Thank you for choosing series GSM+DCS+3G/UMTS/WCDMA

Mini Repeater.

series Repeater is used for amplifying the mobile

phone signal. They can make you keep in touch with others freely even in

the place with weak signal.

To make you quickly be familiar with the operations of this repeater,we

offer detailed user manual together with repeater. And you can get

information including product introduction, using method, system setting

and safety notice, etc.

We carefully and cautiously write this user manual and believe the

information provided in the manual is correct and reliable. It is hard

to avoid happening some errors or omissions, so please excuse us

and sincerely appreciate your valuable comments.

NOTE

The repeater meets the uplink and downlink isolation degree index. Since the

link isolation degree is inuenced by the isolation degree of antenna and feeding

system (between donor antenna and service antenna). It requests that antenna

and feeding system isolation degree should be more than 10dB of mini repeater

gain. otherwise it will cause tri-band mini repeater internal self-excitation that leads

to interfere base station or to destroy mini repeater under serious self-excitation

conditions.

That is why you should ensure the isolation degree between donor antenna

and service antenna is larger than 80dB when installing the mini repeater,

otherwise our company will take no responsiblity for any effect caused by improper

installation.

communication is increasing day by day, as well as mobile communication service

quality .It requires telecommunication operator to improve telecommunication network

quality and extend coverage.

How to improve mobile communication quality and extend coverage has become

an important topic for each operator. Electromagnetic wave sent by mobile

telecommunication base station is affected by all kinds of objective factor, such as

landform, building, so it could not cover each corner where people may reach. If it only

depends on increasing the quantity of expensive base station to solve the problem, it

will surely increase enormous operating cost of the operator, especially for areas with

litter trafc, it also will exert adverse inuences on operator's competitiveness. Tri-band

mini repeater is used for making up base station coverage area failures, amplifying

base station coverage area and filling coverage in blind area. It is mostly fitted for

installing in residence community, underground emporium, parking lot, supermarket,

hotel, ofce, metro, tunnel, high-rise buildings, etc to amplify indoor cell phone signal. It

is most economical and effective way to resolve cell phone signal problem in blind area.

It makes your communication via cell phone more conveniently anytime and anywhere.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

The basic principle of broadband tri band mini repeater is that donor antenna receives the

downlink signal from mobile communications base station, through high selectivity band-pass

lter to well isolate the out-of-passband signal, after amplifying by intergrative power amplier,

then transferred by service antenna; meanwhile on the way of uplink path, signal of mobile

phone in the coverage area is transmitted to the relevant base station after disposing by uplink

amplifying link path by same working mode. It achieves seamless connection between mobile

telecommunication base stations and mobile phone, thus extends the covering range.

INSTALLATION AND DEBUGGING

Preparation before Installation

Installation Process

Project Reconnaissance Design

a. Conrm the coverage area of broadband tri band mini repeater

b. Forecast coverage effect and conrm project

By reconnaissance on the spot, you can make sure outdoor antenna locations and

then conrm the indoor antenna as per the coverage area you want to cover. The

indoor antenna should be installed in the central point of coverage area. In order

to make project plan more correctly, it is often to go on field intensity coverage

prediction on these areas. Conrm mini repeater working parameter, such as gain,

output power and antenna model and so on to supply theory basis for system

adjustment and testing.

Design, install and debug antenna and feeding system

Antenna and feeding system design and installation are so important parts of tri

band mini repeater project. Antenna and feeding system relates directly to using

outcome from wide band tri band repeater. When doing the design, please pay

attention to the distance between outdoor and indoor antenna, insulation degree and

port VSWR. Cable jamming network should be connected into grounding system

a.Indoor Antenna Installation

Please rstly t the indoor antenna in the middle point of desired coverage area as per

Picture 1 and then directly x the antenna by supplied ower nut board.

b.Outdoor Antenna Installation

Please install the antenna as per antenna mark "UP" in

the outdoor antenna installation process. It can make sure

antenna water-drainage held down. And then make the

antenna hold in postion by assorted two U threaded bolt as

per Picture 2.

System debugging

a. Before switching on the power supply, please conrm the AC power input is standard

value again. Antenna cable and tri band repeater are well connected. Indoor antenna

keeps more 12 meters on horizon and vertical range with outdoor antenna.

b. Switch on the power to start the device, the red indicating light of power supply on the

panel lightening indicates the power has been connected and the repeater has begun

working.

c. Making outdoor antenna in position, now downlink indicating lights lighten or twinkle.

Otherwise, it can change outdoor antenna installation place or tilting angle of outdoor

antenna until downlink indicating lights lighten or twinkle.

d. Please install the indoor antenna in the central point of coverage area. And you go on

cellphone test at every corner of coverage area. According to the test results, please

optimize the mini repeater parameter installation place further and also the syestem

holding priority of up link signal indicating light lightens or twinkles. Right now, it means

that cell phone signal is well and it is able to communicate normally.

e. After nishing the installation, please make sure of spectrum analyzer or other measurement

devices to test relevant parameter whether it is met design requirements, especially to check

the VSWR, receiving and transmitting antenna isolation degree, downlink receiving

led intensity etc. If the receiving led strength is too weak,you can adjust the angle

and direction of the outdoor antenna. If receiving led intensity is too strong, you can

consider adding xed coaxial attenuator in BS communciation port or adjusting pitch

angle so as to lower the receiving electrical level. You also can do attenuation gain

adjustment to lower amplifying function from repeater.

Attention Items of Installation

a. Donor antenna should be installed away from the service antenna, at least 12m, and

the position where is 2m higher than the ground.

b. Service antenna is ceiling antenna which can be installed in ceiling and directed the

axis vertically to the ground. Please select the proper position to make the signals

distributed equally to every corner. If you choose directional atpannel antenna install

in ceiling or wall, put antenna panel directly point to coverage area.

c. After all the RF cable has been installed, you should have an overall inspection to

prevent open-circuit and short-circuit. Because if the cable happens open-circuit or

shor-circuit. one part will not be able to work normally under slight damage conditions,

but it will destroy main device under worse conditions.

USER'S MANUAL OF MINI REPEATER

Tri- band mini repeater system self-excitation

a.The reason of Self-excitation phenomena: the isolation degree of antenna is not

enough (indicator light shows in "orange")

b.There are two methods to overcome the self-excitation phenomena. One is to

enlarge the isolation degree between donor and service antenna; the other is to

reduce mini repeater's gain. When the desired coverage area is smaller, your can

just use the second method.

When the desired coverage area is larger, you should adopt the frist method. It

mainly adopts the following methods to enlarge isolation degree in project:

1) Enlarge the horizontal and vertical distance between donor and service

antennas.

2) Add barriers, such as shielding net.

3) Enhance the direction of donor antenna, such as paraboloid antenna.

4)Utilize landform and building to enhance isolation degree.

In addition,device trouble and poor contact of cable joints,which cause high VSWR,it

also will cause self-excitation. But generally situation occurs barely. In the installation

project, self-excitation is mainly caused by small isolation degree of antenna and

feeding system.

The simple way to judge whether the device has self-excitation: Connect dummy

load to MS or BS port of repeater, when the power indicator light is on, you can

judge that the device itself exists self-excitation.

Frequent soft handoff (namely ping-pong phenomenon)

It mainly indicates that in the mini repeater coverage area,mobile phone users have

been switched repeatedly among two or more pilot frequencies of base station,and

usually connect into many base stations at the same time. The reason is the mini

repeater antennas are installed improperly; donor antenna has been installed in the

area where the coverage of base stations overlaps, and receives pilot frequency

signals from many base stations,the signals have similar intensity and alternately

d. To prevent affecting signal coverage range caused by oxygenation resulting from

moisture, all joints should be sealed by water-resistant adhesive tape, avoiding

water leakage into mini repeater through cable causing short-circuit.

Mini Repeater with low gain

The reason why mini repeater with low gain mainly is setting gain attenuation. To have

reset will work.

reign. The signal intensities of pilot frequency are still similar after relayed by mini

repeater,and it causes mobile phone to frequently switch among many base stations in

the coverage areas,it named "Ping-Pong" phenomena. When the difference of signal

intensity of each pilot frequency is less than 3dB,mobile phone connects to two or more

base stations at the same time,which makes system control load to excess or causes

over loading. It will increase the possiblity of communication cutting and decrease the

capacity of base station system. This kind of situation usually presents in mountainous

areas,highlands and the city zone with buildings crowded. In order to avoid the "Ping-

Pong" phenomena mainly adopt the follwing measures in project:

a. Change the installation location of donor antenna and direct donor antennas at a

base station until get a stable pilot frequency with strong eld intensity.

b. Change the installation position of mini repeater; do not select the spot in coverage

boundary of a certain base station to avoid interference from the adjacent base

station.

c. Select strong directional donor antenna, such as high gain & big caliber paraboloid

antenna.
