determine what legal PN offsets are assigned to each sector face of
each cell. However, any value (1,2,3...) can be entered by the user as
well.
WIN_SIZ
The win_siz parameter controls how many chips delay (or advance)
from the Active pilot the searcher scans for each PN. The choices are
Use WinN (1) , Incr*64 (0), and User specified (2... 512).
Incr*64 mode (recommended)
By default, the Retriever Pilot Scanner uses Incr*64 (0). In this mode,
the entire 32,768-chip PN space is broken up into equal windows of
Incr*64 chips centered on each PN offset on increment incr.
Therefore, if incr=4, the PN space will be divided evenly into 128 PN
offset windows, each 256 chips wide. This setting covers the entire
32,768 chips of the short-code with no overlap or gaps in time.
On an average, the RF propagation yields approximately 6.5 chips
per mile of propagation delay. This means that if incr=4 and
win_siz =256, cells approximately 19.5 miles away can be uniquely
resolved by the Pilot Scanner.
Use WinN and User Specified modes
The Use WinN and User Specified modes are not recommended
unless the user is certain of the purpose and goals of controlling this
variable.
In Use WinN (1) mode, the Retriever Pilot Scanner uses the OTA Air
Neighbor window of the Active serving sector for its search
window. This mode can be used when it is known that Neighbor
windows are well-tailored in a particular area.
In User Specified mode, any window size from 2 to 512 can be
entered by the user.
Note Using either the Use WinN mode or the User Specified mode can result in
problems. If the windows chosen are too small, important RF information may
be missed. If the windows chosen are too large, PN ambiguities may be
introduced.
INTEG
The integ parameter controls how long the Retriever Pilot Scanner’s
