PRISM SYSTEM OVERVIEW
ADC’s FlexWave® Prism is a com pact radio head utilized for precision and m acro
gap coverage, which supports up t o four frequency bands, while delivering
high- perform ance coverage wit h end- t o-end m anagem ent. FlexWave Prism is
ideal for enhancing outdoor and indoor coverage in urban, suburban, canyons,
tunnels, cam puses, st adium s and other public venues.
A Prism syst em offers the following feat ures:
•ADC’s patent ed RF- over- fiber transport elim inates installation-dependent gain
or fiber length adjust m ents
•I m proved m anageabilit y for inst allation and upgrades
•Sm aller size t o ease placem ent and zoning approvals
•4G readiness wit h Four Band rem ot e, which is ideal for incorporating 2G and
3G services with needs of 4G technologies such as LTE
•The unique capabilit y t o support digit al RF as well as baseband com patibilit y
into a single fiber pair and rem ote radiating point
•Support for m illim eter wave backhaul
•Wit h its unique use of wideband digit al RF transport , FlexWave Prism delivers
reliable and consist ent perform ance in all environm ents. Signals are not
affected by reflect ion, dispersion, or frequency att enuation over fiber.
FlexWave Prism delivers a reliable signal at every rem ot e location.
The ADC FlexWave Prism fam ily of products is a Dist ribut ed Antenna Syst em
( DAS) that provides ADC’s patented t echnology—bidirect ional t r ansport of
digit ized RF spect rum over fiber. The high- speed digitalizat ion of a wideband
portion of spectrum allows for transport of RF signals over extended distances,
wit hout the RF degradation that norm ally result s when analog syst em s are
im pact ed by opt ical effects. The basic function of the FlexWave Prism plat form is
to transport via fiber optic cable RF signals from a Base Transceiver Stat ion ( BTS)
to an ant enna int erface allowing com m unication t o a m obile device. Mult iple BTS
com m unication paths are allowed over a single Prism syst em .
A very basic Prism syst em consist s of a Host Unit (Host) and a Prism Rem ote Unit
( PRU) .
•The Host is a t hree rack unit high chassis wit h m ultiple cards t hat m ount s in a
st andard equipm ent rack.
•The PRU consists of m ult iple elect ronic and optical m odules m ounted in an
outdoor enclosure.
On an optional basis, the Prism system supports reverse path diversity. I n
addit ion, various accessory item s such as a passive Wavelength Division

FIBER OPTIC TRANSPORT
I n a FlexWave Prism syst em , each BTS provides the RF channel inputs and out puts
for a designated sector. Each Host m ay be interfaced wit h one or m ore Base
Transceiver Stat ion ( BTS) .
On the forward path, the Host receives Analog RF signals from the BTS, digitizes
the designat ed RF bands, and then t ransport s them over single-m ode fiber to up
to 8 Rem ot e Unit s. The Rem ot e Unit ( s) receives the digitized spect rum from the
Host and converts t he spect rum back into an analog RF signal t o be dist ribut ed via
an ext ernally m ount ed ant enna system .
On the reverse pat h, the Rem ot e Unit digitizes t he designated RF spectrum and
digit ally transport s it over single m ode fiber or Millim eter Wave ( MMW) to the
Host . The Host receives the digitized RF signals from the Rem ot e Unit and converts
them back to Analog RF for the BTS.
I n a t ypical Prism syst em the Host is connect ed t o t he Rem ote using t wo
single- m ode opt ical fibers. One fiber is used to transport t he forw ard pa t h optical
signal and a second fiber is used to t ransport the r everse pat h optical signal.
Because the opt ical signal is digit al, t he input and output RF signal levels at t he
Host or the Rem ot e are not dependent on t he level of t he opt ical signal or the
lengt h of the opt ical fiber. A diagram of the st andard fiber opt ic transport syst em
for both a non- diversity and diversity system is shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6. Standard Fiber Optic Transport Application
The m axim um lengt h of t he opt ical links is dependent on t he loss specifications of
the optical fiber and the losses im posed by the various connectors and splices. The
syst em provides an opt ical budget of 2 5 dB (t ypical) when used wit h 9/ 125
single- m ode fiber. There m ust be at least 10 dB of optical loss t o prevent
over- driving and possible dam age t o t he opt ical receiver.
NOTE: The RF modulation used determines the maximum fiber length between the Host and
Remote units, which is dependent on how much delay that modulation type will handle.

Serialized RF (SeRF) Digital Protocol
The SeRF ( Serialized RF) digital protocol consist s of digit ized RF, Fast Et hernet,
and Host to Rem ot e com m unicat ion and m anagem ent. The prot ocol provides you
wit h full access to the 100BASE- T ( Ethernet) connect ion between the Host and
each Rem ote, and the abilit y t o provision t he RF spect rum of t he DARTs. The
digit ized RF portion of t he SeRF protocol is divided into 12 t im eslots, wit h each
tim eslot representing roughly 5 MHz of digit ized RF spectrum . Ut ilizing the full 12
tim eslots yields between 60 and 75 MHz of tot al digitized RF on each SeRF Small
Form - Fact or Pluggable (SFP) laser connect ion ( single fiber pair) .
The available RF bandwidt h per tim eslot is shown in Table 5.
For exam ple, a user who wishes t o t ransport PCS A block, Cellular A, and AWS B
block, t he system would require the following:
PCS A 15MHz, 3 t im eslots
Cellular A 10MHz, 2 t im eslots
AWS B 10MHz, 2 tim eslots
__________________________
Tot al = 35MHz, 7 tim eslots
Each fiber pair supports 12 tim eslot s, or up t o 75 MHz of bandwidth. Table 5 shows
the m axim um bandwidt h versus t he num ber of t im eslots.
I f m ore than 70 MHz is required per Rem ote, up t o t hree additional fiber pairs can
be brought to the Rem ote to get up t o up to 280MHz per Remot e (or 300MHz if all
four are GSM- 1800).

Simulcast Groups
Sim ulcast com bining occurs when m ore t han one Rem ot e DART is linked t o t he
sam e Host DART. The gains of the reverse signals are reduced before sum m at ion
to prevent over-flow when the digit al signals are added toget her. This sim ulcast
gain reduct ion is accom plished as a function of the num ber of Rem ot e DARTs
linked t o the Host DART ( N) and the select ed Reverse Gain Mode:
•Mode 1 (Noise Floor Matching)—uses an algorit hm t hat norm alizes t he noise floor of
all Rem ote Unit s.
•Mode 2 (Legacy Prism/URH)—reduces the gain by 20* log10( N).
•Mode 1 (Noise Floor Matching) uses an algorit hm that norm alizes the noise floor
of all Rem ot e Unit s.
•Mode 2 (Legacy Prism/URH)—reduces the gain by 20* log10(N) .
Table 6 illustrates gain reduction for Mode 1 and Mode 2.
Sim ulcast groups are rest ricted t o using the sam e tim eslots on the fibers t o each
Rem ote. For exam ple, if t he first link established in a sim ulcast group is using
tim eslots 1- 3 on a fiber for the PCS A passband, t im eslots 1-3 m ust be used for
that passband on each of the ot her Rem ot es in the sim ulcast group. I f tim eslots
1-3 are not available on a Rem ot e's fiber, t he Rem ote cannot be added t o t he
sim ulcast group.
To m inim ize t im eslot conflicts, sim ulcast groups should be configured before other
passbands. I f a conflict occurs while at t em pt ing to link a DART, an error m essage
displays indicat ing t hat the DART linking failed. The DART using t he conflicting
tim eslots m ust be unlinked to allow the DART in the sim ulcast group to be linked.

Use of Multi Fibers
The EMS provides t he ability to install “ m ulti fibers” bet ween a Host and Rem ote.
This m eans that, in addition t o the m inim um single fiber pair ( RX and TX) in t he
Host to Rem ote connection, one or m ore additional fiber pairs are inst alled. This
is done to increase the bandwidt h or num ber of t im eslots between t he Host and
Rem ote.
Each fiber pair can handle approxim at ely 75 MHz of RF bandwidth and each fiber
is capable of supporting 12 tim eslots, as described in “ DART Modules” on page 24.
When a Host DART is linked t o a Rem ote DART in a m ulti- fibers configuration, the
EMS uses t he first fiber ( in num erical order) on which the required num ber of
tim eslots is available for the passband being linked. The EMS will not divide up t he
tim eslots between t wo fibers. So, for exam ple, if t he passband requires eight
tim eslots, and only six tim eslots are available on t he first fiber, the EMS will bypass
the first fiber and assign all eight t im eslots t o t he second fiber, leaving four
tim eslots unused on the second fiber.

E911 Support
The DART type determ ines the m axim um num ber of links, where there can be up
up to 8 Classic DARTs or Single SuperDARTs that support 35MHz each, or up to 4
Dual SuperDARTs that support up to 75MHz each.
E911 support m ay be achieved by using a configuration sim ilar to t he one shown
in Figure 14. Remot e sim ulcast ing in t his configuration requires analog splitt ing
and com bining to and from the individual Host DARTs. External analog
split t ing/ com bining ensures that the E911 system receives uplink signals from
each Rem ote location before t hey are com bined wit h uplink signals from the ot her
Rem otes in the sim ulcast.
Figure 14. 8:1 Analog Simulcast U-TDoA E911 Support Diagram
NOTE: When external E911 equipment is required, simulcasting must be accomplished via
external RF splitting and combining. The DARTs will then be in a point-to-point
configuration, as opposed to point-to-multipoint.
