2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
2.1 RD-2020 FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
Figure 2: Functional Diagram
In the downlink, the BTS signals are received by donor antenna of the equipment. After the duplexer, the
signals are sent to the LNA module for pre-amplification, followed by band selection using the Frequency
Selection (FS) modules. The power amplifiers (PA) can amplify all carriers within the passband to the
maximum output power permitted. The duplexer permits combining with the uplink signals to share a
single service antenna.
In the uplink, the mobile signals are received by the service antenna. After the duplexer, the signals are
sent to the LNA, FS and PA modules before duplexing with the downlink signals. The uplink signals are
sent to the donor antenna for transmission back to the BTS.

2.3 EQUIPMENT CONSTITUTION
The RD-2020 consists of the following modules:
Frequency Selection (FS): The FS is used to select the desired carriers and reject unwanted signals.
Power Amplifier (PA): It fulfils power amplification in both UL and DL branches.
Duplexer (DPX): The DPX is located towards the DT and MT terminals and permits the uplink and
downlink signals to share a common antenna. One LNA is integrated in each DPX.
Li-ion Battery: The Li-ion battery pack is enclosed within a plastic cover and provides back-up supply to
the MCU to send out alarm signals in the event of mains failure.
Main Control Unit (MCU): The MCU is used to monitor and control the operation of the equipment. It also
provides the communication interface for remote control and indication. LED indicators provide the
operation status of the MCU.
Power Supply Unit (PSU): The PSU converts the input voltage into a stable DC to provide power for the
internal functional modules and to charge the internal Li-ion battery.
Distribution Board: The distribution board serves as a distributor for power and internal communication
within the equipment. It provides connectivity to function modules, MCU, RS232 port for local control.
Surge Arrestor: The AC Mains surge arrestor is mounted next to the PSU and has three connections:
VAC Live, Neutral and Ground. This provides protection to the PSU. It is assumed that the antenna system
will have ample lightning protection. On the top of each surge arrestor is a little window with a coloured
indicator. ‘Green’ indicates protection is available, and in the event of a fault, the colour will turn to ‘Black’.
When this occurs, the surge protector has to be replaced.
Note: When the equipment is DC powered, no surge arrestor is required.

3.2.1 INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
•
Working space available for installation and maintenance for each mounting arrangement. Ensure
unrestricted airflow.
•
Ensure earthing point is within reach of the ground wire.
•
Ensure a power source is within reach of the power cord and the power source has sufficient capacity
(about 10A for 220/110VAC, 20A for +24VDC, 10A for -48VDC).
•
Where appropriate, ensure unused RF connectors are terminated.
•
Do not locate the equipment near large transformers or motors that may cause electromagnetic
interference.
•
Reduce signal loss in feeder cable by minimizing the length and number of RF connections.
•
Ensure VSWR of antennas system < 1.5:1.
•
Ensure equipment will be operated within the stated environment (refer to datasheet)
•
Observe handling of all cables to prevent damage.
•
Donor antenna should have a narrow beamwidth positioned in line-of-sight (LOS) to donor BTS site so
that the donor signal level is maximized. This allows the use of minimum gain to achieve the maximum
DL output power. The UL gain is typically set lower than or equal to the DL gain to minimize noise
interference to the donor BTS.

3.5 EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS
3.5.1 GROUNDING CONNECTION
Ground Connection
To ensure safe operation of the product, a ground (earth) connection is required. For single phase AC
power source, the product must be grounded by connecting the “earth wire” of the power cord to the
ground terminal of the AC supply. For operating this product with DC power system (such as rectifiers), the
product should not be connected to power systems that switch open the return lead because the return
lead could function as the ground (earth) connection for the equipment.
Protective Ground Connection
The enclosure must be grounded securely by connecting a copper wire (CSA 16mm2) to the grounding
terminal on the equipment/rack, and the other end to a protective ground (i.e. building earth point). An
internationally acceptable colour code of the ground connection wire is green/yellow.
The voltage identification is a variant due to electricity system diversity of global regions. The power cable gland might
be identified for AC 220V, AC 110V, AC 220V/110V, DC -48V, or DC +24V respectively. Please refer to specific
product or contact local sales if any doubt.
RD-2020 CDMA QI
ENU Status : 1-0-0
Copyright - refer to title page
Page 19
INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR RD-2020
Such a ground connection implements the “Protective Ground Connection”, and must be connected to the
equipment at the designated ground point. In general, do not connect the supply before establishing an
adequate ground (earth) connection.
Construct the ground wire, and use appropriate crimp connectors where necessary. Locate and connect
the equipment grounding terminal to a protective ground (i.e. building earth point).
3.5.2 SERVICE VOLTAGE CONNECTION
The product accepts AC or DC power depending on the type of PSU installed.
•
For AC PSU – The equipment accepts single phase 220/110VAC power. The recommended AC
connection is rated at AC220/110V, 10A and has three connections to include earth. The power cord
has been pre-wired to the PSU and led out via the power cable gland.
•
For DC PSU – When the equipment is required to be DC powered, DC power connection from telecom
rectifier is via a wire with CSA of 2.1mm2. DC voltage supply is hard-wired to the rectifier equipment.
For planning purposes, allow DC current up to 20A and 10A to be drawn when powered with +24V
and -48V respectively. The wiring to telecom rectifiers is outside the scope of this document. Please
consult and observe the installation guidelines for telecom rectifiers.

2. Set Channel No.
3. Adjust Downlink Output
Power and align donor
antenna
4. Configure [Equipment ID]
5. Comm. Config
6. Select Monitoring
Parameters
7. Test coverage area field
intensity and adjust
service antenna.
8. Verify UL gain and ensure
test call produces good
voice quality and there is
no interfering BTS
Observation
Connect to repeater from PC via OMT.
Keep RF switch ON and set the channel number of the repeater’s
operating frequency.
Observe DL input power from measured value. Align the direction of
donor antenna until the DL input power reading is maximized.
Note: To ensure that the measured DL input power is accurate, one
should set the DL ATT to “0” before performing the check.
Go to [Properties Info] and set [Equipment ID].
Enable the power supply by selecting “On” in [RF] -> [Switch]; go to
[Properties Info.] -> [Comm. Config.] and set OMC Phones No. , the
service No. of SMSC, Report Mode.
Select the equipment controlled and monitored parameters.
If the external devices are connected to the equipment for
management, please enable in the [External Alarm Info.] Interface.
Use test-handset to verify field intensity within the coverage area. If
needed, realign the service antenna to achieve the desired
coverage.
Note: If during operation, the equipment gain could not be set to
maximum or the output power is not high enough due to insufficient
donor and service antennas isolation, then the antennas’ position
should be changed to increase isolation. If the output power is too
high and ALC is activated, then adjust the DL ATT to achieve
optimal DL Gain.
Adjust UL gain and perform test calls. Typically, the UL gain is set
around 5dB less than DL gain. Perform test calls in the coverage
area while adjusting UL gain if required.
Note: If the repeater is near the BTS and the test call performance
is poor, this may be due to UL noise interference to the BTS. Users
can calculate and determine if the repeater UL noise will interfere
with the BTS.
Verify again that there is no unacceptable interference to BTS.
