FCC ID#: PL6-ISM-BTS-R1 Description Navini Networks Wireless Integrated Solution (WINS) BTS consists of two major parts: RF front-end unit that will be placed on the tower top, and tower base unit (see Fig.1). The RF front-end unit contains an antenna assembly of 8 dipole antennas, a calibrator board for calibration, and a distributor for T/R switch signal and RF _LO distribution. As per the FCC requirement each transmitter has its own power amplifier - Multiple transmitters do not share a common amplifier. Tower base unit contains 8 transceivers, an IF module, a synthesizer, and base band modules. The distance between RF front-end unit and tower base units varies from 10 ft to 200 ft depending on the deployment scenarios. The modulated transmit and receive IF signals flow between the tower top and tower base units. The IF signal center frequency is 140MHz. During the transmission period, a total of 8 sets of I and Q data are generated from the base band modules where they have been weighted for the purpose of beam forming. They are then fed into the IF module and quadrature modulated. The resulting IF spectrum is 5 MHz wide centered at 140MHz. The signals are then up-converted to 2.4GHz ISM band and amplified to the FCC limit. Finally the signals are sent to the antennas and radiated into the air. Each of the signals is a separate signal. Multiple signals may be from/for one user or one signal from/for each user. They are dynamically configurable. During the receive period, 8 sets of signals received from 8 antennas are first amplified and then down-converted to the 140MHz IF frequency. Then they are sent to the IF module and quadrature demodulated to 8 sets of I and Q data, which are then sent to the base band unit for further processing. The synthesizer generates the RF_LO and IF_O signals and distributes them to IF and RF front-end modules. It also facilitates the calibration by generating the calibration signals. The base band unit controls the Tx/Rx switch system timing. The Navini Networks BTS is almost identical to conventional spread spectrum devices except that we transmit the sum of multiple spread spectrum signals modulated (or spread) on multiple pseudo random codes. Our modulation method is analogous to that of IEEE 802.11b, which modulates 8 co-channel signals with 8 CCK sequences.

Then transmitter uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum techniques. The antenna for this product is mounted on a fixed outdoor structure. The antenna consists of multiple radiating elements fed by multiple tranmitters. The antenna system uses beam-forming techniques to optimize the efficiency and coverage of the system. The following points were agreed between the manufacturer and the FCC for the approval of this equipment under 15.247 rules. 1. The individual transmitters in the system will be subject to the technical requirements set forth in Section 15.247; 2. Section 15.31 will not apply; 3. The system will be considered "point to point" under Section 15.247(b)(3)(i) and (iii); 4. Total antenna gain per transmitter will be computed as the sum of (a) the actual gain of the antenna used, and (b) the beam-forming gain (18dBi) of the system determined by the formula 20log10 N, where N is the number of transmitters in the array; and 5. The peak output power for each transmitter will be reduced per Section 15.247(b)(3)(i) based on the total antenna gain, however, a "phase coherence loss" correction factor of 2…
