Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 135 October 23, 2003 Appendix E: Interference Sweep Procedure Before You Start The instructions in this document assume the Field Engineer is at the Base Station site and that the BTS and RFS have not yet been installed. Required Equipment You will need the following equipment to perform the Interference Sweep: ?? HP4404B Spectrum Analyzer or equivalent. An equivalent analyzer must have the following: - Screen Save abilities - Max-hold function - Peak search - Ability to operate in the required frequency range ?? Omni or Directional Antenna for the given frequency range The directional antenna should have a gain of > 9 dBi. ?? Cavity Filter Pass band should cover the frequency range. It must have good out-of-band rejection so the LNA is not jammed by high power AMP, PCS, or TV signals. ?? LNA Module Gain > 21dB, NF < 7dB, for frequency range ?? Various SMA and N-Type adapters ?? Various RF cables to connect to Antenna and to test equipment Initial Configuration The set-up shown in Figure E1 and the information below are for the initial configuration. It gives you a starting point for this procedure. During the later steps, this configuration will change.

Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Navini Networks, Inc. 136 Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) October 23, 2003 Figure E1: Initial Configuration Step 1. Configure test equipment as shown in Figure E1. Step 2. Program the initial Spectrum Analyzer settings, per the following: A. Resolution Bandwidth= 100KHz B. Video Bandwidth = 100KHz C. Attenuation = 0db D. Ref level = -10db E. Sweep time = auto F. Detector mode = positive peak G. Frequency = will be determined at each point during the procedure. Step 3. Set the frequency sweep range per the following. A. 2.4GHz = sweep for ranges 2.390GHz to 2.5GHz B. 2.6GHz = sweep for ranges 2.596GHz to 2.644GHz Interference Sweep Procedure The following information applies to both Panel and Omni antennas. It guides you through the steps to capture data required for the interference study. The number of steps varies depending on the type of antenna you are using and the frequency band you are investigating. If you are using an omni antenna to perform this procedure, only one pass is required. If a directional antenna is used, the number of passes through the procedure is determined by the beamwidth of the antenna. When using a directional antenna to pick up the interference, try to change the angle or downtilt to face a potential interference source such as a tower or a more populated area. A directional antenna is used to determine the location of the source that is generating the interference. The beamwidth of the directional antenna determines the number of directions that you need to sweep. For example, if the beamwidth of the directional antenna is 90 degrees, then four passes of the procedure are necessary. Whereas, an antenna with a 30-degree beamwidth requires 12 sets of AntennaSpectrumAnalyzerCavityFilter LNAModuleFigure 1: Initial ConfigurationDCPowered

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 137 October 23, 2003 sweeps to cover the same 360 degree area. The smaller beamwidth requires more sweeps but gives you greater accuracy in determining the source of the interfering signal. On each pass the directional antenna is moved per the beamwidth. Refer to Figure E2. With both types of antennas, try to determine the polarization of the interfering signals during each sweep. To do this, flip the antenna 90 degrees. All measurements that are captured are with the antenna in the vertical polarization position. The frequency band to be investigated is determined by the range of the BTS and RFS that is purchased by a customer. The 2.6GHz MMDS band is a licensed band, and the customer purchasing the equipment will have a license for a given 6MHz channel. The 2.4GHz band is an unlicensed frequency range that is open for many applications. The objective for the 2.4GHz sweeps is to find a 5MHz range that is the clearest of any interference. Figure E2: 90 Degree Directional Sweep The 2.6GHz sweeps are done to verify that there is not another carrier infringing on the given licensed channel. If you are performing the sweeps for a licensed 2.6GHz channel, it will greatly reduce the number of steps that you will need to perform. For a 2.6GHz system you only need to look at three channels for the spectrum. You will sweep the licensed channel as well as the channels above and below the licensed band. For example: If you have an E3 license (2.620GHz – 2.626GHz), you will sweep E3 plus F2 (2.614GHz-2.620GHz) and F3 (2.626GHz – 2.632GHz). 90DEGREES90DEGREES90DEGREES90DEGREESTESTANTENNAPOSITION 1TESTANTENNAPOSITION 2TESTANTENNAPOSITION 3TESTANTENNAPOSITION 4

Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Navini Networks, Inc. 138 Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) October 23, 2003 You will only need the Max-hold portion of the procedure for 2.6GHz systems. Max-hold The Max-hold portion of the procedure is to be used for both unlicensed and licensed systems. Step 1. If using a directional antenna, check the direction of the antenna with a compass. Record the results. Step 2. Set the Start Frequency to 2.390GHz for a 2.4GHz system and to 2.595GHz for a 2.6GHz system. Step 3. Set the Stop Frequency to 2.5GHz for a 2.4GHz system and to 2.645GHz for a 2.6GHz system. Step 4. Replace the antenna with a terminator to get a noise floor level. Save a screen capture. Step 5. Turn on the Max-hold feature and acquire the signal for two minutes. Save a screen capture. Step 6. Run Single Sweep two times, saving the screen captures for both sweeps. This gives a reference for the worst case that is shown with the Max-hold in Step 5. Time can be saved on this step if the Spectrum Analyzer is equipped with a dual trace option. Turn Trace 2 on constant sweep and Trace 1 on Max-hold. After the Max-hold has acquired a signal for two minutes, press the single sweep. Save the screen capture. Refer to Figure E3, Max-hold Screen Capture. Step 7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 with the following Start and Stop frequencies. 2.4GHz Band 2.6GHz Band Start Stop Channel Start Stop 2.4GHz 2.45GHz E1 2.596GHz 2.602GHz 2.45GHz 2.5GHz F1 2.602GHz 2.608GHz 2.4GHz 2.41GHz E2 2.608GHz 2.614GHz 2.41GHz 2.42GHz F2 2.614GHz 2.62GHz 2.42GHz 2.43GHz E3 2.62GHz 2.626GHz 2.43GHz 2.44GHz F3 2.626GHz 2.632GHz 2.44GHz 2.45GHz E4 2.632GHz 2.638GHz 2.45GHz 2.46GHz F4 2.638GHz 2.644GHz 2.46GHz 2.47GHz 2.47GHz 2.48GHz 2.48GHz 2.49GHz Figure E3: Max-hold Screen Capture

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 139 October 23, 2003 Time Domain The Time Domain portion of the procedure is for unlicensed systems only. Step 1. Set the Center Frequency to 2.4025GHz. Set the Resolution Bandwidth to 5 MHz. Step 2. Set the Video Bandwidth to 1MHz. Step 3. Set the Sweep Time to 40 ms. Step 4. Set the Span to 0 Hz. Step 5. Replace the antenna with a terminator to get a noise floor level. Save a screen capture. Step 6. Set the display line to the noise floor level. The display line needs to stay on for all of the following sweeps. This display line is used for a reference point and should be set with the LNA powered on. Step 7. Run the Single Sweep approximately 50 times and determine how often the interference occurs. Save a screen capture of one worst case and one typical. See Figure E4, Time Domain Screen Capture. Step 8. Set the Sweep Time to 400 ms, and repeat Step 7. Step 9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 for an offset of 5MHz up to 24875MHz for 2.4 systems.

Figure F5 shows the icon in the background. Figure F5: Data Logger Step 2. Select the desired Ethernet adapter in the pop-up window. Step 3. Starting in the upper left corner of the program screen, set the date and time for the application to start its measurement interval. If the date and time set are earlier than the current time, logging will begin immediately. Step 4. If the measurement needs to be repetitive, determine the interval between measurements by selecting the repeat box and entering the time interval (Figure F6). Figure F6: Measurement Interval

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 145 October 23, 2003 Step 5. Select the frequencies to be measured. a. There are 3 frequency band selections. By default two are not available until selected by clicking on the white checkboxes to the right of each. b. If you select more than one band, it is best if you put in some delay between each band’s measurements, as mentioned in Step 6 below. Step 6. If more than one frequency band has been selected, choose the delay to be used between each band’s measurements. You can use the scroll bar or just type in the interval. Step 7. Select the number of frames for Gain Adjust. This allows the system to calculate the Modem’s receiver sensitivity. Step 8. Select the number of frames to be stored for analysis. The same number will be captured for each frequency band if more than one is selected. Step 9. Ensure antenna orientation is selected properly. It takes about 1 second to log one frame of data. Therefore: Elapsed time = #antSelected ? [(number_of_gain_adj Frames) ? n + (Freq_Range/2) ? #of_framesToLog + (Freq_Range/2) ? delayBetweenFreqs] Where n is the number of gain adjustment loops. Up to 10 are possible if the received signal varies to a great extent in amplitude from frame to frame. Step 10. Select the Start button. Step 11. Enter in the desired Site Name in the pop-up window, and press Enter to start the measurements. Step 12. To stop the measurement, select the Abort button. Step 13. PC and Test operation should be validated every 3-4 hours for working order. To Verify the Data Step 1. Click the Verify Data button. The screen shown in Figure F7 appears.

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 165 October 23, 2003 Appendix L: Antenna Power & Cable Selection Overview This section provides formulas and data that are necessary inputs for determining the right cable to be measured, cut, and installed. There are 3 types of cables that are part of the Base Station installation: antenna cables, calibration (cal) cable, and data/power cable. The antenna cables are the eight cables that carry amplified RF signals. They run between the RF/PA cards and the 8 antenna elements. The calibration (cal) cable is a single RF coaxial cable that provides an RF feedback path for calibrating the system. It runs between the backplane of the digital shelf and the RFS. The data/power cable may or may not be a separate cable from the cal cable. It is possible to use different types of cable with different loss factors for the antenna cables and cal cable. The formulas presented in this section call for either an antenna cable loss or a cal cable loss. Most applications deploy the same cable type for both the antenna and cal cables. To determine the type of cable and acceptable loss of that cable for a site, the operating transmit and receive range must be known. This is commonly referred to as the maximum transmit output power and the receiver sensitivity range. The operating transmit power and receive range should have been identified during the site survey, or they may be based on regulatory compliance. Determining the cable type and acceptable loss for a site are typically driven by two goals: (1) Which is the least expensive cable; and (2) Which has the higher (normally) loss. Whether or not the goals are achieved is determined by the output power. For example, the maximum transmit output power for a 2.6 Base Station might be given as +30dBm, or 1 Watt, to the antenna. An example of receiver sensitivity for a 2.6 system would be given as – 80 to –90 dBm. In addition to cable power loss, other types of loss have to be factored - for example, the calibration board. The calibration board is part of the RFS that samples the energy being transmitted from or received by the 8 antenna elements and combines that energy which is used when performing a calibration on the Base Station. This loss, plus cable loss and other types of loss in the equipment are called out in the following procedure. Procedure Read and follow the 7 steps/formulas below, in the order shown, to determine the resulting PA/RFS output power and desired transmit and receive calibration range for the type of Base Station you will be installing. Refer to Tables L1 and L2 to complete the steps. Table L1 provides Base Station operating parameters based on system type (2.3, 2.4, etc.), as well as other variables. Table L2 provides cable attenuation data. Before you begin, read through the steps/formulas, notes, and Table L1 in detail. Refer to the column letters at the top of Table L1 to locate the appropriate values requested in some of the formulas. Note that step/formula 1 contains a sub-procedure for determining antenna cable loss using Table L2.

If outside the U.S., as a precaution contact Navini Technical Support (Engineering) for sign-off. The value input cannot be more than the value shown in Column B. 2This note pertains to Step/Formula 1: BTS_Loss is either (a) loss with a filter - i.e., if operating in the U.S. or other market that requires a filter, or (b) loss with a bypass cable. The first number (+1) is the correct value if a standard filter is used. The second number (0.4) is the correct value if a bypass cable is used. In Column D, for a 2.3 GHz system the values are the same for both the 8-carrier and the 10-carrier systems. 3Min loss in Cal Board is 27 dB. Max loss in Cal Board is 31 dB. 4In the EMS the backplane loss will show 5.0 as default. Actual measured loss will be indicated on the back of the chassis.

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 175 October 23, 2003 Appendix N: Install Connectors on Cables Reference Chapter 1, Page 8 “Regulatory Information” requirements. The following article, written by Lou Caruso of Times Microwave Systems, appears in Volume 8 Issue 5, 2000 of Telecom Exchange. “Among the keys to success in any wireless system are the quality and reliability of the connector installations on the coaxial cable transmission lines. And it naturally follows that the more difficult the connectors are to install, the lower the likelihood that they will be installed correctly thus adversely affecting the quality and reliability of the entire system. Traditional connectors require the pin contact to be soldered to the center conductor of the coax cable. Unfortunately, when RF transmission lines are installed outdoors as is often the case, weather conditions may not be conducive to using soldering equipment. Wind, rain and snow all can make soldering difficult if not impossible. If electrical power isn’t available, gas or butane fired soldering equipment may be the only recourse and these devices typically do not generate as much heat as electrically powered devices. Consequently, they may not do as good of a job. The physical handling of the cable, connector pin, butane torch and solder can also be tricky (not enough hands!), especially if there’s only one person doing the installation. For indoor installations, such as distributed antenna systems in buildings, the installer may be working in cramped spaces, on a ladder and in low-light conditions. How can these issues be overcome to ensure a reliable connector installation and proper system performance? Simplicity is the key. The connector installation process can be simplified with the use of non-solder connectors and the correct installation tools. We have designed non-solder connectors to work with our LMR? low-loss flexible 50-Ohm coaxial cables. These connectors may be installed under all field installation conditions, because they use either silver or gold plated copper-beryllium spring finger contacts that make positive contact with the center conductor and do not require soldering. Small cable sizes, LMR-400 (3/8”) and LMR-600 (1/2”), require a crimp-style contact attachment ring. When the cable is larger, the LMR-900-DB (5/8”) for example, a larger clamp method of attachment is needed. Interfaces available include 7-16DIN, N, TNC and reverse polarity TNC connectors. Even though using non-solder connectors is simpler, there are still certain techniques that must be used if a proper connection is to be achieved. Additionally, you must use the proper tools to get the job done, including stripping, prepping and deburring instruments. Poorly installed connectors are the most common cause of voltage standing wave ratio problems. Likewise, a good connection will achieve the best RF transmission performance with a minimum of signal loss. The following techniques will ensure a good connection and long-term reliability.

Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Navini Networks, Inc. 176 Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) October 23, 2003 The typical procedure for installing the connector on cable sizes LMR-400 and LMR-600 (also is the same procedure on DB and FR) is: ?? Flush cut the cable squarely. ?? Slide the heat shrink boot and crimp ring onto the cable. Strip the cable-end using the ST-400-EZ or ST-600-EZ prep/strip tool by inserting the cable into End 1 and rotating the tool. Remove any residual dielectric material from the center conductor. ?? Insert the cable into End 2 of the tool and rotate the tool to remove the plastic jacket. ?? Deburr the center conductor using the DBT-01 deburring tool. ?? Flare the braid slightly and push the connector body onto the cable until the connector snaps into place, then slide the crimp ring forward, creasing the braid. ?? Temporarily slide the crimp ring back, and remove the connector body from the cable to trim the excess braid at the crease line, then remount the connector and slide the crimp ring forward until it butts up against the connector body. ?? Position the heavy duty HX-4 crimp tool with the appropriate dies (CT-400/300 tool may be used on LMR-400) directly behind and adjacent to the connector body, and crimp the connector. The HX-4 crimp tool automatically releases when the crimp is complete. ?? Position the heat shrink boot as far forward on the connector body as possible, without interfering with the coupling nut and use a heat gun to form a weather tight seal. The procedure for installing the connector on cable sizes LMR-400-LLPL and LMR-600-LLPL is very similar with a couple of differences: ?? Flush cut the cable squarely. ?? Slide the heat shrink boot and crimp ring onto the cable. Strip the cable-end using the ST-400-EZ or ST-600-EZ prep/strip tool by inserting the cable into End 1 and rotating the tool. Remove any residual dielectric material from the center conductor. ?? Insert the cable into End 2 of the tool and rotate the tool to remove the plastic jacket. ?? Deburr the center conductor using the DBT-01 deburring tool. ?? Flare the braid slightly, then put a slight taper on the front edge of the aluminum-covered dielectric by ‘rolling’ your fingers around the stripped end. (The heat shrink boot can also be used rather than your fingers.) ?? Rotate (turn) and push the connector body with a screwing motion (to prevent the foil from pushing back) onto the cable until the connector snaps into place. Then slide the crimp ring forward creasing the braid. ?? Temporarily slide the crimp ring back, and remove the connector body from the cable to trim the excess braid at the crease line, then remount the connector and slide the crimp ring forward until it butts up against the connector body. ?? Position the heavy duty HX-4 crimp tool with the appropriate dies (CT-400/300 tool may be used on LMR-400-LLPL) directly behind and adjacent to the connector body, and crimp the connector. The HX-4 crimp tool automatically releases when the crimp is complete. ?? Position the heat shrink boot as far forward on the connector body as possible, without interfering with the coupling nut and use a heat gun to form a weather tight seal.

Navini Networks, Inc. Ripwave Base Station I&C Guide Part #40-00047-00 Rev F v1.0 (TTA) 177 October 23, 2003 For installing the ‘EZ’ connectors on LMR-900-DB, FR and LLPL cables and larger, the process is as follows: ?? Flush cut the cable squarely. ?? Slide the backnut and gasket onto the cable. ?? Strip the cable-end using the EZ prep/strip tool by inserting the cable into the proper end of the tool (note that only one strip is needed). ?? Slide the gland washer on the end of the cable and over the braid (being careful not to disturb the braid) until it rests on the end of the cable jacket. ?? Spread the braid over the gland washer. ?? Slide the collar over the foil. ?? Push the ‘spring finger’ end of the connector pin assembly into the hollow center conductor. ?? Bring up the backnut and gasket. ?? Screw the connector head onto the backnut and tighten with proper size wrenches until the gasket is almost fully compressed.” Table N1: Reference Chart Showing ‘EZ’ Connectors For Use with LMR, DB & FR Cables LMR?
