Preface  Personal mobile communication is now part of daily life and persons have come to expect a robust network that meets their increased demand for an always-on network that provides seamless coverage and unlimited bandwidth at high speeds. Cellular repeaters are an integral part of achieving this goal.   A cellular tower in a non-metro environment typically supports a large capacity of users but is affected by a relatively small coverage footprint. Therefore, the average number of users who can access it is limited and a large amount of channel resources go unused. The best way of solving this problem is to use repeaters to extend the BTS coverage to fully utilize the telecommunication resources. Hence cellular repeaters are no longer considered as peripheral devices to cover blind areas in the network but as part of the core network itself. Extending coverage and maximizing the available network resources and revenue growth for the operator.   The complete coverage approach is not only a prerequisite for a high quality mobile cellular network, but also a factor that attracts users. From this point of view, a network operator should first consider providing a radio network architecture with complete coverage in mind. This includes seamless coverage in urban areas, residential houses, parking lots as the first step. Cellular repeaters successfully aid in accomplishing this.   With this in mind, JDTECK has focused on successfully developing advanced repeaters that are applicable to any mobile network and indoor antenna   .  Repeaters  are available to support any   Because a large amount of BTS or Node B devices are deployed in densely populated urban areas, there is usually no large blind area. Repeaters are simply used to cover small blind areas and provide signal coverage inside buildings or sub-ground locations. Typically, radio frequency (RF) repeaters are used when optical fibers are not available in buildings or when using a fiber solution is not cost effective.   Since the number of repeaters on a cellular network usually increases with the number of buildings to be covered in a specific sector, multiple repeaters may end up feeding from one BTS or Node B. In view of this, the design of the antenna is extremely important to maintain an acceptable noise floor and thus achieve seamless integration to the macro network especially in densely populated areas.  Repeaters adopt an integrated module concept. It is compact in structure and combines the RF module and the monitoring mode in one unit. Owing to its high selectivity, stability and reliability, repeaters are widely applied to indoor signal distribution in small areas where signals are shielded due to the various materials used in building construction. They are also used to cover shadow areas outdoors. Such repeaters are very suitable to signal optimization in densely populated urban areas.      Figure 1 shows the applications of the repeaters.                     3  4
the antenna.  2. Introduction  This full duplex mobile communications repeater from JDTECK is the perfect solution for providing a wireless improvement in the cellular reception of a small and medium size house in the quickest time possible.  It is designed to improve the call quality of an area by receiving, amplifying, filtering and re-transmitting the signals from the base station into a specified area via    To maintain safe and specific output signal levels, this repeater has built-in signal oscillation detection circuits with color changing LEDs to indicate its environmental status. The Alarm LEDs located on the front of the unit(Downlink Alarm &Uplink Alarm) will change color from green to amber or red, (depending on the intensity) if the system detects signal oscillation in either band, or if the input signal is beyond a safe limit so as to avoid interference to the cellular network, the repeater will indicate this.   This repeater also has an automatic gain control (AGC) feature which will reduce the output power of the repeater if oscillation is detected. This range can vary from 15-20dB depending on the model of your repeater. If the reduction in gain needed to take the unit out of alarm exceeds the range of the AGC, then the end user can make use of yet another feature of this repeater called manual gain control (MGC). This allows the end user to further reduce the output gain of the repeater by using the DIP switches on the front of the unit to manually attenuate (reduce) the repeater’s output gain of either the uplink or downlink individually. This repeater is also equipped with an uplink sleep feature. It is activated after the repeater detects more than 5 mins of voice or data inactivity through the antenna.    JDTECK’s repeaters also feature a Network Safe / MUTE feature that automatically shuts-down the transmission side of the repeater to protect the cellular network if no adjustments are made to eliminate alarm readings on the repeater’s LEDs. You will want to make sure the LEDs remain green at all times for optimum system performance.  The main cause of signal oscillation is when any of the indoor antennas are too close in proximity to the outdoor antenna on the roof.

 3. Installation  1. The repeater’s main function is to improve weak RF signals to an area.  2.  Selecting  the  appropriate  accessories  that  are  compatible  with  the frequency  of  the  repeater  is  very  important  for  optimal  system performance. A 700MHz Repeater needs to be used with accessories that supports the 700MHz band. In the same way, choosing accessories in the 1900MHz  Band  needs  to  go  with  a 1900MHz  Repeater  etc.  For  multi-band repeaters, please ensure the peripheral components used supports all the frequencies needed.   3. The signal strength at the outdoor antenna directly affects the efficiency of the indoor coverage. Therefore it is very important to choose the location of the outdoor antenna carefully. With this in mind, it is not recommended that the donor antenna be installed in an attic or at the side of a single or double story building.  4. The repeater is a two-way (full duplex) signal amplifier. Therefore there needs  to  be  proper  isolation  between  the  outdoor  antenna  and  indoor antenna  in  order  to  avoid  signal  oscillation  of  the  repeater. (Feedback) There needs to be more than 15dB of isolation above the repeaters gain. For example, if the repeater gain is 60dB, then you need 75dB of isolation between outdoor antenna and indoor antenna.  5. The repeater gain is adjustable for both the uplink / downlink individually. Depending  on  the  environment,  the  end-user  may  need  to  adjust  the repeater gain to achieve optimum performance and desired coverage.  6. The repeater is designed to amplify the input signal, filter it and retransmit it  to  the  desired  area  via  service  antennas.  In  order  to reach  the  best performance, the outdoor signal should be  better than -80dBm, and not over +10dBm. If the outdoor signal is very weak, then a pre-amplifier may be used.  7. Calculating the Link budget before setting the repeater gain.    Link budget calculation:     Outdoor  signal  strength  –  Loss  of  accessories  (cable,  connectors, splitters,  Directional  Couplers,  Path  Loss)  +  Antenna  gain  (outdoor antenna, indoor antenna) + Repeater gain = Indoor signal strength.  8.  For  all  cellular  applications,  you  need  to  use  50  Ohm  rated  coax. Besides affecting voice quality, using any other impedance of coax will put an extra load on your repeater and shorten its life span.    3.1 Installation Procedure                                                  Site Survey Installation Planning Link Budget Calculating Install Outdoor Antenna Cable Installation Install Repeater Install Indoor Antennas Signal Measurement Gain Adjustment Test for Call Quality Trouble Shooting 7  8
 3.1 Installation Procedure – Cont.     Check the contents supplied.    Identify a suitable location where you would like to mount the donor antenna on your roof or at an elevated location, free of any other antennas or immediate obstructions. Confirm this location has the best input signal from the cell tower or towers you would like to support.    Ensure the location is properly isolated from any of the indoor antennas and at the same time, ensure the cable length supplied is sufficient to complete your installation.    Install the donor antenna and route the coax to the proposed location for the indoor base unit. DO NOT COIL UP any excess coax you may have which include service loops. These are detrimental to cellular performance.     Connect the indoor service antennas, coax and power supply. Power up the unit and monitor the LED status for errors.    If the donor antenna used is not an Omni-directional antenna or the nearest cell tower location is not known at the time of system commissioning, then you may need to rotate the donor antenna until the best signal strength or call quality is achieved on your mobile device inside the building, while making sure the LEDs stay green on the repeater.  We suggest getting someone to help rotate the donor antenna while you monitor both your mobile device and the LEDs on the repeater at the same time.    If signal oscillation is between 1~4dB then the Alarm LED for the relevant band will turn amber. Please adjust the DL repeater gain till the LEDs turn green. (See attenuation adjustment)   If the signal oscillation is between 10-15dB then the Alarm LED for the relevant band  will turn red, and  the  respective circuit  will then  go into MUTE  / Shutdown. This is  as  a  result  of not having  enough isolation between the donor and service antennas or the input signal at the donor antenna is too strong. In this case attenuate the DL gain on the repeater and then match the  UL gain  to the same gain value.  After each  gain adjustment is made, quickly power cycle the repeater to ensure you are not  trying  to  optimize  the  repeater  while  your  ACG  is  active.  (See attenuation settings for adjustments)      3.2 Antenna Installation and Coax Cable Wiring  We do not recommend installing the donor antenna of your repeater system in the attic or at the side of a single or double story building. Doing so will greatly reduce the quality of the input signal from the cell tower. Also you increase the risk of signal oscillation occurring thus having to attenuate the output power of your repeater which reduces the coverage area.          Do not install the donor antenna near high voltage power lines.    Please take the necessary safety measures when working on heights.   Do not mount near or in the path of other antennas or satellite dishes.               It is recommended that you mount your donor antenna in a spot that is free of any immediate obstructions. Making use of a pole or mounting bracket is recommended for optimum antenna performance.                  9 10
  The default of UL/DL gain    attenuator is at 0dB. (Full Power) 3.3 Manual Gain Adjustment ~ UL / DL   In order to meet  and maintain safe  environmental conditions for  seamless network integration, this repeater is equipped with a dip switch assembly that allows you to manually control the Uplink / Downlink gain individually. The UL/DL attenuator control range is from 0dB to -31dB by 1dB increments in each band. There is a dip switch bank available for each frequency.                     The DIP Switch control method is described as below.  Switches 1-5 represents DL adjustment & 6-10 represents UL adjustment.                     3.3 Manual Gain Adjustment ~ UL / DL – Con’t.   When do you adjust the Repeater Gain?   This repeater is equipped with an alarm feature that monitors the input gain. If the input gain is too high, the DL Alarm LED will change color from green to either amber or red indicating the intensity of the error. High input gain can occur if the donor antenna is in a location where the receive signal strength (RSSI) from the cell tower is extremely good (-50dB or better) or if signal oscillation is taking place. Signal Oscillation is when the amplified signal from the indoor service antenna is being received back into the donor antenna outside.   To determine what is the cause of your Alarm LED changing color you can disconnect the indoor antenna / service line from the “INDOOR” port of the repeater while the repeater is on. If the LED does not change to green, then your input signal from the cell tower is very strong. At this point you attenuate the DL gain by 1dB increments till the LEDs turns green again. Then you must match the same attenuation value to the UL set of switches.   Since this repeater is equipped with an AGC function, it is important to determine if at the time you are adjusting your DIP switches, the ACG has not already been activated. To determine this, quickly power cycle the repeater (OFF then Back ON) after you have made a switch adjustment. If any of the Alarm LED’s take at least 10 sec to turn green, then AGC has been activated. At this point you want to add a little more attenuation to the respective circuit then power cycle the unit again. The aim is to have your LED’s all green within 5 sec of the repeater being turned on. After which you can connect the indoor antenna / service line again.   If after reconnecting the indoor antenna or service line, the LED changes back to amber or red then signal oscillation is taking place. This is the result of your indoor and outdoor antennas being too close to each other and should therefore have more separation or continue to add more attenuation.   When complete, try making some test calls throughout the desired area of coverage  while  monitoring  the LEDs  to see  if  it  changes  color.  If you  are showing strong signal strength but your calls are not going through, it could be  that  you  need  to  attenuate  your  uplink  gain  a  bit  more.  Keep  in mind however that you do not want to have more than a 5dB difference between the uplink and downlink values for optimum system performance.  We encourage you to call us if you are experiencing difficulty when commissioning your repeater system. We want to make sure you have seamless integration to the cellular network and optimal system performance. We are always happy to help. 1-866-4-JDTECK (53-8325).
