RPC/RP Manual 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 iii Important Safety Instructions ! Safety Information: Installer and User WARNING The device is to be installed and operated at a “fixed location”. The term "fixed location" means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. It must be located - (for indoor RPs) up on or near the ceiling away from users or bystanders – (for outdoor RPs) on the roof top site, pole, building, or traffic light away from users or bystanders. It must be mounted in a manner to ensure that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is normally maintained between all users, bystanders and the antenna (including any radiating structure). The installer may be required to perform an MPE evaluation and an Environmental Assessment (EA) of the location at the time of licensing per CFR 47 Part 1.1307. Fixed mounted antennae that are co-located with other antennae must satisfy the co-location requirements of Part 1.1307. Limits: The limit for general population/uncontrolled environment exposures is 1 2 /cmmW for the band 1500-100,000 MHz. MPE evaluation: The following calculations are provided for the more restrictive limit: uncontrolled environment/general population. The calculated minimum safe distance, Radii(cm), is approximately 10 times lower than the minimum required installation distance of 20 cm per Part 2.1091. RPC/RP Manual WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 iv Therefore, the transmitter model numbers EA7H74B and EA7H75B complies with the MPE requirements by providing a safe separation distance between the antenna (including any radiating structure) and any persons. The calculations were performed using formulas found in OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01(1997).

A standard installation for RP applications places several RPs in a common service area. However, the number of RPs and their distribution deployment depend on the following factors: • Topography of the service area • Subscriber distribution in the service area • Desired Grade of Service and traffic load. There are two types of RPs: • Outdoor - is small in size and is encased in a weather-proof cabinet. This gives it the potential for various mounting scenarios - installed on the dedicated poles, buildings, or street lamp poles. • Indoor - is also small in size and can be installed in public and semi-public locations like an office building, a shopping mall, or an underground parking lot. The power for the RP is fed from the RPC and a synchronous clock is delivered from the RPC. The radio link between the RP and the FSU, or the RP and the PS is based on RCR-STD 28 Ver.2 PHS technology, which defines frequency bands, protocol, and so on. Both the indoor and the outdoor RPs have a 2 branch built-in antenna. The architecture of the WLL system is illustrated in Figure 3-1, which is followed by a block diagram of the RP. RP Installation RPC/RP Manual WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 3-2 Figure 3-1: RP in the WLL System RPC/RP Manual RP Installation 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 3-3 Figure 3-2: Radio Port Block Diagram 3.1.1 Traffic Handling PHS applies Time Division Multiplex Access (TDMA) and Time Division Duplex (TDD) techniques. Each individual radio link between the RP and the FSU/PS is assigned 1 time slot for a control channel (C-ch) and 3 slots for traffic channels (T-chs). In the case of a single RP, there are 4 time slots installed for radio links. One slot is the control channel for signaling and the other three are the traffic channels. The number of accommodated subscribers in that RP covering the zone calculated according to the erlang theory is as follows: • Erlang per zone (3 T-chs, GOS=5%) = 0.899 erlang • Subscribers (FSUs or PSs) (0.899÷.08) = 11 subscribers Group Control maximizes the number of channels available for traffic by allowing one control channel to control up to 8 RPs (up to 31 traffic channels), which is an efficient application for high traffic areas. One master RP can control a maximum of 7 RPs in the same area. The master RP has one control channel, and all the other channels are assigned for traffic, leaving 31 channels open for traffic. Figure 3-3 represents the group control configuration with 4 RPs in the group. RP Installation RPC/RP Manual WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 3-4 Figure 3-3: Group Control RPs In the group control mode, the number of accommodated subscribers in the group control coverage zone is calculated in accordance with the erlang theory as follows (with 4 RPs in the group): • Erlang per zone (15 T-chs, GOS=5%) = 10.663 erlang • Subscribers (FSUs or PSs) (10.663÷.08) = 132 subscribers The comparison for the number of accommodated subscribers between the group controlled RPs and the single RP is shown in Figure 3-4. F NOTE: Figure 3-4 represents the group control with 4 RPs. Each group can have a maximum of 8 RPs. RPC/RP Manual RP Installation 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 3-5 Figure 3-4: Accommodated Subscribers per RP in Group and Non-group Control The recommended installation design for RPs is as follows: • A zone of sparse subscribers should be covered by non-group controlled RPs. • A zone of dense subscribes should be covered by group-controlled RPs. The number of accommodated subscribers is the greatest when all of the RPs connected to an RPC are configured in the group control mode. In this case (with 4 RPs in each group), the number of service zones is eight (32÷4), and the maximum number of subscribers is 1,056 (132x8). Each Group Control zone supplies 15 traffic channels. Eight zones require 120 channels (15x8) provided by 4 E1 lines with 30 channels each. 3.1.2 Cell Overlap Maximum service results are achieved when the RP coverage area is strategically installed in a Cell Overlap Capacity.

This is done through the Netman network management system. Netman is the network management tool for the system. It centralizes the management of all the DMs in the network, including the RPCs. This chapter describes the RPC/RP configuration process through Netman 2000. 4.1 Initialize an RPC Node RPCs are represented as independent DMs on the Netman Main View window although they are actually controlled by the COT node to which they are attached. Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 represent the toolbar and pull-down menu of the RPC DM window. Figure 4-1: Toolbar and Description (RPC R2.4) RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 4-2 Figure 4-2: Netman Pull-down Menus (RPC R2.4) This section describes the procedures to initialize an RPC node. Follow the steps below to get connected to an RPC: 1. On the Main View window of the Netman network management system, double click the target RPC icon. This opens the Connect RPCs window, as shown below. Figure 4-3: Connect RPCs Window RPC/RP Manual RPC/RP Configuration 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 4-3 2. There are 15 RPCs to select from. Click the check boxes of the RPCs to be connected and then click OK. 3. A connection status box appears, displaying the connection process. When the process is complete, the RPC window opens with four frames, as displayed in Figure 4-4. Figure 4-4: RPC Window The top left frame is called the Unit View window. It lists the current units, such as, RPCs, RPs, interfaces, etc. The NODE displays its IP address. The connection status of the RPC nodes on the tree structure is represented in three different colors. The green and red color indicate connected and unconnected RPCs respectively, whereas the RPC nodes in black color indicate that they are not selected for connection. The top right frame is called the Status View window. It displays the relevant status information corresponding to the selection on the left, on the menu bar, or on the toolbar. The small frame under the Unit View window is the Connection View window. It displays the connection status and the connected RPC. RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 4-4 Finally, the frame at the bottom is the Self Messages window. It displays messages about the command execution results, trap messages, or warnings, if there is any. 4. To get connected to a certain RPC, reselect the RPC by clicking the RPC on the Unit View window. A connection status box appears, displaying the connection process. If the connection is successful, a message will appear on the Connection View window, stating “Connected to RPC#...” If the connection fails, the message will be: “Not Connected!” 5.
