Main Antenna Feeder


System Composition
Antenna feeder system for the base station includes the O/I ports
from BTS cabinet to antennas. It mainly transmits and receives
signals to and from BTS. If the system is configured with a towertop amplifier, install power lines for the tower-top amplifier.
Take one BTS configuration covering three sectors as an example. When one BTS covers three sectors, each sector can use two
unipolar antennas, that is, total six antennas implement space
diversity reception. One unipolar antenna in a sector should be
connected to the combiner and duplexer through the feeder cable to transmit downlink signals and receive uplink signals. The
other unipolar antenna is used only for receiving uplink signals
from MS and it should be connected directly to the pre-receiving
filter through the feeder cable.
From antenna to cabinet, the antenna feeder system consists
of BTS antenna, tower-top amplifier (optional), antenna jumper,
main feeder cable, grounding clip, lightning arrester, and cabinet-top jumper, as shown in Figure 41.

Note:
Tower top amplifier is an optional device. Read contract terms for
its configurations.

BTS Antennas
The configuration of the BTS antenna system is closely related
to network planning. Different coverage areas and environments
may require very different antenna feeder systems. Before installation, network planning has predetermined the layout, elevation,
dip, gain and even diversity reception mode of the antenna.
In the mobile system, antennas used by the BTS are classified into
the following types:

UMTS 2100 and so on

According to polarization: List polarization (vertical), double


polarization (+/-45 deg)

According to antenna radiation directional diagram: Omnidirectional antenna , directional antenna

Directional antenna and omnidirectional antenna are as shown in


Figure 42.

Tower-Top Amplifier
Electron thermal motion in active parts and RF conductors in
BTS receiver can cause thermal noise affecting BTS receiver
performance. Therefore, in order to improve the performance,
use tower-top amplifier in antenna feeder system, as shown in
Figure 43. Tower top amplifier amplifies the uplink and downlink
signals, hence enhancing BTS coverage area, reducing call drop
ratio and improving the voice quality.

Note:
Ground the tower top amplifier separately during installation. The
AISG interface for RSU provides the power supply to the TMA.

Antenna Jumper
Use antenna jumper when connecting cables in small bending radius. There are helicoid in its surface, making it highly flexible and
able to resist the pressure. Use half inch antenna jumpers from
antenna to the main feeder cable and from main feeder cable to
the cabinet, as shown in Figure 44.
FIGURE 44 ANTENNA JUMPER

Main Feeder Cable


Main feeder cable transmits signals between BTS and the antenna
under the environment conditions it can withstand. Feeder cable
can transmit with low attenuation at high frequency, even characteristic impedance, and high return loss. As shown in Figure
45, common foam insulation feeder cable has internal conductor
and external conductor. The internal conductor is wrapped with
low-loss foam insulator, and there are rings on the external conductor surface. Feeder cable is covered with a sheath which is

fireproof, low smoke, and halogen free. Use 7/8 inch feeder cable
between antenna jumper and cabinet-top jumper.
FIGURE 45 MAIN FEEDER CABLE

Grounding Kit
Grounding kit can protect antenna feeder cables and the equipment against lightning. It is used to ground co-axial cables. Mount
it on the tower top, tower bottom, and entrance of the transceiver
for the grounding purpose, as shown in Figure 46.
FIGURE 46 GROUNDING KIT

Lightning Arrester
Lightning causes damage to not only the struck object but also microelectronics equipment in surrounding areas. The strong instant
voltage due to induction in the power cables, data lines, and other
conductors mainly causes damage. Lightning arrester can prevent
cables and the equipment from the lightning current. Generally,
lightning arresters are classified into two types: /4 stub and gravitron.
/4 Stub Lightning

As shown in Figure 47, /4 stub lightning arrester is a tri-port

short-circuited. Its third end length is one fourth of the central


working wavelength.
FIGURE 47 /4 STUB LIGHTNING ARRESTER

The working principle is similar to a band-pass filter. At working frequency band, it is equal to connecting together with a main
coaxial cable to infinite impedance. It strongly attenuates the most
destructive 100 kHz or lower frequency band so that destructive
energy of lightning is diverted to the ground without causing equipment damage.
/4 stub does not get damaged by lightning, since its inner conductor is a 16 mm copper pipe that can withstand 100 KA lightning,
which exceeds the current generated by common lightning. /4
stub maintenance is free before bandwidth is changed.
Gravitron
Lightning Arrester

Gravitron lighting arrester is a short-circuit protection part encapsulated in ceramics or glass and filled with low-pressure inert gas.
It is divided into two types based on the structure: three electrodes and dual electrodes, as shown in Figure 48.

The working principle is gas discharge. When electric field strength

causes gas discharge, thus limiting the voltage between the electrodes and protecting other parts with are in parallel connection
with the gravitron.
The advantages of the gravitron are high current capacity, high
insulation resistance, and low current leakage. The disadvantages
are high residual pressure, slow response (100 ns), low accuracy
of operating voltage, and existence of follow current. Redundant
current over two times the value damages the gravitron when it
passes through the gravitron. Therefore, check gravitron interior
when lightning exceeds 10 kA for any repair or replacement. Service life for gravitron is 5 years.
