Features and Benefits
DualPol® Dual Band Antennas

Andrew offers a wide selection of DualPol® dual band antennas, each providing an ideal solution
for applications where antenna consolidation with optimal coverage is desired. Each model is
packaged in an attractive, low-wind load radome for ease in obtaining zoning approvals.
The Andrew portfolio of DualPol dual band antennas includes:
d DBXLH series models housing two DualPol antennas under one radome
d T BXLH series models housing one DualPol dual band antenna and one
DualPol single band antenna under one radome
d QBXLH series models housing two DualPol dual band antennas under one radome
Each series of antennas features models independently capable of field adjustable electrical
downtilt and fully compatible with Andrew’s Teletilt® RET system.
DualPol® Dual Band Antennas with an Internal Cross Band Coupler

The DBXGKC series antenna combines high performance technologies from the DBXLH series of
dual band antennas with an internal cross band coupler, making it possible to operate with both
GSM900 and GSM1800 signals over a shared feeder. Unlike the standard dual band antenna,
which has four input connectors (two for low band and two for high band), the DBXGKC series
antenna uses only two connectors.
Vertically Polarized Dual Band Antennas

Andrew offers an assortment of vertically polarized dual band antennas in the 74x and 77x series
with differing beamtilt options, such as:
d Fixed tilt on both frequency bands
d Fixed tilt on the high band combined with field adjustable electrical downtilt on the low band
( DBXLH and DBXTH Series
d Field adjustable electrical downtilt on both frequency bands
These antennas are designed to:
d Allow operators to match existing coverage, minimizing risks when new bands are overlaid
d Provide simple integration of TMA systems to improve uplink coverage
d Significantly reduce costs in deployment and operations

Ground Plane Antennas

DB201 series ground plane omni antennas feature a moisture resistant epoxy insulator to guard
against condensation and corrosion in the 50 ohm feed-through connector. The lead is protected
with a field replaceable, weatherproofed male-to-female connector. These antennas are constructed
of all metal and all elements operate at dc ground to protect against damage from lightning. The
antennas are cut to frequency and factory tested for minimum VSWR. Optional uncut models are
available with cutting charts.
The ASP 7A light duty quarter-wave ground plane antenna, constructed of chrome-painted brass
radiators and stainless steel radials, provides long lasting, dependable performance for all general
purpose applications. This antenna easily mounts in minutes on a mast up to 1.25 in (31.8 mm) OD,
and is an ideal choice for economical installations.
Exposed Dipole Quasi-Omni Antennas

Andrew’s exposed dipole quasi-omni antennas feature flexibility for pattern shaping. By aligning the
antenna dipoles collinearly, an offset pattern is produced offering a higher gain. Or, by positioning the
( DB201
dipoles evenly every 90° on opposite sides of the mast, a circular pattern is produced offering omni
coverage. Each model is designed with a center splice to assure proper alignment, and can easily be
field adjusted with ordinary hand tools to produce the desired pattern performance.
Other unique characteristics include:

d DB222, DB224, DB228, and DB264 antennas perform efficiently in both transmit and receive,
and most models are capable of operating in either single or multi-frequency systems. Dual dipole
models (DB404, DB408, DB411, DB413, and DB420) are especially suitable for duplex operation.
d Each antenna is easy to install with optional side mounts available. Order DB5001 for side
mounting standard folded dipole antennas, and order DB5007 for dual folded dipole antennas.
d DB264 models are designed with the cable harness enclosed in the metal mast, and the mast and
radiating elements are vented to prevent moisture accumulation.
d Dual folded dipoles are extremely rugged to resist winds up to 125 mph (201 km/h).
d Radiators operate at dc ground and each aluminum mast has a pointed cap that provides a low
resistance discharge path to the tower or ground system.

30–512 MHz
Fiberglass Omni Antennas

Andrew’s fiberglass omni antennas feature rugged fiberglass radomes to protect the radiating
elements from harsh weather environments.
d T he radome on DB616 and DB640NS is made of .25 in thick Aeroglass fiberglass; a material
known for its use in helicopter rotor blades and racing sailboat masts, as well as Olympic
vaulters’ poles. The ASP omni antennas have an extra heavy radome made of Armorweave
fiberglass. The DB63x antenna radomes are made of MTD (minimum tip deflection) fiberglass.
Each model is designed to withstand hostile winds.
d DB616 models are engineered to last by using all metal in the radiators and either copper or
brass are used in the feed and matching systems to minimize galvanic reaction and reduce
intermodulation. These antennas are weather resistant with a gold iridated support pipe made
of 6061-T6 aluminum alloys.
d Moisture resistant bulkhead connector on the bottom cap, as well as drain plugs in both the top
and bottom for upright or inverted mounting provide protection against corrosion.
d Each antenna easily installs with a no-torsion mount and includes a dc ground.
Directional Antennas
Select from Andrew’s DB252 and DB254 series para-corner reflectors, DB436 yagi, and DB654 and
DB674 panel antennas for directional gain advantages. The para-corner reflector and yagi models
both offer great front-to-back ratios. The panel antennas provide exceptional gain with 1.4:1 or ( ASP685 ( DB640NS-C
better VSWR with DualPol® performance in the DB654 model.
Additional features include:

d DB254 antennas can be stacked and mounted to face in opposite directions to provide a
bi-directional pattern with 7 dBd gain in both directions. Coverage can be broadened, with reduced
gain, by fanning the antennas apart. These antennas use electrically flat reflector screens that
perform like a parabolic plane with an element that is a center-fed dipole.
d DB436 antennas can be mounted side-by-side or vertically stacked to provide either vertical or
horizontal polarization. One wavelength of vertical separation is recommended. The antennas can
be mounted on opposite sides of the tower to produce a bi-directional pattern, if desired.
d DB254 and DB436 are made of high strength aluminum alloys with stainless steel mounting
brackets and galvanized or stainless steel hardware used for installing the DB254 antennas. The ( DB252
moisture resistant design of the DB254 antenna assures maximum weather protection.
d DB654 and DB674 antennas feature a sturdy construction with a passivated aluminum back
panel, alodine finish aluminum radiating elements, and a high impact UV and weather resis-
tant ABS plastic radome. These antennas are each tested for power rating compliance and the
absence of intermodulation generators.

Antenna System
Teletilt® Remote Electrical Downtilt System
Andrew Corporation has been the world leader in engineering and deploying thousands of variable
electrical downtilt base station antennas for over 10 years. The technology that began as an innova-
tive design known as VARI-TILT®, manual field adjustable electrical downtilt, has now evolved into a
remote controlled variable electrical downtilt base station antenna system, or Teletilt®.
Teletilt® Remote Electrical Downtilt Antenna System

The Andrew Teletilt antenna control system allows network optimization that improves coverage,
lowers costs, increases revenue, and increases customer satisfaction with better call quality. Now
service providers can make antenna adjustments remotely in just minutes – without site downtime
or costly tower crews.
What is Teletilt®?

Teletilt® ATM200-002 Actuator
The AISG compliant ATM200-002 engages the antenna downtilt rod for remote electrical tilt as it
receives tilt commands from the Andrew Teletilt® ATC200 controller. The controller also configures
the actuator to store sector position, height, angular tilt, etc.
The actuator’s absolute position sensor eliminates calibration, enhances precision and prevents
dropped calls caused by calibration sweeps.
The single piece housing eliminates mechanical joints (screws, welds, etc.) that could become loose
over time with normal antenna vibration.
The actuator has been extensively tested and is certified to contain EMI/EMC emissions, including
operation near 50/60 Hz power lines.
Male and female AISG connectors facilitate daisy chaining actuators.
This unit comes in a weather resistant gasket-sealed container that has a drain hole to permit
drainage of condensed moisture. It weighs less than 0.3 kg and can operate over a –40 degrees C
to +70 degrees C temperature range.
The ATM200-002 actuator can be field fitted onto Andrew Teletilt remote electrical downtilt (RET)
compatible antennas that are already in service or factory fitted before delivery to the field.
With an excess of 150,000 actuators in service, Andrew’s ATM200-002 is a proven, reliable RET solution.

Teletilt® ATC200-LITE-USB Portable Controller
The ATC200-LITE-USB controller serves as an interface between a local PC and remote electrical
downtilt (RET) devices installed at a base station site. This unit can manage up to 32 RET devices,
independently, with the use of multiple junction boxes. Both a USB and an RS-232 serial cable
are included with this unit. With these options, the ATC200-LITE-USB controller can connect directly
to a local PC through its USB or COM port (where a USB port is not available) for local access and
operations.
The controller’s LEDs, on the front panel of the controller, signal power and data communication is
present. The power LEDs, located nearest to the dc IN port, indicate power is supplied from the
controller to the RET system. The data LED, located nearest to the RS-232 serial port, indicates data
is traveling between the controller and the RET devices. This unit is designed for portable use.
( ATC200-LITE-USB
Converts RS-232 signal from PC to the RS-485 signal that controls the tilt commands in a remote control actuator.

Teletilt® ATCB-B01-xxx Series Control Cable
The ATCB-B01 series control cabling is used to feed data and power from the controller to the
ATC200 RET (remote electrical downtilt) system components. These cables are available in various
lengths ranging from 0.50 m to 60 m. Each cable is terminated with male and female connectors,
which allows them to be linked together to meet a required length.
Andrew recommends grounding the RET control cable at the top of the tower, using the ATJB200
series junction box. An ATLP200-001 lightning protection unit should be used at the bottom of the
tower to ground the RET control cable. In addition, Andrew recommends using an ATGK-001 ground-
ing kit for runs over 60 m and at 60 m intervals. This grounding kit clamps onto the connectors,
where 2 cables are joined together. As an example, the ATGK-001 would be used where a 40 m and
a 30 m RET cable are joined to make a 70 m run.
The ATCB-B01 series control cabling is compliant to AISG and RoHS standards.

Notes:
1. The main control cable, feeding to the tower structure, should be secured at 2 m intervals and 1 m from either end using cable
ties (Andrew 40417), hangers (Andrew 68MCLICK), or similar fasteners. Control cabling feeding between junction boxes and
actuators should be secured every 0.5 m to avoid excessive wind vibration.
2. Connectors should only be hand tightened. Overtightening can shear pins off internal components of equipment.
3. Connectors do not require waterproofing.
4. Maximum distance from control unit to farthest AISG component in a RET system should not exceed 200 m.

Teletilt® ATGK-001 Grounding Kit
The Andrew AISG control cables for remote electrical tilt are rated for 16kA surge capacity, 10/350
µs profile. As part of a system, Teletilt® cabling requires grounding and line protection at the top and
( ATGK-001 bottom of the tower through the use of an ATLP200-001 lightning protection unit or ATJB200-A01
series junction box. Andrew Corporation also recommends the use of the ATGK-001 grounding kit for
every 60 m of AISG RET control cable run.
The ATGK-001 grounding kit is designed to capture and ground the cables at the junction where
two cables are daisy-chained. This means that for a 120 m run, you will use two 60 m cables
(ATCB-B01-060) with the ATGK-001 grounding kit in the middle. The kit includes a clamp module,
a ground cable, and hardware for connection to the main ground bus.

location over an Internet connection to manage and supervise activities for RET (remote electrical tilt)
systems globally within a network.
Real-time scheduled adjustments can be made to base station antenna electrical beam tilts and
other AISG compliant RET equipment over a secure private VPN link. Connections and transactions
are logged between end users and each BTS resident ATC200-1000 Teletilt® controller to easily
supervise activities.
Establishing ANMS Access Is Easy

d T he ANMS program communicates through either a customer supported Ethernet connection,
located at the BTS, or a wireless supported connection provided by Andrew Corporation.
d A secure Internet VPN link is directed through the Teletilt ATC200-1000 controller (installed at the
BTS) to the OMC (Operational Maintenance Center), where an administrator at the OMC facilitates
initial setup rights to the end user (Client).
d T he OMC administrator sends access privileges out to the Client over a secure private VPN link to
anywhere an Internet connection has been established.
d Once the hierarchy of the end users has been established through the administrator, the Client
is able to make or schedule adjustments to the electrical downtilt of an antenna from any LAN
connection, at any time.
d S ecure connections
d S cheduled adjustments
d L ogged activities
Easily manage sites remotely over an Internet connection.

AcCELLerator™ Factory Assembled Antenna System Highlights
Custom Two or Three-Sector Coverage in One Enclosure

Our AcCELLerator™ packages can accommodate up to six 800/900 MHz DualPol® antennas, which
can be oriented at 180°, 120°, or at customized azimuth settings inside a single, aesthetically
pleasing enclosure.
Custom Tailored for Your Application

Mix and match beamwidths, electrical downtilts, and polarization options to meet your exact needs.
Faster Zoning Approval

Having no visible cables or individual antennas makes zoning approval simple. The AcCELLerator
series antenna systems can be mounted on unobtrusive monopoles or existing structures such as
rooftops, utility poles and billboards.
Lower Infrastructure Cost

Fewer antennas means reduced windloads, faster site installations and decreased costs in leases.
Additionally, lighter-duty towers may be installed and antenna platforms are no longer necessary.
AcCELLerator antenna systems can also be roof-mounted with no additional screening required.
Fully Tested and Ready for Installation

The AcCELLerator antenna system is a fully tested suite of antennas in one package. Just hook up
the RF cables, attach the antenna system to the mounting structure, and the site is online.
Jumper Cables Included

Each AcCELLerator antenna system comes ready to install with factory attached and weatherproofed,
high quality, .5 inch diameter flexible jumper cables.
Easy Access to Individual Antennas

Most Andrew AcCELLerator antenna systems allow for easy access to the antennas for customer
adjustments or antenna replacement. See individual data sheet for customer interface to the antenna.
Designed for Co-Location

Most Andrew AcCELLerator antenna systems can be stacked two high for added capacity or
co-location.

Basic Antenna Types Used in Cellular Style Systems
There are two basic types of base station antennas used in Cellular style systems: Omni-directional
(Omni) antennas and Directional or Sector Antennas.
Omni antennas are generally used for low capacity sites where sectorization is not required. Typical
examples are more rurally located sites.
Most sites in urban and suburban areas use sectorized antennas to achieve higher capacity. To date,
the most popular option is a 3-sector (120˚) solution, but 6-sector solutions are used where capacity
issues are severe.
Diversity/Air Combining
For many rural and suburban sites, diversity is accomplished using spatial diversity. To achieve
spatial diversity, two uplink antennas per sector are placed far enough apart so that the signals they
receive are uncorrelated.
High Density Cell Configuration Using Diversity Polarization for Diversity Gain
The use of a single antenna containing two arrays at orthogonal polarizations (H/V or +/-45˚) is
useful in dense urban areas with high multipath. Some studies note that in urban areas with high
multipath, polarization diversity gain results can outperform spatial diversity. The use of a quad or
four port +/-45˚ antenna can provide for air combining, which is useful in avoiding additional
transmit combiner losses when overlaying additional frequency.
Cell Reuse
The principles behind the cellular concept employ the reuse of frequencies over and over again
throughout the network to gain capacity. Typically cells are represented as hexagons (Fig. A), which
shows a reuse pattern of N=7.
Depending on the capacity requirement, these cells can have diameters measured either in miles or
in hundreds of feet. Since given frequencies are reused throughout the system, the channel sensitiv-
ity becomes interference limited rather than noise limited like older non-cellular systems. Therefore
it can be seen that specialized pattern shaping, both azimuth and elevation, can go a long way
toward optimizing coverage inside the desired sector and minimizing interference from and into
undesired sectors/cells.

Antenna Fundamentals
One of the most critical elements of a wireless communications system is the antenna. A Probe
base station antenna represents only a small part of the overall cost of a communications Antenna
site, but its performance impact is enormous. Its function is to transform conduction currents Antenna
Under Test
(found on wires, coaxial cable, and wave-guides) into displacement currents – it’s this invisible
phenomenon that makes radio communications possible. The antenna’s impact on the radio
system is determined by choosing the antenna with the appropriate characteristics defined by
its specifications.
The following information describes and defines the most common parameters used to specify
base station antennas.
Radiation Pattern
The most important requirement is describing where an antenna radiates energy into the space
around it. A radiation pattern is a graphical representation of where and how much energy is
radiated. Every antenna should come with such a representation.
The radiation characteristics of an antenna are determined by moving a simple probe antenna,
which is connected to a radio receiver, around the antenna at a constant distance, noting the
received signal level as a function of angular coordinates. For a complete 3-dimensional ( Figure 1. Measuring Radiation Patterns
characterization, the probe antenna would be moved over a spherical surface. See figure 1.
A typical far-field range setup is shown in figure 2 where D is the maximum dimension of the
Antenna Under Test.

The coordinate system used for defining antenna radiation

patterns is the spherical coordinate system shown in figure 3,
while that used by surveyors and RF engineers is the altazimuth
coordinate system shown in figure 4. Pattern data supplied by
Andrew Corporation is in the form that is defined by the altazimuth
coordinate system.
Most antennas are physically symmetrical about the x-y and x-z
planes, which means the antenna’s radiation characteristics are
aptly described by only two radiation patterns. These principle
plane patterns are the horizontal (azimuth) radiation pattern and
the vertical (elevation) radiation pattern. To measure the horizontal
pattern, the probe moves in the x-y plane ( = 90˚ and  varies).
To measure the vertical pattern, the probe moves in the x-z plane
( = 0˚ and  varies).
The radiation pattern can be graphically represented in two ways.
One is by a rectangular plot, where angular position is defined by
the x-axis and signal level by the y-axis. The second is a polar plot,
where angular position is equivalent to the angular position on a
circle – relative to a reference radial – and signal level is plotted
( Figure 3. Spherical Coordinate System relative to the center of the circle at a distance proportional to the
signal level.
The signal level can be plotted as a function of linear voltage or
linear power. In this case, the center of the polar plot is zero. If the
levels are absolute values, the outside value of the polar plot is
greater than one; for relative plots, the outside value is one. The
pattern can also be plotted as a function of absolute logarithmic
power level. In this case, the outside value of the polar plot is zero,
and the center is not zero.
Examples of rectangular and polar plots using the altazimuth
coordinate system are shown for an isotropic radiator and
a half-wave dipole in figures 5 – 8 (see following page). Figure
5 shows the absolute voltage elevation patterns where the peak
value for the isotropic radiator is 1.00 and the dipole is 1.28.
Figure 6 shows the absolute power elevation patterns where the
peak value for the isotropic radiator is 1.00 and the dipole is
1.64 = 1.282. Figure 7 shows the absolute power elevation
patterns in dBi where the peak value for the isotropic radiator is
0.00 dBi = 10 log10 (1.00) and the dipole is 2.15 dBi = 10 log10
(1.64). Figure 8 shows the relative power elevation patterns in
dB where the peak value for both is 0.00 dB. Andrew uses the
polar plot format, shown in figure 8, for all Decibel® base station
( Figure 4. Altazimuth Coordinate System antennas.

Antenna Gain
Perhaps the second most important parameter in selecting a base station antenna is gain. Gain is
proportional to the product of directivity and the antenna’s efficiency. Directivity is a measure of how
an antenna focuses energy, while the antenna’s efficiency accounts for losses associated with the
antenna.
G=eD
G (dBi) = 10 log 10 (e D)
where G = antenna gain relative to an isotropic radiator

e = antenna efficiency
D = antenna directivity relative to an isotropic radiator
G (dBi) = D (dBi) – L (dB)
where L = losses due to resistance of conductors, dielectrics,

impedance mismatch, polarization
Gain is always referenced to an isotropic radiator, i.e., a device that radiates energy in all directions
equally. The unit of measure is the dBi. Gain also may be referenced to a half-wave dipole, where
the unit of measure is dBd. The gain of a dipole is 2.15 dBi or 0.00 dBd.
Figure G compares the gain of a given antenna rated in dBi (dB with respect to an isotropic radiator)
to the same antenna rated in dBd (dB WRT a 1/2 wave dipole).
Gain is a function of the frequency, as shown:
Isotropic Pattern (0 dBi) Isotropic (dBi)
Dipole (dBd) 4
Dipole Pattern G = –––– A e
Gain 2

Ae = effective aperture area, m2

 = ––
f
where c = speed of light, m/sec
0 (dBd) = 2.15 (dBi) 3 (dBd) = 5.15 (dBi)
f = frequency, Hz
( Figure G. As aperture size increases, gain increases. For wireless sector and omni antennas, aperture size is
mainly determined by the antenna’s length. In general, gain doubles (3 dB increase) when the
antenna length doubles. Practically, as length increases so do the losses, and a length will be
reached where any increase in size will not give any substantial increase in gain, due to a matching
increase in loss.

Half Power Beamwidth

Half power beamwidth (HPBW) is a parameter that measures the shape of the radiation pattern. It is
the angular width of the radiation pattern’s main lobe. It is measured between the points where the
power pattern is one-half (3 dB down) the main lobe’s peak value. HPBW is usually specified for the
horizontal and vertical radiation patterns. The exception to this is the horizontal pattern of an omnidi-
rectional antenna that is circular.
Directivity can be estimated from the two principal plane HPBWs by using:
For sector antennas (1):
41250
D (dBi) = 10*log 10 –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
(0.53*HBW3dB +0.25*HBW10dB +18)*VBW3dB
For omnidirectional antennas (2):
D ≈ 191.0 √0.818 + 1/ V – 172.4
where H = horizontal pattern half power beamwidth, degrees

V = vertical pattern half power beamwidth, degrees
These formulas show that directivity increases as HPBW decreases.
An assumption needs to be made concerning the efficiency or the losses associated with an antenna
to determine the gain. These formulas can then be used to ensure the appropriate gain has been
chosen for specified horizontal and vertical HPBWs.

The front-to-back ratio is the ratio of the maximum directivity of an

140 40 system) to its directivity in a rearward direction antenna (usually at

220 320 and below the main lobe. These are termed side lobes. Between

Polarization
The polarization of an antenna is a property of the radio wave that is produced by the antenna.
u2
Polarization describes how the radio wave (displacement current, electric field vector) varies in space E 2m
E
with time. This is an important concept because for a radio wave transmitted with a given polariza-
tion to be received by another antenna, the receive antenna must be able to receive this polarization
u1
and be oriented to do so. At a given point in space, the general shape traced by the electric field
E 1m
vector is an ellipse, shown in figure 11.
The instantaneous value of the wave (blue arrows) can be written as:
E(t)=E 1m cos(  t) u 1 + E 2m cos(  t + ) u 2
Where  is the phase by which the u2-component leads the u1-component. ( Figure 11. General Polarization Ellipse
A summary of basic polarization types and necessary component values is shown in the table below.
Polarization E 1m E 2m 
Vertical 0 1 0˚
Horizontal 1 0 0˚
Slant Right 45° 1/√2 1/√2 0˚
Slant Left 45° 1/√2 1/√2 180˚
Right Hand Circular 1/√2 1/√2 -90˚
Left Hand Circular 1/√2 1/√2 90˚
Figure 12 illustrates these basic polarization types. Polarizations are said to be orthogonal if any
arbitrary polarization can be expressed as a combination of the two orthogonal polarizations. The
most common two orthogonal polarizations are vertical and horizontal. All practical antennas are
composed of two orthogonal components. The cross-polarized response is the power received by the
polarization orthogonal to the desired polarization (copolarization) in a specified plane.

Downtilt input power be reduced but the main lobe can be tilted below the
Back Lobe Peak Horizontal
Pattern (Disc) horizon, i.e., maximum radiation does not occur in the direction of
the horizon. The simplest way to achieve this is to mechanically tilt
the antenna. The antenna can also be designed so that the main
Main Lobe Peak lobe does not point toward the horizon. This is achieved by electri-
cal techniques associated with the antenna’s feed network and is
termed electrical downtilt.
Axis of Rotation When an antenna is mechanically tilted, its radiation characteristics
do not change. However, the coverage on the ground is affected.
This can best be explained by using figure 13. Imagine that the
horizontal pattern is a disc that is rotated about an axis that lies

VSWR and Return Loss

VSWR and return loss (RL) are measures of how much energy is reflected from an antenna’s input.
The amount of energy reflected by the antenna depends on the antenna’s input impedance. The
input impedance of an antenna consists of two parts, the self-impedance and the mutual imped-
ance. The self-impedance is that impedance determined by the antenna on its own. The mutual
impedance is determined by the antenna’s surroundings, i.e., energy radiated by the antenna that is
reflected back into the antenna from surrounding objects. The relationships between an antenna’s
input impedance, Z, and its VSWR and RL, , are:
Z – Z0 1 + ||
 = ––––––– VSWR = –––––––
Z + Z0 1 – ||
VSWR – 1
R.L. = 20 log 10 () = 20 log 10 ( –––––––––––– )
VSWR + 1
where 
= reflection coefficient
Z = antenna’s input impedance
Z0 = characteristic impedance of system
VSWR or return loss is only one component of an antenna. The table below shows how VSWR can
increase (RL will decrease) without significantly increasing the antenna’s overall loss, i.e., decreasing
the antenna’s gain.

Often system VSWR (or return loss) readings are measured near the base station equipment at the
base of the tower. These readings will be influenced by all the various components in the RF path.
The estimated system VSWR calculator shown in figure 17 mathematically calculates the theoretical
RMS value expected for the combination of the components specified. Please visit www.andrew.com

Intermodulation
A characteristic of passive devices used in radio systems that is becoming increasingly important is
intermodulation distortion (IMD). Nonlinearities within these passive devices cause the appearance of
unwanted frequencies equal to the integral multiples and sums and differences of integral multiples
of the unwanted frequencies. The simplest scenario is when two carriers at frequency f1 and f2 are
fed into an antenna. If a nonlinearity is present, then the following frequencies are generated:
f IMD = n f 1 ± m f 2
where fIMD = frequency generated by nonlinearity

n = 0, 1, 2 . . . .
m = 0, 1, 2 . . . .
when n or m = 0, then fIMD is a harmonic

n and m ≠ 0, n + m is the order of the fIMD
For passive devices, the fIMD that contain the most amount of energy are the third order products,
2 f1 – f2 and 2 f2 + f1. Although these products do not often cause problems, they are the easiest to
measure and usually specified. Figure 17 is a graphical representation of the 2-carrier IMD situation.
In passive devices, significant intermodulation is usually caused by ferromagnetic components in the
RF path and poor connections between metal parts. The presence of significant intermodulation can
be mitigated by a combination of good design and good construction practices.

Power Rating
The input power to the antenna terminals verify that the antenna can safely handle and deliver its
rated performance. Generally, it is limited to the power handling capacity of the feed line. Many digi-
tal systems will include both average power and peak power requirements.

(1) P ower ratings are based on EIA standard Rs-100 for a maximum inner conductor temperature of 100 ˚C at 40 ˚C ambient.
Ratings should be divided by VSWR as measured at the input to the transmission line to account for hot spots.
(2) Low density foam dielectric, copper conductors.
(3) Air dielectric, copper conductors.
Side-Mounted Omnidirectional Antennas at 450 MHz and 800 MHz

At these frequencies standard towers have dimensions of several wavelengths and therefore
become complicated reflectors. It is preferable at these frequencies when side-mounting an
omnidirectional antenna, to mount off the leg of the tower, rather than the face, and at a distance
as far as practical. However, if the desired coverage area does not have to be circular, mounting
the antenna at one quarter to five quarter wavelengths is often acceptable. Pattern nulls of 10 to
15 dB can usually be tolerated in areas where communication is not needed.
