Preface Personal mobile communication is now part of daily life and persons have come to expect a robust network that meets their increased demand for an always-on network that provides seamless coverage and unlimited bandwidth at high speeds. Cellular repeaters are an integral part of achieving this goal. A cellular tower in a non-metro environment typically supports a large capacity of users but is affected by a relatively small coverage footprint. Therefore, the average number of users who can access it is limited and a large amount of channel resources go unused. The best way of solving this problem is to use repeaters to extend the BTS coverage to fully utilize the telecommunication resources. Hence cellular repeaters are no longer considered as peripheral devices to cover blind areas in the network but as part of the core network itself. Extending coverage and maximizing the available network resources and revenue growth for the operator. The complete coverage approach 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 first consider providing a radio network architecture with complete coverage in mind. This includes seamless coverage in urban areas, residential houses, parking lots as the first step. Cellular repeaters successfully aid in accomplishing this. With this in mind, JDTECK has focused on successfully developing advanced repeaters that are applicable to any mobile network and indoor technology or frequency antenna
. used today. Because a large amount of BTS or Node B devices are deployed in densely populated urban areas, there is usually no large blind area. Repeaters are simply used to cover small blind areas and provide signal coverage inside buildings or sub-ground locations. Typically, radio frequency (RF) repeaters are used when optical fibers are not available in buildings or when using a fiber solution is not cost effective. Since the number of repeaters on a cellular network usually increases with the number of buildings to be covered in a specific sector, multiple repeaters may end up feeding from one BTS or Node B. In view of this, the design of the antenna is extremely important to maintain an acceptable noise floor and thus achieve seamless integration to the macro network especially in densely populated areas. Repeaters adopt an integrated module concept. It is compact in structure and combines the RF module and the monitoring mode in one unit. Owing to its high selectivity, stability and reliability, repeaters are widely applied to indoor signal distribution in small areas where signals are shielded due to the various materials used in building construction. They are also used to cover shadow areas outdoors. Such repeaters are very suitable to signal are available to support any Repeaters 3 optimization in densely populated urban areas. Figure 1 shows the applications of the repeaters. 4 the antenna. 2. Introduction This full duplex mobile communications repeater from JDTECK is the perfect solution for providing a wireless improvement in the cellular reception of a small and medium size house in the quickest time possible. It is designed to improve the call quality of an area by receiving, amplifying, filtering and re-transmitting the signals from the base station into a specified area via To maintain safe and specific output signal levels, this repeater has built-in signal oscillation detection circuits with color changing LEDs to indicate its environmental status. The Alarm LEDs located on the front of the unit(Downlink Alarm &Uplink Alarm) will change color from green to amber or red, (depending on the intensity) if the system detects signal oscillation in either band, or if the input signal is beyond a safe limit so as to avoid interference to the cellular network, the repeater will indicate this. This repeater also has an automatic gain control (AGC) feature which will reduce the output power of the repeater if oscillation is detected. This range can vary from 15-20dB depending on the model of your repeater. If the reduction in gain needed to take the unit out of alarm exceeds the range of the AGC, then the end user can make use of yet another feature of this repeater called manual gain control (MGC). This allows the end user to further reduce the output gain of the repeater by using the DIP switches on the front of the unit to manually attenuate (reduce) the repeaters output gain of either the uplink or downlink individually. This repeater is also equipped with an uplink sleep feature. It is activated after the repeater detects more than 5 mins of voice or data inactivity through the antenna. JDTECKs repeaters also feature a Network Safe / MUTE feature that automatically shuts-down the transmission side of the repeater to protect the cellular network if no adjustments are made to eliminate alarm readings on the repeaters LEDs. You will want to make sure the LEDs remain green at all times for optimum system performance. The main cause of signal oscillation is when any of the indoor antennas are too close in proximity to the outdoor antenna on the roof. Alarm LED status chart and recommended action:

Installation is very important 1. The repeaters main function is to improve weak RF signals to an area. 2. Selecting the appropriate accessories that are compatible with the frequency of for optimal system performance. A 700MHz Repeater needs to be used with accessories that supports the 700MHz band. In the same way, choosing accessories in the 1900MHz Band needs to go with a 1900MHz Repeater etc. For multi-
band repeaters, please ensure the peripheral components used supports all the frequencies needed. the repeater 3. The signal strength at the outdoor antenna directly affects the efficiency of the indoor coverage. Therefore it is very important to choose the location of the outdoor antenna carefully. With this in mind, it is not recommended that the donor antenna be installed in an attic or at the side of a single or double story building. 4. The repeater is a two-way (full duplex) signal amplifier. Therefore there needs to be proper isolation between the outdoor antenna and indoor antenna in order to avoid signal oscillation of the repeater. (Feedback) There needs to be more than 15dB of isolation above the repeaters gain. For example, if the repeater gain is 60dB, then you need 75dB of isolation between outdoor antenna and indoor antenna. 5. The repeater gain is adjustable for both the uplink / downlink individually. Depending on the environment, the end-user may need to adjust the repeater gain to achieve optimum performance and desired coverage. 6. The repeater is designed to amplify the input signal, filter it and retransmit it to the desired area via service antennas. In order to reach the best performance, the outdoor signal should be better than -80dBm, and not over +10dBm. If the outdoor signal is very weak, then a pre-amplifier may be used. 7. Calculating the Link budget before setting the repeater gain. Link budget calculation:
Outdoor signal strength Loss of accessories (cable, connectors, splitters, Directional Couplers, Path Loss) + Antenna gain (outdoor antenna, indoor antenna) + Repeater gain = Indoor signal strength. 8. For all cellular applications, you need to use 50 Ohm rated coax. Besides affecting voice quality, using any other impedance of coax will put an extra load on your repeater and shorten its life span. 7 Site Survey Cable Installation Link Budget Calculating 3.1 Installation Procedure Install Indoor Antennas Trouble Shooting Gain Adjustment Installation Planning Install Outdoor Antenna Install Repeater Signal Measurement Test for Call Quality 8 3.1 Installation Procedure Cont. Check the contents supplied. Identify a suitable location where you would like to mount the donor antenna on your roof or at an elevated location, free of any other antennas or immediate obstructions. Confirm this location has the best input signal from the cell tower or towers you would like to support. Ensure the location is properly isolated from any of the indoor antennas and at the same time, ensure the cable length supplied is sufficient to complete your installation. Install the donor antenna and route the coax to the proposed location for the indoor base unit. DO NOT COIL UP any excess coax you may have which include service loops. These are detrimental to cellular performance. Connect the indoor service antennas, coax and power supply. Power up the unit and monitor the LED status for errors. If the donor antenna used is not an Omni-directional antenna or the nearest cell tower location is not known at the time of system commissioning, then you may need to rotate the donor antenna until the best signal strength or call quality is achieved on your mobile device inside the building, while making sure the LEDs stay green on the repeater. We suggest getting someone to help rotate the donor antenna while you monitor both your mobile device and the LEDs on the repeater at the same time. If signal oscillation is between 1~4dB then the Alarm LED for the relevant band will turn amber. Please adjust the DL repeater gain till the LEDs turn green. (See attenuation adjustment) If the signal oscillation is between 10-15dB then the Alarm LED for the relevant band will turn red, and the respective circuit will then go into MUTE / Shutdown. This is as a result of not having enough isolation between the donor and service antennas or the input signal at the donor antenna is too strong. In this case attenuate the DL gain on the repeater and then match the UL gain to the same gain value. After each gain adjustment is made, quickly power cycle the repeater to ensure you are not trying to optimize the repeater while your ACG is active. (See attenuation settings for adjustments) 9 3.2 Antenna Installation and Coax Cable Wiring We do not recommend installing the donor antenna of your repeater system in the attic or at the side of a single or double story building. Doing so will greatly reduce the quality of the input signal from the cell tower. Also you increase the risk of signal oscillation occurring thus having to attenuate the output power of your repeater which reduces the coverage area. Do not install the donor antenna near high voltage power lines. Please take the necessary safety measures when working on heights. Do not mount near or in the path of other antennas or satellite dishes. It is recommended that you mount your donor antenna in a spot that is free of any immediate obstructions. Making use of a pole or mounting bracket is recommended for optimum antenna performance. 10 Frequency Alarm 1 3.3 Manual Gain Adjustment ~ UL / DL In order to meet and maintain safe environmental conditions for seamless network integration, this repeater is equipped with a dip switch assembly that allows you to manually control the Uplink / Downlink gain individually. The UL/DL attenuator control range is from 0dB to -31dB by 1dB increments in each band. There is a dip switch bank available for each frequency. Frequency Alarm 2 Frequency Alarm 3 DL Switches UL Switches DL Switches UL Switches DL Switches UL Switches The DIP Switch control method is described as below. Switches 1-5 represents DL adjustment & 6-10 represents UL adjustment. The default of UL/DL gain attenuator is at 0dB. (Full Power) Example of the DL & UL Attenuated by 4dB Note Switch Positions 11 Avoid putting more than a 5dB difference between the Uplink and Downlink. 3.3 Manual Gain Adjustment ~ UL / DL Cont. When do you adjust the Repeater Gain?
This repeater is equipped with an alarm feature that monitors the input gain. If the input gain is too high, the DL Alarm LED will change color from green to either amber or red indicating the intensity of the error. High input gain can occur if the donor antenna is in a location where the receive signal strength
(RSSI) from the cell tower is extremely good (-50dB or better) or if signal oscillation is taking place. Signal Oscillation is when the amplified signal from the indoor service antenna is being received back into the donor antenna outside. To determine what is the cause of your Alarm LED changing color you can disconnect the indoor antenna / service line from the INDOOR port of the repeater while the repeater is on. If the LED does not change to green, then your input signal from the cell tower is very strong. At this point you attenuate the DL gain by 1dB increments till the LEDs turns green again. Then you must match the same attenuation value to the UL set of switches. Since this repeater is equipped with an AGC function, it is important to determine if at the time you are adjusting your DIP switches, the ACG has not already been activated. To determine this, quickly power cycle the repeater (OFF then Back ON) after you have made a switch adjustment. If any of the Alarm LEDs take at least 10 sec to turn green, then AGC has been activated. At this point you want to add a little more attenuation to the respective circuit then power cycle the unit again. The aim is to have your LEDs all green within 5 sec of the repeater being turned on. After which you can connect the indoor antenna / service line again. If after reconnecting the indoor antenna or service line, the LED changes back to amber or red then signal oscillation is taking place. This is the result of your indoor and outdoor antennas being too close to each other and should therefore have more separation or continue to add more attenuation. When complete, try making some test calls throughout the desired area of coverage while monitoring the LEDs to see if it changes color. If you are showing strong signal strength but your calls are not going through, it could be that you need to attenuate your uplink gain a bit more. Keep in mind however that you do not want to have more than a 5dB difference between the uplink and downlink values for optimum system performance. We encourage you to call us if you are experiencing difficulty when commissioning your repeater system. We want to make sure you have seamless integration to the cellular network and optimal system performance.
