A ii March 2003 G3L-2100-30-B/G3L-2100-30-C Operation Manual Section 1 General Description 1-1 Introduction This manual contains information and procedures for the operation of the model G3L-2100-30-B and G3L-2100-30-C Wideband (WCDMA) Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA). The manual is organized into the following sections and appendix. Section 1 Section 2 Appendix A General Description Operation Specifications 1-2 General Description The amplifiers are wideband, linear, feed-forward power amplifiers (WPAs) that operate in the 60 MHz frequency bandwidth from 2110 to 2170 MHz with an instantaneous bandwidth of 20 MHz. The amplifier provides linear amplification for single or multi-carrier WCDMA signals. The amplifiers communicate with the base station via a TLCI control interface bus; passing alarm and measurement information to the base station and receiving control information from the base station. 1-3 Hardware Interface There are three groups of interface connections located on the amplifier chassis. These are RF, power, and control interface (TLCI bus) as described in the paragraphs that follow. 1-3.1 RF The RF interface is located on the power amplifier front panel consists of the RF-In (TX-In) and RF-Out (TX-Out) connectors as shown in Figure 1-1. 1-3.2 Power Supply Power supply voltages (-48 VDC or 230 VAC) from the base station subrack are connected to the amplifier via connector X3, pins A – D located on the power amplifier rear panel as shown in figure 1-1. Table 1-1 lists the voltages and descriptions for each pin.

A 1-1 March 2003 G3L-2100-30-B/G3L-2100-30-C Operation Manual 1-3.3 TLCI Bus Communications The purpose of the TCLI bus is to provide a communications interface between the power amplifier and base station. The bus is connected from the base station subrack to the X3 connector located on the power amplifier rear panel as shown in figure 1-1. Table 1-2 lists the signal names and descriptions for each pin of the 24-pin connector.

A 1-2 March 2003 G3L-2100-30-B/G3L-2100-30-C Operation Manual 1-4 Alarms The WPA generates the following alarms and communicates then to the base station via the TLIC bus: • VSWR • Gain • Temperature • Over-Drive • Power Supply • Linearization The base station is able to query the current alarm status from the WPA. Fault status is cleared at unit reset which means that any alarm detected after reset is reported to the base station. The alarm status always represents existing conditions. 1-4.1 VSWR The WPA supervises the output (load) VSWR and gives the alarm based on the following limits as listed in table 1-3. Table 1-3 VSWR Alarm Limits VSWR Alarm Status Limits VSWR alarm ON VSWR at the output>8.5:1 @ phase 0-360º VSWR alarm OFF VSWR at the output<3.0:1 or when the VSWR alarm is disabled @ phase 0-360º 1-4.2 Gain The WPA supervises the gain of the unit and gives the gain alarm according to the limits listed in table 1-4. Table 1-4 Gain Alarm Limits Gain Alarm Status Limits Gain alarm ON Gain deviates more than ±1.5 dB from specified nominal gain or if the carrier cancellation loop is out of lock, the gain alarm is activated Gain alarm OFF Gain is within the specified range or disabled 1-4.3 Temperature The WPA monitors the internal temperature. The measured temperature must represent the base plate temperature of the main power amplifier. The alarm is given according to the limits listed in table 1-5.

This alarm causes an automatic WPA shutdown. 1-4.6 Linearization In case of poor output signal, the linearization causes an automatic WPA shutdown. 1-5 Status Indicator The status indicator LED is located on the WPA front panel as shown in figure 1-1. The LED has tri-color capability: red, yellow, and green. The LED’s blinking frequency is 0.5 – 1 Hz with a duty cycle of 45 – 55%. The LED indicates the status of the WPA as listed in table 1-6. Table 1-6 Status Indicator Colors LED Color WPA Status Red (stable) Manual main-switch turned standby and no TCP/UDB connection established Red (stable) LED lighting period 1.5± ±0.5 sec Manual main-switch turned ON or WPA is resetting Yellow (blinking) WPA in self-heating state Yellow (stable) In startup phase, WPA is in standby state and before state change message from WPA LED state as it was before disconnection TCP/IP connection is lost for two minutes Yellow (stable) TCP/IP connection is lost and WPA is in standby state Copyright Powerwave Technologies, Inc., March 2003.

Turn on the WPA as described in the steps that follow. CAUTION Before applying power, make sure that the input and output of the system is properly terminated at 50 ohms. Do not operate the system without a load attached. Refer to appendix A for input power requirements. Excessive input power may damage the amplifier. WARNING Never remove or install coaxial cables on either the subrack input or output port when the power amplifier is turned on. Operating the power amplifier while disconnecting and connecting RF cables may damage the equipment and/or cause personal injury. 1. Verify that all input and output RF cables are properly connected. Do not apply an RF signal to the WPA. 2. Turn on the main manual power supply switch (1=ON, 0=OFF). The WPA will self-test and initialize (<15 sec), then establish communication with the base station via the TLCI bus. When completed, the WPA notifies the base station that it is ready to be taken into operation. The WPA then remains in a standby state until commanded by the base station. The command received from the base station includes the operating band and based on that band, the pilot frequency sets to 10 MHz lower than the lowest carrier in the operating band. NOTE When the WPA is switched on in temperature conditions below the minimum operating temperature (-10ºC), self-heating is performed until an acceptable operating temperature exists. NOTE The main manual power supply switch is also used to reset the WPA by manually setting the switch to OFF then back to ON. Copyright Powerwave Technologies, Inc., March 2003.
