Antennas - Antenna Gain

Measures the antennas capability to transmit/extract energy


to/from the propagation medium (air)

Antenna gain depends on

dB over isotropic antenna (dBi)


dB over dipole (dBd)

10 Simple Guidelines for RF Safety

All personnel should have EME awareness training


All personnel entering the site must be authorized
Obey all posted signs
Assume all antennas are active
Before working on antennas, notify owners and disable appropriate
transmitters
Maintain minimum 3 feet clearance from all antennas
Do not step in front of antennas
Use personal RF monitors while working near antennas
Never operate transmitters without shields during normal operation
Do not operate base station antennas inside equipment rooms

Decoupling
def = Attenuation between
TX & RX antenna
connectors
Horizontal separation

needs approx. 5 distance for


sufficient decoupling

antenna patterns
superimposed if distance too
close

5 .. 10

Vertical separation

main lobe

distance of 1 provides good


decoupling values
good for RX /TX decoupling

Minimum coupling loss


kris.sujatmoko@gmail.com

47

Installation Examples

Recommended decoupling

0,2m

Horizontal decoupling distance depends on

TX - TX: ~20dB
TX - RX: ~40dB
antenna gain
horizontal rad. pattern

Omnidirectional antennas

RX + TX with vertical separation (Bajonett)


RX, RX div. , TX with vertical separation (fork)

Vertical decoupling is much more effective

Diversity
Coverage Improvement?
Diversity gain depends on environment
Is there coverage improvement by diversity ?
antenna diversity
equivalent to 5dB more signal strength
more path loss acceptable in link budget
higher coverage range

R(div) ~ 1,3 R

A
1,7 A ??
70% more coverage per cel
needs less cells in total ??

True only (in theory) if the


environment is infinitely large
and flat

Output power before combining can be up to 49 dBm

Isolator + combiner + filter (AFH) give roughly 2.5 dB losses

Booster BTS is suitable for all the environments where


enhanced coverage or high output power is needed

Theoretically, cell radius is enhanced up to 60% and the


coverage area is roughly the triple
