Aligning the Antenna

Aligning the antennas is the most important activity in the HOP commissioning, and its result has a direct effect on the performance of the radio link. There are two

types of antenna Single-Polarized Antenna, dual-Polarized Antenna .

When you align the single-polarized antennas, you need to align the main lobe of the antenna signals by adjusting the azimuth angle and elevation angle of the

antennas at both ends.

When you align the dual-polarized antennas, you need to align the main lobe of the antenna signals by adjusting the azimuth angle and elevation angle of the

antennas at both ends. You also need to adjust the feed booms of the antennas
and ensure that the Cross-Polarization Discrimination (XPD) meets the specified requirements.

Aligning the Single-Polarized Antennas

Procedure
1.

According to the designed received signal level (RSL) along with the relationship curve between the VBNC and RSL described in the user documents (shipped with the equipment) of the ODU reference documents, read the designed value of the VBNC. Align the antennas at both ends approximately by using the specific tool (telescope) or instrument (COMPASS or GPS). If the antennas at both ends are not aligned approximately, the VBNC cannot be adjusted to the designed value. Fix the antenna at the opposite end, and adjust the azimuth (elevation) of the antenna at the local end in a wide range. Use the multi-meter to observe the VBNC value of the ODU at the local end. At least three peak signals should be detected and the voltage of the peak signal in the middle should be maximum. When the VBNC reaches the maximum value, tighten the antenna. When the antenna is being tightened, keep that the VBNC is always the maximum.

4. As step 3, adjust the elevation (azimuth) of the antenna. And tighten it. 5. Tighten the antennas at the local end. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to adjust the antennas at the opposite end and tighten them. 6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 for two to four times. When the RSL of the antennas at the local end and the remote end reach the maximum value, tighten the antennas at both ends. 7. Test VBNC of ODUs at both ends by multi-meter. Read the actual receive power level (RSL) by referring to the relationship curve between the VBNC and RSL for the ODUs at both ends. The difference between actual RSL value and its designed value should be ranged from -3 dB to +3 dB. 8. If the VBNC does not meet the above requirements, check whether the antennas at both ends are approximately aligned by referring to the step2. Also you can refer to the OptiX RTN 600 Radio Transmission System Maintenance Guide for solutions. 9. After antennas aligning is complete, tighten all screws of the antennas.

Testing N+1 Protection Switching (cont.)

Procedure

Connect the BER tester to an E1 port of the equipment on the local side. On the equipment on the opposite side, perform hardware inloop over the E1 port. If the hardware inloop fails, perform software inloop over the E1 port by using the Web LCT. Test the BER by using the BER tester. There should be no bit errors.

Check the working status of the board by using the Web LCT.

Select an NE from the Object Tree in the NE Explorer. Choose Configuration > Link Configuration from the Function Tree. Select the N+1 Protection tab page, and click Query. The Switching Status of the working unit and the protection unit should be Normal.

Power off the ODU through the power switch on the active IF board that transmits E1 services data.

Testing N+1 Protection Switching (cont.)

Check the BER test result. The service should recover immediately after a transient interruption.

After the switching is complete, perform BER test for 5 to 10 minutes. There should be no bit errors.
Power on the ODU through the switch on the active IF board. Test the BER again by using the BER tester. When the WTR time expires, the service should recover immediately after a transient interruption. WTR Time is set to 600s by default. Test the BER depending on the actual configuration. Release the loopback set in 2. Refer to 1 through 10 to test the N+1 protection switching of the equipment on the opposite side.
