3 Overview

Nowadays personal mobile communication is developing faster than ever, and people arehaving higher requirements on mobile communication. A high-speed and large-capacitycommunication system has become the trend of future development. Presently, thesecond-generation mobile communications system, GSM, is widely used all over the world.There will be no, definitely, breakthroughs in the improvement of its communication rateand capacity.

As a third-generation mobile communication technology, WCDMA is widely used inEurope, North America and Korea. The Code Division Multi Access (CDMA) technology

used in WCDMA greatly extends the signal width -- the so-called spread spectrummodulation. As an advanced wireless communication technology, WCDMA features goodmulti-channel access capability, anti-multipath fading capacity, anti-narrowbandinterference capability and security protection capability.

The WCDMA network has the cell breathing effect. That is, the coverage will graduallyshrink as the cell load increases. The cell breathing effect makes network planning morecomplicated. The CDMA technology itself determines that the load of the WCDMA networkat the early stage of construction should be higher than that of the GSM network.Therefore, adding carriers is a major means of the WCDMA network capacity expansion,and adding Node B base stations is an auxiliary means of capacity expansion. TheWCDMA radio network should provide a continuous coverage, instead of hotspotcoverage.

The cost of a repeater is low and the construction is simple, it has the functions of a miniNode B. On the WCDMA network, repeaters can help Node B to achieve the optimalnetwork quality at the minimum cost.

The WCDMA system features large capacity and small coverage. After a Node B isconstructed, the capacity is large, but the coverage radius is small. Therefore, the numberof users who access it is very small. In this way, a large amount of channel resources arewasted. The best way of solving this problem is to use repeaters to extend the coverageradius to fully utilize the telecommunication resources. For example, in the WCDMAnetwork construction in China, repeaters are not considered as peripheral devices tocover blind areas any longer, but a part of the network.

The complete coverage is not only a prerequisite for a high quality mobile cellular network,

but also a factor that attracts users. From this point of view, a network operator should firstconsider providing a radio network with a complete coverage. The seamless coverage inurban areas, heavy traffic areas, office buildings, super markets, and top grade hotels isthe first step to consummate the network.

In such a background, we successfully developed the 37dBm repeaters that areapplicable to the WCDMA+PCS indoor distributed system.

5.3 Internal Modules

S37-DB multi-band Select repeater is actually a mobile communication signal relayamplification device with the same frequency. It has two separate internal amplificationlinks, uplink (or forward link) and down link (or reverse link). Downlink receives signalsfrom BTS (Adopt donor antenna and BTS by air coupling), send the signals to coveragearea after amplification. At the same time, the uplink receives the signals from MS throughserver antenna. After amplification, the signals are sent back to BTS through donorantenna. Thereby smooth and clear communication is achieved.

Within the device, there are four independent selection modules for each uplink anddownlink. Corresponding to various combinations of PCS and WCDMA.

Remark: The working frequency for S37

Duplexer: The main purpose of duplexer is to combine downlink and uplink to share thesame antennas, the duplexer is composted of one pair of band pass filter that can not onlyreject the spurious interference, but also increase the isolation of Uplink and Downlink

LNA: LNA is the first active sub system of the repeater, of which low noise and highlinearity is requested under strong input signals. LNA is the major sub system thatdetermines the noise figure of the repeater system. S37 LNA module including thefunctions for 4-way splitter and 4-way coupler.

FC (band selective module): SAW filer is adopted in FC sub system to reject signals ofother operators to make sure the signals clean and increase the UL and DL isolation. S37includes 4 groups of FC modules.

HPA: The power amplifier sub system helps the repeater to reach its targeted outputpower, linearity of which decides the linearity of the repeater

Power supply is to supply power electricity to all repeaters modules

Control unit is to do sampling of repeaters internal modules and send correct feedback oralarms to engineers through its USB or Modem, and can also indicate some statusthrough LED. Control panel also sends orders from the engineers to monitor and configurethe repeaters.

Wireless MODEM is to provide remote communication between the control panel andremote OMT software.

Commissioning tools and instruments

VSWR tester and fittings Spectrum analyzer

(MS2711B)

Multimeter

Signal generator Test cable Notebook PC

Drive test devices Compass Wrench and safety belt

9.2 Commissioning Procedure and Commissioning Basis

9.2.1 Testing VSWR of Antenna and Feeder System

The maximum VSWR of the antenna and feeder system that is tested at the donorantenna and the transmitting antenna should be less than 1.5. Otherwise, check whetherall interfaces of the antenna and feeder system are connected tightly or whether the

feeder is intact.

9.2.2 Obtaining Required Donor Signals by Adjusting Donor Antenna

Connect the donor antenna to the external antenna port of the test UE through a feeder.Connect the test UE to the notebook PC through a data line.

Fasten the donor antenna horizontally and vertically.

PCS SYSTEM:

Run the test software to check the signal strength and the Communication error rate (BERbetter than 0.4%).

Adjust the azimuth and down tilt of the donor antenna so that the selected carrier signalreaches the maximum (the signal strength better than -50dBm, communication can notswitch and drop in the 3 minutes, the time of BER better than 0.4% more than 90%)

At the same time donor antenna must have clear signals, request the signal strength ofdistrict should be stronger, and more than 6dBm.

WCDMA SYSTEM:

Run the test software to check the signal strength and the Ec/Io of each PN

Adjust the azimuth and downtilt of the donor antenna so that the Ec/Io of the PN of theselected carrier signal reaches the maximum and is greater than 7, and Ec/Io of otherPNs is less than 15.


22/26

- 20 -


9.2.3 Testing Downlink Received Power at Donor Port of Repeater

After donor antenna is installed, please connect with the cable and pull the cable to where

the repeater is installed, and then connect with engineering mobile phone to test again thedonor signals.

PCS SYSTEM:

PCS BCCH signal strength better than -50dBm, communication can not switch and dropin the 3 minutes, the time of BER better than 0.4% more than 90%

Donor antenna must have clear signals, request the signal strength of district should bestronger, and more than 6dBm

GSM BCCH signal level shall be less than 40dBm.Please add external attenuator if theinput signal level is strong (External attenuator wont increase the noise figure much)

WCDMA SYSTEM:

Connect the donor antenna to the spectrum analyzer through a feeder.

Set the intermediate frequency (IF) and the channel bandwidth to 5 MHz on the spectrumanalyzer. Test the power of signals that the donor antenna receives. Usually, the level ofsignals received by the donor antenna should be less than 40 dBm. If the signal level isgreater than40 dBm, adjust the attenuator so that the signal level is less than 40 dBm.Since the WCDMA network has breathing effect, the output power level shall have 7~10dBspare for traffic, therefore the level of received signals shall be less than 58dBm( 10dBspare in areas with more traffic) or 55dBm(7dB with standard traffic), more than that willlead to breathing effect of coverage area.

The signals (WCDMA pilot signals) tested by the spectrum analyzer are spectrum signalswith a bandwidth of 3.84 MHz. There are no other signals around this bandwidth.

9.2.4 Testing Effective Downl ink Path Loss

PCS SYSTEM:

The downlink path loss between BTS and the donor antenna is as follows:

LD-link = PBTS-PBTS PORT BCCH (PBTS PORT BCCH refers to the BCCH power level to theRepeater input port, the value can be obtained by engineering mobile phone)

The macro BTS in the urban area usually has the output power level of 4~6W as per eachcarrier, while the microcell has 1~2W as per each carrier

For example, donor BCCH power level is 4W:

LD-link =36- PBTS PORT BCCH

Budgeting Maximum Uplink Low Noise Power Output at Donor Port of Repeater

In usual cases, the effective uplink path loss is roughly equal to the effective downlink pathloss. Because GSM system requests that the uplink noise power from the repeater to BTS

is less than 121dBm

Therefore the repeater UL gain shall be GupLD-linkNF , (NF is the repeater UplinkNoise figure)

Suppose Gnoise= LD-linkNF.


23/26

- 21 -


WCDMA SYSTEM:

The downlink path loss between node B and the donor antenna is as follows:

LD-link = Pnode B-Pdonor (Pdonor is the downlink signal power received at the donor end)

Suppose: The maximum transmitting power of node B is 20 W and the overhead poweraccounts for 20%. When there is no traffic, the transmitting power of node B is as follows:

Pnode B=20W*20%=4W=36 dBm

The effective downlink path loss is as follows:

LD-link=36-Pdonor

9.2.5 Downlink gain setting

There are three factors to be followed to set DL gain of indoor repeater:

Meet with isolation requirement of G1= LISO-10dB

The repeaters gain shall be less than Isolation I -10dB, and if it allows, the gain shall beless than Isolation I -15dB

Meet with UL noise Gnoise

The UL noise from the repeater shall be less than the thermal noise floor when reachingBTS tower.

The DL gain G2 shall be set so that the repeater can reach its full downlink output power

Finally to set the gain GDL= MING1Gnoise +8dBG2

UL Gain GUL= MING1GnoiseG2

Gnoise +8dB explanation: The downlink gain can be maximum 8dB higher than uplinkgain in indoor repeater solutions

Downlink gain setting procedures:

PCS system

Use engineering mobile phone to test the input signal strength at the repeaters BTS port,in order to get the exact values of PBTS PORT BCCH (GSM)

The gain to meet the targeted output power

Set G2=PDL MAX-PBTS PORT BCCH

WCDMA system

Set G2=PDL MAX-PBTS PORT PILOT-7dB

-6dB explanation: pilot signal of WCDMA system only takes up 10% of the BTS totaloutput power, and shall be set at 60% capacity, then the gain shall be set according to theinput power level of Pilot CH in order to avoid breathing effect, therefore there will be 6dBleft from the total output power to leave the capacity to traffic channels


24/26

- 22 -


The Downlink maximum gain GDLMIN (G2Gnoise +8dBLISO-10dB) , usually the value

shall be the equal value, but if the coverage size is not big, please reduce the gain to somedegree.

The attenuation should be less than 30 dB when you set the downlink gain of the repeaterand it would be the best to attenuate less than 15dB range, and in case more than 15dBattenuation is needed, please use external attenuator.

9.2.6 Uplink gain setting

UL maximum gain GUL MINGDL, Gnoise, LISO-10dB

With the condition of meeting above formula, GUL value is usually between GDL andGDL-4dB

9.2.7

Adjusting System IsolationWhen the repeater gain is set improperly, or the isolation between the donor antenna andthe transmitting antenna is insufficient, self-oscillation often happens. A self-oscillatedsignal is a high amplitude signal of an in band frequency. Result of self oscillation: Slightself oscillation leads to non-linearity of repeaters output power, that would accordinglyworsen the signal quality and cause noises, if it is more serious, there will be call drops,and the most serious one would lead to the collapse of BTS tower.

Below methods are available to check if the repeater has self oscillation or not: Comparethe spectrums in below two test result

Illustration 1 the repeaters output power is connected with a load

Illustration 2 the repeaters output power is connected with a server antenna

When there is no self oscillation, the two spectrums shall be quite similar

When there is self oscillation, some quite strong signals would be detected in Illustration 2,and many spurious signals would come out. Please try to reduce the gain of the repeater,you will see these spurious disappears immediately.

This figure and the actual repeater and antenna will be different, but the meaning is the

same expression

An effective way of eliminating self-oscillation is to reduce the gain, adjust the azimuth anddown tilt of the antenna, and increase the system isolation.

the inequality LISO-Grep >10B is not satisfied after the repeater gain is determined, take thefollowing measures to increase the system isolation:

Tune the azimuth of the donor antenna

Tune the down tilt of the donor antenna

Tune the azimuth of the transmitting antenna

Tune the down tilt of the transmitting antenna

Add isolation net at the back of the antenna

9.2.8 Detecting Repeater

When you cannot find the reason why the receiving or transmitting channel is abnormal,you can use a source-scanning spectrum analyzer to detect the repeater. (For thespecifications, see the instructions for the repeater.) Note that the amplitude of theintroduced signal must agree with the actual condition.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:

When testing the downlink power of the repeater, use couplers or attenuators to avoidburning out the tester.
