36Chapter 2: Site PreparationMovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTSPart Number D01309 Installation and Initial Configuration Guide July 2007Site External Grounding RequirementsExternal grounding requirements include:■Site Grounding Responsibility■Ground Rods■AC Power Grounding■Ground TestingSite Grounding ResponsibilityGrounding of the site is the responsibility of the customer. All grounding and power connections should be made according to local standards.Ground RodsSeveral factors affect external grounding. The major factor is the resistance of ground rods, which is directly related to soil resistivity in the immediate vicinity of the rod. The resistivity of the soil determines how many rods are needed and their dimensions.Ground rods must be buried at the base of the structure, and at the AC service entrance and transmission line entry port. The rods must be composed of copper-clad, high-strength steel with minimum dimensions of 16 mm x 3.1 m (5/8 in. x 10 ft.).The rods must be located at least 61 cm (2 ft.) from the edge of the foundation, and driven deeply enough that the top of the rod is below the frost line of the installation site.AC Power GroundingThe AC power ground conductor must be bonded to the ground rod located at the service entrance. Ground lugs provided in all service entrance equipment must be bonded to the service ground conductor. The system ground and neutral must be bonded at one location only, as close as is practical to the service entrance. All service grounding must conform to the appropriate electrical codes.Ground TestingThe external ground systems must be tested separately after installation, and each resistance to earth ground must be less than 5 ohms. Tests must be performed twice per year to ensure ground system integrity.Macro Pole Mount BTS GroundingRequirementsGood internal grounding depends on several factors, the most significant of which is the halo ground. Using a halo ground provides maximum internal protection for the Macro Pole Mount BTS.

Site Requirements37Part Number D01309MovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTS July 2007Installation and Initial Configuration GuideMacro Pole Mount BTS GroundThe Macro Pole Mount BTS and BTS sector expansion are equipped with a chassis ground connection point at the bottom of the cabinet (refer to Figure 5).

40Chapter 2: Site PreparationMovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTSPart Number D01309 Installation and Initial Configuration Guide July 2007Warning:External (customer supplied) antenna can be attached to the GPS antenna input. In this case, the on-cabinet GPS coaxial cable should be disconnected.The Macro Pole Mount BTS provides +5 VDC voltage at the GPS antenna input connector to power the external antenna. For a non-standard GPS antenna, make sure the voltage is sufficient for normal antenna operation and that the power consumption of the antenna does not exceed 275mW.A GPS antenna is an active antenna. Avoid a short circuit termination of the GPS antenna input on the Macro Pole Mount BTS case. If different voltage is used to feed an external GPS antenna, use the DC block module with external lightning protector to avoid back current leakage into the GPS antenna input.Other Cable Grounding All other cables such as telephone cables, data cables, and power cables should be protected by metal conduit with single-point ground connection to the top ground bar (refer to Figure 6).The Macro Pole Mount BTS incorporates lightning protection on all incoming wires. External equipment (such as Ethernet switch, BSC or other) has to be lightning protected.Cables between any two structures must be shielded and employ a messenger cable. The messenger cable must be bonded to the respective building ground at each corner. The shields must be bonded to the building ground at each corner.Macro Pole Mount BTS Mounting Options The Macro Pole Mount BTS comes with different installation kits.Pole MountingThe Macro Pole Mount BTS can be installed on steel, concrete, or wood poles with diameter from 12 to 30 cm (5 to 12 inches).Refer to Chapter 3, Macro Pole Mount BTS Installation and Power Cabling, for the details.Wall MountingThe Macro Pole Mount BTS can be installed on wood, concrete, masonry, grout-filled-block, and hollow-block walls.Refer to Chapter 3, Macro Pole Mount BTS Installation and Power Cabling, for the details.Space Requirements The Macro Pole Mount BTS requires both vertical clearance and area clearance.

64Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection GuidelinesMovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTSPart Number D01309 Installation and Initial Configuration Guide July 2007Antenna Requirements This guide does not describe how to install any GPS or RF antenna. This guide assumes that any GPS or RF antenna has already been installed according to manufacturers' specification.The antenna should be resonant with the operating frequency so that its impedance matches the impedance of the transmission lines. Coaxial lines with 50 ohm impedance characteristics are universally used, The antenna should be designed to a 50 ohm terminal impedance.Maximum power transmission over coaxial occurs when VSWR is unity (antenna impedance is 50 ohm). Many antennae are specified to operate with a VSWR lower than 1.5:1.Measuring VSWR Gain is the ratio of output power (voltage) to input power (voltage). Gain is usually expressed in dB. If the ratio is less than unity, the gain, expressed in dB, will be negative, indicating a loss between input and output.Gain cannot be easily measured in the field, but antenna VSWR can be measured at installation time.The real (true) VSWR occurs at the antenna terminals, and VSWR should be measured at the bulkhead. The VSWR at the end of the transmission line will be lower than the real VSWR by the amount of attenuation (loss of signal power) in the line.VSWR below 1.2 should be measured with a spectrum analyzer. VSWR above 1.2 can be calculated using return loss values (refer to Calculating Return Loss) and the appropriate table, or graph.Figure 20 shows the Return Loss vs VSWR curve, which is useful for estimating VSWR above 1.2.

$Return Loss Guidelines65Part Number D01309MovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTS July 2007Installation and Initial Configuration GuideFigure 20 Return Loss vs VSWR CurveConsulting a VSWR and Return Loss table will give precise VSWR for a known Return Loss value. Table 20 shows selected Return Loss and VSWR values, approximating the desired VSWR range for the antenna cabling.Return Loss GuidelinesReturn Loss is the ratio of the amplitude of the reflected wave to the amplitude of the incident wave, measured at the junction of a transmission line and a terminating impedance (or other discontinuity).Return loss is a measure of the dissimilarity between impedances in metallic transmission lines and loads, or between refractive indices in optical fibers. Return loss is usually expressed in dB.Table 20 Selected Return Loss and VSWR ValuesReturn Loss (RL) dB VSWR13.98 1.5014.26 1.4814.56 1.4614.88 1.4415.21 1.4215.56 1.4015.94 1.3816.33 1.3616.75 1.3417.21 1.3217.69 1.3018.22 1.28$

66Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection GuidelinesMovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTSPart Number D01309 Installation and Initial Configuration Guide July 2007Calculating Return Loss Return Loss calculations can be expressed in dBm or dBw. Decibels are used to express the ratio between two quantities. dBm uses a reference of 1mW and dBw uses a reference of 1W.dBm = 10 log(power out / 1mW)dBw = 10 log(power out / 1W) A Return Loss (metallic transmission line) scenario is shown in Figure 21.Figure 21 Return Loss Calculation Scenario40dBm power (incident) is equivalent to 10 watts, and 26 dBm (reflective) is equivalent to 400mW.Using the equation and values shown in Figure 21, Return Loss is calculated at 14dB.The Effective Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is used to estimate the service area of the transmitter, and to co-ordinate transmitters on the same frequency so that their coverage areas do not overlap.Effective Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) is given by: EIRP(dBm) = (Transmitted Power (dBm)) – (Attenuation (dB)) + (Antenna Gain (dB)).Using the equation and values shown in Figure 21, EIRP is calculated at 39.8 dBm + antenna gain (decibels of gain of an antenna is expressed as dBi).

Insertion Loss Guidelines67Part Number D01309MovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTS July 2007Installation and Initial Configuration GuideInsertion Loss GuidelinesInsertion Loss is the power loss resulting from the insertion of a device in a transmission line. Insertion Loss expressed as the reciprocal of the ratio of the signal power delivered to that part of the line before the device to the signal power delivered to that same part after the device. The inserted device is some type of connector.Calculating Insertion LossCalculation of Insertion loss requires known incident and reflected power values. The incident power should be known and reflected power is calculated as Return Loss.Insertion Loss is given by: Linsertion(dB) = 10log (Pout/Pin)Using the scenario shown in Figure 21, where the incident power is 10 W (40dBm), reflected power is 0.4 W (26dBm), the total power output is 9.6 W. Insertion Loss is 10log (9.6/10) or 0.2dB.Antenna ConnectionTo connect antenna cables:1Confirm that the antenna cables are labeled near the Macro Pole Mount BTS terminating end. Label the cables if they are not already labeled.2Thread the 7-16 Din type connector end of the MAIN cable onto the 7-16 DIN connector end on the antenna connection plate.3Thread the 7-16 Din type connector end of the DIVERSITY cable onto the 7-16 DIN connector end on the antenna connection plate.GPS ConnectionThe GPS connection requires guidelines for timing information and for connecting the GPS cable to the Macro Pole Mount BTS.About GPS in BTS A BTS requires accurate timing information for both Time of Day (ToD) and message synchronization.The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of 27 Earth-orbiting satellites (24 in operation and three extras in case one fails). A GPS receiver must locate four or more of these satellites, determine the distance to each, and use this information to deduce its own location. This operation is based on trilateration.The GPS receiver and satellite both need clocks that can be synchronized to the nanosecond. Every satellite contains an atomic clock and the GPS receiver itself uses an ordinary quartz clock, which it constantly resets.The receiver looks at incoming signals from four or more satellites and gauges its own inaccuracy - there is only one value for the "current time" that the

68Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection GuidelinesMovingMedia™ 2000 iCell All IP Radio Access Network Macro Pole Mount BTSPart Number D01309 Installation and Initial Configuration Guide July 2007Warning:Warning:receiver can use. The correct time value will cause all of the signals that the receiver is receiving to align at a single point in space. That time value is the time value held by the atomic clocks in all of the satellites. So the receiver sets its clock to that time value, and it then has the same time value that all the atomic clocks in all of the satellites have.Connecting GPS Cable to Macro Pole Mount BTSA GPS antenna connection point is provided on the bottom of the Macro Pole Mount BTS.Connecting GPS CableThe Macro Pole Mount BTS integrated GPS cable uses an N type connector end. The N-type jack (female) connector allows the connection of a non-integrated GPS connector.To connect an external GPS antenna cable:1Disconnect the existing GPS antenna cable from the bottom of the Macro Pole Mount BTS.2Thread the GPS cable end behind the sunshield panes and secure it.3Connect the external GPS antenna cable (N-type plug (male)) to the GPS connector on the bottom of the Macro Pole Mount BTS. Do not over tighten connector.The GPS antenna is active. Any DC blocking components on the GPS antenna cable (such as DC block or attenuators) will prevent proper antenna power feeding.

In a loopback test the BTS sends a signal to the BSC and receives the returned signal after it passes through the network. The sent signal is a voice call.Loopback testing will test the integrity of the transmission network and the inter-operability of the BTS and BSC. No MSC connection is needed for loopback testing.The Ethernet cable between the test client and the Ethernet switch should still be connected.To configure loopback parameters on the BSC:1Open the BSC Element Manager.2Click cdma1x, performance, testCalls and then testCallEndPoint. The page shown in Figure 33 appears.Figure 33 Test Call End Point Configuration3Select bsc from the dropdown menu and click Set.4Click cdma1x, interfaces, ios, and then mscIp.5Enter an IP address of 0.0.0.0 and then click Set.6Click cdma1x, cdma, cdmaSystemInfo.7Configure the parameters listed in Table 24.
