The Cell Master cable and antenna analyzer uses Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) to help technicians and wirelessfield engineers detect cable, feedline and antenna system problems before they become costly, time-consuming systemfailures. Superior immunity to ambient RF levels, and excellent directivity and source match ensure accurate andrepeatable measurements.

FDR Technique

Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) and Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) have similar acronyms, and bothtechniques are used to test transmission lines. But, thats where the similarities end. TDRs are not sensitive to RF problemsthe TDR stimulus is a DC pulse, not RF. Thus, TDRs are unable to detect system faults that often lead to system failures.Additionally, FDR techniques save costly, time-consuming trouble shooting efforts by testing cable feedline and antennasystems at their proper operating frequency.

Deficient connectors, lightning arrestors, cables, jumpers or antennas are replaced before call quality is compromised.

Quick, Simple MeasurementsSite Master performs various RF measurements aimed at simplifying cable feedline and antenna system analysis: ReturnLoss, SWR, Cable Loss and Distance-to-Fault (DTF). A single softkey selection on the main menu activates the desiredmeasurement mode.

Distance-To-Fault pinpoints the location andreflection amplitude of transmission line components.

Distance-to-FaultAlthough a Return Loss test can show users the magnitude of signalreflections, it can not show the precise location of a fault withinthe cable and antenna system. Distance-To-Fault measurementsprovide the clearest indication of trouble areas as it shows boththe magnitude of the signal reflection and the location of thesignal anomaly.

Distance-To-Fault can easily identify connector transitions, jumpersand kinks in the cable and antenna system. Return Loss/SWRmeasurement data is processed using Fast Fourier Transform andthe resulting data indicates Return Loss/SWR versus distance.

Cable LossCable Loss measures the RF energy that is lost as heat and leakageas the signal travels down the cable. Insertion loss can be verifiedprior to deployment, when you have access to both ends of thecable, or on installed cables with access to the opposite end.

The MT8212B Cell Master automatically calculates and displaysthe average cable loss so theres no more guess work or need forcomplicated calculations in the field.

Return Loss, SWRReturn loss measures the signal energy that is reflected orreturned back to where it came from. VSWR (Voltage StandingWave Ratio) is another method to measure the reflections. ReturnLoss and SWR system measurements ensure conformance tosystem performance engineering specifications. Measurements caneasily be toggled between the two modes and can be performedwithout climbing the tower.

Spectrum Analysis Anywhere, AnytimeThe Cell Master MT8212B integrated spectrum analysis capability provides the ultimate in measurement flexibilityfor field environments and applications requiring mobility. With the MT8212B you can locate, identify, record andsolve communication systems problems quickly and easily, and with incredible accuracy making it a perfect solutionfor conducting field measurements in the 100 kHz to 3 GHz frequency range.

Smart Measurements

The Cell Master MT8212B has dedicated routines for smart measurements of field strength, channel power, occupiedbandwidth, Adjacent Channel Power Ratio (ACPR), Carrier-to-Interference and interference analysis. These areincreasingly critical measurements for todays wireless communication systems. The simple interface for these complexmeasurements significantly reduces test time and increases analyzer usability.

Adjacent Channel Power Ratio

A common transmitter measurement is that of adjacent channelleakage power. This is the ratio of the amount of leakage power inan adjacent channel to the total transmitted power in the mainchannel. This measurement is used to replace the traditionaltwo-tone intermodulation distortion (IMD) test for systemnon-linear behavior.

The result of an ACPR measurement can be expressed either asa power ratio or a power density. In order to calculate the upperand lower adjacent channel values, the Cell Master allows theadjustment of four parameters to meet specific measurementneeds: main channel center frequency, measurement channelbandwidth, adjacent channel bandwidth and channel spacing.When an air interface standard and channel are specified inthe MS8212B, all these values are automatically set to the normalvalues for that standard.

AM/FM DemodulatorA built-in demodulator for AM, narrowband FM, wideband FMand single sideband (selectable USB and LSB) allows easyidentificaton of interfering signals.

Occupied Bandwidth

This measurement calculates the bandwidth containing the totalintegrated power occupied in a given signal bandwidth. There aretwo different methods of calculation depending on the techniqueused to modulate the carrier. The user can specify percent of poweror the x dB down point, where x can be from 1 dB to 120 dBbelow the carrier.

Transmitter Performance Monitoring Made SimpGeneral purpose test equipment cannot measure all the important parameters of a wireless network. RF technicians andengineers need more sophisticated products to maintain and trouble shoot base stations. Bench top fully featuredlaboratory design, development and compliance instruments are expensive, big, bulky and very complicated to operate.RF technicians and engineers need an integrated, handheld, multi-function, battery operated and easy to use product tocheck base station performance.
