Giesonwell LK103050 Home Signal Booster

Introduction

Booster is a kind of repeater that can improve the mobile signal. The user’s Manual describes how to install our repeater products and how to use the monitor software. Please do read this manual carefully before installing repeater products.

What’s the repeater
We use mobile phone every day, but it might be not work in some areas because mobile signal from BTS(Base Transceiver Station) is shielded or too weak. Repeater is communication equipment that can be used to enhance wireless signal, it receives signal from BTS then enhances the signal and transfer to blind and weak areas, repeaters is often used in the following cases.

• Blind or weak signal areas are formed if the buildings are too far away from CELL TOWER, or the buildings themselves shield or absorb signals.
• There are too many complicated signals in the higher part of the buildings, therefore ping-pong switching effect has been formed and the signals fluctuate a lot, there are annoying noises during phone calls and call drops accordingly.
• Elevators and basements are well-known for blind areas.
• Downtown areas of the cities, which congested with many high-rise buildings, are usually the weak or blind areas.
• The remote villages, mountains, hills, valleys, etc. are mostly populated areas with quite few mobile users, so the main target is to send coverage to these areas, and it will not be worthy installing a CELLTOWER, therefore a booster is a quite good option.

Warning

• Do not open the repeater and touch the module or IC, the repeater may be damaged due to electrostatic.
• Do not touch the shell of repeater or be careful during working a long time, and do not cover repeater with anything, the repeater dissipate heat and may be too hot.
• The power supply voltage of repeater should meet the standards of security requirements.

Installation of Home Booster

Installation proposal

• For indoor repeater, it is installed in a cool, dry and ventilated room as recommend and the installation place should be easy for heat dissipation and maintainable.

• Generally the installation place should have AC power supply, and the requirement of AC is 90~264VAC / 50±5Hz.

• For enhancing mobile signal of the area, the output power of repeater is very important, output power = input power + Gain, and the output power cannot exceed the rated power because repeater have ALC function, so it is important to test the signal strength received from donor antenna by mobile phone.
  For example:

  • input power = -55dBm
  • gain = 60dB
  • so output power = -55dBm + 60dB =5dBm

• For repeater of 60dB gain, the minimum horizontal distance between donor antenna and server antenna shall be more than 10meters, the direction of donor and server antennas shall be opposite, and it is recommend to increase the vertical distance between donor antenna and server antenna, if gain of repeater is large than 70dB and the distance between donor antenna and server antenna shall be more far away. You must make attention to the distance between donor antenna and server antenna, if the distance is too small, the repeater may be self-oscillation and may lead to more serious conditions.

Certification v04r02

Donor Antennas

• Antenna Kitting Section
  In order to comply with FCC/SED RF Exposure requirements:

  1. The donor antenna must be installed to provide at least 65 cm separation from the human body at all times
  2. The server antenna must be installed to provide at least 20 cm separation from the human body at all times
     Antenna systems to be used with 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r02 are limited per table below:

Donor Signals
A good donor signal, arriving as cleanly as possible, to the NU, is perhaps the most important consideration in driving the best experiences and outcomes with 935210 D02Signal Boosters Certification v04r02.
With regard to 4G or 5G, there are two metrics of particular importance to monitor and optimize：

1. RSRP. Reference Signal Receive Power. It is the power of the LTE Reference Signals spread over the full bandwidth and narrowband. A minimum of ‐20 dB SINR (of the S‐Synch channel) is needed to detect RSRP/RSRO.

In the context of Cel‐Fi 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r02, the following stratification of quality is recognized:

1. SINR. Signal to Noise Ratio. The SlNR is the ratio of the usable (desired) signal over the noise. The following metrics should be used when assessing SINR in the context of Cel‐FI 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r022.

Antenna Selection
There are a few considerations to make when determining the donor antenna.

1. How many serving sites? If there are multiple serving sites, and the design goal is to select a specific site, for loading, or any other reason, then a directional antenna would be required. If there is a single donor site, and not much RF contention than an omni-direction antenna could be considered, which would save a little time and energy in the install process, as it would not need to be aimed.
2. How much noise? If the site location is very noisy, then a strong directional antenna would be a good choice. as it will filter out some of the unwanted noise and improve SINR.
3. How strong is the serving signal? Although Cel‐Fi 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r02 has the highest gain of any system in its class, if the serving signal is extremely weak, then a high‐gain antenna may be required to connect the up link calls and to get the optimal DL power on the serving side.

Grounding and Lightning Protection
Installers of Cel‐Fi 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r02 are encouraged to follow the lightning protection guidelines documented in the National Electrical Code (NEC) and NFPA 780, and/or local codes.

Server Antennas

• The 935210 D02 Signal Boosters Certification v04r02 Coverage Unit has a single RF output port in the form of an N‐type female connector on the top of the unit. A single whip or blade‐style antenna can be attached directly, or a distributed antenna system can be deployed.

Antenna Selection
There are two types of indoor antenna to choose from:

• Omni-directional dome antennas broadcast and receive signals from all sides. They are designed for central locations with 360° coverage requirement. Like outdoor antennas, their power is measured by their “gain”. They are typically mounted to a ceiling for best results.
  Nextivity has standard dome antennas and also offers “low‐profile’ server antennas that are thin and occupy less visual space.

• Panel antennas are directional antennas. Panel antennas allow optimum reception to targeted areas. Like without door antennas, a directional antenna is stronger than an omnidirectional antenna which means the signals it broadcasts are stronger in a particular direction. It can be mounted to either the wall or ceiling. We usually recommend placing it on the ceiling for maximum coverage but in some spaces (like a long narrow hallway) the panel antenna can be placed on a wal1.

• Nextivity has a few different panel antenna options, with different levels of gain and directivity.
