High-level I&C Process

To put the I&C activities in the context of overall system deployment, Figure 2 provides a ‘flow’ of the key activities that are performed prior to and during the installation and commissioning of the Ripwave Base Station. Post-I&C, the system that has been installed and commissioned goes through Acceptance Testing against the customer’s objectives for that site. Once customer sign­off on the site is achieved, the customer becomes fully responsible for operating the system.
Different job holders may perform various portions of these activities and not necessarily all of the activities. In fact, Marketing and Engineering personnel typically handle the earlier tasks, while installation may be a stand-alone function. Commissioning may or may not be handled by the same people who designed or installed the site. Regardless of who does them, these key activities have to be accomplished for successful deployment:
Site Selection, Design, and Preparation
Physical Installation
Commissioning, with Acceptance Testing and Sign-off
Prior to installation, Navini and the customer formulate a Project Plan and Responsibility Assignment Matrix (RAM) to clarify who will do what to complete the I&C activities. If requested by the customer, Navini may provide personnel, procedures, forms, and/or tools required to install and commission the Base Station equipment. They may also provide special commissioning software programs, computers, and any other special test equipment required.
As part of the I&C duties, all testing results are recorded and kept for the customer to review and approve. These test results include the cable sweeps, the BTS Calibration Verification, RF System Tests, Drive Study, Line-of-Sight (LOS) FTP tests, and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) FTP test results. The I&C Supervisor provides site tracking and weekly status reports. All of these tasks can be negotiated with the customer.
If Navini Networks is hired by a customer to provide Installation & Commissioning Services, involvement and some actual deliverables are still required by the customer. For example, the customer will need to review or perhaps even explain their Site Design Specifications, approve Logistics Plans, provide shipping information, approve the Network Architecture Plan, etc.
As part of a successful hand-off from Navini to the customer, it is usually necessary for Navini to provide some product training to customer personnel who will support the Base Station operation on-going. Customers may opt to take on a Train-the-Trainer program, in which case Navini certifies the customer’s instructors who then provide staff training thereafter.

Base Station Components

Base Transceiver Station (BTS)

The BTS consists of the RF Power Amplifiers (PA’s), the digital circuit cards, the backplane, and the mechanical enclosure or housing. It performs the signal processing and RF transmission for the system. There are two types of chassis: Combo and Split. The Combo Chassis is used primarily with 2.4 GHz systems. The Split Chasses is used for all other (2.3, 2.5, 2.6 GHz) systems (Figure 3).
The chassis is compartmentalized into two sections - the RF shelf and the Digital shelf. The BTS connects to the network using a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection or up to 8 T1 interfaces. Up to three BTS assemblies can be installed per system, depending on the configuration. The BTS specifications are provided later in this document.

Radio Frequency Subsystem (RFS)

The Radio Frequency Subsystem (RFS) is mounted on a transmission tower or building rooftop. It transmits and receives data to and from the Ripwave Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) using a digital beamforming transmission technique. The RFS may be either a panel antenna or an omni antenna (Figure 4).
An RFS panel transmits in a directional mode, covering a transmit angle of 120 degrees. The antenna can be used as a single mode antenna, or it can be used in a group of two or three sectored antennas, covering 240 and 360 degrees respectively. Each panel requires a BTS to operate. For example, in a tri-sectored cell with 3 panels, you would need 3 BTS’s. The omni antenna provides omni-directional coverage of 360 degrees.
An RFS panel or omni contains eight (8) antenna elements, cavity filters, and, optionally, low noise amplifiers (LNA). For downtilt, the omni must be situated as it comes from the factory. A panel’s downtilt can be adjusted at the site. The higher up the antenna is placed, the more downtilt it typically requires.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

One or two Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas are used with each Base Station. A GPS antenna works with a constellation of satellites that orbit the earth, and it provides the ability to pinpoint geographical locations. The two types of GPS antennas that may be ordered with a Ripwave Base Station are the VIC 100 and the Motorola Timing 2000 (Figure 5).

Mounting Racks & Enclosures

The BTS can be installed indoors or outdoors in industry standard 19- or 23-inch racks. Rack adapters are needed to mount the equipment in a standard 23-inch rack. For outdoor BTS’s, the customer can supply any standard enclosure from a multitude of vendors. Figure 6 shows 3 BTS’s installed indoors.

General Specifications

Input Power

The BTS requires +21 to 28 VDC power supply rated at 60 amps (combo chassis) and at 50 (RF shelf) and 20 (Digital shelf) for the split chassis. Installers are referred to industry standards for power supply installations.

Humidity

The operating environment of the BTS must control relative humidity to 5% to 95% RH, non­condensing.

Heat Dissipation

The combo BTS chassis, under normal operating conditions, will dissipate a maximum of 1000 Watts or 3415 BTU’s. The split chassis will dissipate a maximum of 1500 watts.

Airflow

Fresh air intake for the BTS chassis is along the lower front vertical panel. Exhaust is out of the upper rear of the chassis. The I&C crew must ensure there are no obstacles to airflow present in these areas. Exhaust air from other equipment should not mix with the BTS fresh air intake.

Accessibility

The BTS is intended for installation and use only in a restricted access location.
