MTS Overview
Motorola TETRA Station (MTS) is a Base Station of a Dimetra IP communication system. A Base Station serves as
the Radio Frequency (RF) interface between the system infrastructure and the mobile stations. Base Stations in a
trunked system have three primary interfaces:
•Receiver to pick up the RF signal from the mobile stations
•Transmitter to send RF signals to the mobile stations
Wired interface to send audio and control traffic to the system infrastructure
•
Strategically placed base stations allow users to communicate with other mobile stations, dispatch operators, or
telephone users using the Dimetra IP system.
MTS Platform Description
The MTS provides the interface between the mobile stations within the Dimetra IP system and the rest of the system
infrastructure. The MTS performs the following functions:
•Radio link formatting, coding, timing, framing, and error control
•Timing control supervision to mobile stations (Timing Advance)
Radio link quality measurements (Signal Quality Estimate)
•
•Site to site frame synchronization
•Interface translation
•Switching functions between multiple base transceivers (radio carriers)
•Air Interface Encryption
•Local Site Trunking
•Operation, maintenance, and administration agent
There are three different versions of MTS:
•MTS LiTE – available in 400 MHz and 800 MHz versions.
•MTS 2 – available in 260 MHz, 400 MHz, 800 MHz and 900 MHz versions.
•MTS 4 – available in 260 MHz, 400 MHz, and 800 MHz versions.
MTS LiTE is the smallest of the three versions and supports one Base Radio. MTS 2 is the middle size version of the
MTSs and supports from one to two Base Radios. MTS 4 is the largest of the three versions and supports from one to
four Base Radios. The MTS 4 Expansion cabinet supports up to 4 additional Base Radios.
You build up MTS LiTE, MTS 2, and MTS 4 inside cabinets. The MTS cabinets contain card cages. The same card
cage is used in MTS 2 and MTS 4 while a separate card cage type is used in MTS LiTE, which in turn house different
configurations of modules, for example, Power Supply Units, Base Radios, and Site Controllers. These modules
provide the MTSs functionality. The configuration and number of modules determine the MTSs functionality and
capacity.

Base Radio Module
The Base Radio (BR) provides reliable digital communication capabilities. Each Base Radio contains the following
subcomponents:
•Transceiver
•Power Amplifier (PA)
Base Radio Transceiver
The transceiver provides the BRs with signal transmission, receiving, processing, and modulation functions,
incorporating a Base Radio Controller (BRC), Receiver (RCV), and Exciter (EXC).
The BRC serves as the main controller of the Base Radio, and provides signal processing and operational control for
the other Base Radio modules.
Base Radio Power Amplifier
The Power Amplifier (PA) in conjunction with the exciter provides the transmitter functions for the Base Radio. The
PA accepts the low-level modulated RF signal from the exciter and amplifies the signal for transmission through the
RF output connector.
Power Supply Unit
Depending on the configuration, the MTS includes one or two Power Supply Units (PSUs).
The PSU allows the MTS to operate in any of the following configurations:
•
DC power supply
•AC power supply
•AC power supply with a DC backup battery
Backup Battery
The PSU handles the automatic switchover to a backup battery in the event of an AC power supply failure. The MTS
charges the backup battery during normal AC operation. A temperature sensor monitors the backup batteries
temperature to ensure optimum charging.
Note: The recommended batteries to be used are a Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) recombination
type, with -48 VDC nominal. Such as Enersys Power safe VFT type.
Cooling Fans
One or more fan modules generate an airflow through the MTS cabinets to manage their temperature. Each module is
comprised of two fans. Revolution of the fans is monitored by a sensor. In the event of a failure, an alarm will be
generated.
Note: Low-power configurations of MTS LiTE and MTS 2 can be operated without cooling fans.

Radio Frequency Distribution System
The Radio Frequency Distribution System (RFDS) distributes and manages the communications network frequencies
and mitigates interference between multiple radios, allowing them to operate simultaneously. This results in improved
radio reception performance across the frequency ranges where multiple transmitters are broadcasting.
RFDS Theory of Operation
The RFDS module is made up of the following subcomponents:
•Preselector (MTS LiTE, MTS 2, and MTS 4)
•Duplexer (MTS LiTE, MTS 2, and MTS 4)
Cavity Combiners (MTS 4 and Expansion Cabinet)
•
•Hybrid Combiner (MTS 2, MTS 4 uses either HC or CC)
•Post Filter (MTS 4 only)
•RX Splitter (Expansion Cabinet only)
The RFDS module supports the combining and filtering of multiple Base Radio transmitters to one or more antenna
outputs. The RFDS module supports up to triple receive diversity. Signals are filtered by either the Duplexer or the
Preselector, then amplified and distributed by the integrated Receiver Multicoupler (RMC). In configurations with an
Expansion Cabinet, the RX-splitter is used to distribute the received signal.
The RFDS also conditions the transmit and receive signal using filters. After combining the Base Radio transmitters
in the Hybrid Combiner (or in the Cavity Combiner in the case of the MTS 4), the transmit signals are filtered in the
transmit path of the Duplexer, which supplies the antenna connector on the cabinet.
MTS LiTE, MTS 2 and MTS 4, with or without Expansion Cabinet configuration, use different types of RFDS
modules. The following are the distinct differences:
•MTS 2 supports Hybrid Combiners
•MTS 4 supports Cavity Combiners or Hybrid Combiners
•MTS LiTE/MTS 2 and MTS 4 do not use the same filters and mechanics for the filter tray
•MTS LiTE support one RF channel
•MTS 2 supports up to two RF channels
•MTS 4 supports up to four RF channels
•Expansion Cabinet supports eight RF channels (four in MTS 4 Prime Cabinet and four in MTS 4 Expansion
Cabinet)
MTS 2 only has up to two carriers (the frequency that it sends out) and, as a result there are no Post Filters for a nonduplexed operation. A non-duplexed operation is achieved using a Duplexer as the Post Filter and not using the
receive path of the Duplexer. This configuration does not allow room for a third Preselector inside the cabinet;
however, it is possible to situate one outside the cabinet, for example, on the wall.

CAN Bus
The intercommunication between the RFDS units (the Duplexers, Post Filters, and Cavity Combiners) and the Site
Controller is carried out through the CAN Bus at 125 kB/second. The connectors for the CAN Bus are RJ45
connectors. The CAN Bus is terminated at each end, either by the Site Controller or by an RJ45 terminator.
Each device is registered at the Site Controller (SC), which specifies the particular channel for each unit. Every 30
seconds, each unit on the CAN Bus transmits status and alarm information. Alarms are triggered when any thresholds
are exceeded, (failure alarms, software revisions, and so on). The following common information is available from
the CAN Bus: serial number, TrackID, software revisions, and the Motorola kit number. For each unit, specific
information is available, for example, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) for DPMs and tuning information for
Cavity Combiners.
The receive path of the Preselector or Duplexer is not connected to the CAN Bus. Because the supply voltage is
supplied from the Base Radio, the Base Radio can withstand a short or 50 ohms connection to the RX input without
the Base Radio or the Power Supply Unit (PSU) being damaged.
For more information on CAN Bus, see Site Controller CAN Bus on page 271.
RFDS Frequency Band and Bandwidth
MTS LiTE, MTS 2 and MTS 4 are available in the 350 MHz– 470 MHz range. The bandwidth of the filters is 5 MHz
and the duplex spacing is 10 MHz.
MTS 2 and MTS 4 are available in the 260 MHz– 275 MHz range. The bandwidth of the filters is 6 MHz and the
duplex spacing is 9 MHz.
MTS LiTE, MTS 2 and MTS 4 are also available in the 851 MHz – 870 MHz range. The bandwidth of the filters is 19
MHz and the duplex spacing is 45 MHz.
MTS LiTE and MTS 2 RFDS
In terms of RFDS, MTS 2 uses a low-power, cost effective RFDS placed on top of a card cage, intended for up to 2
Base Radios. For MTS LiTE, the RFDS is placed beside the card cage intended for only 1 Base Radio.
The RFDS in MTS LiTE and MTS 2 is made up of the following:
•One or two Preselectors with integrated high performance low noise amplifier (LNA). The supply voltage for the
LNA is supplied through the RX out connected to the Base Radios. The Preselector has two outlets for two Base
Radios. The dimensions of the filter are: 85 x 280 x 70 mm, excluding connectors. The antenna connectors are
DIN 7–16, the receive side is connected with QMA connectors. See the block schematic of the MTS LiTE/MTS 2
Preselector in Figure 142: Schematic Diagram of MTS LiTE / MTS 2 Preselector
Note: MTS LiTE supports up to one Preselector.
•One or two Duplexers rated for up to two TETRA modulated carriers. The antenna connectors are DIN 7–16, the
transmit side is connected with QN connectors. The Duplexer has an integrated digital VSWR meter. The supply
voltage for the digital VSWR meter is supplied through the CAN Bus interface. The receive side has integrated
LNA as for the Preselector and two RX outputs (QMA). The supply voltage for the LNA is supplied through the
RX ports. The filter dimensions are approximately: 170 x 280 x 70 mm excluding connectors. See the block

Note:
MTS LiTE supports one Duplexer.
Because the MTS 2 has only up to two carriers, there is no need for Post Filters for non-duplexed
operation (you can achieve non-duplexed operation by using the Duplexer as the Post Filter and not
using the receive path of the Duplexer).
•Hybrid Combiner. MTS 2 can have either a Hybrid Combiner for transmission on one antenna, or without
combining for transmission on two separate antennas.
MTS 2 is equipped with a digital voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) monitor to ensure site availability at remote
low-traffic sites and for public safety customers. The digital VSWR monitor can make a quite accurate VSWR
reading because the measurement is relative between the forward and reverse power.
The VSWR monitor does not have the same accuracy in power reading as the digital power monitor (DPM) in the
MTS 4, but it still allows a cost-effective monitoring of the integrity of the antenna.

Cavity Combiner
Note: MTS 2 does not support Cavity Combiners.
There are two types of Cavity Combiners available:
•Auto Tune Cavity Combiners (ATCC)
•Manual Tune Cavity Combiners (MTCC)
MTCCs are functionally the same as ATCCs except that they are tuned manually instead of electronically.
Note: 260 MHz configurations does not support MTCC.
Minimum channel spacing of the TX channels is 150 kHz while the recommended channel spacing is 250 kHz. This
limitation applies to all Cavity Combiners in all cabinets connected to the same transmit antenna.

Exhibit D2
Cavity Combiner - Theory of Operation
A minimum of 2 watts is needed at a cavity input. The ATCC will automatically tune in 40 seconds maximum. For
more detail, see the ATCC specification.
Once an RF signal greater than 2 watts is detected, the ATCC tunes the cavity and continuously keeps it tuned over
humidity, temperature and changing transmit frequency, so long as it does not sense one of the following alarm
conditions:
•Channel Spacing alarm
•VSWR alarm
•
Failure to Tune alarm
Being tuned means that a cavity is within the insertion loss specification at the frequency of the applied PI/4DQPSK
or QAM4,16,64 signal that is within the average input power range specified above. Being tuned also means that the
cavity peak response is no greater than 25 kHz away from the TX carrier center frequency. If the TX carrier does not
change channel or average power level, the auto tune algorithm will not initiate a re-tuning on its own which exceeds
+/- 300 kHz from the carrier frequency. The only exception occurs when the fine tune timer event happens. The fine
tune timer is used to compensate for large variations in humidity and is default set to 480 Minutes. The Cavity
Combiner is temperature compensated but large variations in humidity can de-tune the cavities up to 150 kHz with
the result of an increasing insertion loss.
When the fine tune timer event occurs, all cavities with RF applied will be re-tuned for maximum output power of
each TX carrier. The fine tune timer can be adjusted to compensate for fast humidity variations; for instance if the
MTS 4 is installed in outdoor sites without air-conditioning. The recommended setting of the fine tune timer, if the
MTS 4 is installed in a controlled environment, is 480 Minutes. For sites where the MTS 4 is exposed to more than
+/- 20% variation in RH, the recommended setting of the fine tune timer is 60-200 minutes depending on the speed of
the variation.
Having a second cavity tune up and pass through the desired channel, the desired channels insertion loss dips no more
than 3 dB more than the max insertion spec for a period of 0.25 seconds. The cavity tuning rate should be faster than
1 MHz per second.
The following list contains control and monitoring features available through the CAN Bus:
•Request current tuned position/frequency of a specific cavity.
•Fine tune time feature, to re-tune each cavity with a specified interval.
•Park an individual cavity, but if RF power is still present, cavity will park and then retune again.
•Input power: request current measured input reflected power of a specific cavity.
•VSWR: request input VSWR of an individual cavity.
•Tuning status of each cavity; parked, tuning, tuned, and parking.
•Alarm conditions of each cavity are reported when requested, including : VSWR, subband, channel spacing and
failure to tune.

The CAN Bus provides a common communication bus between RFDS equipment, Power Supply Unit (PSU) and the
Site Controller. The CAN Bus connects to the Site Controller, PSU, DPM, and ATCC. The modules on the CAN Bus
are assigned an address for the CAN Bus. When there are more than one modules of the same type, assigned a
functionality in MTS to each node. Mapping between the track number, CAN ID, and function relies on the fact that
the unique track number is available from each unit.
At initialization of the MTS, the factory configures the Site Controller with a relation between track number and the
function of the node. You can modify this configuration in a service situation.
If a node is removed or is defective, the Site Controller knows the track number of a non-responding FRU and
therefore it can make a proper service report which tells exactly what FRU to replace. When the service is carried out,
