PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND USER’S MANUAL
1 Introduction
Axell’s Digital Multi-Band Repeater for USA (D-MBR-USA) is an in-building, band-selective repeater with advanced digital filtering capabilities that operates in the LTE 700MHz (simultaneously in upper and lower band), CELL 850MHz, AWS 1700MHz and PCS 1900MHz bands. It provides an excellent single unit solution for multi-operators or for operators with a non-contiguous spectrum.
Up to eight or twelve (model dependent) non-contiguous sub-bands can be user configured for each band, where the gain and power of each of the sub-bands can be individually defined.
The Repeater provides highly accurate out-of-band-rejection and simple, GUI based procedures for adjusting the pass band according to the relevant frequency spectrums.
D-MBR-USA includes the SmartALC power control algorithm that automatically optimizes the gain setting by learning the actual range of RSSI levels over a user-specified period of time. The SmartALC algorithm prevents oscillations, reduces the amount of isolation required by the system and optimizes the system to minimize noise rise at the donor cell site.
GUI based web management is supported through both Ethernet and remote wireless connections provided by an integrated CDMA modem. Local setup can be performed through a connection to the Ethernet port using a cross-cable.

1.3 Smart-ALC Function
The Smart Automatic Level Control (Smart-ALC) is an innovative algorithm for automatic repeater gain adjustment. Combined with advanced control algorithms, SALC is capable of learning the traffic load characteristics and adjusting the Repeater RF Gain to the desired value.
Smart ALC eliminates the need to perform initial settings for maximal traffic load conditions and on­site gain adjustments.
Smart-ALC maintains the Uplink/Downlink gain balance for system transparency. In addition, Smart­ALC prevents oscillations that may occur due to insufficient isolation while maintaining the gain in a linear range operation by adjusting the repeater paths’ gain accordingly.
IMOP (Isolation Measurement and Oscillation Prevention) algorithm effectively reduces oscillation problems.
The repeater’s power amplifier includes power-monitoring circuits with Automatic Level Control (ALC) that prevents excessive output power while maintaining the power amplifier linearity.
