12 Channel Channelised Cell Enhancer User Handbook Handbook Nō.-50-122501HBK Issue No:-A Date:-16/03/05 Page:- 11 of 40 2. OVERVIEW/SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The AFL Channel Selective Cell Enhancer is a 2-way on-band repeater. Various models are available to cover frequency bands from 50MHz to 3000MHz. Its main sphere of applications is in urban areas where the topology is such that shadows occur in the propagation pattern (for example within large buildings, conference centres and tunnels, etc.,) The Channel Selective Cell Enhancer is a 2-port device for direct connection to two antennas, usually a highly directional Yagi or similar aligned towards the base (donor) site and an omni-directional antenna to cover the mobiles. The frequency bands that are passed by the Cell Enhancer are set as per the specific customer requirements. AFL manufacture a wide range of Cell Enhancers, configured for each customer's specific requirements. Two basic physical variants are available, a rack mounted version to fit in a standard 19" rack and an environmentally sealed wall mounted version which requires no further enclosure. The rack-mounted version is usually supplied in 3 units, a power supply unit and 2 RF units (one containing each path). Each shelf/tray unit containing active modules has a ‘D.C. on’ indicator on the front panel and the PSU also has an ‘A.C. on’ indicator. The wall-mounted version is supplied in a single environmentally-protected case. Handles are provided for carrying the unit and the door is fitted with locks. A supply isolator switch is fitted inside the unit and there are ‘.DC. on’ and ‘Alarm on’ indicators on the outside of the door. 12 Channel Channelised Cell Enhancer User Handbook Handbook Nō.-50-122501HBK Issue No:-A Date:-16/03/05 Page:- 13 of 40 3.1 Description The system consists of separate modules mounted within a lockable, environmentally protected enclosure. It is designed to amplify twelve bi-directional channels (six uplink, six downlink) of mobile signals operating in the VHF waveband. All twelve channel selective modules are configurable for any frequency (within the channel modules’ designed range) set by the DIP switches on the channel control modules – see section 4.8 for channel frequency calculation examples. Alarms are provided for each amplifier and channel selective module which are wired as a volt-free, relay isolated summary loop, terminating at pins 1 & 2 in the external connector. The ‘normal’ condition is that each active device ‘holds’ a local relay closed, (so if power fails, the alarms become active) making a fail-safe system. 3.2 Electrical Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Frequency range: 167.0-172MHz (Downlink) 162.0-165MHz (Uplink) Channel module frequencies: Unspecified Bandwidth: 3MHz uplink 5MHz downlink Channel ripple: <±1.5dB Gain: >95dB Gain Adjustment: 0 - 30dB (in 2dB steps) Spurious noise (in-band 30kHz): <-13dBm (U/L & D/L) Uplink Power: >10.0Watts Downlink Power: >40.0Watts DownlinkO/P power/channel: +24dBm UplinkO/P power/channel: +18dBm Channel module gain: 30dB -15.5dBm (downlink) Channel module ALC: -14dBm (uplink) +44dBm (downlink) PA 1 dB compression point: +38dBm (uplink) +56dBm (downlink) PA IP3: +50dBm (uplink) Noise Figure: <6dB VSWR: better than 1.5:1 RF Connectors: N type, female Input supply power: 110 or 230V ac operational: -10°C to +60°C Temperature range: storage: -40°C to +70°C 1 Amplifiers Alarms Fitted: (volt-free contacts/TTL) 2 Channel modules 12 Channel Channelised Cell Enhancer User Handbook Handbook Nō.-50-122501HBK Issue No:-A Date:-16/03/05 Page:- 14 of 40 3.3 Mechanical Specification Height: 800mm Width: 600mm Case Size: Depth: 250mm (excluding heatsinks, connectors, handles and feet) Fixings: 4 holes on 630(w) x 640(h)mm Weight: 80kg (approximately) RF Connectors: N type female Environmental Protection: IP65 with door closed and ports terminated Case: To RAL 7035 Heatsinks: Matt black Finish: Handles: Black technopolymer operational: -20°C to +60°C Temperature Range: storage: -40°C to +70°C Supply cord: Unit supplied with 3-pin IP68 connector for customer interface with AC input. 12 Channel Channelised Cell Enhancer User Handbook Handbook Nō.-50-122501HBK Issue No:-A Date:-16/03/05 Page:- 18 of 40 4. SUB-UNIT MODULES 4.1 3 Port Tx Hybrid Couplers (05-000103 & 05-000104) 4.1.1 Description The transmitter hybrid couplers provide isolation from unwanted reflected frequencies to/from the leaky feeder antennas. They are 4 port devices with the one unused port terminated internally with a 50 Ω dummy load. The ‘104’ version has higher power capability due to an attached heatsink. Being passive devices, the hybrid couplers should be maintenance free over their entire lifetime and have an extremely high MTBF figure. It is not recommended that the top cover be removed or any of the internal components needlessly touched, since the original factory alignment/tuning would be extremely hard to reproduce in a ‘field’ environment. 4.1.2 Technical Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Frequency Range: 140-170 MHz Bandwidth: ±10% of f o Insertion Loss: 3.2dB Impedance: 50Ω V.S.W.R: 1.2:1 Input to input isolation: >20dB Connectors: Type N Standard Dimensions: 140 x 120 x 35mm 25Watts (05-000103) Power rating: 100W (05-000104) Weight: 0.5kg 12 Channel Channelised Cell Enhancer User Handbook Handbook Nō.-50-122501HBK Issue No:-A Date:-16/03/05 Page:- 19 of 40 4.2 ¼Watt 0- -30dB Switched Attenuator (10-000703) 4.2.1 General Application In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive. Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the gain. 4.2.2 Switched Attenuators The AFL switched attenuators are available in two different types; 0 – 30dB in 2 dB steps (as in this case), or 0 – 15dB in 1 dB steps. The attenuation is simply set using the four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly mar…
