Block Diagram Details 

 

-

 

The UHF Amplifier module contains a (Low Noise Amplifier) LNA designed to detect a very weak 
signal. This stage is bypassed if the signal level at the input is higher than -20dBm  

 

-

 

The  LNA  is  followed  by  an  Automatic  Gain  Control  (AGC).  The  AGC  circuit  measures  composite 
power level at the VGA input and adjusts the gain automatically, in order to maintain a constant signal 
level at the VGA output delivered to the Power Amplifier (PA). Channel filters are inserted, in order to 
reject adjacent channel signals and to improve the signal quality.  
 

-

 

The  PA  provides  good  performance  for  both  linearity  and  efficiency.  This  amplifier  has  a  heat  sink 
mounted to it.  It has a high compression point and a high 3

rd

 order Intercept point.  

 

-

 

 The main AC input accepts 50/60 Hz with a 115 to 220 V AC power source. The Power Supply Unit 
(PSU) converts AC to DC voltages to supply DC power to the amplifiers, monitoring and control units.    
 

-

 

The unit does not have a built-in UPS/Battery system. In case of inconsistency in the AC line power, 
surge  protection,  short  blackouts,  high  crossover  time  from  the  line  AC  to  generator  power,  circuit 
breaker for short circuit and overload protection, etc., an external UPS/Battery system is recommended. 
 

-

 

The amplifier is intended to be used in a BDA system that includes two duplexers; one at the BTS port 
allowing the use for only one donor antenna for both UL and DL. The second duplexer is mounted at 
the Service DAS antenna port. These duplexers provide at least 100 dB isolation at each end between 
the two paths. 
 

-

 

A set of manual gain controls (MGC), ranging from 0 to 30 dB in 2 dB steps. Another set  ranging from 
0 to 15 dB in 1 dB steps are also added in the chain for additional attenuation if it is needed.
