Due to the characteristics of the spatial measurement of the second measurement signal, interference occurs between the RF channels, that is, the RF channel 1 to be tested of the first RF remote unit receives the reference RF channel 1 connected to the RF channel 1 to be tested.
- the characteristic signal 1 also receives other characteristic signals (feature signal 2, characteristic signal 3, and characteristic signal 4) transmitted by other reference radio frequency channels.
