MN003286A01-E GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation Chapter 2 GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation For an understanding of the GTR 8000 Base Radio components, review the modules that provide the base radio functionality, the modules that provide RF distribution functionality (RFDS), and the backplane that connects to other modules within the site. This chapter explains how the GTR 8000 Base Radio works in the context of your system. 2.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation Transceiver Option Card An optional board that attaches to the control board. Provides an internal 10 MHz frequency reference. For conventional operation, it also provides the analog interfaces and WildCard I/Os. The transceiver option card requires an internal frequency reference oscillator alignment at different intervals mandated by its category and frequency band.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation 2.1.1.2.1 Exciter The exciter on the XCVR RF board provides the transmitter functions for the base radio. The exciter circuitry generates a low-level, modulated RF signal that passes to the power amplifier. It supports various modulation types as well as bandwidths up to 25 kHz, through software programming. The exciter also provides a controlled output power level to the power amplifier. 2.1.1.2.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation 2.1.1.3.2 Transceiver Option Card Intercom Button The intercom button on the front of the transceiver option card is accessible behind the fan module. Pressing the intercom button toggles the intercom function between the ON and OFF states. Figure 8: Transceiver Option Card Intercom Button (behind the fan module) 2.1.1.3.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation The power amplifier also performs functions related to the fan module, including reporting of the fan module status and supplying power to the fan power bus. Figure 10: Power Amplifier Module The power amplifier is comprised of six internal modules: • Core Board • Converter Board • Driver Amplifier Board • Final Amplifier Board • Distribution Board • Output Circuitry 2.1.2.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation Figure 11: Power Amplifier (Backplane Connections) 2.1.3 Function of the Fan Module The fan module provides intermittent forced-air cooling for the power amplifier and transceiver modules. The fan module houses two 119 mm axial fans which deliver a total of approximately 160 cubic feet per minute of airflow. Nominal fan speed is 4100 revolutions per minute. A thermostat behind the fan module controls each fan.
MN003286A01-E Chapter 2: GTR 8000 Base Radio Theory of Operation 2.1.4 Function of the Power Supply The power supply, with front-to-rear airflow, operates from either an AC or DC input and provides the DC operating voltage for the base radio. However the power supply prioritizes an AC source (if present) over a DC source.
