iSite BTS3006C
Maintenance Manual Safety Precautions
Issue 01 (2007-01-24) Huawei Technologies Proprietary 5
Do not drill holes on the cabinet. Improper drilling may damage cables inside the cabinet. The
metal filings resulting from the drilling may fall into the cabinet and cause short-circuits in the
circuit board.
l Wear insulated gloves and move the cables inside the cabinet.
l Protect your eyes from the dispersed metal filings.
l Prevent metal filings from falling into the cabinet.
l Drill at proper places to avoid affecting the electromagnetic shielding performance of the
cabinet.
l After drilling, remove all the metal filings immediately.
3.6 Thunderstorm
Never work on high-voltage and AC or work on steel towers and masts in thunderstorms.
Thunderstorms generate powerful electromagnetic fields in air. Ground the equipment
properly to avoid thunder stroke.
3.7 Static Electricity
Static electricity generated in the human body may damage the electrostatic-sensitive parts on
the circuit board, such as large-scale integrated circuit (IC).
l In dry climate, the electrostatic charge carried by the human body may go up to 30 kV.
The charge may remain in the human body for a long period. When an operator with
electrostatic charge contacts with an electrostatic-sensitive part, the electric discharge
may damage the part.
l Before coming into contact with any equipment such as, hand-held plug-in boards,
circuit boards, or IC chips, wear an anti-static wrist strap with one end well grounded to
protect sensitive parts from static electricity on your body.
l Before touching any board or module, discharge the static electricity in your body by
wearing an anti-static wrist strap.
l Add a resistance of over 1M between the strap and the grounding point to protect
yourself from electric shock. The resistance over 1M is reliable in terms of electrostatic
voltage discharging. Check the anti-static wrist strap regularly. Never replace the cable
of the anti-static wrist strap with other cables.
Safety Precautions iSite BTS3006C
Maintenance Manual
6 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Issue 01 (2007-01-24)
l Prevent electrostatic-sensitive boards or modules from touching the object with static
electricity or the object that may easily generate static electricity. For example, when
rubbing on an object of insulating materials such as packing and conveyer, an
electrostatic-sensitive part takes electric charge. When touching a human body or when
connected to the ground, the discharge may damage the part.
l Electrostatic-sensitive boards or modules should contact only good conductors, such as
anti-static packing bags. Pack the board with an anti-static bag for stock or transport.
l Before connecting any measurement device to boards or modules, ground it to discharge
its static electricity.
l Do not place boards or modules near strong DC magnetic field, for example, the cathode
ray tube of a scope. Keep a distance of 10 cm at least.
l The damage caused by static electricity is accumulative in effect. If the damage is slight,
the part does not fail. However, as the damage occurs repeatedly, the part may suddenly
fail. The damage caused by electrostatic discharge on the part may be explicit or implicit.
The implicit damage is not visible. However, it makes the part vulnerable to over-voltage
and high-temperature.

4.3.2 Replacing BTS3006C Antennas
This section describes the procedure for replacing BTS3006C antennas.
Before BTS3006C antennas are replaced, the corresponding power amplifier must be
switched off. The replacement of the BTS3006C antennas may disrupt the services on the
cells covered by the antennas. Therefore, replace the BTS3006C antennas at a suitable time.
Preparations
Before replacing BTS3006C antennas, do as follows:
l Prepare the antennas.
Before replacing the antenna, do as follows:
− Confirm the types, models, and number of faulty antennas.
− Deliver the new antennas and relevant tools to the installation site.
l Assign the task of replacing the antenna to qualified engineers.
Replacing antennas is a dangerous job. The engineers must:
− Have attended relevant operation trainings and got the qualifications.
− Be healthy.
− Have bought health insurance for themselves.
− Have known the safety requirements of device usage and wear a safety belt.
The engineers who are to replace the antennas mounted on a steel tower on site should:
− Wear helmets.
− Drink no alcohol.
− Prepare a first-aid kit.
− Fasten the safety belts securely.
− Never wear loose clothes or slippery shoes.
The engineers working under the tower must:
− Keep those persons irrespective of the job, especially children, away from the site.
− Look after the installation parts, tools, and instruments.
l Check the new antennas.
After unpacking the antennas, check whether there are cracks on the antenna surface and
the connectors are bent.
− If there is any damage, do not use the antenna but report the damage to the
corresponding person who supplies the antenna.
− If there is no visible damage on the antenna, connect the corresponding jumpers to it.
Use a radio analyzer to test the VSWR of the antenna.
− As the position and direction of the antenna affect its VSWR, try different positions
and directions during the test.

Maintenance Manual
4-30 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Issue 01 (2007-01-24)
− If the VSWR is greater than 1.5 in any position or direction, infer that the antenna or
the connector is faulty.
− If the VSWR is greater than 1.5 only in some positions or directions, the antenna may
be faulty or not. Install the antenna and then test its VSWR again. If its value is still
over 1.5, the antenna must be faulty.
l Replace the antenna.
To replace a directional antenna, do as follows:
− Measure the pitch angle and azimuth first.
− Compare the measured values with the earlier data to ensure that the engineering
parameters required for the antenna installation are correct.
− Update the data if the engineering parameter records are not updated.
− Check whether the labels attached to 1/2-inch jumper is legible or not.
If not, reattach the labels to avoid mistakes in connecting the cables after the antenna
replacement.

A.1 Omni-Directional Antenna
l For the convenience of the future expansion, the antenna spacing should be strictly up to
the requirements.
l When TX and RX antennas share one antenna stand, the horizontal spacing requirements
can be ignored. However, the vertical spacing has to be guaranteed. The TX and RX
antennas cannot be at the same level.
l The angle of the highest-radiation-intensity directions of antennas should be greater than
the half of the vertical plane half-power angle of an antenna. The vertical plane half-power
angle of an antenna normally is from 4º to 12º. Therefore, the angle of the
highest-radiation-intensity directions of antennas should be greater than 7º. The higher the
antenna gain is, the smaller the angle is.
l Normally, the longer the antenna is, that is, the higher the antenna gain is, the larger the
antenna spacing should be.
As the isolation of the omni-directional antenna should be 30 dB, the omni-directional
antenna spacing should satisfy the requirements listed in Table A-1.

A.2 Directional Antennas
l For the convenience of the future expansion, the antenna spacing should be strictly up to
the above requirements.
l Directional antennas cannot be installed face to face. They can be arranged back to back or
side by side.
l Normally, the longer the antenna is (that is, the higher the antenna gain is), the larger the
antenna spacing should be.
As the isolation of the 120º directional antenna should be larger than 30 dB, the directional
antenna spacing should satisfy the requirements listed in Table A-2.

B.1 Engineering Labels for Feeders
The feeder is identified with metal tags. The white tags marked with black letters are fixed to
the feeder with cable ties.
Metal labels should be bound to the feeders using black ties at the following recommended
places:
l 200 mm away from the feeder connectors
l 200–300 mm down the tower platform
l Turning of the feeder
Paper labels should be stuck 200 mm away from the feeder connectors.
Be sure to turn the labels bound to the feeder outside. Keep the tags nice and neat. Lay both
the tags and the cables ties in the same direction.
Feeders are identified with metal tags, which are called engineering labels. The engineering
labels are described as Table B-1.

C Glossary
A
Antenna A device which radiates and/or receives radio signals. When working as a transmitter, it
converts high frequency current to electromagnetic waves; when working as a receiver, it
coverts electromagnetic waves to high frequency current.
B
Baseband Baseband is a form of modulation in which the information is applied directly onto the physical
transmission medium.
BSS In GSM the Base Station System is a term given to a BSC (Base Station Controller) and the
BTS (Base Transceiver Station) associated with it. The number of BTS associated with a BSC is
dependent on the manufacturer. Although not mandatory, through interpretation of the Abis
interface standard BTS and BSC employed within a BSS will always be supplied by the same
manufacturer.
The BSS is the physical equipment used to give radio coverage to a determined geographical
zone called a cell. Functionally, a BSS is subdivided into BSC and BTS.
C
Cell Radio network object that can be uniquely identified by a User Equipment from a (cell)
identification that is broadcasted over a geographical area from one UTRAN Access Point. A
Cell is either FDD or TDD mode.
G
GSM The Global System for Mobile communications is a second generation digital cellular
telecommunication system which was first planned in the early 1980s.
H
Handover The transfer of a user’s connection from one radio channel to another (can be the same or
different cell).

O
omnidirecti
onal
antenna
An antenna having an essentially non-directional radiation intensityin a given
plane, usually horizontal, referred to a specified polarization.
R
Receive
diversity The most common type of diversity, where a mobile device uses two physically separate
antennas to combine signals from the two antennas to reduce the impact of spatial variations in
signal strength and thus increase the average data rate available - sometimes dramatically.
T
TMA A Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) is a lower noise amplifier installed close to the antenna, for
example, on a tower. It amplifies weak signals from the antenna, thus improving UMTS
coverage, enhancing receiver sensitivity and reducing the transmit power of the UE.
TRX A transmitter and receiver housed together in a single unit and having some circuits in common,
often for portable or mobile use.
