2. Why repeater 

2.1. 

Reason 1

 

1)  Blind or weak signal areas are formed if the buildings are too far away from BTS, or the buildings 

themselves shield or absorb the signals.   

2)  There are too many complicated signals in the higher part of the buildings, therefore ping-pong switching 

effect has been formed and the signals fluctuate a lot, there are annoying noises during phone calls and 

there are dropped phone calls accordingly. 

3)  Elevators and basements are well-known blind areas. 

4) 

Downtown areas of the cities, congested with many high-rise buildings are usually the weak or blind 

areas.

 

 

2.2. Reason 2 

The remote villages, mountains, hills, valleys, etc. are mostly scarcely populated areas with quite few mobile   

users, so the main target is to send coverage to these areas, and it will not be cost effect to install a BTS tower,   

therefore a booster is a quite good option. 

 

Can we not use mobile phones? The answer is definitely NO. But it might be much more miserable that the 

communication can’t be achieved due to no or weak signals though there is a mobile phone.       

 

Will your customers stay comfortable when there is no smooth communication in your shops or restaurants?   

 

Will your business be influenced if your clients couldn’t call you through due to weak signals in offices? 

 

Will your life be influenced if your mobile is always “out of service” at home when your friends call you?   

 

How to solve the problems?   

 

Best Solution:   

 

Plug & play: Purchase a set of booster solution and install it at your home, offices, and plug on the 

power and immediately you would be able to enjoy the full bar and high quality signals!
