BDA OVERVIEW:
The Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) assembly provides an exceptional repeater/booster performances to
extend the coverage area of radio communications in buildings and RF shielded environments.
Features such as high linearity power amplifiers are contributing for the overall improved system
linearity performances. The unit is based on a duplexed path configuration, having sharp out of band
attenuation for improved isolation between the receiving and transmitting paths.

BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION:
The amplifiers in this BDA have an AGC option switch. When switched on, the AGC circuit limits the
amplifier output power. The AGC circuit senses the output power and introduces more attenuation,
when the output power exceeds the preset level of +27dBm*. This way the gain of the amplifier is
reduced, its output power is limited and the intermodulations products are kept below the desired level.
In this manner the output power cannot exceed the +27 dBm* preset power and the IMD levels are
always kept below –13 dBm.
The AGC amplifier has a Power LED lamp that illuminates when the output power has reached the
preset power limit.
*note: AGC preset level can be factory modified to +24dBm upon customer request.
In addition the BDA has a trimmer that enables the reduction of the gain by 15 dB.

BDA OPERATION
The BDA comes with a standard 3-wire male plug with phase, neutral and safety ground wires. A high
efficiency DC switching power supply supplies DC power to two amplifiers (Uplink and Downlink) and
the Power On lamp.
The RF connection is made via two type “N” female connectors. The RF connector labeled “Base” must
be connected to the antenna pointing to the base station. The RF connection labeled “Mobile” must be
connected to the antenna pointing into the area to be covered by the BDA.
The isolation between the base station antenna and the mobile antenna should be at least 12 dB higher
than the BDA gain. If the isolation is less than the BDA gain, oscillation would start and would saturate
the amplifier. Isolation of few dB higher than the BDA gain cannot start oscillations but would causes
gain ripple in the band.
AGC & MGC FUNCTION
The BDA model No: MW-CBDA-800A-1W60-PG2 has AGC function. Their amplifier has a directional
coupler and a detector at the output of the high power amplifier to monitor the output power. When a
high signal is received the automatic level control detects the amplitude and sends a feedback signal to
a voltage variable attenuator, which attenuates the signal level so that the output power of the amplifier
does not exceed the preset limit. The LED on the amplifier illuminates when the power out the amplifier
is within the set limit (both when the AGC is On and when the AGC is OFF).
The switch on the RF amplifier enables the AGC function. If the AGC is disabled then the amplifier gives
maximum gain.
MGC: The RF gain of the BDA can be reduced linearly by about 15 dB using the trimmer on the
amplifier. The RF gain is at maximum when the trimmer is at anti-clockwise direction. To reduce the
gain, turn the trimmer clockwise using a screwdriver. Turning it halfway would reduce the gain by 7.5
dB.
The AGC and MGC functions for the uplink path are reached by opening a small cover located on the
DBA side adjacent to the Mobile antenna port. For the downlink path the window is located on the side
near the Base antenna port.
Note: The BDA is shipped with the AGC switch in the OFF position and maximum RF gain.

BDA INSTALLATION
Install the BDA Repeater in a shielded, ventilated and easy to reach area. Use low loss cables to
connect antennas to the BDA. Install the BDA close to the service area to improve output power and
noise figure. Mount the BDA with RF connecters pointing down. The RF connection is made via two
type “N” female connectors. The RF connector labeled “Base” must be connected to the antenna;
usually a Yagi; pointing to the base station. The RF connection labeled “Mobile” must be connected to
the antenna pointing into the area to be covered by the BDA.
BASE / DONOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION
Typically this is a directional antenna such as Yagi or Dish antenna of 10 to 15 dB gain. This antenna is
pointed to the base station to get maximum input power. This antenna should be in line of sight with the
base site. Raise this antenna higher if no line of sight is achieved. The required Base signals should be
the dominant signals; at least 6 dB higher power than other signals.
Choose the antenna site to get the maximum isolation from the remote (mobile serving) antenna.
REMOTE / SERVICE ANTENNA INSTALLATION
The remote antenna is an Omni antenna or a directional antenna according to the coverage
requirements.
For indoor applications covering a large building, the RF signals are split using power dividers and
distributed to many antennas each covering a floor or a small area.
ANTENNA ISOLATION
For proper operation the isolation between these two antennas must be at least 12 dB higher than the
BDA gain. Lower isolation would lead to high in-band ripple. Oscillations will build up when the isolation
is lower than BDA gain.
The isolation between the antennas is critical for high gain outdoor repeaters.
To measure the isolation; inject a known signal into one antenna and measure the power at the other
antenna. This should be done across the frequency range of both uplink and downlink bands.

INSTALLATION STEPS
1. Install all antennas and connect them to the BDA inputs.
2. Open the access windows at the sides of the BDA so that the variable attenuator is reached and the
LED is visible.
3. Turn the AGC On. This AGC limits the output power of the BDA. The AGC on the Downlink path
guarantees constant downlink power when and if the Donor power changes.
4. Set downlink gain to minimum; uplink gain to minimum ( by turning the gain control trimmer
clockwise).
5. Increase the downlink channel gain (by turning the gain control trimmer counterclockwise) till the
LED turns from off to on. This is the best gain setting giving highest usable power.
6. The LED on the downlink power amplifier will illuminate if adequate donor power has reached the
BDA. If the donor power is low the LED will not lit and the BDA usable power is not used efficiently.
7. Set the uplink gain to the same as the downlink gain.
8. Check that the uplink LED on the BDA monitor does not lit permanently. This LED would lit
permanently If the isolation between antennas is low (BDA oscillations) or the BDA is faulty.
9. If the uplink LED light permanently then:
•
Disconnect one of the cables from the BDA connectors and connect a load at the
connectors.
•
If the LED on this amplifier illuminates permanently then the BDA is faulty (oscillating) and
needs replacing.
•
If the LEDs stops illuminating then the isolation between the donor and remote antennas is
low. Either improve the isolation (e.g. increase separation) or reduce BDA gain.
•
To reduce gain, reconnect the antenna cables. Reduce the gain at both uplink and downlink
path until this LED stops illuminating. Reduce the gain further by 10 dB. This is the
maximum usable gain.

DIAGNOSTICS GUIDE
The BDA provides long term, carefree operation and requires no periodic maintenance.
This section covers possible problems related to the installation environment.
RF Faults and RF Power Amplifiers LED Indications
The LEDs on the power amplifier are set to turn on when the transmitted power has reached
or exceeded the specified composite power.
Normally the LED at the downlink power amplifier should be on indicating good forward power

RF EXPOSURE WARNING
In order to satisfy the FCC RF exposure requirements, you must ensure that the installation complies
with the following:
One antenna is connected via cable that has typical 1~10 dB attenuation (depends on the length of the
cable) to the BDA BASE port. This antenna is installed outdoor by fixed mounting, and has very sharp
beam (Yagi type or similar) pointed to the donor (BTS). This type of antenna has up to 15 dBi gain.
Typical specifications: gain: 15 dBd (=10.1 dBi), VSWR: better than 1.5:1 , Impedance: 50 ohm. The
outdoor antenna must be installed to provide a minimum separation distance of 0.5 m (50 cm) from
persons within the area.
The second antenna is connected via cable that has typical 1~10 dB attenuation (depends on the length
of the cable) to the CBDA MOBILE port. This type of antenna is omnidirecttional (isotropic), or wide
beam, with 0 to 2 dBi typical gain and is installed and distributes indoor (in buildings, tunnels,
basements, park lots, shopping centers etc.). Typical specifications: gain: 2 dBi, VSWR: better than 2:1 ,
Impedance: 50 ohm. The indoor antenna must be installed to provide a minimum separation distance of
0.2 m (20 cm) from persons within the area.
