Remote test of a subscriber connection in a system implementing a wireless subscriber connection

Abstract

Abstract The invention concerns a system implementing a wireless subscriber connection and comprising base stations and wireless terminals. The terminal contains functions which may be used for testing the terminal, the subscriber terminal equipment and the connection between them in response to a message which is received via a radio path and which starts the test functions, and which transmit the test results to a radio link. The terminal contains a subscriber line interface circuit (SLIC) with which the subscriber terminal equipment may be connected to the terminal. A connecting line may be used for connecting. Means for generating an alternating voltage may be connected in parallel with the input of the subscriber line interface circuit (SLIC) and the connecting line. A table is stored in the terminal's memory containing function specifications, and in response to the message starting the test functions the terminal searches the table for the function specification and performs the test tasks according to the specification. The tasks also comprise loop measurements.
