Ec/No description


Abbreviation for received Energy per Chip / power density in the band
The Ec (RSCP)/ No (RSSI - total receive power) is the received energy per chip divided by the power density in the band. No includes the power of specified cell as it indicates total receive power (as a result, Ec/No is deteriorated by increasing 'No')

Ec/No (dB) = RSCP(db) - RSSI (db)

Since, RSSI > RSCP, therefore Ec/No is -ve.
