2 Design principle
In the system designs for GSM1800 combined network, the output power of the
indoor Omni antenna for the GSM1800 is from 15dBm to 10dBm. And the coverage
distance is about 20 to 15m, which depends on the indoor structure.
GrenTech link budget for the antennas coverage distance is shown as bellows:
1The in-building aerial transmission loss is calculated as follows:
Ld=32.4+20lgDKm+20lgFMHz
In the above formula, D means the distance from the antenna to the mobile
stationKm
F means the carrier frequencyMHz
2The total path loss is as follows: L=Ls+LdLr
In the above formula, Ls means the loss led by the internal obstruction.
Lr means the loss led by the internal estimate.
3The minimum in-building coverage field strength is: Emin=P-L
In the above formula, P means the antenna output power
4The aerial transmission loss of different distance is as follows:

GSM1800 Indoor Coverage Solution

As to the GSM1800 system:

PL(dB) =32.45+20lg(1800)+20lgd(km)= 97.5+20lgd(km)

For In-building signal, GrenTech experienced Formula is as follow:

L=LD+10LgD (m) + FAF
Here, the FAF means the loss led by the internal obstruction; the experienced value
is as follow

1800MHz
68dB
810dB
1416dB
20-25dB
35-40dB

Supposed
The output power of the antennas for GSM1800 P0=10dBm
The gain of omni antenna G0=3dBi, the FAF of the wall is about 20dB,
L (20m) =63+10lgD (m) +FAF
=63+13+20=96
So the RSSI=P0+G0-L=10+3-96=-83 (dBm)
So the design of the 1800 system can satisfy the systems requirements.

3 Signal Leakage Analysis

Indoor signal leakage is mainly caused by the antenna signal leakage in the low
building, if the building is taller, the route loss will be larger, if the lower building
antenna can meet the level leakage index, and then the high building antenna can
also meet the level leakage index. The antenna to cover the elevator can be installed
in the elevator shaft, as the walls of the elevator shift will absorb the signal, and there
will be very little leakage in this area, a sample will be taken from the ceiling mounted
antenna installed on the first floor to analyze the leakage of the signal.
The Lower Floors leakage Analysis (Ground Floor)

Now we count the signal field intensity in the distance of 20M (leakage outside 10M
away)

GSM1800 Indoor Coverage Solution

Work out the deviation of path loss between D1 and D2 according to the path loss
Formula:
LD1- D2 =20log20/10=6.0dB
The result from above analysis adds glasses loss of windows 6dB, so the path loss is
12dB from the edge field to outside 10M away.
Even though the signal of GSM close the edge of windows can reach to
-80.0dBm,and the signal field intensity of leakage outside 10M away is under
-92.0dBm,it can satisfy the level requirement(-90.0dBm).

C/I 9dBwith hopping frequency
(2) Adjacent channel interference protection ratio:
200 KHz adjacent channel interference protection ratioC/I -6dB
400 KHz Adjacent channel interference protection ratio: C/I -38dB

GSM1800 Indoor Coverage Solution

1.4

The accessibility ratio in the wireless coverage area: 95% of the locations in the
coverage can be accessed to the mobile station at the 99% time.

1.5

GSM wireless coverage field strength: indoor-75dBm, elevator-85dBm,

outdoor -90dBm, and signal leaked on the external road -90dBm.

1.6

The uplink noise level received in the BTS receiving end-120dBm.

1.7

There is good and continuous handover between the coverage area and the
surrounding areas.

1.8

The voice quality score of the indoor coverage system is above 96. The score
is calculated by the weighted averages method :( level 0level 1level 2) 1
level 3level 40.8level 5level 60.5level 70.2. Here level
0 means the sample points with the voice quality 0 covers the total sample
points. The level 1 and Level 2 is deduced by analogy.
