Modular
– Standard sector antennas
stacked vertically
– Custom mounting frame
for easy and accurate
assembly
– Scalable to suit different
MHGA compared to standard antenna

environments
Radiation Performance
– High gain
– Improved link budget

Cell planning
– Use high gain antennas and avoid long feeder runs to
secure good coverage
– Keeping cells confined is the key to high cap networks
– Code planning, power planning, neighbour planning is
essential for a well working system
Use fallback to GSM to enhance the service coverage
– Terminate CS calls in GSM
Use HSDPA to provide high bit rate services and
enhance packet capacity
2nd carrier deployment can lead to enhanced coverage
and capacity
– Be sure to use 850 and 1900 MHz spectrum
