RSP-APE-030M User’s Manual R-tron., Inc. 3/15 page 1. Overview Figure 1.1 RSP-APE-030M Repeater R-tron RSP-APE-030M Repeater can be used in CDMA service hole spots like in-buildings, underground and tunnels to cover its service area. This repeater system designed for dual and simultaneous service, namely, it receives signals from the base station through donor antenna, amplifies the signals and re-transmits it to one or other mobile terminals. Also, it amplifies the signals which comes from mobile terminals through distributor antenna and re-amplifies it to base station. Using local OMT(Operation and Maintenance Terminal) which is connected between repeater control board and personal or laptop computer, it is possible to check or to control repeater status.

This diagram is applicable to repeaters for CDMA systems. 3.1.1 Downlink signal path DL signal path gives a wireless mobile terminal path after receiving signal from base station, amplifying and noise filtering. Please refer to the following picture 3.1, RSP-APE-030M repeater block diagram. 3.1.2 Uplink signal path UL signal path gives a path after receiving signal from mobile terminal, amplifying and noise filtering. Please refer to the following picture 3.1, RSP-APE-030M repeater block diagram.
RSP-APE-030M User’s Manual R-tron., Inc. 8/15 page 4. Installation 4.1 Installation Overview The following gives you guide how you can install R-tron repeater properly, considering field situation and installation specific conditions. 4.2 Safety 4.2.1 Purpose The following information gives you how you can proceed your job correctly and eliminate dangerous condition. 4.2.2 Application Range Installation supervisor should check and do the proper thing to check preliminary dangerous condition. 4.3 Installation information-1 4.3.1 Right-of-way - The repeater shall be installed in the location owned or leased by the carrier. - If the repeater is installed in the building, an appropriate space for the installation must be considered. 4.3.2 Conditions for the Installation space Repeater should be installed as followings : In the building - Avoid certain part which is located something heavy or water tank on the roof, considering weight balance. - Select certain place which is good for air ventilation. - There will be enough space to check the repeater.
RSP-APE-030M User’s Manual R-tron., Inc. 9/15 page 4.4 Installation Information-2 The installation of the repeater depends on the types of support, location, and the demand of the carrier. Figure 4.1 Antenna & Repeater Installation 4.4.1 General Condition - Check whether the repeater status is correctly horizontal angle. - Check whether there is enough space for maintenance and repair. 4.4.2 Installing Band set - Repeater main box should be installed 8.2 inches at least, above from the ground. - When you install the repeater main box, do not impact on its installation to other repeaters maintenance. - Safety plate should be installed 8.2 inches at least, above from the ground. 4.4.3 Precautions - Never mount the donor or coverage antenna near a window, where Signal can easily pass through the glass - Mount the donor antenna as high as physically possible to the exterior of the building, maximizing the vertical separation between antennas and pointing away from the building, toward the base station site. - Install the antennas taking advantage of any existing building structure Such as brick walls, metal roofs, or multiple wall structures to additionally attenuate the path between them. - When using directional antennas inside the building to cover Corridors and hallways, point the interior antenna away from The donor antenna location . - In extreme cases, the building configuration may not allow for Such separation and isolation. If additional isolation is required, Coaxial attenuation may be inserted between the donor antenna and the repeater , with the potential compromise to the coverage within the building
