PILOT STRENGTH screen.
