A 1-4 June 2003 NTUM30DA Installation & Service Manual Section 2 Installation 2-1 Introduction This section contains unpacking, inspection, and installation instructions and recommendations for the Model NTUM30DA Multi Channel Power Amplifier. Carefully read all material in this sec-
tion prior to equipment unpacking or installation. Also read and review the operating procedures in section 3 prior to installing the equipment. It is important that the licensee perform these tasks correctly and in good faith. If applicable, carefully read the appropriate parts of the Federal Com-
munications Commission (FCC) rules to determine how they apply to your installation. DON'T TAKE CHANCES WITH YOUR LICENSE. 2-2 Electrical Service Recommendations Powerwave Technologies recommends that proper AC line conditioning and surge suppression be provided on the primary AC input to the -48 Vdc power source. All electrical service should be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code, any applicable state or local codes, and good engineering practice. Special consideration should be given to lightning protection of all systems in view of the vulnerability of most transmitter sites to lightning. Lightning arrestors are recommended in the service entrance. Straight, short ground runs are recommended. The elec-
trical service must be well grounded. Each amplifier system should have its own circuit breaker, so a failure in one does not shut off the whole installation. Circuit breakers should be thermal type, capable of handling the maximum anticipated inrush current, in a load center with a master switch. 2-3 Unpacking & Inspection This equipment has been operated, tested and calibrated at the factory. Carefully open the con-
tainer(s) and remove the amplifier module(s). Retain all packing material that can be reassem-
bled in the event that the unit must be returned to the factory. Exercise care in handling equipment during inspection to prevent damage caused by rough or careless handling. CAUTION Visually inspect the amplifier module for damage that may have occurred during shipment. Check for evidence of water damage, bent or warped chassis, loose screws or nuts, or extrane-
ous packing material in the connector. If the equipment is damaged, a claim should be filed with the carrier once the extent of any damage is assessed. We cannot stress too strongly the impor-
tance of IMMEDIATE careful inspection of the equipment and the subsequent IMMEDIATE filing of the necessary claims against the carrier if necessary. If possible, inspect the equipment in the presence of the delivery person. If the equipment is damaged, the carrier is your first area of re-
course. If the equipment is damaged and must be returned to the factory, write or phone for a return authorization. Powerwave may not accept returns without a return authorization. Claims for loss or damage may not be withheld from any payment to Powerwave, nor may any payment due be withheld pending the outcome thereof. WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE FREIGHT CAR-

To perform the initial start-up, proceed as follows:
1. Verify that all input and output cables are properly connected, per section 2. CAUTION Before applying power, make sure that the input and output of the amplifier are prop-
erly terminated at 50 ohms. Do not operate the amplifier without a load attached. Re-
fer to table 1-1 for input power requirements. Excessive input power may damage the amplifier. The output coaxial cable between the amplifier and the antenna must be 50 ohm co-
axial cable. Use of any other cable will distort the output. NOTE 2. Turn on supply that provides -48 Vdc to the amplifier system. 3. Turn the amplifier front panel switch to On. The amplifier will run through built-in-test for a few seconds, and notify the BTS when the loops converge. The base station allows up to 30 seconds for this step to complete. 4. Turn on external exciter/transceiver and apply RF input signals. 044-05141 Rev. A Copyright Powerwave Technologies, Inc., June 2003. All rights reserved 3-1 June 2003 NTUM30DA Installation & Service Manual Section 4 Principles of Operation 4-1 Introduction This section contains a functional description of the multichannel power amplifier (MCPA). 4-2 RF Input Signal The maximum input power should not exceed the limits specified in table 1-1. 4-3 RF Output Load The load impedance should be as good as possible (1.5:1 or better) in the working band for good power transfer to the load. 4-4 Amplifier Functional Description The NTUM30DA amplifier (figures 1-1 and 4-1) is a linear, MCPA that operates in the 60 MHz frequency band from 1930 MHz to 1990 MHz with an instantaneous bandwidth of 20 MHz. The operating band is determined by the operating frequency selection(s) of the base station (refer to table 1-1). The amplifier produces 45 watts of output power when operated in mode 1 or 30 watts of output power when operated in mode 2. Each amplifier is a self-contained module and is func-
tionally independent of any other amplifier module(s) in the system. Each amplifier module has an alarm board that monitors the amplifier performance. If a failure or fault occurs in an amplifier module, it is transmitted to the host system via an RS-485 interface. The amplifier is compliant to the requirements of FCC rules with respect to spurious emissions
(see table 1-1). Constant gain is maintained by continuously comparing active paths with passive references, and correcting for small variations through the RF feedback controls. All gain varia-
tions, for example those due to temperature, are reduced to the passive reference variations. The amplifier module is comprised of:
An input amplifier 1st Loop Phase & Gain A driver amplifier A main amplifier A multifunction board 4-4.1 Input Amplifier RF is fed to the input amplifier, which consists of an isolator at the input, bandpass filter, voltage variable attenuators (VVA), and phase shifters for gain control and phase sweeping functions. The circuits in this section of the amplifier are controlled by a microprocessor on the Multifunction board. At its output, the input amplifier splits the signal to the 1st Loop Phase and Gain circuit, and the carrier cancellation circuit. 4-4.2 1st Loop Phase & Gain The 1st Loop Phase & Gain circuit is a predistortion amplifier. The input signal is predistorted such that it linearizes the output of the main amp at the rated output power of the MCPA. It also contains the main loop VVAs and phase shifters. All the predistortion voltages and loop voltages are controlled by a microprocessor. 044-05141 Rev. A Copyright Powerwave Technologies, Inc., June 2003. All rights reserved 4-1 June 2003 NTUM30DA Installation & Service Manual 4-4.3 Driver Amplifier The driver amplifier consists of two stages of class AB amplification, which provide the approxi-
mately 40% of the gain in the 60 MHz frequency band from 1930 MHz to 1990 MHz. 4-4.4 Main Amplifier The main amplifier employs two class AB amplification stages for maximum efficiency. It provides approximately 40% of the gain in the 60 MHz frequency band. The output from the main amplifier is typically higher than the rated output power of the MCPA, to allow for losses associated with the components in the remaining RF path. The RF signals are then applied to a delay line and directional coupler, where the distortion products are cancelled out and the amplifier power per-
formance is monitored. 4-4.5 Multifunction Board The multifunction board consists of feed forward loop control and alarm circuits. The MCPA com-
municates to the host system through the multifunction board, which gathers the status informa-
tion of the amplifier and reports to the host system via the RS-485 interface when instructed. It also protects the MCPA from adverse conditions such as overpower, input overdrive, over-
voltage, etc. A microprocessor on the multifunction board also controls two loops in the feed-
forward system. 1st Loop Phase & Gain Driver Main Amp

The amplifier generates all the required voltages internally from the main source. 4-7 Amplifier Alarms 4-7.1 Minor Alarms When a minor alarm condition occurs, the alarm is latched into a minor alarm condition. The am-
plifier alarm state is read by the BTS the next time the amplifier is poled by the BTS. After the alarm status is sent the minor alarm register is cleared, unless the alarm condition still exists. If the amplifier receives a Enable Command or Clear Alarms Command, all minor alarms will be cleared. If the amplifier is disabled, all minor alarms are also cleared. Minor alarms do not directly affect amplifier functionality.

During power-up, the BTS waits for 30 seconds to allow the 1st Loop to lock. When the main amplifier is first turned on, the Main Loop Cancellation Alarm ON is on until the loops converge. The BTS allows 30 seconds for the alarm to clear after putting the amplifier into Operational mode before reporting the alarm. 044-05141 Rev. A Copyright Powerwave Technologies, Inc., June 2003. All rights reserved 4-3 June 2003 NTUM30DA Installation & Service Manual 4-7.1.2 Error Loop Cancellation Alarm (2nd Loop Alarm) During normal operation, if the 2nd Loop is not locked for 30 seconds a Error Loop Cancellation Alarm is declared. During power-up, the BTS waits for 30 seconds to allow the 2nd Loop to lock. When the error amplifier is first turned on, the Error Loop Cancellation Alarm ON status is on until the loops converge. The BTS allows 30 seconds for the alarm to clear after putting the amplifier into Operational mode before reporting the alarm. Detected loss of pilot signal with the error amplifier on, also leads to an Error Loop Cancellation Alarm. 4-7.1.3 Gain Alarm The gain alarm is caused by either of the following conditions:
No output power with a nominal input power.
(Pin > -3.8 dBm and Pout < 25 dBm for five seconds. Pin > +2.5 dB for five seconds. 4-7.1.4 Partial Failure of Main Amplifier Alarm (Transistor/Device Fail) A sensor detects a main or error amplifier transistor failure. A transistor failure is detected as fol-
lows:
When the main and error amplifiers are first turned on and converged, the Main VVA and Er-
ror VVA convergence points are compared to the Default Main VVA and Default Error VVA values (with temperature compensation). If either of the VVAs is significantly lower than its default value, the Partial Failure of Main Amplifier alarm is set. After the above test is performed, the Main VVA and Error VVA are continually monitored. If the Main VVA or Error VVA significantly drop then the Partial Failure of Main Amplifier alarm is set. 4-7.1.5 Over Temperature Warning Alarm The MCPA will alarm if the temperature exceeds the normal operation temperature threshold
(90C internal temperature sensor) for five seconds. This threshold is a few degrees below the Over Temperature Shutdown Alarm. 4-7.1.6 Power Supply Warning Alarm The MCPA monitors the non-converter voltages, 15V, 5V and -5V power supply voltages and alarms when of any of these DC voltages fail for at least five seconds. The normal operating range for these voltages is: 15V + 1.5V, 5V + 0.5V and 5V + 0.5. 4-7.1.7 High DC Power Consumption Warning Alarm If input DC power exceeds 375W in Mode 1 or 300W in Mode 2, for five seconds, the High DC Power Consumption Warning Alarm is set. 044-05141 Rev.

plifier alarm state is read by the BTS the next time the amplifier is poled by the BTS. After the alarm status is sent the major alarm register is not cleared. If the amplifier receives a Enable Command or Clear Alarms Command, all major alarms will be cleared. If the amplifier is dis-
abled, all major alarms are also cleared. Major alarms cause the amplifier to enter a STANDBY state, and the transceiver(s) associated with the amplifier will be off-the-air. The error amplifier and main amplifier are turned off.
