QUAD+2 Base Radio Overview
QUAD+2 Base Radio Theory of Operation
The QUAD+2 Channel BR operates together with other site controllers and equipment that are properly terminated. The following description assumes such a configuration. Figure 1-11 shows an overall block diagram of the QUAD+2 Channel BR.
Power is applied to the DC Power inputs located on the QUAD+2 Channel BR backplane. The DC Power input is connected if -48 VDC or batteries are used in the site.
Power is applied to the BR by setting the Power Supply power switch to the ON position. Upon power-up, the QUAD+2 Channel BR performs self­diagnostic tests to ensure the integrity of the unit. These tests, which include memory and Ethernet verification routines, primarily examine the EX / CNTL.
After completing self-diagnostic tests, the QUAD+2 Channel BR reports alarm conditions on any of its modules to the site controller via Ethernet. Alarm conditions may also be verified locally. Local verification involves using the service computer and the STATUS port located on the front of the QUAD+2 Channel BR.
The software resident in FLASH on the XCVR registers the BR with the site controller via Ethernet. After BR registration on initial power-up, the BR software downloads via Ethernet and executes from RAM. The download includes operating parameters for the QUAD+2 Channel BR. These param­eters allow the QUAD+2 Channel BR to perform call processing functions.

QUAD+2 Base Radio Overview
After software downloads to the BR via Ethernet, FLASH memory stores the software object. Upon future power-ups, the software object in FLASH loads into RAM for execution.
The BR operates in a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) mode. This mode, combined with voice compression techniques, increases channel capacity by a ratio of as much as six to one. TDMA divides both the receive and transmit signals of the BR into six individual time slots. Each receive slot has a corresponding transmit slot. This pair of slots comprises a logical RF channel.
The BR uses diversity reception for increased coverage area and improved quality. The Receiver modules within the QUAD+2 Channel BR contain three receiver paths. Two-branch diversity sites use two Receiver paths, and three­branch diversity sites use three Receiver paths.
All Receiver paths within the Transceiver module are programmed to the same receiver frequency. Signals from each receiver are diversity combined and undergo error-correction. Then, via Ethernet, the site controller acquires the signal, along with control information about signal destination.
Two separate FRUs comprise the transmit section of the QUAD+2 Channel BR. These are the Exciter and Control (XCVR) portion of the Transceiver and the Power Amplifier (PA). The Exciter processes commands from the CNTL, assuring transmission in the proper modulation format. Then the low-level signal enters the PA. The PA amplifies this signal to the desired output power level. The PA is a continuously keyed linear amplifier. A power control routine monitors the output power of the BR. The routine adjusts the power as necessary to maintain the proper output level.

QUAD+2 Base Radio Overview
The transceiver (XCVR) module provides the control, exciter and receiver functions for the Base Radio.
The XCVR generates the station reference which typically needs to be locked on to one of many possible external sources. The external source can be either the site controller 20 MHz TDM clocks or the external reference operating at 5 or 10 MHz.
The XCVR SPI bus allows communication with its receiver and exciter circuitry, as well as the power supply and power amplifier modules.
The XCVR circuit board contains two major sections:
n XCVR Control : Performs the control management, digital signal
processing, and transmit and receive data formatting for the Base Radio.
n XCVR RF : Contains DC power conversion/regulation and performs
receiver and exciter functions.

The main operating software for the base radio is loaded in the XCVR’s control section. As the main manager for the base radio, the XCVR control provides operational control over the other station modules. It handles three types of information flow, in the following ways:
n Serves as a gateway between the network and RF functionality, by
distributing the RF payload to and from the network
n Supports operational and diagnostic functions with digital control data (for
example: site information, channel assignments, and identification numbers for call processing)
n Ensures the flow of other network management configuration information

In addition to DC power conversion/regulation, the XCVR RF section provides circuitry for the following receiver and exciter functions.
Exciter
The exciter on the XCVR RF section provides the transmitter functions for the base radio. The exciter circuitry generates a low-level, modulated RF signal that passes to the power amplifier. It supports various modulation types as well as bandwidths up to 25 kHz, through software programming.
The exciter also provides a controlled output power level to the power amplifier.

Non-Volatile Memory
Base Radio software resides in a minimum of 32M x 16 bits of Compact FLASH memory and 16M x 16 bits of additional board FLASH. The Host Microprocessor addresses the Compact FLASH memory with 4 of the host address bus’ 32 lines in conjunction with the data lines. The host accesses FLASH data over the 16-line host data bus. A host-operated chip-select line provides control signals for these transactions.
FLASH memory contains the operating system and application code. The system stores application code in Compact FLASH for fast recovery from reset conditions. Application code transfers from network or site controllers may occur in a background mode. Background mode transfers allow the station to remain operational during new code upgrades.
The data that determines the station personality (codeplug) resides in the 16M x 16 bit FLASH. The microprocessor addresses the FASH with 24 of the host address bus’ 32 lines. The host accesses FLASH data with 16 of the data bus’ 32 lines. A host-operated chip-select line provides control signals for these transactions.
During the manufacturing process, the factory programs the codeplug’s default data. The BRC must download field programming data from network and site controllers. This data includes operating frequencies and output power level. The station permits adjustment of many station parameters, but the station does not store these adjustments. Refer to the Software Commands chapter for additional information.
Volatile Memory
Each BRC contains 16MB x 32 bits of SDRAM. The BRC downloads station software code into SDRAM for station use. SDRAM also provides short-term storage for data generated and required during normal operation. SDRAM is volatile memory. A loss of power or system reset destroys SDRAM data.
The system performs read and write operations over the Host Address and Data buses. These operations involve column and row select lines under control of the Host processor’s DRAM controller. The Host address bus and column row signals sequentially refresh SDRAM memory locations.
Ethernet Interface
The Host processor’s Communications Processor Module (CPM) provides the Local Area Network (LAN) Controller for the Ethernet Interface. The LAN function implements the CSMA/CD access method, which supports the IEEE
802.3 10Base2 standard.

QUAD+2 Channel Base Radio Transceiver
The DSP inputs are digitized receiver signals. The DSP outputs are digitized voice audio and data (modulation signals). These signals pass from the DSP to the Exciter section of the QUAD+2. DSP communicates with the Micropro­cessor via a 32-bit, host data bus on the host processor side. Interrupts drive communication between the DSP and the host.
The DSP operate from an external 49 MHz clock, provided by the CPLD and phase locked to the 16.8 MHz local station reference clock. The DSP internal core operating clock signal is 394MHz, produced by an internal Phase­Locked Loop (PLL).
The DSP accepts receive digitized signals from the 2QIC through the Time­Division Multiplexing (TDM) interface ports. The QUAD+2 uses 3 of these ports. All 3 ports use the same clock and framesync signals to input data. Each port handles digital data for 1 of the 3 branches. Each port handles digitized data for 6 channels, 2 status words, and 2 power detect words.
The QUAD+2 accesses its DSP program and signal-processing algorithms in 1440 kB of internal memory. The DSP communicates with the host bus over an 32-bit interface.
The DSP communicates with the 2QIC to provide serial communications to the receiver paths for receiver control over a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) link. The 2QIC provides a parallel-to-serial conversion circuit that accepts parallel data from the DSP and serial data to the receive circuitry.
The DSP sends up to six carriers of digitized signal to the 2QIC along with embedded control signals. Two framed and synchronized data streams are output. One data stream is I-data, and the other is the Q-data stream. The control bits are appendended at the end of the data streams. The 2QIC extracts and applies the control signals. The 2QIC synchronizes the 2QIC I and Q output frames with system timing signals that exist in the 2QIC. The synchro­nized outputs are sent to a Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) in the exciter section that converts the digital signals to analog.

The 2QIC controls internal DSP operations. This circuit provides the following functions:
The 2QICplus is a DSP programmable FPGA that provides the circuit integration needed to condition, route and control receive and transmit data between the RF circuitry and the DSP, and provide consolidated monitoring and control for QUAD+2 transceiver.

Station Reference Circuitry
The Station Reference Circuitry is a phase-locked loop (PLL). This PLL consists of a high-stability, Voltage-Controlled, Crystal Oscillator (VCXO) and a PLL IC. GPS output from the iSC connects to the 5 MHz/1 PPS BNC connector on the BR backplane. Wiring at this connector routes signals to EXBRC station reference circuitry.
The PLL compares the 5 MHz reference frequency to the 16.8 MHz VCXO output. Then the PLL generates a DC correction voltage. The PLL applies this correction voltage to the VCO through an analog gate. The analog gate closes when three conditions coexist: (1) The 5 MHz tests stable. (2) The PLL IC is programmed. (3) Two PLL oscillator and reference signal output alignments occur.
A loss of the 5 MHz/1PPS signal causes the control voltage enable switch to open. This permits the PLL to free run, which allows the BR to retain a clock for control purposes.
When the gate enables, the control voltage from the PLL can adjust the high­stability VCXO frequency. The adjustment can achieve a stability nearly equivalent to that of the external, 5 MHz frequency reference.

QUAD+2 Channel Base Radio Transceiver
The correction voltage from the PLL continuously adjusts the VXCO frequency. The VXCO outputs a 16.8 MHz clock signal. The circuit applies this clock signal to the receiver, 48 MHz reference and TISIC.
The receivers use the 16.8MHz as the clock input and synthesizer reference.
The 48 MHz EXBRC synthesizer uses the 16.8 MHz as its synthesizer reference. The 48 MHz synthesizer output is the clock input for the TXDSP I and Q data reclock circuitry.
The TISIC divides the 16.8 MHz signal by seven, and outputs a 2.4 MHz signal. This output signal then becomes the 2.4 MHz reference for the Exciter.
Input Ports
One general-purpose input register provides for BRC and station circuit input signals. The register has 16 input ports. The Host Data Bus conveys input register data to the Host Microprocessor. Typical inputs include 16.8 and 48 MHz Station Reference Circuitry status outputs and reset status outputs.
Output Ports
Two general-purpose output registers distribute control signals from the Host Microprocessor to the BRC and station circuitry. One register has 32 output ports and the other register has 8 output ports. Control signal distribution occurs over the backplane. The Host Data Bus drives the output ports’ latched outputs. Typical control signals include front-panel LED signals and SPI peripheral enable and address lines.
Remote Station Shutdown
The BRC contains power supply shutdown circuitry. This circuitry can send a shutdown pulse to the Base Radio Power Supply. BRC software generates the shutdown control pulse.
After receiving a shutdown pulse, the power supply turns off BR power. Shut down power sources include 3.3, 28.6 and 14.2 Vdc sources throughout the BR. Due to charges retained by BR storage elements, power supply voltages may not reach zero. The shutdown only assures that the host processor enters a power-on-reset state.
A remote site uses the shutdown function to perform a hard reset of all BR modules.

A/D Converter Circuitry
Analog signals from various areas throughout the Exciter board enter the A/D converter (A/DC). The A/DC converts these analog signals to digital form. Upon request of the BRC, A/DC output signals enter the BRC via SPI lines. The Controller periodically monitors all signals.
Some of the monitored signals include amplifier bias and synthesizer signals.
Low Noise Offset Direct Conversion Transmit (LNODCT) IC Circuitry
The Low Noise IC is a main interface between the Exciter and BRC. The BRC’s Digital Signal Processor (DSP) sends digitized signals (baseband data) to the Exciter over the DSP data bus.
The differential data clock signal serves as a 2.4 MHz reference signal to the Low Noise IC’s internal synthesizer. The Low Noise IC compares the reference signal with the outputs of Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs). The Low Noise IC might sense that a VCO’s output is out of phase or off­frequency. If so, then the Low Noise IC sends correction pulses to the VCO. The pulses adjust VCO output, thereby matching phase and frequency with the reference.
5-May-06
The Low Noise IC up-converts baseband data from the BRC to the transmit frequency. The Low Noise IC also down-converts the Transmit signal from the Power Amplifier to baseband data for cartesian feedback linearization.
The BRC uses the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus to communicate with the Low Noise IC. The SPI bus serves as a general purpose, bi-directional, serial link between the BRC and other Base Radio modules, including the Exciter. The SPI carries control and operational data signals to and from Exciter circuits.
Synthesizer Circuitry
The synthesizer circuit consists of the Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) IC and associated circuitry. This circuit’s controls the 1025 MHz VCO signal. An internal phase detector generates a logic pulse. This pulse is proportional to the phase or frequency difference between the reference frequency and loop pulse signal.
The charge pump circuit generates a correction signal. The correction signal moves up or down in response to phase detector output pulses. The correction signal passes through the low-pass loop filter. The signal then enters the 1025 MHz Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) circuit.

1025 MHz Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
For proper operation, the VCO requires a very low-noise, DC supply voltage. An ultra low-pass filter prepares the necessary low-noise voltage and drives the oscillator.
A portion of the oscillator output signal enters the synthesizer circuitry. The circuitry uses this feedback signal to generate correction pulses.
The 1025MHz VCO output mixes with the 90.3 MHz VCO output. The result is a Local Oscillator [LO) signal for the Low Noise IC. The LNODCT uses this LO signal to up-convert the programmed transmit frequency. The Low Noise IC also uses the LO signal to down-convert the PA feedback signal.
90.3 MHz Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
The synthesizer within the Low Noise IC sets the 90.3 MHz signal. The 90.3 MHz VCO provides a LO signal to the LNODCT IC. The Low Noise IC uses this signal in up-converting and down-converting the feedback signal.
Regulator Circuitry
The voltage regulators generate three regulated voltages: +3 Vdc, +5 Vdc and +11.7 Vdc. The regulators obtain input voltages from the +3.3 Vdc and +14.2 Vdc backplane voltages. The regulated voltages power various ICs and RF devices in the Exciter.
Linear RF Amplifier Stages
The linear RF amplifiers boost the RF signal from the Low Noise IC. The RF Amplifier generates an appropriate signal level to drive the PA.

The up/down pulses enter a charge pump circuit. The charge pump outputs a DC voltage proportional to the pulse widths. After low-pass filtering, this DC voltage enters the VCO circuit as the control voltage. The control voltage measures between +2.5 VDC and +7.5 VDC.
The DC control voltage from the synthesizer enters the VCO. The VCO generates the RF signal that the circuit uses to produce the 1st LO injection signal. The VCO responds to the DC control voltage by generating the appro­priate RF signal. This signal passes through a buffer to the 1st LO injection amplifier. A sample of this signal returns to the PLL IC through a buffer to close the VCO feedback loop.
Receiver Front End Circuitry
The station receive RF signal enters the Receiver through the RF-type connector on the back of the Receiver board. The circuit low-pass filters and amplifies this signal. The amplified output passes through an image filter before entering the 1st mixer. The signal mixes with the 1st LO injection signal to produce a 73.35 MHz 1st IF signal.
The 1st IF signal passes through a four-pole, bandpass filter and enters a buffer amplifier. The buffer amplifier output signal again undergoes four­pole, bandpass filtering. The resultant signal then passes through a digital attenuator. The BRC determines the amount of attenuation. The resulting signal then enters the RF input of the custom Receiver IC.

through the use of a cool air intake. The fan assembly consists of three individual fans in which airflow is directed across the PA heatsink.
The current draw of the fans is monitored by the DC/Metering Board. A voltage representative of the current draw is monitored by the BRC. The BRC flags the iSC if an alarm is triggered.

QUAD+2 Channel Power Supply Overview
The power supply contains an AC supply and a fully integrated battery charger, and power sensing circuitry that allows the unit to revert to regulated DC operation automatically in the event of an AC power interruption.
The supply operates from either an AC or DC input and provides the DC operating voltage for the Base Radio or Site Controller.
When operating from an AC source (90 to 264 VAC, 47-63 Hz), the supply generates two DC output voltages of 29 VDC with respect to output ground. The power supply automatically adjusts to AC input ranges and supplies a steady output. In AC mode, the power supply contains a separate battery charger which can be used to maintain the charge on a 48 VDC nominal system, positive or negative ground (if installed).
When operating from a DC source (43.2 VDC to 60 VDC, positive or negative ground), the supply generates two DC output voltages of 29 VDC with reference to output ground. The battery charger is not usable when operating from a DC input power source.
5-May-06
When both AC and DC sources are available, the power supply operates from the AC source. If the AC source is lost, the supply automatically switches to DC operating mode. When the AC source is restored, the power supply automatically returns to AC operating mode. Output is not interrupted when switching between AC and DC sources.

battery charger output is routed to the batteries when the charger is ON, and routes DC input power to the DC side converter when AC power is not available and DC operation is required.
The Power Factor Correction (PFC) Converter uses a boost converter stage to create a stable 400V source for use by the battery charger, AC side DC/ DC converter and AC housekeeping supplies.
The power supply is designed to operate with AC voltages greater then 90 VAC. To prevent operation below this value (which prevents excessive current draw during operation), an input undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is employed. U203 on the CPN6111 board provides this function.
DC Vcc is developed on the CPN6112 board by U303, a fully integrated switching converter. The 48VDC bulk cap C320 serve as the energy source for DC Vcc. When the voltage across C320 is more than 24VDC, U303 is enabled and begins operating.

DC Input Reverse Polarity Protection
DC input reverse polarity protection is implemented by components on the CPN6112 board. If the DC input is connected in the incorrect polarity, the output transistor of DS300 will be turned ON, pulling the gates of transistors Q301/Q303 to the same value as the DC input, preventing the transistors from turning ON. Also, the output transistor of U100 is turned ON, which prevents the AC converter section from starting up until the reversed polarity condition is corrected.

Circuit Description
The DC Input Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) function is implemented by using the EN pin (pin 1) of control IC U301 on the CPN6112 board. The resistor divider comprised of R307 and R308 reduce the DC input voltage at the EN pin of U301. When DC input rises above 44V, the voltage at pin 1 is above the enable threshold (going HIGH)
DC Input Undervoltage Lockout
DC Input Overvoltage Lockout
voltage level, enabling the IC which turns ON the blocking FET Q301. When DC bus voltage drops below 42V, the voltage at pin 1 drops below the enable threshold (going LOW) and Q301 is turned OFF. The UVLO can be overridden by controlling the ON state of Q305. If Q305 is turned ON, Q307 is turned OFF and DC Vcc is fed directly to the EN pin via D300, keeping U301 enabled regardless of the magnitude of DC input voltage.
The DC Input Overvoltage Lockout (OVLO) function is implemented by TL431 U304 on the CPN6112 board. Voltage divider consisting of R336, R337 and R360 divide down the DC input voltage to the reference pin of U304. When DC input voltage exceeds 62.4V, the voltage at the reference input of U304 exceeds 2.5V and triggers U304. Q306 is then turned ON which applies DC Vcc to the gate of Q308, turning it ON. This pulls the EN pin of U301 to GROUND, disabling U301 and turning OFF the DC input blocking FET Q301. Feedback resistor R342 introduces approximately 100mV hysteresis between the set and reset points of U304, preventing oscillations when the DC voltage exceeds the setpoint.

DC Output Overvoltage
DC output overvoltage protection is implemented by U600 on the CPN6112 board. Resistor divider R600 and R601 divide the 28V down to the reference pin of TL431 U600. When 28V exceeds 31.4V, U600 is triggered, turning ON Q600 which then turns ON Q601, pulling the shutdown signal line to ground. Feedback resistor R604 provides a small amount of hysteresis so that the shutdown signal does not oscillate when the DC voltage is close to the setpoint value.

Table 6-13 Power Supply Circuitry
Circuit Description
The principal method for output overcurrent protection is a primary-side current sense. This feature is implemented by TL431 ICs U702 (when the supply is operating from an AC source) or U1201 (when the supply is operating from a DC source). Both are located on the CPN6112 board.
DC Output Overcurrent
Aux Output Overcurrent
When the combined output current (the sum of the main and aux DC output current) exceeds 25A, the voltage at the reference pin of U702 (U1201) exceeds 2.5V and the TL431 is triggered. No hysteresis is incorporated into this setpoint because the shutdown of the supply immediately reduces the output current to zero (continuous operation with values approximately equal to the setpoint is not possible).
Control circuitry for the Aux DC output disables the Aux output if fault conditions are sensed. An overcurrent condition on the Aux output is sensed by control IC U2000 on the CPN6112 board. When the aux output current is high enough to develop 50mV across sense resistor R2004, U2000 removes the gate drive signal from blocking FET Q2000 and turns OFF the aux output. U2000 periodically attempts to turn Q2000 back ON, but the existence of an overcurrent condition causes U2000 to turn Q2000 back OFF until the fault is cleared and the output current results in a voltage across R2000 of less than 50mV.
Power Supply Enable
Power Supply Remote Shutdown
5-May-06
Enhanced Base Transceiver System (EBTS)
The power supply includes a feature historically referred to as a “pin 1 enable” due to the use of pin 1 in legacy designs. Small signal pin D4 must be connected to chassis ground in order to permit the power supply to operate. If D4 is not grounded, the supply will operate in hiccup mode until D4 is terminated to ground.
The power supply can be remotely shut down by writing 0xFFC to U7300 (DAC 1) channel “OUTE”. This causes pin 6 of U7300 to go HIGH, turning ON Q100 and initiating a shutdown timer cycle. Simultaneously, the PRESET pin of U7300 is pulled LOW by transistor Q7300, causing all DAC output channels to be reset to zeros (all DAC channels are set to zeros as part of the initialization routine). This ensures that a single reset timer cycle occurs and the power supply and platform software will restart/ reboot normally.

Circuit Description
The power supply includes a two-speed cooling fan. When power is first applied, the fan defaults to low
speed. If core software determines that the higher Power Supply Fan Speed Control

fan speed is needed, 0xCE4 is written to U7300
(DAC1) channel “OUTC”. This applies 3.3V to the
control lead of the fan and causes the fan to operate
at high speed. When the channel output is set to
zero (by writing 0x000), the fan resumes low speed.
To incorporate features such as battery capacity
testing, remote shutdown of the PFC section is
implemented through U505 (DAC2) channel
“OUTD” and Q506 on the CPN6111 board. When
0xFFC is written to OUTD, Q506 is turned ON which
turns ON the transistor of DS202. Transistor Q102
is turned OFF, which turns OFF Q113 and removes
Vcc from the PFC IC U101. When OUTD of U505 is
returned to LOW (either by writing 0x000 to OUTD,
by cycling the front panel ON/OFF switch, or
removing/ restoring AC input power) the PFC is
again enabled.

Battery Charger Control
Battery Charger Output Overvoltage Shutdown
The Battery Charger control circuit creates a DC
output voltage used to maintain the state of charge
on the DC input source (normally a battery backup).
Software turns ON and OFF the battery charger as
needed, and sets the output voltage as required for
the battery type selected.
Overvoltage shutdown of the battery charger occurs
when voltage in excess of 60V is sensed. This is
accomplished by TL431 U402 on the CPN6111
board. Resistor divider R418 and the parallel
combination of R419 and R437 provide a scaled
value of the output voltage to the reference pin of
U402. When output voltage exceeds 60V, U402 is
triggered, DS402 is turned OFF and the battery
charger control IC is disabled by Q303/Q302.
