What is noise? (2)

Dependent on the receivers bandwidth, a certain level of noise can be captured. This noise is subsequently referred to as the thermal "noise floor" of the receiver As an example, what is the thermal noise floor expressed in dBm in a GSM system at a temperature of +17 deg. Celcius, and a receiver demodulator bandwidth of 271 kHz ? Solution:
NGSM = 10log[1000 1.38 10 23 290 271000]
NGSM = -119.6 dBm Note: Thermal Noise Floor is the noisefloor without TX or RX non-idealities
Facts/Formula Overview (1)

System Sensistivity - The minimum usable signal level at the input of the system. This level must exceed the noise floor by the required carrier to noise ratio (C/N)
( Psystem) dBm = (kT 1B ) dBm + ( Fsystem ) dB + ((C / N ) min) dB
Noise Figure for Amplifiers - Amplifiers generate additional noise relatively to the noise floor. The noise at the output of an amplifier with a noise factor F and a gain G is defined by
( Namp )linear = (kT 1BFG ) ( Namp ) dBm = 10 log(1000 kT 1BFG )
Facts/Formula Overview (2)

System Noise Factor - When cascading matched amplifiers/attenuators a resulting system noise factor will be generated according to Friis formula. It can be seen that the most dominant factors in the formula is the noise factor and gain of the first amplifier/attenuator in the cascade --> F1 and G1:
Fsystem
F2 1 F3 1 = F1 + + G1 G1G2
Noise factor = linear Noise figure = dB
Note 1. In Friis formula Noise factors and Gains are linear values and not dB values
Note 2. Conversion from dB values to linears are done according to: x (dB) = 10x/10 (linear)

Nokia UltraSite EDGE BTS RF Performance

BTS Receiver Sensitivity Minimum BTS sensitivity value measured at BTS antenna connector (without MHA) or at MHA input connector when MHA is used. BTS sensitivity value with MHA is with high gain mast head amplifier especially designed for UltraSite BTS. Maximum feeder loss can be 7 dB in GSM900 and 10 dB in GSM1800/1900. Note that there is no full-band MHA1800 available.

UltraSite EDGE filter unit (DVxx/RTxx) has two gain settings: High gain (fixed): Without MHA Low gain (variable): With MHA When using UltraSite GSM/EDGE MHA, feeder loss information is inputted with the HW configurator. Based on this data, needed RX chain gain is determined and filter unit variable gain is set accordingly to provide optimal performance.

Talk BTS
UltraSite EDGE and Talk: Received signal level of the BTS is measured in the TRX. From this measurement value, reported RX level is calculated such way that it shows RX level at the BTS antenna port (top of cabinet). It is noted that the signal received by the antenna is attenuated by the amount of the antenna feeder loss.

Talk BTS
Ultrasite EDGE: RX level is reported at the input of the MHA. Since antenna feeder loss information is fed to the BTS HW configurator, RX level reporting shows correct received signal value at the antenna
Talk: RX level is reported at the BTS antenna connector the same way as without MHA
RX level reporting in UltraSite EDGE and Talk

Note: Talk family BTS always reports RX level at BTS antenna connector and therefore addition of MHA is seen as an increase of RX level. With UltraSite EDGE, addition of MHA does no change RX level reporting values that much, since reporting reference point is at MHA input when it is used. Example:
Reported RX level Pin,ant=-90dBm Feeder loss=3dB UltraSite EDGE Talk Without MHA -93dBm -93dBm With MHA -90dBm -81dBm
Change in RX level reporting, when adding a MHA, however, does not mean that system sensitivity would increase the same amount.
17
System sensitivity without MHA

Definition of system sensitivity: Receiver input power level, at which specified bit error rate (BER) is achieved in a defined reference point GSM spec defines sensitivity to be measured at BER=2% Reference point for system sensitivity = Antenna BTS sensitivity without MHA is typically specified at the BTS antenna connector System sensitivity w/o MHA = ( BTS sensitivity ) ( antenna feeder cable losses )

System sensitivity with MHA

Degradation of system sensitivity due to feeder cable losses can be compensated by using a MHA Specification of BTS sensitivity with MHA may vary from product to product: Talk: BTS sensitivity is only specified at BTS antenna connector, affect of MHA must be calculated separately UltraSite: When using a MHA, BTS sensitivity is specified at MHA input and separate sensitivity figures with MHA can be found from product documentation
19

System sensitivity: Talk: Calculated from BTS and MHA noise figure + feeder loss, see table on next page. Sensitivity is a function of feeder cable loss. UltraSite: System sensitivity = UltraSite sensitivity specification with MHA (see product documentation). Note that sensitivity remains constant regardless of the feeder loss !

Antenna Monitoring (VSWR)

- Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) monitoring is optional in Ultra Bias Tee. - at the moment VSWR monitoring can be performed only on antenna lines including Tx, on BCCH antennas. - Pure Rx diversity antenna (TCH) can not be monitored by VSWR "Comparing RSSI Value" will do it in CX3 from BTS - The fixed VSWR thresholds are as follows: VSWR 2.6 or lower: VSWR greater than 2.6: antenna operation OK indicates antenna fault
- An alarm is generated in case of antenna fault when VSWR threshold exceeded. -> alarm raised in the O&M system and the affected TRXs turned off.
32
More about VSWR...

- VSWR is designed to detect major faults in antenna line, not to be a high accuracy measurement feature - Note a big RL difference between the antenna line with MHA (e.g.15 dB) and without MHA (e.g. 20 dB)! - After BTS or sector reset the Bias Tees can automatically be 'placed' to pure Rx line by default -> use "Preferred BCCH TRX" feature - 'Call drop rate' and 'Handover success rate' are still good features/ referencies to make sure antenna line is OK

High gain or low gain MHA?

UltraSite MHA includes practically all receiver gain. with an MHA, the front end of BTS is passive power splitter, with loss only. without an MHA, an LNA in BTS is used. the gain of LNA can be chosen/adjusted so that UltraBTS accepts also a Talk MHA without
blocking or deterioration in sensitivity.
Talk and WCDMA MHA: fixed gain LNA continuously switched ON in the front end of BTS receiver, before receiving
multicoupler. May overdrive if 33 dB MHA is installed before that. these MHAs are only used to compensate for feeder loss.
Differences: if all the gain in MHA (high gain) -> 0.30.5 dB better (front end) noise figure and respectively
feeder loss.
the better system sensitivity that is very stabile and can not be affected by any level of only and not with two serial FETs. Additionally an LNA with fixed gain in BTS is cheaper.
an MHA with low gain is a bit unexpensive because the amplification is done with one FET Decision between these two solution has been done program by program.

UltraSite EDGE BTS - The rules to use MHA output lines in PWS unit
# of PWS unit 2 2 2 3 PWS location 1 (left most) 7-12 1-6 Not installed 1-6 PWS location 2 (middle) 1-6 Not installed 7-12 Outputs OFF PWS location 3 (right most) Not installed 7-12 1-6 (Redundant) 7-12
If one PWS unit gets faulty or is removed from the cabinet then redundant unit will start immediately feeding unpopulated MHA output lines. If two PWS units are installed and the (1-6) PWS gets faulty, then the (712) PWS is switched to (1-6).
Gain setting in UltraSite EDGE BTS

1. Open Nokia BTS HW Configurator 2. Choose masthead amplifier type: MHA, MNxx, or None for each antenna MHA -> Talk family MHAs (12dB) MNxx -> UltraSite MHA (33dB).
Note! If Talk MHA is chosen, the BTS/DVD gain will be fixed/high. If UltraSite MNxx is chosen, the gain/attenuation of the BTS/DVD can still be adjusted between low and high (appr. -3.6 dB +6.4 dB). Either Cable Loss or Gain Settings value can be changed.
3. Operation and alarm current tresholds adjust accordingly 4. Finally, configuration must be sent to BTS for it to take effect

MHA installation hints

All MHA eqmt have been fully tested in production; no need to repeat stand alone testing in the field, visual check is enough Check that you are using correct sub band (1800!) Only vertical installation allowed! Max. 1/2 jumper allowed to connect to the MHA 25...30 Nm torque for MHA connectors allowed Improper installation can cause intermittent alarms or decrease functionality, e.g. water in connection, however the MHA can be OK! Touching to 7/16 connectors can decrease system performance! MHA grounding always recommended In coastal areas and in islands, use extreme weather proofing for all connections (see Antenna Line Technical Bulletin)!
MHA System installation verification

Basic msmt: Return loss for the antenna line, first without, then with an MHA VSWR more accurate than RL msmt when converted to DTF mode If all reflections (of connectors, jumpers, feeder) are in the same phase -> can cause very poor result even if individual components are ok -> RL can be as low as 9-10 dB - use DTF - if no peak is higher than the others, the result can be true - if result remains lower than 11 dB, contact Site Mgr
60
...MHA System installation verification

Always do calibration properly - for tst cables, adapters, connectors - good calibration kit With SiteMaster - check that you are using cont. sweep mode, not single sweep - check that msmt is not out-of-scale (->use autoscale) Bias Tee - Return Loss msmt - DC continuity, between center pin of 7/16 and opposite end's SMB connetors
61
MHA Tester
MHA Tester Tool is used to monitor the condition of MHA. It measures the current drawn by MHA and shows if MHA is operating normally or not. The tool can monitor Nokia Talk-, Ultra- and WCDMA MHAs. Tool can be used for two purposes: To monitor MHA condition. To power up the MHA for antenna line VSWR if msmt in Rx band.
62
MHA Installation Verification

1) Check all connections 2) Any component in antenna line can be broken; However MHA is the only active eqmt that can generate an alarm, also MHA alarm is the only alarm that is reported -> it is not necessarily MHA that is broken!!
