What is a base station transmitter?

The goal of Base Station Transmits is to discuss challenges faced by engineers and technicians who must optimize today’s wireless networks. Topics include antenna systems, backhaul testing, interference, and meeting key performance indicators (KPIs)

How can a base station be tested?

It is also possible for fault finding and commissioning teams to place the base station in a test mode where it transmits a known “test model” signal in a given direction and strength. This allows radiation patterns to be established and field strength in complex environments to be measured.

How do new base stations work?

Many new base stations utilize fiber optics from the tower base to the remote radio head (RRH) atop the tower. Short RF cables connect the RRH to the antennas. Installation teams arrive on site and conduct line sweeps on the RF cable feeds and properly align the antennas based upon MoP specifications.

Why should new base stations be based on app-based processes?

Using app-based processes can save time and money when conducting this necessary and important step that helps ensure new base stations are installed within compliance of the Method of Procedure (MoP). Many new base stations utilize fiber optics from the tower base to the remote radio head (RRH) atop the tower.

What happens if a base station installation crew does not report?

Base station installation crews must create and submit documentation before the site goes live, so improper reporting will delay the site becoming operational. A Turf Vendor contracted to do the installation is not compensated until the reports are submitted and approved. Why are they so important?

Can a 5G base station be installed at ground level?

Many 5G base stations are being deployed at existing LTE sites. Each tower has a loading factor that defines the maximum weight of the radios and antennas that can be mounted. Due to legacy hardware on the tower, the radio may be required to be installed at ground level and only the antenna is tower mounted.
