2.1 Functions of DRFU
It implements the direct frequency conversion technique in the transmit
channel, modulates the baseband signals to GSM RF signals. After filtering,
amplifying, and combining the RF signals, the DRFU sends the signals to
the antenna for transmission. The combining can be performed as required.
It receives RF signals from the antenna and performs down-conversion,
amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, matched filtering, and Automatic
Gain Control (AGC). Then, the DRFU transmits the signals to the BBU for
further processing.
It controls power and detects the Voltage Standing Wave Ration (VSWR).
