Abstract
A system and method for compensating for attenuation of carrier power by a transmission path. The method includes defining a path from a gateway to a measurement tap, where the path may include an output port of the gateway and path components used to reach the measurement tap; sweeping, in bands, an RF spectrum served by the RFT by sending a signal at a respective band and a band power from the output port over the path; measuring, at the measurement tap, a power metric for each of the bands; capturing, for each of the bands, power level (PL) data including a frequency start of the respective band, a frequency end of the respective band, the respective band power and the respective power metric at the measurement tap; and setting a carrier power level (CPL) of a carrier having a frequency start and a frequency end, where the CPL is based on the PL data associated with one more of the bands included in the frequency start and the frequency end, where the path components may include one or more connecting cables, one or more switches, and one or more equipment in the path.
