Base Station Radio and ancillary equipment and Repeaters meeting phase 2 GSM requirements. 4.5. General Mobile Communications Systems are planned as cellular systems and each cell of the base station is required to provide RF coverage over a certain geographical area as per defined RF power levels. Due to the RF propagation properties, even using high radiated RF powers or complicated antenna systems, there are zones within the coverage area where the RF signal strength from base station remains inadequate for establishing the desired connectivity to mobile users. Repeaters traditionally are deployed in the Mobile Communication Network to fill in the “Dead Zones” caused by blocking of signals by geographic topologies such as mountains, valleys, dense foliage, high rise urban landscapes and other man-made structures. The distance from the base station also adversely affects the RF signal strength. The user views repeaters as a means to extend base station coverage so as to reduce the number of base stations and thereby accelerate network availability. Repeater systems are installed after meticulous planning between BTSs and the mobile users to provide RF coverage in the shadowed regions. Repeater systems are available for different applications and ultimate choice shall depend on some of the factors mentioned below: • • • Area to be provided with coverage. Indoor/outdoor coverage. Availability of BTSs in the vicinity. All Rights Reserved Shyam Telecom Limited Page 7 / 41 Next Generation Signal Enhancement 5. Functional Description of BTS Link-104/108 Repeater 5.1.

MOU Installation As mentioned earlier in this document, the MOU is placed at indoor location, which is close to the BTS from where the signals are to be fed through directional coupler. Following points need consideration: • The MOU should be installed at the spot where optical fiber ends are terminated and is a secured place where unauthorized access is avoided. • The length of RF coaxial cable route from MOU to the BTS via directional coupler should also not be excessive & sharp bends are to be avoided to minimize losses. • MOU is operated from –48 V DC, this supply either from battery or from a separate power pack operated through AC should be available. • The site should be easily accessible by the maintenance staff. • The environment should be free from excessive moisture, chemical fumes and ultra-violet radiations. • The environment is not subjected to any Automobile Ignition noise, Generator noise etc. Installation Tools a. Standard wrenches/screwdrivers/cable stripper/cable cutter/pliers set for installing the system and antennas. (Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations for installing the antennas). b. RF cable connecting tool for fixing connectors. c. Multi-meter. d. Optical power Meter. Termination/Connections at MOU: Connections as detailed below need to be carried out: • Optical fibers for connectivity to SBROUs at different locations are required to be terminated on MOU. Two fibers are needed for each of the SBROUs. • RF connection for transfer of signals from/to BTS. • Power connection for extending –48 V DC to MOU.

Continuity of each fiber to the respective ROU should be ensured. The system should not be switched ON till the installation is completed and settings in the system are made. No optical connector should be left open. Commissioning MOU: Preliminary verify the correct operation of MOU: • Visual inspection of MOU cards before use, for any mechanical or component damage. • Insert the cards in the designated slot only. • Switch-ON the MOU sub rack. • Measure the optical power at each of the optical ports in DL. • Verify the LED status through CMC software. Important: a. Continuity/short circuiting of RF wherever used should be checked before making connections. b. Continuity of each fiber to the respective SBROU should be ensured. c. The system should not be switched ON till the installation is completed and certain settings for the system is made. d. No optical connector should be left open.

Optical Fiber Laying The connectivity between the MOU and SBROUs at different sites is through optical fibers. In case the fibers are not available, the laying of optical fiber cable has to be undertaken. Single mode fibers are used for which two fibers are required between the MOU and each of the SBROUs. Depending on the situation, the type of optical fiber cable could be of aerial type or of buried type. In aerial type, the OFC is firmly fixed/clamped on the poles/pillars in the open atmosphere and such cables are normally armored to provide adequate protection/strength. The advantage of using such able is that the installation job can be completed in less time. However, the cost of the cable is higher. Whereas the buried type, the OFC is placed in pipes which are laid underground. A variety of cable designs are available to meet the requirements of different installations. Some of the designs are given below: • Loose tube construction: The fiber lies loosely inside a surrounding plastic tube so that it can adjust itself when the cable is bent; micro bending is almost completely eliminated by this technique. Loose tube cables are preferred for long distance links and for almost all outdoor applications. • Tight buffer construction: The buffered fiber is completely enclosed in a cushioning material (secondary coating up to an external diameter of 900 micro meters) to improve crush resistance and vibration isolation, minimizing micro bending. Tight buffer cables are usually adopted for outdoor applications because they offer small cross-section dimensions and small bending radius. Termination of fibers on MOU and SBROU Under the normal circumstances, two fibers are utilized for connecting MOU to a particular SBROU, one for the UL & other for the DL path. Every fiber must be labeled in order to indicate the connection particulars & route. Sharp bends on the pigtails are to be avoided while making connections. The optical connectors must be cleaned thoroughly to avoid entry of dust and obstructions to the optical signals. The guidelines for OFC laying are: • The exact route may be decided before starting the laying work. • Extra length of OFC may be kept for future use at each end. • The OFC should be free from all optical connectors and should be sealed at both the ends at the time of laying. • Sharp bends, extra pressure and pull should be avoided during laying to avoid damage to the fibers. • Proper splicing should be carried out for minimum splice losses. All Rights Reserved Shyam Telecom Limited Page 32 / 41 Next Generation Signal Enhancement • All technical specifications from the OFC supplier should be followed. • The termination of OFC at each end should be done at FDFs, which should be located close to the equipment. • Connection between the OFC (terminated at FDF) and the equipment should be carried out through optical jumpers with FCPC connectors. 8.4. Installation-SBROU Outdoor Coverage: Following points need to be considered • Availability of AC mains in the range 140-270V 47/63 Hz for energizing the SBROU • It is installed at outdoor site, so it should be in the secured area where unauthorized access is avoided. • The site should be close to the fiber termination point. • It is mounted either on pole or on the wall; enough space should be available for opening the unit door for testing & maintenance staff. • Outdoor antenna with proper frequency band & gain is installed outside preferable at a height for distribution of signals to the mobile users. Termination/Connections at SBROU: Connections as detailed below need to be carried out: • Optical fibers for connectivity to MOU. Two fibers are needed for each of the SBROUs. • RF connection for transfer of signals from/to antennas. • Power connection to the AC mains. • Grounding of the unit. Commissioning SBROU: • After making the desired connections, Switch “ON” The power supply. • Check the LED status at ROU. • Measure the Optical Output Power. It should be +4±1dBm. • If any Parameter is not within the specified limits, check the connections and observe for the alarm.

System Maintenance 9.1. General The system normally operates without any operator intervention or maintenance. If, in the unlikely event of a unit failure, the field replaceable units (antenna unit, cables) should be checked for faults and the system restored. The faulty unit can be removed and replaced with a spare while the rest of the system is still operating. Soldering or local repair of the modules should be avoided from better maintenance point of view. Faulty module/unit should be replaced with genuine spares from Shyam Telecom Limited only. The power supply of the faulty unit should be isolated from AC mains and DC power before any module is replaced. In the event of a system malfunction, the status of the antenna systems should be checked as well as the continuity of the cabling before replacing any modules within the unit. 9.2. Preventative Maintenance The BTS Link-104/108 does not require any preventative maintenance. However, some of the common observations as tabulated below are possible: Observation Remark No communication between MOU & ROUs a) Check if the MOU is ON. If it is not ON, check the availability of –48 V DC for MOU. Make sure that – 48 V is available. b) Check the alarms, if Laser diode/photo diode failure is indicated. Verify functioning of OTX unit by replacing with working unit. Also clean the optical connectors wherever provided. c) Check the optical power at each port connected to the SBROUs. If it is available at each of the ports, check the optical connectivity between MOU and SBROUs. RF power high in DL at Check for the indication for alarm and insert an ROU additional attenuator to reduce the RF power. RF power low in DL at Check for the indication for alarm and adjust the SBROU attenuator to enhance the RF power. Power high UL at MOU Reduce the level by inserting additional attenuator. RSSI LOW/HIGH DL at Adjust the attenuator in order to get rid off the alarm. MOU Also check the RF cable between the antenna and the MOU.
