In-building weak signals are produced by a variety of reasons, including LEED construction, base station position, building position, construction material, in-building content, etc. Within a building the cell signals can be strong near the external walls and become non-existent as the signals try to propagate within the building. Typical in-building signal loss can be seen in Table 1. Substance Drywall Plywood Cubicle (each) Glass (no shielding) Low-e Glass Concrete Lead Cellular 800/900 MHz PCS / AWS 1700/2100 MHz 2dB 1dB 1dB 2dB 15dB 18dB 45dB 3dB 3dB 2dB 3dB 19dB 22dB 52dB Table 1: Typical Signal Loss in Buildings Signal loss is a key term used in the cellular industry. For each 3dB of loss in signal strength, this represents the ability to make a call or not. The range of operable cell signals can extend from very strong -50dB signals—when a subscriber is standing next to a cell tower—to very weak signals of -95dB or weaker. At -95dB, a call may get through at times, but the subscriber will be frustrated by the number of dropped calls and overall poor call quality. Also data applications are much more vulnerable to weak signals, causing constant retransmissions and resulting in reduced data rates. In-building DAS can eliminate problems associated with signal proliferation, coverage, and capacity for voice and data applications. In-building systems work by distributing cell signals throughout an interior space: the signal is typically brought to the building using roof-mounted donor antennas or with a base station (BTS) installed in the telecommunications equipment room. The donor antennas or BTS is then connected to the DAS using cabling. The DAS network of antennas is placed strategically throughout the building to provide voice and data services. Product Description The CP4 Coverage Node (CP4) is designed to provide 2G, 3G & 4G communications within a building covering 5,000 square feet of coverage at each location supporting an Omni or directional antenna. The product provides reliable cellular communications within all types of in-building environments. The major features include high speed data services, low power operation, alarm triggers, remote access and status reporting. The CP4 is part of the Intelligent Distributed Amplifier System (IDAS) family of products and supports Cellular, PCS, LTE and AWS commercial cellular communications as well as public safety radio communications. The IDAS works with multiple coverage nodes strategically placed within the building to provide reliable texting, data, and voice communications. All coverage nodes in the system are networked together to deliver a balanced and reliable signal throughout the facility. The head end unit manages all of the amplifiers in a system along with local and remote access for monitoring and status checking. Automatic Shutdown The detected power levels are monitored by a microcontroller in the CP4. The microcontroller limits the maximum output power to keep the amplifiers linear without interfering with the network power control. The CP4 will also detect low-level self-oscillation and corrects it in real-time. During installation the CP4 alerts the user with LED outputs to adjust the position of the antennas if the unit is selfoscillating to clear the issue. If the microcontroller cannot correct the self-oscillation it will shut the unit down to protect the network and notify the user with LED outputs on the unit. To resolve oscillation, increase the antenna separation between in-building antennas or provide improved isolation from the outside donor antennas and the in-building antennas. This isolation should be in the order of 70 dB and is usually obtained by mounting the outside antenna away from the edges of the roof. The use of window mounts or other non-rooftop mountings should be avoided. Authorized Equipment The CP4 has been tested using the antennas and cable.

Measurement of Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) should be recorded throughout the building in all areas where mobile broadband coverage is desired. RSSI levels around the exterior of the building as well as on the rooftop or as close to the point where the exterior antenna will be installed should also be recorded. RSSI readings at the position where the outside antenna will be installed should be greater than –90 dBm. Successful installations may be made with lower readings and engineering support will be required. The exact location of the proposed outside antenna should be measured with a GPS unit and the coordinates of the cell sites closest to the building in which the system is being installed should be obtained. With these coordinates the distance and bearing to each of the local cell sites can be computed and made available to the installation team. The first choice should be the closest site unless there is blockage in the form of buildings or terrain between the building and this cell site. If blockage exists an alternate site may be available. If GPS coordinates are not available there is an alternative method of locating the dominant site: connect a handset via SMA female to N male adapter to the directional donor antenna. Rotate the antenna until maximum RSSI readings are obtained and secure it. The location of the CP4 and the interior antennas should be determined through the use of floor plans of the building in which the system is to be installed. It is important to locate the CP4 as close as possible to the antenna to keep the coax runs as short as possible. A maximum length of 150 feet is suggested from the riser tap to the CP4 10 although longer runs might be accommodated. This assumes that a coax with loss at 1900 MHz of approximately 8.0 dB per 100 feet is used. The coax used should be a nominal RG-11 type with a flame retardant rating except when installed in space where moving air (heating and/or cooling) exists. In hi h ase the oa ust e ple u ated. Of p i a o e is the isolatio et ee the outside antenna and the inside antennas. Physical Installation You must obtain express consent of an FCC Licensee prior to the installation of an industrial signal booster. A contact list of each licensee is provided in this manual. The coaxial cable discussed above should be pulled from the rooftop location to the space designated for the head-end installation. To meet FCC Part 27.50 compliance, the installation height of the donor antenna for an AWS band (1700/2100 MHz) operation is limited to 10 meters above ground. Additional coax should be pulled from the head-end to where power splitters are located and thus to the position designated for each CP4 and associated antennas. Usually this is accomplished by using existing cableways and running the cable above suspended ceilings. In many cases the Omni-directional antennas can be located above the suspended ceilings however, when this is not possible, alternatives such as ceiling or wall mounted antennas may be used. When mounting the CP4, take care to avoid areas of high heat or extreme cold. In general, do not place the unit on or near the top of high ceilings, by heaters or in cold storage areas. The CP4 provides the following visual diagnostics using the two LED lights. Top LED power status Power feed is good. Power level is low. Need to check connections. Power level is not adequate. Check power source as well as connections. Bottom LED RF status RF feed is good. RF signal level is low. Need to check connections. RF signal level is not adequate. Check RF source as well as connections. Not connected to head-end when blinking red LED. Check status of head-end and all connections, cable, and components. Unit is self-oscillating and the coverage antenna needs to be installed at least 6 feet away for the unit. 11 Contact Information To consult with a Whoop Wireless directly please call us at (888) 983-7381 or email at info@whoopwireless.com.
