Abstract
The invention discloses a method () for finding differences in path loss between a plurality of RF paths between a first () and a second () transceiver in a wireless communications system (). During definedintervals of time (SACCH-SACCH), only one RF path is used to transmit from one of said transceivers to the other of said transceivers, and the receiving transceiver measures the strength of the signal received during at least a number of said intervals, thus making it possible to compare signal strength and thereby path loss between different RF paths, which in turnmakes it possible to find imperfections in one or more of said RF paths.
