Wireless relay directional testing
First Claim
1. A method of operating a wireless relay comprising a wireless access point and Relay Equipment (RE) to perform Radio Frequency (RF) testing at geographic azimuths, the method comprising:
- the wireless access point wirelessly exchanging user data with wireless user devices;
the wireless access point and the RE exchanging the user data;
the RE wirelessly exchanging the user data with a wireless communication network;
the RE wirelessly receiving a directional Radio Frequency (RF) test instruction indicating one or more of the geographic azimuths, wherein the directional RF test instruction comprises detecting RF signal strength at a specified date and time, and wherein at least a portion of the directional RF test instruction is wirelessly received by the RE in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message;
the RE performing a directional RF test at the one or more geographic azimuths based on the directional RF test instruction; and
the RE transferring RF test results for the one or more geographic azimuths to the wireless communication network.

Abstract
A wireless relay performs Radio Frequency (RF) testing at geographic azimuths. In the wireless relay, a wireless access point wirelessly exchanges user data with wireless user devices and exchanges the user data with Relay Equipment (RE). In the wireless relay, the RE exchanges the user data with the wireless access point and wirelessly exchanges the user data with a wireless communication network. The RE wirelessly receives a directional RF test instruction indicating geographic azimuths. The RE performs a directional RF test at the geographic azimuths based on the directional RF test instruction. The RE transfers RF test results for the geographic azimuths to the wireless communication network.
