RURAL AREAS
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL BUILDING SIZE MULTIPATH INTERFERENCE DIFFRACTION AND GENERAL ATTENUATION
REPEATERS
COMPONENTS External directional antenna
A two way interface: DOWNLINK: RF signal direction going INTO the building, and UPLINK : RF signal being sent OUT of the building.
REPEATERS
COMPONENTS (...contd)
BDA(Bi-Directional RF Amplifier) RF cable distribution network Internal rebroadcast antenna
Repeater Diagram
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Hardware physical reception and transmission
a channel
RF FRONT-END ARCHITECTURE
signal known as the image signal successfully demodulates the desired signal Used before the first mixing stage, (i.e. Before entering IF stage)
IF signal
Baseband processing system
BASEBAND DESIGN
DSPs
Pros
Latency quantifiable Lesser power consumption Greater support for no. of simultaneous operations Greater degree of flexibility
Cons
Latency unavoidable due to run-time uncertainty Tiny fraction of the silicon devoted to computation; rest devoted to moving instructions and data. Power concerns same as FPGA. Cannot execute signals in parallel/pipeline
FPGAs
Pros
Greater computational capacities than DSPs.
Power efficient and reconfigurable Parallel execution supported, hence higher throughput
Cons
Higher static power consumption levels
Programming difficult due to bit images Structural complexity higher
REPEATER LINKING
In a normal repeater:
the user transmits on the input frequency, the
REPEATER LINKING
In linked repeaters:
A remote base with three modes- off, receive and
transmit- linked
In the receive or monitor mode the repeater listens
to two frequencies, the normal input and also whatever frequency the remote base radio is listening to.
REPEATER LINKING
Receive: repeater listens to user on normal freq. and on remote base freq.
Transmit: The user speaks and their voice goes out on the repeater and also on the remote base transmitter.
Wrong antenna
Poor attention to specifications Poor device for signal regeneration
frequency-bands
DEBUGGING
CHECK ON PROCESS
VSWR test : VSWR of antenna feeder system
equipment is installed securely, height and location of installation are exact connected with feeder line and marks be correct; correct connection with power supply to provide safety and reliability.
Cable laying Marks : Correct and easy for examining; Connection : Correct and secure; Wiring :
antenna and the serving donor sector if possible a donor antenna with high gain, narrow beam-width, and a high front to back ratio isolation between repeater input and output Sufficient gain w.r.t input signal
PROJECT
Study of Repeater designing and assembly
REPEATER DESIGNING
Choice of components and assembly of cellular repeater comprising:
receiving and transmitting antennas two 824-894 MHz amplifiers and coupling circuitry
Antenna Selection
objectives:
(1) operation over the 824-894 MHz range, (2) low standing wave ratio (SWR) over this frequency range, and (3) Radiation in all directions except towards the antenna at the other end of the repeater
Coupling Circuitry
Needed to prevent the output of one amplifier from feeding
