TRANSMISSION, ANTENNA AND GPS CONNECTION GUIDELINES 4 About This Chapter This chapter outlines guidelines for Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), Return Loss, Insertion Loss, and Antenna and GPS connections. This chapter includes: VSWR Guidelines About VSWR ■ VSWR Guidelines ■ Return Loss Guidelines ■ Insertion Loss Guidelines ■ Antenna Connection ■ GPS Connection This section discusses the importance of VSWR, antenna requirements, and issues related to measuring VSWR.
64 Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection Guidelines Antenna 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.
Return Loss Guidelines 65 Figure 20 Return Loss vs VSWR Curve Consulting 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. Table 20 Selected Return Loss and VSWR Values Return Loss Guidelines Return Loss (RL) dB VSWR 13.98 1.50 14.26 1.48 14.56 1.46 14.88 1.44 15.21 1.42 15.56 1.40 15.94 1.38 16.33 1.36 16.75 1.34 17.21 1.32 17.69 1.
66 Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection Guidelines Calculating 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.
Insertion Loss Guidelines Insertion Loss Guidelines Calculating Insertion Loss 67 Insertion 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. Calculation of Insertion loss requires known incident and reflected power values.
68 Chapter 4: Transmission, Antenna and GPS Connection Guidelines 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.

8 About This Chapter NETWORK INTEGRATION This chapter describes network integration for the Macro Pole Mount BTS.
100 Chapter 8: Network Integration Figure 34 Access Network and Core Network The connection to both the MSC and PDSN is through a private IP network. The MSC and PDSN do not need to be reachable to provision the BSC with the Core Network connection details, but they must be reachable to perform any integration testing and to provide services. The private IP network should already be established (refer to Existing Core IP Network Requirements on page 28).
Core Network Integration 101 3 The MSC prompt (msc >) should be available. Keep the telnet session open. Checking Service Status 1 Use the Command Line Interface (CLI) on the MSC to check the MSC service status with the following commands: ■ meg_dump ■ meg_res_dump ■ vsm_dump ■ csi_dump These commands can be intensive users of MSC resources. The following procedure should be done only with the knowledge of MSC Administrator and preferably during low traffic periods.
102 Chapter 8: Network Integration Confirm that Call Processing (CSI) dump shows SSN inservice=TRUE SYNC with BSC, as shown in bold in Example: csi_dump Output.

106 Chapter 8: Network Integration To connect to the PDSN: 1 Connect the Ethernet cable end from the PDSN private IP network to the Ethernet switch on the Macro Pole Mount BTS. 2 Telnet to the PDSN. Use the connection information gathered in Core Network IP Addresses and Password and Username Assignment.
Provisioning Additional BTS 107 If additional BTS need to be provisioned in the Macro Pole Mount BTS go to Provisioning Additional BTS. Provisioning Additional BTS About Additional BTS This section includes: ■ About Additional BTS ■ Provisioning Additional BTS The initial Macro Pole Mount BTS configuration has a single BTS that supports one FA. Other configurations add additional BTS units for increased capacity.
108 Chapter 8: Network Integration Follow all of the procedures in Configure the BSC on page 89 to configure each additional BTS. Reloading Additional BTS Reload each BTS after it is configured. Verifying BSS Operational State 1 Verify the operational state of the BSC and newly provisioned BTS. Refer to Configure the BTS on page 89. 2 Check the operational state of the BSC and all BTS again after all of the BTS have been provisioned.
