Feature #3483
handover decision: if rxlev is ok but rxqual is bad, move from TCH/H to TCH/F
0%
Description
Bad quality scenario: rxlev is ok, but rxqual drops below the min_rxqual threshold.
Handover decision 2 contains a switch from TCH/H to TCH/F to improve rxqual. See on_measurement_report() in handover_decision_2.c, by the comment "Bad Quality".
However, that condition seems buggy: "if (... av_rxqual > ho_get_hodec2_min_rxqual(bts->ho))" should probably be the flipped?
To test for this with real equipment, we could manipulate the min_rxqual threshold during a call.
In ttcn3, we could use measurement reports.

3GPP TS 45.008 8.2.4 Range of parameter RXQUAL:
The BER values used to define a quality band are the estimated error probabilities before channel decoding
and RXQUAL_0 means BER < 0.2%, ... RXQUAL_7 means BER > 12.8%.
i.e. a higher RXQUAL value should indicate a worse signal, and the condition is not flipped.
