4G LTE Network 
Extender Information 

Displays the Network Extender’s cell network identifier information: Network ID, CELL 
ID, Physical CELL ID (PCI) and LTE EARFCN. Network ID (PLMN) and Cell ID (ECGI) are 
linked by a hyphen. 

 

Transmit Power 
 

The transmit power of the Network Extender can be adjusted using the slider 
according to requirements, from maximum (100% = 100mW = 20dBm) to minimum 
(10% = 10mW = 10dBm). Digital attenuation in 1mW steps from 10mW to 100mW is 
used to achieve this. 

 

Neighboring Cells 
Detected  

 

Displays OTAR results. Can assist a multi-4G LTE Network Extender cluster with 
positioning and power selection. 
•

 

Network ID: PLMN of the detected cell. 

•

 

EARFCN: This is the EARFCN of the detected cell. 

•

 

Cell ID: ECGI of the detected cell. 

•

 

PCI: PCI of the detected cell. 

•

 

Cell Type: Displays the result based on OTAR scan if the Cell Tower ID is within range 
reserved for the 4G LTE Network Extender(s). Otherwise, displays “Macro”. 

•

 

RSRP: Displays the measured RSRP in dBm of the detected cell. An icon is provided 
alongside the RSRP value indicating if the detected cell is too-close (high RSRP) and 
may be causing interference; or if it is too far (low RSRP) and handover may be an 
issue. Note – the distance between two 4G LTE Network Extenders using the same 
band should be at least 170% of the distance of its coverage radius to avoid LTE 
interference. In other words, if an LTE Network Extender has a 100 ft. coverage 
radius in a given environment, the next closest LTE Network Extender using the 
same band should be at least 170ft away. If two LTE Network Extenders are using 
different bands from each other, they can be placed side-by-side. Besides, if the 
neighboring cell reported from UE will be denoted by ‘ANR Cell’ and provisioned 
from HeMS will be denoted by “HeMS Cell”. These two kinds neighboring cell will 
not display the RSRP value.
