Abstract
A radio access network (RAN) cell site field test tool with a mobile application extension wherein a diagnostic function can be invoked automatically based on preconfigured event criteria or can be initiated remotely by a preregistered human or machine user. Example diagnostic functions may include the ability to test one or all the following functional/structural subsystems of a RAN cell site infrastructure comprising: fronthaul components, backhaul components, baseband components, GPS/location components, transceiver components, antenna components, enclosure/chassis components, internal monitoring components, cooling/AC and other ambient climate control components, environmental/regulatory compliance components, and power components.
