SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING FAULT OF A BASE STATION IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A system and a method for detecting a fault of a base station in a communication system are provided to detect fault of a base station by an NMS(Network Management System), thereby widely and quickly detecting a fault of the base station. An NMS(140) comprises the following steps. An OTAR(Over The Air Receiver) result collector(144) receives a strength value of a receiving signal of the first base station. An OTAR result processor(146) computes an average of the signal strength value received until a current moment. A fault decider(148) compares the first and second average values determined according to the averaging computation. If the first average value is different from the second average value, the decider decides that fault occurs in the first base station.
