DRAFT
Six–sector BTS – Six–sector operation is only supported in OEM
multicarrier frames. For a six–sector BTS, up to two carriers can be
supported with a minmum of two PA sets: six PA modules for a 3x3
system and eight PA modules for a 4x4 system. If additional power is
required, two additional PA sets can be added for the maximum available
capacity. (Refer to Figure 1-22).
Equipment Configurations
The various components of the PA cages may be configured differently
depending upon customer requirements. Table 1-5 provides BTS
carrier/sector/BBX mapping, TX Filter requirements, and PA quantities
and configurations needed to provide the required BTS output power for
all carriers. Figure 1-16 illustrates which BBXs are used for omni and
two–sector operation. Figure 1-20, Figure 1-21, and Figure 1-22
illustrate the minimum and maximum power PA configurations for
omni, two–, and three–sector OEM and converted multicarrier frames
and for six–sector OEM multicarrier frames, respectively.
