3.2. Definitions 
Wayside Radio Unit (WRU): Chassis containing radio equipment in charge of ground-train data 
communications. WRUs are controlled by the Wayside Transmission Unit (WTU).  
The Wayside Radio Equipment (WRE) is made of either one or two (configuration dependent) 
redundant WRUs and the interface board to the WTU. This is the entire equipment chassis and 
associated boards that are being FCC Certified.  Under normal operation, only one RF Board 
of the WRE is active at a time.  
A Wayside Cell Controller (WCC) includes two redundant WTU.

Siemens Transportation Systems exclusive property 
The Carborne Radio Equipment (CRE) is made of one CRU and the interface board and the 
subway controller. This is the entire equipment RF board chassis and associated boards that 
are being FCC Certified as installed in the carborne transmission unit (CTU). 
Carborne Radio Unit (CRU): radio equipment in charge of train-ground data communications. 
CRU’s are controlled by an onboard controller system.  
4. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 
Before installation of any WRU, the WRU will be tested at the factory to ensure each WRU is manufactured to 
specifications.   Each WRU will be shipped with the factory test reports.  Using the minimum cable path loss 
specified in the FCC Certification Test Report as listed in the configuration diagrams and using power 
measurement data collected using the following RF test instructions (power measured at WTU output 
connector for wayside units and at the antenna connector for carborne units) will enable the power delivered 
to an antenna to be calculated as needed.  This technique was coordinated with the FCC and will enable 
compliance with the FCC requirements to be shown without the necessity of shutting down a portion of the 
subway to prevent endangering personnel performing measurement or maintenance tasks on the subway 
while the cars are in transit. The calculation will be compared to the maximum power level that may be 
delivered to any individual antenna whether a single antenna or one antenna in a quad array.  As long as the 
calculated power for wayside units and measured antenna input power for carborne units is less than the 
maximum power permitted as listed in the TEST RECORD that was presented in the test data that formed 
the basis of the FCC authorization, compliance with the FCC requirements is assured. 
5.  RF TEST INSTRUCTIONS (WAYSIDE) 
1.  RF coaxial cable tests - this test will be performed using the Anritsu Site Master 251C Antenna & Cable 
Analyzer.  The Anritsu 251C will be used to measure power output at point “A”.  This reading will be 
recorded in the WRE Power Output column of the Test Record Form in Annex TR and will use the Power 
Meter Function of the Anritsu 251C.  The Anritsu 251C will also be used to measure reflected power in 
the cable system between the lightning arrestor to the antenna (“B” to “C”).  This reading will be recorded 
in the Cable Reflected Power Loss column of the Test Record Form in Annex TR.  These tests will be as 
per Figure 5.1 & 5.2 below and are indicators of overall system quality. Shown is a dual and quad 
antenna array, but any configuration shown in the annexes can be used.

2.  RF measurement of the radio. This test measures the RF output of each WRE.  The WRE under this test 
will be placed in continuous transmit mode (5 sec on/5 Sec off). Measurement will be accomplished using 
the RF Power Meter Option of the Anritsu Site Mater 251C.  This reading will be recorded in the WRE RF 
Power Measurement Column of the Test Record Form in Annex TR.  This value together with the 
minimum specified path loss for any configuration and antenna gain will be used to determine compliance 
with the RF output requirements. The configuration of this test is outlined in figure 5.2 below.  The 1.5 
meter test cable loss will be measured prior to testing and this loss will be added to the RF power output.

3.  RF measurement of system at 100 ft.  This measurement will be performed using a RF Power Meter, 6  
dB Horn antenna, and a 1.5 meter coaxial cable at a distance of 100 feet from the antenna (north & 
south).  These measurements will be made with the WRE in continuous transmit mode.  The 
measurements will be recorded in the RF Power Measurement at 100 Ft. column in the Test Record

5.  During the operational life of the RF system, these tests may be conducted in any order according to 
maintenance activities or failure detection reports.  For a specific antenna configuration, and WRE 
configuration, there is a minimum attenuation in the coaxial cable system between the WRE and the antenna.  
This is outlined in the Wayside antenna configuration guidelines.

6.  After any maintenance activity involving a modification or change of the coaxial cable wiring or RF 
components, all tests will be conducted in order to check the compliance of the RF installation.  The 
reference for all tests will be a RF configuration sheet established for each configuration. It indicates all RF 
characteristics of a specific configuration, and particularly the reference values used for compliance check to 
the FCC approval test for the specific configuration. 
6.  RF TEST INSTRUCTIONS (CARBORNE) 
1.  RF coaxial cable tests - this test will be performed using the Anritsu Site Master 251C Antenna & Cable 
Analyzer.  The Anritsu 251C will be used to measure power output at point “A”.  This reading will be recorded 
in the CRE Power Output column of the Test Record Form in Annex TR and, together with antenna gain, will 
be used to determine compliance with the RF output power requirement.  The Anritsu 251C will also be used 
to measure reflected power in the cable system between the lightning arrestor to the antenna (“B” to “C”).  
This reading will be recorded in the Cable Reflected Power Loss column of the Test Record Form in Annex 
TR.  These tests will be as per Figure 6.1 below:

dB Horn antenna, and a 1.5 meter coaxial cable at a distance of 50 feet from the antenna.  These 
measurements will be made with the CRE in continuous transmit mode.  The measurements will be recorded 
in the RF Power Measurement at 50-Ft. column in the Test Record Form in Annex TR.  This test is detailed in 
Figure 6.2 below.

Note 1: FCC limit must be higher than Calculated/measured value.  If not insert attenuation in 1 dB steps at CTU output to lower the RF power output. 
If power output measurements are made at the CRE output, compliance must be determined by calculating power levels for both a and b outputs.   
If power output measurements are made at the antenna input port, this measured value is listed in Column C and then compared    
directly to the FCC limit.             
Note 2:  If power output of the CRE is measured, subtract the specified path loss in dB to determine to available input power to the antenna. 
Note 3: The above table is provided as an example for this specific Canarsie installation and is preliminary.  For other applications, the table will be 
modified for the specific layout and will be made available.
