PREAMBLE
In cellular systems, repeaters are used to extend the coverage of a base station in
regions where, due to topological or structural conditions, weak field strengths
disable communication. MIKOM is a leading manufacturer of repeaters, providing
excellent electrical characteristics. The repeaters are light-weight and easy to install.
MIKOM repeaters provide a preferred solution for extended cellular coverage.
This repeater has been built using only highly reliable materials. A comprehensive
quality assurance has been carried out on all fabrication steps, ensuring constant
quality of the product. Every repeater leaves the factory only after a thorough final
acceptance test, accompanied by a test certificate, which guarantees perfect
function.
Any intervention must be carried out by authorised persons only. If technical
assistance for the repeater MR303D Varia is needed, contact the local sales office
(see List of international sales offices on the following page) or contact MIKOM
directly at the following address:

1 INTRODUCTION
Cellular telephone systems transmit signals in two directions between base stations
and mobile telephones within the signal coverage area.
If weak signal transmissions occur within the coverage area due to indoor
applications, topological conditions or distance from the transmitter, a repeater is
used to extend transmission range. In the downlink path, the repeater picks up the
signal from a donor antenna of an existing cell, amplifies and re-transmits it into the
required dark spot. In the uplink direction, the repeater receives signals from mobile
stations present in its coverage area and re-transmits them to the corresponding
base station.
1.1 The MR303D Varia
The repeater MR303D Varia is a bi-directional amplifier with adjustable RFbandwidth. The first and the last channel of the transmission bandwidth can be set
manually by means of rotary switches. The repeater has been designed for
applications in medium sized rooms such as suites, offices and basements. A
quality connection with a mobile phone can usually not be established in these
rooms.
The repeater is equipped with a connector for an external receiving/transmitting
antenna which provides the RF connection to the mobile. Connection to the BTS can
be established via an outdoor antenna. Other components of the D.I.C.E. COAX
system can also be connected to the repeater.
The final amplifiers are protected by individual level limiters, which allow the mobile
unit to be operated in close proximity to the repeater. Third order intermodulation
products are kept below the CEPT limit of -36 dBm constantly, even if the repeater
receives the signals of more than one mobile unit.

1.2 Functional Description
The MR303D Varia is a repeater operating in the GSM900 frequency range. The
operation principle for uplink and downlink is depicted in the following block
diagram:
figure 1-1 Block diagram
1.3 Downlink
Downlink signals are received by the external antenna and fed to the duplexer. The
duplexer is the frequency separation unit that splits and recombines uplink (UL) and
downlink (DL).
After processing through the duplexer the signals are transferred to a pre-amplifier
and then enter the attenuation selection. The gain of the repeater can be set by
introducing attenuation into the amplifier chain (see chapter 3.2 Setting the
Attenuation). Then the signals are relayed to a mixer. The mixer converts the signals
down to an intermediate frequency (IF). An IF filter provides the selectivity of the
repeater. After the IF filter the signals are reconverted to the original frequency again
with another mixer. A final amplifier amplifies the signal once again to the required
output power.
After amplification a power detection feature, called automatic level control (ALC),
measures the output power and controls the gain. The ALC keeps intermodulations
below - 36 dBm. Finally, the signals are supplied to the antenna output.

1.4 Uplink
The uplink signals are received by the antenna and fed into the repeater where a
pre-selection of the frequency is made. The signals are then converted down to IF by
means of a mixer and an IF filter provides the selectivity against other frequencies.
After the re-conversion the signals are amplified in an amplifier that provides the
output power. The signals are then fed to the antenna via the duplexer.
In this link, an ALC and an automatic power adjust circuit (APAC) is provided. APAC
limits the output power if two carriers are present at the one UL input. This again
keeps intermodulations to the desired limit. The repeaters with Id.-Nos. 152797 &
154595 provide an attenuation selection unit, which allows the gain to be set on UL
and DL -simultaneously, but not separately- by introducing attenuation into the
amplifier chain. (See chapter 3.2 Setting the Attenuation).
In the MR303D the bandwidth of the RF modules can be set within the GSM900
band to a desired value with rotary-switches on the outside of the modules. To set a
defined bandwidth, the start channel, as well as the stop channel must be adjusted
with the rotary-switches. (See chapter 3.1 Adjusting the Frequency).

2 FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
2.1 Configuration of the Connectors
figure 2-1 Configuration of the connectors
2.1.1 RF Connectors
The RF connectors (SMA female) are situated on both sides of the repeater. These
ports must be connected to the RF cables of the external antennas to/from the BTS
and to/from the mobiles.

User’s Manual for Repeater MR303D Varia
2.1.2 Power supply
The socket for the DC supply is located next to the RF connector to/from the BTS.
Power supply voltage is 6.7 Vdc, current is 1.6 A typ for Id.-No.: 152796 and 2.5 A
for Id.-Nos.: 152797 & 154595.
There are two possibilities to provide the MR303D Varia with power:
Ø Use external power supply and connection to the DC socket of the repeater. (Use
only the power supply that is delivered with the unit).
Or:
Ø Bias the MR303D Varia via the cable to the RF port to/from BTS. Ensure that the
correct voltage is fed into the repeater.
Note:
The DC socket of the MR303D Varia must not be connected if the
bias via RF cable is carried out.
2.2 Configuration of the LEDs
The LED to the left (DC alarm) can show green or red light:
Ø Green indicates the normal operation of the repeater. Power is present and the
current consumption of the unit is within the specifications.
Ø Red indicates that the current consumption of the repeater is not within defined
limits and that the repeater might not work properly. If the LED is off, the
MR303D Varia does not receive any DC power.
The right hand LED is the ALC/APAC alarm LED:
Ø LED “on” indicates that the input power received by the repeater is too high.
The output power of the repeater must be limited. This can be either done by the UL
ALC or APAC, or the DL ALC. Limitation of power ensures that the final stage is not
overdriven and that intermodulations are kept below the CEPT limits (- 36 dBm).

2.3 Mechanical Installation
Install the MR303D Varia according to the directions provided with the wall mounting
sheet. The unit can be mounted horizontally or vertically. The alarm LEDs must point
downwards (horizontal mounting) or to the left-hand side (vertical mounting). The
unit has a weight of approximately 1.6 kg.

2.4 Electrical Installation
F Note:
Electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with the
safety regulations of the local authorities. Due to safety reasons
electrical installation must be performed by qualified personnel
only.
Connection of the cables to/from the BTS and connection of power supply:
The cable to the external antenna to/from the BTS and the SMA-connector must be
ordered separately if reqired.
If the cable is part of the delivery, adjust the cable to a suitable length and connect
the SMA-connector.
Cut the antenna cable to the required
length. Strip the jacket at the cut end to the
length of 14 mm, the copper braiding
carefully to 8 mm and the inner insulation to
10 mm.
Place the split taper socket over the cable.
Insert the inner conductor into the opening
at the rear of the SMA pin. Slot the pin and
cable into the opening at the rear of the
SMA connector. Carefully push the copper
braiding over the knurled end of the
connector. Take care that none of the wires
of the copper braiding contact the inner
conductor. Pull the split taper socket over
the cable up to the base of the SMAconnector. Complete the connection by
crimping the split taper socket with crimping
pliers.

3.2 Setting the Attenuation
(Id.-Nos. 152797 & 154595 only)
The attenuation can be set by means of a rotary switch, which is located in the
centre of the repeater. Use a small screw driver to turn the switch carefully to the
position for the required attenuation. The label below the rotary switch shows the
possible positions and the corresponding values of the attenuation.
