INTRO CCOMPANY

COMPANY

SIRA is a private company operating for more than 35 years in the Broadcasting, Civil and Military telecommunications, capable to design, fabricate and install antennas for FM, UHF, VHF, GSM, UMTS, WLAN and WiMAX, as well as Manual Switches, Combiners, Band-pass.Filters and Switching Units for the Radio, TV and Telecom markets, with the highest quality and reliability standards.

SIRA is part of the Kathrein Group, a world leader in the production of professional Telecom antennas, and it is the exclusive distributor of Kathrein K.G. Telecom products for the Italian market. Sira is also the official distributor of the Finnish cable manufacturer Draka as well as for the Telegartner GmbH range of connectors and coaxial components.

Over the years, SIRA has continued to pursue a customer-oriented philosophy, aiming to achieve the most effective collaboration with customers in order to find the best possible technical and economical solution to their requirements.

This ethos, together with the sheer quality of the products and services offered, and the constant research and development activities, allow SIRA to be up to date with the ultimate cutting-edge technologies.This has made SIRA one of the best-known names in Broadcasting and Telecom, guaranteeing a constant growth over time.

The company headquarters are in Caponago (MB), in the North of Italy, in a state of-the-art facility, covering over 11,000 square metres, and complete with modern in-house equipment such as anechoic chambers for Telecom antenna tests as well as one of the most up-to-date test ranges in the Industry for testing any of the complex Broadcasting antenna systems manufactured.

The companys business is mainly focused on the international market (around 70% of the sales are international), and thanks to the sales and logistics organisation, Sira has been able to serve clients in every corner of the globe.

In fact, there are more than 120 countries all over the world where you can find SIRA products installed and operated by many satisfied and loyal customers who have made the Company a world leader in this Industry.

TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT

TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT

All activities taking place in and on behalf of SIRA are regulated by an integrated system that manages and guarantees quality parameters, as well as environment and safety protection.

SIRA has achieved various quality certificates, like UNI EN ISO 9001 (2008) and UNI EN ISO 14001 (2004).

In addition to these, SIRAs Management has devised further guidelines which are followed during the performance of activities and processes and represent SIRAs commitment towards its customers, partners and employees:

to supply products/services that are reliable and fit for the purposes of achieving customer satisfaction;

to improve company efficiency as a means to achieve competitiveness in the operating markets;

to minimize defects in incoming materials, failures in company processes and, as a result, defects in delivered products;

to deliver, within the company, the culture of quality as a factor of professional growth;

to ensure company efficiency, as proven by recognition from an accredited certifying body.

In order to implement these principles, a Quality Management Document and a Quality Department have been set up.

The Quality Manager in charge of it has well-defined tasks and authority:

to make sure that the Quality Management System requirements are set, applied and maintained in conformity with the previously defined requirements;

to report about the performances and efficiency of the Quality Management System for the purpose of reappraisal and improvement;

to perform in-house audits

Functioning principles of FM combiners

FUNCTIONING PRINCIPLES OF FM DIRECTIONAL FILTER TYPE COMBINERS

The signal generated by a transmitter on frequency f1 is delivered to port 1 (Narrow Band input) of coupler A1 (3 dB coupler) which splits the power in two halves on to ports 2 and 3, whilst virtually no power goes to port 4 which is the absorber load port. The two half power signals flow through the band pass filters BP1 and BP2, both tuned on f1, and reach ports 2 and 3 of 3dB coupler A2.Due to the phase difference between the two half signals, they get summed up on A2 (3 dB coupler), so that the whole f1 transmitter power (less NB input loss) gets to port 4 of A2, which actually is the combiner output.Similarly, the signal from another transmitter (f2), is delivered to port 1 of coupler A2 (3 dB coupler).The signal is split in two by the 3 dB coupler and flows toward the band pass filters.Being these tuned on f1, f2 signal is rejected by the band pass filters, and as per the previous case, the phase difference between ports 2 and 3 of the 3 dB coupler allows the summed up half power f2 signals to get to the combiner output (port 4). By doing so both transmitter signals are summed up at the output and kept separated (isolation) by means of the 3 dB coupler directivity as well as by the selectivity of the band pass filters. In the event that a very high level of isolation is required in both directions (WB to NB and viceversa), it is recommended to add a band pass filter to the wide Band input or to add another combiner module to the same input so that there will be two Narrow Band inputs plus a spare wide Band input, winch can be used for emergency situations (any frequency of the FM spectrum can be operated through the WB input), or to add further modules in order to assemble multiplexers (n+1) with no limitations except of the power capacity of the last 3 dB coupler.

The Star Type Combiner basically consists of parallel connecting several transmitters to a single antenna system through suitable bandpass filters, each one tuned on the transmitter frequency towhich it is connected. The parallel connection is obtained by means of coaxial lines of critical lenght.The RF power generated by TX1 (ch1) passes through filter BP1 to the star centre C to which the antenna is connected. In order to transfer to the antenna the total power from TX1,the short circuit of TX2 at TX1 frequency , must be converted to an open circuit at the star junction centre by means of L2.The same applies for transferring power from transmitters TX2 and the related conversion lines L1, L2.
