1. Overview
iDEN (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network) repeater is an OTA type of repeater based on RF
signal boosting to enhance in-building coverage using frequency bandwidths operated by iDEN
system.
iDEN repeater amplifies received EBTS(Enhanced Base Transceiver System) OTA signal and
relays it to fill an in-building coverage. The amplified signal can be distributed by repeaters
installed in various poor coverage where telecommunication service can not be provided such
as buildings, homes and in-building parking lots..
It is designed to be flexibly applicable for every frequency in iDEN spectrum bandwidth with
excellent selectivity capabilities of frequency in broad range for Down Link and Up Link service
through one UP/DOWN Converter and minimizes interference of other signals. For stable
service of repeater installed in the field iDEN (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network) repeater
controller has two management functions; the local repeater management function to
continuously manage and control the repeater and remote repeater management function to
remotely inspect and control through intensive inspection system.
iDEN (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network) repeater is interlocked with iDEN repeater
intensive inspection system using modem.
The basic structure of iDEN repeater is supported by one input Port and one output Port. The
inner section of repeater composes of One-Module of DL(Down Link) Converter and UL(Up
Link) Converter, PSU(Power Supply Unit), Multiplexer, Controller, and PAU(Power Amplifier
Unit) in order to achieve optimized size and high effectiveness.
All modules except PAU are commonly used for cost effective operation. For instance
replacement of PAU enables change of repeater output.
