2.1.4 Checking the Grounding System
The grounding regulations and resistance requirements (including the lightning
protection requirements) are as follows:
The communication equipment should be well grounded for reliable operation. Good
grounding ensures lightning protection and interference resistance. The grounding
cables in the equipment room should be routed in a radiating or flat way. Three
independent grounding cables should be used: The protection ground of the DC power
distribution system, the work ground of the power system and the lightning protection
ground.
The equipment adopts joint grounding with the grounding resistance less than 1 Ω.
Generally, the grounding resistance of BTSB should be less than 5 Ω. The engineering
requires the grounding resistance to be the smallest possible. The magnitude of
grounding resistance is affected by grounding post resistance, leading wire resistance,
contact resistance between the grounding post and soil as well as the soil type. The
greatest impact on grounding resistance comes from soil type. In areas with poor soil
conditions, some resistance-reducing agent (such as propenamide) may be added
around the grounding stake to meet the requirements. Changes in temperature will also
cause variations in resistance. In cold areas, the impact of temperature on the resistance
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
2-6
may be reduced by burying the stake deeply into the ground. Grounding stakes are
usually made of galvanized materials in proper size. The connection cables from the
grounding stake to the equipment should adopt copper-sheathed wires of good
conductivity (core wire section area less than 50 mm2, and length as short as possible).
If necessary, anti-erosion protection can be provided to the grounding connection parts
to guarantee low-resistance connection.
The working ground refers to the loop formed through the earth to transmit energy and
information. For instance, the 3-phase AC power supply neutral line ground and the
positive battery ground are both working grounds. This grounding approach can resist
electromagnetic interference and cross talk.
The protection ground refers to the grounding of the metal shell of the power supply
equipment to prevent hazards to human body due to power leakage.
In addition, the ground for lightning protection should be used to prevent lightning
stroke from damaging the equipment and to protect the safety of lives and properties.
2.1.5 Checking the Outdoor Installation Environment for the Antenna Feeder
System
1. Check whether the height and size of the feeder window comply with the
requirements of the BTSB equipment and the engineering design drawing.
2. Check whether the height, weight bearing and grounding of the outdoor cabling
rack comply with the engineering design.
3. Check whether the height, weight bearing and grounding of the indoor cabling
rack comply with the engineering design.
4. Check the height, diameter, weight bearing, wind resistance, grounding,
lightning protection and position of the antenna pole of the BTSB on the roof to
make sure they comply with the BTSB equipment requirements and the
engineering design drawing.
5. Check the height, diameter, weight bearing, wind resistance, grounding,
lightning protection and position of the antenna pole of the BTSB on the iron
tower to make sure they comply with the BTSB equipment requirements and the
engineering design drawing.
Chapter 2 Installation Preparations
2-7
2.1.6 Checking the Safety Conditions
Appropriate fire-fighting devices should be equipped in the equipment room, such as a
certain quantity of portable powder fire-extinguishers. As for a large equipment room, a
complete set of automatic fire-fighting system should be equipped. No inflammable or
explosive articles should be placed in the equipment room.
1. Storage of flammable and explosive materials in the equipment room is strictly
prohibited and necessary firefighting equipment must be installed.
2. Different outlets in the equipment room shall bear noticeable marks, and
dynamic electricity and lighting electricity should be noticeably differentiated.
3. The equipment room should be far from high-voltage power lines, strong
magnetic fields, strong electric sparks, or other factors that may threaten the
security of the equipment room.
4. Reserved holes in the floors should be covered with safety cover plates.
5. Proper lightning protection facilities should be in place before the power lines
and transmission lines are led into the equipment room.
2.1.7 Checking Other Auxiliary Equipment
Check the following items against the configuration requirements specified in the
contract:
1. Check whether the external power supply and the power cable connecting the
racks are ready.
2. Check whether the E1 cable connecting the BTSB and the BSCB is ready.

End B of the power cable on the busbar usually has been connected before delivery. If
the backplane of the plug-in box has been installed, the End A of the cable has been
connected to the backplane. Only when the equipment capacity is to be expanded or the
backplane is to be replaced, the power cables need to be connected on site.
1. Connection between the DC distribution cabinet and the DC distribution panel
The PE grounding bar of the DC distribution cabinet must be reliably connected
to the protective grounding bar provided by the carrier through the yellow/green
wire with the copper core, plastic insulation layer and the same diameter as the
power cable.
The two -48V terminal blocks of the DC distribution cabinet should be reliably
connected to the -48V DC negative busbars of the active/standby DC
distribution panels respectively. The GND terminal blocks of the DC distribution
cabinet should be reliably connected to the -48V DC positive busbars of the
active/standby DC distribution panels respectively.
If there is no DC distribution cabinet, PE wiring terminals of the cabinets must
be reliably connected with the protective terminal blocks provided by the carrier.
The power cables led out from -48 V and GND wiring terminals of each cabinet
are directly connected to the -48V DC negative busbar and -48V DC positive
busbar of the DC distribution panel.
2. Connection between the DC distribution cabinet and the cabinet
Connect one end of the -48V power cable (blue, 16 mm2) to the -48V wiring
terminal on the filter of the cabinet, and the other end to the -48V busbar of the
DC distribution cabinet.

connected to the PE wiring terminal on the P power supply of the cabinet, and
the other end to the PE busbar of the DC distribution cabinet.
3. Intra-module cabinet cascading
In the same module, the GND wiring terminals of each cabinet should be
connected with each other via a shorted cable.
4. Precautions for connecting power cables
While fixing the lug at one end of the DC distribution frame, add the flat washer
and spring washer to make sure that the lug is reliably fixed and that the cable
and wiring bar are in good contact to minimize the contact resistance. For details,

When installing lugs, if two or more cables need to be installed on one wiring
post, the lugs should be crossed or installed in a back-to-back way, instead of
being overlapped. If they must be overlapped, they should be bent into 45o or
90o before installation. Note that the big lug should be put under the small one.
It is recommended to adopt this method in all the places where the lugs need to
be installed. For details, see Fig. 5.3-5.

6 Grounding System Installation
Summary:
z Overview of BTSB grounding system installation
z Installation procedure of the BTSB grounding system
6.1 Grounding System Overview
This section describes the grounding of the BTSB equipment and the installation of the
grounding device accessories required for the BTSB installation. It covers the
installation of the grounding copper bar, the feeder grounding clip and the lightning
arrester.
The purpose of grounding is to ensure the safety of human body and equipment and to
improve the capability of the equipment to resist electromagnetic interference.
The grounding system consists of indoor part, outdoor part and underground ground
grid of the building.
As to the engineering, the user is responsible for the basic ground grid construction of
the grounding system, the grounding engineering of the iron tower and the building,
and the provision of the connecting point for the indoor and the outdoor grounding
copper bars to connect the ground grid via separate 50 mm2 wires, as shown in Fig.
6.1-1.
The wire of the indoor rack protection ground (PGND) is connected to the indoor
grounding copper bar.
The wire of the BTSB rack working ground (–48VGND) is connected to the working
ground terminal of the BTSB DC power rack.
To ground the lightning arrester, connect it to the outdoor grounding copper bar with a
wire. To ground the feeder, connect each feeder to the outdoor grounding copper bar
through a grounding clip before it enters the equipment room. This is shown in Fig.
6.1-1.

6.2 Installing the Grounding System
6.2.1 Installing the Outdoor Grounding Copper Bar
The outdoor grounding copper bar is used for lightning protection grounding. It is
usually installed on the wall outside the feeder window. The best place for it is right
under the feeder window or on the rainproof wall of the feeder well on the roof top. In
principle, it is better to put it close to the feeder window.
During the practical installation, first determine the installation position of the
grounding copper bar by following the engineering design drawing, and then install the
grounding copper bar on the wall with the expansion bolts. See Fig. 6.2-1 for the
structure of the grounding copper bar.
Fig. 6.2-1 Appearance of the Grounding Copper Bar
6.2.2 Installing the Feeder Grounding Clip
Caution:
No installation of grounding clip shall be performed in case of any lightning stroke, lest
bodily injury may be incurred.
When installing the grounding clip, keep the feeder at the joint of the grounding clip
and the feeder straight.
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
6-4
6.2.2.1 Grounding Principles of the Main Feeders
1. Usually, each main feeder should be grounded with grounding clips at least at
three positions: on the tower platform, at the place where the main feeder leaves
the tower for the outdoor cabling rack, and before the cable enters the equipment
room. When the main feeder is over 60m, grounding clips should be added in
the middle of it. Generally, a grounding clip is installed every 20m on the feeder.
2. The antenna feeder system, antenna support and new cabling rack installed on
the roof top should be welded to the lightning protection grid of the building.
The feeder should also be grounded at three positions: where it leaves the
antenna pole, where it leaves the roof top, and where it enters the equipment
room.
3. When the main feeder enters the equipment room from the roof top along the
wall, the outdoor cabling ladder provided by the network operator must be
grounded. If not, urge the network operator to finish it as soon as possible.
6.2.2.2 Installing the Grounding Clip
1. Prepare the tools: Paper cutter, flathead screwdrivers, wrench and sharp-nose
pliers.
2. Select a proper installation position for the grounding clip. Cut open the sheath
of the 7/8" feeder to the size of the grounding clip. The structure of the
grounding clip is shown in Fig. 6.2-2.

3. Lead the grounding cable of the feeder lightning grounding clip to the ground
grid. No reverse direction is allowed. The angle formed by the grounding cable
and the main feeder should not be more than 15o. No reverse folding is allowed.
In the case the antenna feeder system is installed on the tower, the grounding
cable of the grounding clip should be led downward along the tower body.
In the case the antenna feeder system is installed on the roof top, the grounding
cable of the grounding clip should be led close to the building lightning
protection grid.
4. Before installing the grounding clip, wrap the grounding cable at the grounding
clip end that is close to the grounding cable copper sheet with the waterproof
adhesive tape, as shown in Fig. 6.2-3. This can improve the sealing effect and
prevent the rain from falling into the feeder interior along the grounding cable.
Fig. 6.2-3 Wrapping the Grounding Cable of the Grounding Clip with Waterproof Tape
5. Clamp the feeder external conductor with the grounding cable copper sheet and
the locking spring plate, so that the grounding cable copper sheet and the feeder
external conductor are fully meshed.
6. Take the following steps to conduct the waterproof treatment to the joint of the
grounding clip and the feeder:
1) First wrap the waterproof adhesive tapes and then wrap the PVC tapes.
2) To wrap the waterproof adhesive tapes, apply them layer by layer from bottom
to top first, then from top to bottom once again, and finally from bottom to top
thrice, that is, wrap three layers of them. During the process, make sure the
upper layer overlaps the lower layer by about half the width of the tapes.
7. The grounding end of the grounding clip can be connected to the main tower
body or the outdoor cabling rack (connected to the lightning protection grid of
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
6-6
the building) on the roof top. Remove paint and oxide within the radius of about
13 mm at the connection place, and cover the clean area with antioxidant to
ensure good electric contact. When the grounding end is connected, paint
another coat of antirust paint.
8. Before the main feeder enters the room, the grounding end of the grounding clip
can be connected to the outdoor grounding bar.
6.2.3 Installing the Indoor Lightning Arrester
For the wide-band lightning arrester that need not be grounded separately, you may
directly connect it in serial to the place between the main feeder and the indoor cabinet
top jumper. During the installation, the lightning arrester and indoor equipment as the
cabling rack should be insulated.
For the lightning arrester that need be grounded, a lightning arrester frame should be
provided. Please refer to the assembly instructions provided by the supplier for the
assembling of the lightning arrester frame. The installation steps are as follows:
1. Install the lightning arrester on its frame in advance.
During the installation, please note that the connectors at both ends of the
lightning arrester are different: One end is a DIN male connector (DIN-M) and
the other is a DIN female connector (DIN-F). Make sure that the DIN-M
connector of all the lightning arresters installed on the frame are in the same
direction, and the DIN-F connector of all the lightning arresters are in the same
direction. The lightning arrester should be securely installed on the frame and in
close contact with the frame.
2. Fix the assembled lightning arrester to the cabling rack.
Plan the installation position carefully to make both the main feeder and the
cabinet top jumper easily be connected to the lightning arrester and to enable
easy cabling.
The lower part of the lightning arrester frame that is secured to the cabling rack
can be adjusted according to the width of the cabling rack.
When the lightning arrester frame is installed on the cabling rack, make sure that
its DIN-M connector points to the main feeder and its DIN-F connector points to
the connection line from the jumper to the rack.
Chapter 6 Grounding System Installation

3. The lightning arrester is installed indoor. Its grounding cable should be
connected to the outdoor grounding copper bar and should not contact with the
conductor of the indoor cabling rack. The lightning arrester frame is insulated
from the cabling rack.
The installation of the lightning arrester frame is shown in Fig. 6.2-4.

They are usually used to connect a remote RF cabinet.
The optical fiber jumpers connect the blind match connectors of the BDS backplane
RIM0 master/slave slots to the optical adaptors on the two BIM6 interface boards. The
jumpers are available with the following types: MTP4-LC-0.5M, BMTP8-LC-0.5M
and BMTP12-LC-0.5M, and the optical fibers are connected in the spectrum order of
blue, orange, green, brown, gray, white, red, black, yellow, purple, pink and cyan.
When installing optical fibers, make sure that the bending radius is larger than 40 mm
to prevent any damages. In addition, the optical fibers should not be bundled too tight
and there should be some space kept between an optical fiber and the clips.
7.2.4 Installing Monitoring Cables in the BDS
The internal monitoring cables of the BDS include cables for front access control
monitoring, CCM board temperature monitoring, CHM board temperature monitoring,
flooding monitoring and fan monitoring.
The internal monitoring cables adopt the one-to-eight structure with the ends being A
and B1 ~ B8. End A is connected to the X154EMSOCKET socket on the BDS
backplane; B1 is connected to the front door position switch along the right side of the
chassis; B2 is designed to be connected to the back door position switch (now idle); B3,
B4 and B5 are temperature sensors connected to the top of the CCM and CHM boards;
B6 is connected to the DB25 socket of the fan plug-in box backplane; B7 is to the
lightning-proof board of the BDS filter; B8 is to the flooding sensor (unnecessary when
the BDS is mounted on the RFS cabinet) at the lower right corner of the BDS.

z Structure of the BTSB main antenna feeder system
z Installation items and flow of the BTSB main antenna feeder system
z Installation procedure of the parts of the BTSB main antenna feeder
system
z Installation check and test for the antenna feeder part
z Waterproof treatment of the connectors
The configuration of the BTSB antenna system is closely related to network planning.
Different coverage areas and environments may require very different antenna feeder
systems. Before installation, network planning has to be predetermined and should
contain the layout, elevation, dip, gain and even diversity reception mode of the
antenna.
Proper installation of the antenna is essential to the communication performance of the
coverage areas and to the reliable operation of the mobile BTSB system. The antennas
installed should be in correct direction, including correct dip and azimuth of the
antenna in each sector. Besides, the antennas should have wind resistance capability
(i.e. capability to withstand wind at the speed of 150 km/h).
Install the feeder properly so as to minimize signal loss during transmission. Make sure
that it can operate reliably in all environments.
10.1 Preparation for Installing the Antenna Feeder System
This includes the preparations of staff, safety measures, tools and instruments, and
technical documents, and the installation environment check.
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-2
The installation of the antenna feeder equipment is important to the installation of the
BTSB equipment. Its construction quality is directly related to the operating
performance of the entire BTSB system. Moreover, most of the BTSB installation
engineering is the installation of the antenna feeder equipment that generally takes up
80% of the installation time of the whole BTSB system. The installation of the antenna
feeder equipment involves the installation of the antenna, the jumper, the routing of the
main feeder, and the installation of the lightning protection system and the GPS.
Different antenna may be used, and the installation method and procedure also vary
with the terrain, population density and installation environment. With the quality
guaranteed, the installation supervisor should have the antenna installed flexibly and
reasonably as required in specific situations by following the BTSB engineering design
documents and the installation instructions of the special antenna provided by the
manufacturer.
Prior to the installation of the antenna feeder system, inspect the qualification of the
installation staff to work at heights, check and prepare the installation environment, the
installation measures, the installation tools and the antenna feeder to be installed so that
the installation can be carried out successfully.
10.1.1 Preparation by Installation Personnel
The engineering of the antenna feeder is generally conducted by the antenna feeder
installation personnel under the supervision of the installation supervisor.
The installation supervisor should be familiar with the materials, tools and operation
methods for the antenna engineering, organize and coordinate the installation persons
for proper work with the spirit of top safety, especially in the operations on tower. The
engineering supervisor fills the engineering data with sincere attitude.
Requirements for the installation staff: Staff that can conduct the installation
professionally under the instruction of the supervisor. The staff working at heights
should have no acrophobia and be in good health. In addition, he should have the
qualification and certificate for working at heights, observe the requirements for using
the safety tools and have purchased life insurance policy. Besides, alcohol drinking is
prohibited.
10.1.2 Checking the Installation Environment
During the environment inspection, you should focus on the following: Whether the
Chapter 10 Main Antenna Feeder System Installation
10-3
outdoor lightning protection grounding cable has been in place with the core diameter
more than 50 mm2, whether the distances between the antenna lightning arrester, the
lightning protection grounding point, the outdoor cabling rack, and the antenna pole
meet the design requirement and whether the strength and the wind-withstanding
capability of the pole meet the design requirements. Check the necessary devices and
auxiliary materials and negotiate with the user for specific wiring for the main feeder.
As to the installation of the antenna support, the equipment supplier puts forward
requirements for the antenna structure and dimensions, while the network operator
completes the installation as parts of the equipment room accordingly.
The network operator is also responsible for the installation of the antenna feeder
installation environment such as the outdoor cabling rack, the lightning arrester, the
lightning protection grounding peg, and the outdoor lightning protection grounding
cable. The installation of the main feeder entry window requires the holing operation
on the wall or roof of the building. It may deal with the infrastructure of the equipment
room and should be implemented by the network operation, as a condition of the
equipment room.
10.1.3 Checking the Safety Measures
Caution:
Operators on the tower must wear safety belt. Persons under the tower must wear
safety helmet. Never climb the tower with loose clothes and slippery shoes.
1. Emphasize the safety precautions to the engineering staff.
2. Arrange the outdoor construction of the antenna feeder at daytime in clear
weather and without strong wind.
3. Set up distinct marks at the engineering site to keep off people irrelevant. The
persons under the tower are responsible for supervising the irrelative persons,
especially kids, to be away from the construction field. The tools used on the
tower, which may drop and injure the persons under the tower, must be treated
seriously. For example, the tools and metal installation parts are cased in the
canvas bag securely once they are not used. The canvas bag keeps enclosed
unless a tool or part is to be taken out.

10.1.4 Preparing Installation Tools
The installation tools comprise:
1. Measurement tools: Compass, multimeter, angle meter, tape
2. Communication tools: Two MSs
3. Hoisting tools: Pulley, rope to pull the main feeder
4. Special tools: Main feeder cutter, special tools for preparing main feeder
connectors
5. General-purpose tools: Adjustable wrench, sharp-nose pliers, diagonal pliers,
electrical knife, file, hacksaw
6. Safety protection tools: Safety belt (used by engineering staff who step out of
the platform on the tower), safety helmet, safety rope, thick uniform, RF-proof
clothing, canvas tool bag, gloves, multi-purpose power socket
7. Others: Standing ladder, wooden axle hoisting tool for the main feeder (this can
be borrowed from the local user).
10.2 Structure of the Antenna Feeder System

10.3 Installation Content and Flow
Caution:
1. Take careful precautions for the safety of yourself and the equipment during the
whole antenna installation process.
2. When adjusting the antenna that has started working, take certain measures (for
example, wear radiation-shielding clothing), and turn off the high power amplifier to
avoid the direct radiation of the antenna to human body.
10.3.1 Technical Parameters for Antenna Installation
1. Antenna height
It is determined by network planning.
2. Azimuth of antenna
It is determined by network planning.
3. Pitch angle of antenna
It is determined by network planning and is adjustable in the range of 0 °C ~ 10
°C.
4. Antenna direction
It is determined by the azimuth of the antenna. Two antennas in the same sector
should point to the same direction.
5. Distance between diversity antennas
The two antennas in the same sector are diversity receiving antenna to each
other with the same vertical height. The horizontal distance (d) is as large as
possible to satisfy the engineering requirements just by following the formula
below.
d ≥10 ~ 20λ (or H/d = 11), where d is the horizontal distance between the
diversity antennas, and H is the vertical height from the antenna to the floor. The
diversity distance of the 1900 M carrier shall be more than 1.5 m while that of
the 800 M carrier shall be more than 3.5 m.

10.4 Installing the Parts
10.4.1 Determining the Antenna Installation Position
During the installation, the antenna installation position should be determined
according to the antenna feeder installation drawing among the engineering design
drawings. If the antenna support is installed in a place different as that shown in the
engineering design drawing, second design should be done based on the network
coverage requirement of the local BTSB, antenna diversity requirement, antenna
azimuth and pitch angle. And design modification solution should be make then after
consultation with the user representative and the design institution, lest the network
coverage after the installation be affected.
10.4.2 Moving and Hoisting the Antenna
Caution:
Personnel both on and under the tower should coordinate to hoist the antenna. During
the hoisting process, the personnel under the tower should pull the antenna away from
the tower body by maneuvering the rope to keep the antenna from rubs with the tower
body.
In the case the antenna is to be installed on the tower, use the rope and pulley block to
hoist the antenna, the 3m antenna jumper and all the accessories (such as tools, safety
belts, adhesive tapes and straps) to the tower-top platform and place them in a safe
place. Take corresponding safety measures during the process. Small metal staff as
antenna fixing parts and wrenches should be put in a sealed canvas tool bag before
hoisting, as shown in Fig. 10.4-1.
Both ends of the directional antenna and the omni-antenna should be knotted for easy
coordination of the staff both on and under the tower during the hoisting.
In the case the antenna is to be installed on the roof, move the antenna and the
installation materials to the installation position manually.

10.4.3 Installing and Adjusting the Directional Antenna
Note:
The installation methods of antennas of different models vary from one
manufacturer to another. This section takes the KATHRAIN antenna as an
example to describe the antenna installation process. Please carefully read
the installation instructions provided along with the antenna during the
installation and install the antenna according to actual situation.
1. Initial assembly of the directional antenna fittings
The directional antenna has a number of installation fasteners. For example, the
KATHRAIN antenna has two types of fasteners: 738516 and 737974. Before
fixing the antenna, assemble fastener 737974 to the ends of the antenna, as
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-10
shown in Fig. 10.4-2, and then connect fasteners 737974 and 738516. Thus the
initial installation of the directional antenna is completed. All accessories must
be installed with spring and flat washers. Please refer to the instructions attached
to the product for descriptions of other fasteners for the antenna of other
manufacturers or of KATHRAIN.
Usually the antenna fixing accessories and the angle adjustment device
accessories have been installed on the antenna under the tower.
2. Initial fixing of the directional antenna on the antenna pole
Mount the directional antenna installed with clamp accessories on the antenna
pole: The screw should not be too tight that you are unable to adjust the
direction and the pitch angle of the antenna, nor too loose lest the antenna might
slip downward.
3. Adjusting the azimuth of the antenna
1) Use a compass to determine the azimuth of the antenna. And determine the
installation direction of the directional antenna according to the engineering
design drawing.
2) Turn the antenna slightly to adjust its facing direction, as shown in Fig. 10.4-2.
At the same time measure the direction of the antenna with a compass till the
error is within the engineering design requirements (generally not more than 5°).
3) Tighten the fastener 738516 after adjusting the azimuth of the antenna.

4. Adjusting the pitch angle of the antenna
1) Adjust the pitch angle of the dip meter to the angle required by the engineering
design.
2) Turn the top of the antenna slightly, let go or hold fast the antenna at its top.
Adjust the pitch angle of the antenna till the bead is centered when the adjusted
dip meter is next to the directional antenna, as shown in Fig. 10.4-3.
3) Tighten the fastener 737974 after adjusting the pitch angle of the antenna.

10.4.4 Installing and Adjusting the Omni-antenna
Take the following steps to install the omni-antenna:
1. Put the jacket at the antenna lower part close to the support backbone. The top of
the jacket should be flush with or slightly higher than the support top.
2. Fix the jacket at the antenna lower part and the support backbone at two points
with antenna fixing clips. They should be fixed tight enough to bear weight and
withstand wind, and should not be too loose or too tight lest the antenna jacket
be damaged.
3. Check the antenna verticality. The omni antenna must be vertical. Make sure the
antenna is vertical, and then fix it to the antenna pole.
4. Stick the support installed with the antenna out of the tower platform, and adjust
the support to make the antenna vertical.
10.4.5 Sealing the Connection between Jumper and Antenna
Note:
The antenna and the jumper can be connected and waterproof treatment can
be conducted on the joint before the antenna is fixed on the pole. This can
reduce the working time at heights and improve the joint connection and
waterproof quality.
Chapter 10 Main Antenna Feeder System Installation
10-13
The installation steps are as follows:
1. Align the connector of the antenna jumper to the antenna interface and screw it
tightly.
2. Perform waterproof treatment to the joint (See 10.6" Waterproof Treatment on
Joint" for details):
1) Wrap starting from the root of the antenna joint with waterproof adhesive tape in
the same direction as the fastening direction of the antenna jumper.
2) Stretch the waterproof adhesive tape to double its length, and apply it layer by
layer till it covers about 5 cm of the bottom of the feeder joint. During the
process, make sure the upper layer overlaps the lower layer by half the width of
the tape.
3) Grip the tape with hands to make the tape tightly adhered;
4) Apply the PVC tape layer by layer on top of the waterproof adhesive tape.
During the process, make sure the upper layer overlaps the lower layer by half
the width of the tape.
10.4.6 Installing the Feeder Window
Note:
The size of the feeder cable window provided by ZTE is 400 mm × 400 mm. It
is a four-hole window and 12 pieces of feeder cables can pass through it. A 300
mm × 300 mm hole should be drilled on the wall for the installation of this
feeder cable window. If the user provides a special feeder window, then make
the wall cavity according to the actual dimensions of the feeder window.
The feeder window is usually mounted on the wall outside the equipment room
between the indoor and the outdoor cabling racks.
If the main feeder window is to be installed on the building-top, sealing and waterproof
treatment should be conducted on it. You may use asphalt or glass cement to seal the
feeder window.
There are 4 holes in a feeder window through which a total of 12 feeder cables can pass
through, as shown in Fig. 10.4-4. Follow the steps below to install a feeder window.
1. Determine the installation position of the feeder window as required by the
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-14
engineering design drawing.
2. Make a cavity on the wall according to the size of the feeder window.
3. Use a percussion drill to drill holes for the expansion bolts and fix the main
board of the feeder window with expansion bolts.
4. The sealing gasket and sealing tube of the feeder window can be installed when
the main feeder is introduced into the room. See 10.4.7.6 "Running the Primary
Feeder Cable into the Equipment Room".
5. For cold areas with sand storms, even if the wall is thick, it is necessary to install
timber baffle plates inside the equipment room to keep warm and keep sands
outside.

10.4.7.1 Determining the Feeder Cable Route
During the engineering installation phase, the layout of the feeder should be
determined according to the feeder wiring drawing among the engineering design
drawings. If the layout of the feeder need be modified according to the practical
situation, you should consult the user representative and try to solve the problem as
early as possible. Please note that the length of the main feeder should be as short as
possible.
10.4.7.2 Making Connectors of the Primary Feeder Cable
Caution:
The preparation of the feeder connector is the most important part in the antenna feeder
installation engineering. The quality of the job directly relates to the equipment
operation and the network quality.
Since the cutting tool used is sharp, use it correctly to avoid body injury.
This section takes the Rosenberger’s 7/8" feeder connector as an example to describe
the preparation process. For the installation of the feeder connector of other
specifications or other manufacturers, please refer to their installation instructions.
Take the 7/8" main feeder connector as an example. The procedure to make the
connector is as follows:
1. The common cutting tool for making the feeder connector is shown in Fig.
10.4-6.
Fig. 10.4-6 Cutting Tool for the 7/8" Feeder Connector
2. Measure a straight feeder section of about 150 mm to be installed with the
connector, and cut and use a safety cutting tool to strip the feeder sheath 50 mm
away from the end.
Chapter 10 Main Antenna Feeder System Installation
10-17
3. Put the feeder into the notch of the cutter (EASIAX), leaving a length of four
sheath threads from the main blade. And then close the cutter handles. Since the
position of the cutter is determined according to the threads on the external
copper sheath of the feeder, the main blade should just be aligned to the crest at
the center of a thread of the feeder.
4. Turn the cutter in the direction as marked on the cutter till the handles are
completely closed and cut the internal and external copper conductors of the
feeder completely. At the same time, the auxiliary blade of the cutter cuts the
external plastic protection sheath of the feeder, as shown in Fig. 10.4-7.
Fig. 10.4-7 Cutting the Feeder with a Cutter
5. Check the cutting length of the feeder, as shown in Fig. 10.4-8.
Wave location
Fig. 10.4-8 Checking the Cutting Length of the Feeder
6. Separate the front part and back part of the feeder connector, and insert the back
part into the feeder till it contacts with the first corrugation of the feeder.
7. Firmly insert the tube expander of the cutter into the feeder and turn it left and
right to expand the external copper conductor of the feeder, so that it presses
against the back part of the feeder connector. This is shown in Fig. 10.4-9.

10-18
Fig. 10.4-9 Expanding the External Conductor of the Feeder with a Tube Expander
8. Check whether there is residual copper scraps. The external copper sheath
should be evenly expanded without burrs. Pull the back part of the feeder
connector outward while keeping it from slipping away from the feeder. Make it
again if necessary.
9. Connect the front part and the back part of the feeder connector, as shown in Fig.
10.4-10.
Fig. 10.4-10 Connecting the Front Part and the Back Part of the Feeder Connector
10. Screw the front part of the feeder connector, and fix it with an appropriate
wrench, so that it does not move against the feeder. Then screw the back part of
the feeder connector with the wrench till it is fixed, as shown in Fig. 10.4-11.

10.4.7.3 Cutting the Feeders
Caution:
When cutting the main feeder, label it at both ends. Temporary label can also be
attached to the middle of the feeder. It’s very important to keep all the labels consistent.
Otherwise, the feeder may not be correctly connected and the sectors may not
correspond to the feeder.
Usually the feeder is rolled over to the installation site. The length of the main feeder
should be exactly measured again on site according to the final route negotiated with
the user. The feeder should be cut into sections as required. The cutting steps are as
follows:
1. For the antenna feeder to be installed on the roof
1) Determine the length of the main feeder in each sector again with a tape measure
according to the actual route.
2) Cut the feeder to the length of the measured actual length plus 1 m to 2 m.
3) Attach the corresponding temporary labels (such as ANT1, ANT2, ANT3, ANT4,
ANT5 and ANT6) to both ends of a main feeder after cutting it. When the feeder
is installed, attach the formal label to it.
4) Move the cut feeders to the roof. During the process, take care that the feeders
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-20
are not damaged or pressed.
2. For the antenna feeder to be installed on the tower
1) Use roller support, pulley block and hoisting rope to lift one end of the feeder to
the tower top. The person on the ground cuts the feeder to the length with which
the feeder can reach the lightning arrester frame inside the equipment room (plus
certain redundancy). Attach temporary labels to the lower part of the feeder.
Once the feeder enters the equipment room, attach a formal label to it.
2) It is better to make the upper connector of the main feeder before hoisting it to
reduce the time that the staff works at heights and to better ensure the
installation quality of the feeder connector.
10.4.7.4 Raising the Main Feeder Cable of the Iron Tower
Caution:
During the hoisting, rough operations are not allowed, lest the sheath of the main
feeder be damaged or scratched. The partial damage of a single main feeder will cause
the whole cable be rejected as useless.
Take precautions for personal safety when hoisting the feeders.
If the antenna feeder system is to be installed on an iron tower, a pulley block should
be used to hoist the primary feeder cables, as shown in Fig. 10.4-12. For the installation,
you should follow the steps below:
1. Check again that the main feeder labels attached 0.3 m away from both ends of
the main feeder are correct.
2. Wrap the main feeder connector made under the tower with flax (or antistatic
packing bag together with foam) and strap it tightly.
3. Knot and fix the hoisting rope 0.4 m and 3.4 m away from the feeder connector
to help the staff both on and under the tower pull up the feeder and to prevent
the feeder and its connector from damage caused by their bumping into the
tower during the hoisting process.
4. Hoist the feeder to the tower platform and fix the upper end of the cable to a
proper place at several points, lest the cable fall down from the tower.

10.4.7.5 Laying and Fastening the Main Feeder Cable
1. Cabling principle of the main feeder
z The main feeder entering the equipment room from the feeder window and is
routed along the indoor cabling rack should be bound neatly without crossing.
z The main feeder that is routed along the indoor cabling rack and the cabling rack
on the tower should have no crossing.
z Make yourself familiar with the routing of the main feeder before cabling it. It is
better to take down its actual route on paper to avoid rework due to crossing the
cable.
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-22
z The minimum bending radius of the main feeder should not be less than 20
times the length of the radius of the main feeder. For one-time bending, the
minimum bending radius is 90 mm. The minimum bending radius of repeated
bends is 200 mm.
z The maximum spacing between the hangers is 1.65 m.
2. Cabling procedure of the main feeder
1) Pre-install the three-feeder clips every 1.5 meters (or according to the actual
condition of the iron tower, but no more than 1.65 meters) along the iron tower
or cabling rack. Note that the spacing should be as even as possible and the
direction of installing them should be the same. When installing two rows of
feeder clips inside the same cabling ladder, the two rows should be parallel and
arranged neatly. Fig. 10.4-13 shows the appearance of a three-feeder clip.
Fig. 10.4-13 Three-feeder Clip
2) Sort out the main feeders from the antenna to the equipment room inside.
3) Fix the main feeders from top to bottom and sort them out while attaching the
three-feeder clips. Fasten the feeder clips after smoothing the main feeders. Note
that you should keep the main feeders flat and straight rather than allowing any
bulge between two feeder clips or fixing the feeders at the two ends
simultaneously.
4) Fix the main feeders with three-feeder clips along the outdoor cabling ladders
prepared by the network operator for the main feeders to be routed along the
building top to the equipment room inside.

2. Installation procedure
1) Loosen the fixing hoop from the feeder window to the proper position with
reference to 10.4.6 "Installing the Feeder Window", and pull away the sealing
cover of the aperture to thread the feeders.
2) Lead the feeders into the equipment room: Two persons are needed to cooperate
with each other, one indoors and the other outdoors, to introduce the feeders
from the outdoor cabling racks into the indoor cabling racks. During this process,
care should be taken to avoid damaging the indoor equipment or damaging the
feeder due to improper force applied on the outdoor feeder. Fasten the fixing
hoop after pulling the feeders in place.
3) Do the following before cut the feeders:
z Check the labels:
Ensure that the temporary labels on the feeders are complete before feeder
cutting and are still attached on the feeders after cutting. This is very important
to avoid feeder chaos.
z Determine the cutting position:
When cutting the feeders, select the cutting position according to the equipment
room conditions (such as the rack installation position, the cabinet-top jumper
length, the lightning arrester configuration or the installation position of the
lightning arrester frame), the bending radius of the feeders and the cabling
requirements of the equipment room.
4) Prepare the indoor connectors for the main feeders.
5) Connect the main feeders to the lightning arresters.
If a lightning arrester is not grounded, it should be directly mounted onto the
feeders to ensure proper insulation between the lightning arrester and the cabling
rack.
If a lightning arrester is equipped with a lightning arrester frame, each feeder
should be thoroughly adjusted to ensure the screw threads properly fit in with
the lightning arrester when the main feed and the arrester are connected. For
details, refer to 6.2.3, "Installing the Indoor Lightning Arrester".
Chapter 10 Main Antenna Feeder System Installation
10-25
10.4.8 Installing the Indoor Jumpers
Indoor cabinet-top jumpers are used between the lightning arrester connected to the
main feeder and the rack. Usually the finished 2m cabinet-top jumpers are used, or the
jumpers can be prepared on site according to the actual length required.
If the 2 m finished jumpers are used, they can be directly installed between the
lightning arrester and the rack top.
If the jumpers are prepared on site, 1/2'' feeders should be prepared through cutting
according to the specific length of each jumper. Assemble proper feeder connectors
onto both ends of the feeders according to the feeder connector assembly instructions,
and connect the jumpers between the lightning arrester and rack top.

Installation standards involved in this figure:
1. The radio frequency antenna and GPS antenna must be installed within the 45°
protection angle for arrester.
2. If necessary, install independent arrester for the GPS antenna.
10.5.2 Testing the Antenna SWR
After installing all the antenna feeders, conduct the SWR test on each of them. The
measured SWR should be less than 1.5 and usually less than 1.3. If this is not satisfied,
check immediately the feeder connectors installed, antenna, feeders and lightning
arresters to find where the problem comes from. For the method of SWR test with
SiteMaster, refer to Appendix G.
10.6 Waterproof Treatment for the Connectors
Caution:
The waterproof sealing for the outdoor jumpers and the feeder grounding clips of the
antenna feeder system is an important part of the antenna feeder installation. It is of
special concern. In the installation process, make sure to use waterproof tapes properly
to ensure the quality of installing the antenna feeder system.
Use 1/2'' jumpers, generally the 3 m finished jumpers, between the antenna and main
feeder for transition. Connect the 1/2'' jumper and the feeder and seal their connectors
as follows:
1. Connect and fasten the antenna jumper and the main feeder connector.
2. Make waterproof treatment on the connectors in the following steps:
1) Cut waterproof adhesive tapes about 200 mm long.
2) Wrap the waterproof adhesive tapes from a low position where the connector is
connected and apply them about 200 mm long to fill the low-lying parts of the
connector, as shown in Fig. 10.6-1.
Chapter 10 Main Antenna Feeder System Installation
10-27
Fig. 10.6-1 Wrapping the Waterproof Adhesive Tapes (1)
3) Extend the adhesive tapes to double their length when wrapping them. The
direction of wrapping should be the same as the direction of screwing the feeder
connector, lest the feeder connector be loosened during the wrapping process.
4) As shown in Fig. 10.6-2, wrap the adhesive tapes layer by layer and then wrap
them again in the reverse direction. The upper layer covers the lower layer by
about 1/3 to avoid water penetration. Finally, reverse the direction and wrap
them layer by layer again. Apply the tape with three layers without any cut in the
entire process. Wrap the tapes around the feeder connector till they protrude
about 20 mm from the feeder connector.
Fig. 10.6-2 Wrapping the Waterproof Adhesive Tapes (2)
5) Grip the waterproof adhesive tapes after wrapping them to ensure firm bonding
between the tapes and the feeders/feeder connectors, as shown in Fig. 10.6-3.
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
10-28
Fig. 10.6-3 Wrapping the Waterproof Adhesive Tapes (3)
6) Apply two layers of the PVC tape on top of the waterproof adhesive tape.
During the process, make sure the upper layer overlaps the lower layer by half
the width of the tape.
7) Grip the PVC tapes and the waterproof adhesive tapes to make them tightly
adhered to each other.
8) Tie the two ends of the adhesive tape with straps to prevent it from being aged
or falling off.

11.1 Preparation for Installing the Antenna Feeder System
As the clock and frequency reference for CDMA, the GPS plays a very important role.
According to the passive distance measurement principles, GPS antenna receives the
navigation positioning signals from the GPS satellites and demodulates frequency and
clock signals through the GPS signal receiver for use by the related units of the CDMA
base station.
Requirements for the installation of the GPS antenna: The installation position of the
GPS antenna should have a broad view so that the GPS antenna can track satellites as
many as possible. Usually, select a safe place on the roof or at the lower part of the
tower and try to make the GPS feeder short to reduce attenuation.
Lightning protection requirement of the GPS antenna: The GPS antenna is usually
installed in the 45° lightning area of the iron tower. Otherwise, the user should make
and install a special lightning arrestor.
Please note that the pole fixing the GPS antenna must be grounded.
11.2 Structure of the Antenna Feeder System

connector.
2. Thread the connector through the GPS accessory tube and distribute the coaxial
cable from the GPS antenna to the GPS lightning arrester.
3. Screw the outdoor connector of the coaxial cable to the GPS antenna connector.
4. Keep the GPS antenna still while screwing the tube on the GPS antenna.
5. Fix the tube to the pole with a fixing clamp.
6. Cut the coaxial cable according to the installation of the GPS arrestor, make the
indoor connector of the cable and connect it with the lightning arrestor. Note that
the equipment end and the feeder end of the GPS lightning arrester must be
correctly connected.
7. Distribute the coaxial cable between the GPS lightning arrester and the GPS port
on the BTSB equipment.

11.4.2 Installing the Lightning Arrester
Each GPS has its own lightning arrester installed between the GPS antenna and the
BTSB rack. The lightning arrester should be connected to the outdoor grounding
copper bar via a 6 mm2 grounding cable. For the base station installed with a lightning
arrester frame, you may fix the GPS lightning arrester onto the frame. In this case, the
6 mm2 grounding cable is unnecessary. Be sure to connect the lightning arrester
correctly.

12.1 BTSB Board Types
The baseband system consists of the following boards:
The CHM implements Channel Elements (CEs) processing. The CE processing
modules of each baseband system form a series of baseband processing sharing pools.
The RIM implements forward signal summary and reverse signal distribution as the
interface between baseband and radio frequency. The RIM can run in active/standby
mode.
The CCM implements control over base stations and switching for the base station
networks. It can run in active/standby mode.
The DSM acts as the ABIS interface to the BSCB, and can run in active/standby mode.
The SNM acts as the SDH interface, and can run in active/standby mode.
The SAM monitors the environment.
The GCM provides an accurate GPS clock for the base station. It can run in
active/standby mode.
The BIM base station interface module implements interface transfer between the
active and standby BDSs, between baseband and radio frequency, and between the
basest ion and the base station controller.
The PD distributes the power.
The Radio Frequency System (RFS) is located between the baseband system and the
mobile station to implement air RF interface in the air, and data interface to the
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
12-2
baseband system at the wireline side. The RFS consists of the following boards:
The TRX implements signal frequency conversion and supports 6+1 backup.
The RMM provides interface between RF and baseband and can run in active/standby
mode.
The PA amplifies the power of forward signals and supports 6+1 backup for linear
power amplification.
The PIM provides interface for power amplification.
The RFE provides antenna feeder interface and reverse low noise amplification.
The BTM performs base station radio tests.
The SAM monitors the environment.
The TSM implements cross-OR operation on the TRX forward signals for backup.
The RSM implements cross-AND operation on the TRX reverse signals for backup.
The PD distributes the power.
12.2 RF Cabinet Boards
12.2.1 Receiver Front End (RFE)
The RFE module amplifies the reverse received signals with low noise, implements
detachment, filter, SWR and power check for received/sent signals, and extracts &
injects the BTM. Its performance has a direct impact on the transmission indices of the
whole BTSB system.
The system requires a single cabinet to provide 24-carrier/sector. To this end, linear
power amplifiers with 4-carrier are configured for the base station in most cases, and
single-carrier higher-power amplifiers are adopted in special cases. The RFE is
designed to adapt to all the possible configurations of the system, including the
single-rack 6-sector configuration.
The principles and functions of the RFE are as follows:
Integrate duplexer (DUP) and filter (DIV) into one box. Then each RFE consists of 5
modules of 4 types (DUP, DIV, 2XLNA and PVD) to bear 4-carrier forward signals and
two channels of reverse signals.
Chapter 12 Board Installation
12-3
Filter the weak signals received by an antenna and amplify them with low noise.
Distribute power for the signals amplified with low noise, output them to the RSM and
the TEST_PORT through two splitters.
Provide duplex functions.
Filter forward transmitting power signals.
Monitor the low noise amplifier state.
Check the standing wave of the transmission channel to determine the matching state
of the antenna feeder.
Monitor the forward power, including the total power and the single carrier power.
Provide more accurate channel power detection table through frequency selective
circuit, thus a more accurate output power detection value for each carrier.
Incorporate in the automatic calibration of the output power.
Inject and acquire the BTM signals (DUP forward acquisition and DUP reverse/DIV
injection).
Provide the TX test port for pre-distortion sampling.
Report to the RMM via the serial port about the power, VSWR alarms, and the LNA
state. The RMM also controls the variable attenuator on the power detection link of the
PVD for the expansion of the dynamic range of the detection link.
Support external tower top amplifier with the LNA design for links that makes gain
adjustment through the background.
Detect the power of the all-channel bandwidth (5M) of 4-carrier and a given carrier at
the same time.
12.2.2 Power Amplifier (PA)
The PA is the power amplification module for the whole RFS. With its great working
current and high working temperature, it is required to provide some special linearity to
be applied to CDMA systems. Therefore, the implementation of it, a key module in the
BTSB, is a great challenge. High PA (for signal carrier amplification) or linear PA (for
multi-carrier amplification) can be chosen for the base station. This section only
addresses the principles of the linear PA (LPA).
The functions and principles of the LPA are as follows:
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
12-4
Depending on the input cross choice for the TSM and the output cross choice for the
BLPA backplane, seven LPAs are configured for 6+1 backup.
The CDMA system adopts the QPSK modulation mode, a linear modulation mode. To
reduce the spectral expansion of signals, some linear features are required from the PA.
In addition, the PA shall also provide constant gain and precisely controllable output
power. In the CDMA system, the ratio of peak power to average power of a signal is
usually around 10 dB. To ensure the inter-modulation index, the PA shall provide a
peak output power around 10 dB. Thus, the efficiency of the PA is reduced due to its
great back off. To improve the efficiency of the PA, a technology in trend provides
linear pre-distortion. In this solution, interfaces for linear distortion are reserved for
forward compatibility with the subsequent R&D achievements.
Excellent performance is expected from the LPA in an environment with appropriate
temperature and power drift. A thorough alarming system is thus required. At present
six types of alarms are to be provided: Over-heat alarms, over-power alarms, VSWR
alarms, loop 1 failure alarms, loop 2 failure alarms and power alarms.
Fully distributed power supply is adopted, and the centralized power shelf is removed.
–48V direct power supply requires support from the LPA. As the power supply is
converted to 27V by the internal power module, the heat consumption caused by the
power conversion should be taken into account during the heat design of LPA.
12.2.3 Transceiver (TRX)
The TRX is to convert the forward/reverse link signals, such as the conversion from
forward/reverse digital baseband signals to analog RF signals. The digital intermediate
frequency (software radio) and the multi-carrier technologies enhance the performance
and the integration of the system.
The working principles and functions of the TRX are as follows:
A TRX can transmit forward/reverse 4-carriers.
Process forward link signals: Receive forward baseband signals from the RMM;
perform digital filtering, digital up-conversion, digital quadrature modulation, and
digital intermediate frequency combination through the processing of the forward
digital intermediate frequency; D/A convert, amplify and filter the signals through the
intermediate frequency; simulate the up-frequency to the RF; control the forward
power attenuation, amplify the RF; output the RF filter; switch TSM and then deliver
Chapter 12 Board Installation
12-5
the signals to PA for power amplification.
Process reverse link signals: Input TRX_RX0/1 for the main/diversity RF signals from
the RFE-LNA through the RSM switch for RF filtering, RF amplification, RF analog
down-conversion, intermediate frequency amplification, intermediate frequency SAW
filtering, reverse attenuation control, Automatic Gain Control (AGC) (when needed),
and direct intermediate sampling (A/D); and then process by the reverse digital
intermediate frequency RSP for digital quadrature modulation (down-conversion),
digital splitting, digital filtering, digital sampling of the baseband signal; and output the
reverse to the corresponding baseband time slot through baseband filter FIR, forward
Digital AGC (DAGC) and reverse selection.

12.4 Interface Boards at the Back of the Baseband Cabinet
12.4.1 Interface Board Overview
The BIM of the BDS system provides interface between the BDS cabinet (single shelf
equipment) and the external equipment (PWS, BDS and RFS). Due to the great amount
of the BIM interfaces, the functions of the BIM are assigned to 12 interface boards.
The BIM is inserted from the back of the BBDS backplane to provide access for the
external interfaces for 7 types of interface boards: BIM0, BIM1, BIM2, BIM3, BIM4,
BIM5 and BIM6. Among these, boards BIM0 through BIM5 are pluggable passive
boards, and BIM6 is an unpluggable optical interface board. For the detailed
information on interfaces, see Table 12.4-1. Each type of board corresponds to a special
slot and the cabinet is designed to prevent wrong insertion, as shown in Fig. 12.4-1.

angle between the feeder and grounding cable should be no more than 15º.
11. The cabling of the feeders should be visually appealing without crisscrossing.
They should be well arranged and have no apparent twists and turns. The feeders
entering a room should be tidy, flat, straight and with identical bending angle.
The main feeders are correctly connected and the sectors concerned are correct

13.15 Checking the Antenna
Requirements:
1. An antenna support and a tower should be connected in a reliable and firm way.
2. Check the model of the antenna in use to make sure that it conforms to
networking planning.
3. The hanging height of an antenna refers to the distance between the ground and
the middle of the antenna. It is required that the actual hanging height of an
antenna conforms to network planning, and the antenna should be installed as
designed.
4. The RF antenna and the GPS antenna should be included in the protection area
of a lightning arrester (the area within the downdip of 450 from the lightning
arrester).
5. Measure the azimuth of an antenna. In case of a unipolarization directional
antenna, each antenna should be measured. The actual azimuth of an antenna
ZXC10 BTSB (V1.0) cdma2000 Base Transceiver Station Installation Manual
13-12
conforms to network planning and two antennas within the same sector goes in
the same direction. The azimuth error of the directional antenna is no more than
±0.50.
6. Measure the actual mechanical downdip of an antenna with an angulometer. In
case of a unipolarization antenna, each antenna should be measured. An omni
antenna will not be checked and a directional antenna should have the azimuth
error of no more than ±0.50. The actual mechanical downdip of an antenna
conforms to network planning and two unipolarization antennas have consistent
downdips.
7. The electrically controlled pointer antenna is adjusted with a ejector lever , and
the electrically controlled digital antenna is controlled with key input in the
equipment room. Note that the control line connected with the antenna is
vulnerable. In the case it is broken, it has to be directly adjusted with a spanner
at the antenna terminal. Each of the unipolarization antennas should be
measured. The actual electrically controlled downdip of an antenna conforms to
network planning and two unipolarization antennas should have consistent
downdips. This is not required if it is not an electrically controlled antenna.
8. All antenna poles should be firmly installed and well grounded. All antenna
poles are required to be vertical to the ground and the vertical error should be
less than 20. In particular, all antennas must be vertical to the ground. Check
with a line hammer to keep the vertical error less than 20.
9. The receive/transmit horizontal interval of an omni antenna should be no less
than 3.5 m.
10. An omni antenna should be at least 1.5 m away from the tower while a
directional antenna should be at least 1 m away from the tower.
11. The jacket top of an omni antenna should be level to a support or slightly higher
than the support top.
12. When an omni antenna is installed on a roof, the horizontal interval between the
omni antenna and antenna lightning arrester should be no less than 2.5 m.
13. An omni antenna installed on a roof should avoid blind area.
14. Check the matching relationship of the main diversity antennas within the
sectors and the set top jumpers on the rack.
Chapter 13 Hardware Installation Check
13-13
15. The diversity distance between two antennas within one sector refers to the
vertical distance between the parallel lines of the two antennas front surfaces. It
is not the distance between two antennas. Diversity distance is irrelevant to
bipolarization antenna. The diversity distance should be 3.5 m for the 800M
system, 1.5 m for the 1.9G system, and 6.7 m for the 450M system.
16. The vertical interval between directional antennas within different sectors
installed on the same antenna support should be more than 0.6 m.
17. When isolated from an antenna in G network, the vertical separation should be
more than 1 m, and the horizontal separation more than should be more than 2
m.
18. GPS antenna should be vertical, secure, in a position as low as possible, and
without barrier. The GPS spatial angle should be more than 900.
19. When there is no tower, the GPS antenna should be installed on the building top
and equipped with an independent lightning arrester.
