Figure 7 - Isolation between Donor & Coverage Side
Figures 1-,t show test results after sweeping the donor antenna
line. As seen in figure 1, the return loss stays below -15 dB in the
800-875 MHz range. Figures 4-6 show the test results after sweeping
the line to the coverage antennas. In a similar fashion, the return loss
is under -15 dB between 800-875 MHz. The return loss on the donor
antenna tapers up outside the 800-875 MHz range, meaning that the
donor antenna isn't tuned for 700 MHz and First Net signals.
The blue (IS21) trace shown in Figure 7 shows the isolation
between the donor antenna and the coverage antennas is around -90
dB between 775-875 MHz. This much isolation will allow for a higher
gain BDA to further increase the signal strength in the building.

Figure 13 - Basement Gym Signal Strength
Figure 14 - Basement Middle Hallway Signal Strength
Figure 15 .- Basement Firing Range Signal Strength
After sweeping the donor and coverage lines in the MDF, a 0
dBm 850 MHz duimmy signal was injected into the line feeding the
passive network of coverage antennas. Figures 8-15 show the signal
strength received by a spectrum analyzer at different points
throughout the first floor and basement. For all signal strength
pictures, marker 2 is at the 850 MHz signal being received from
passive network, the lower frequency signals can be ignored for
these purposes. At most points tested the signal strength is
acceptable, but there were a few problem areas identified.
Figure 11 shows a very weak signal being received in the
corridor near room #112. The closest antenna to this point is the
squad car antenna that was installed in the back hallway around the
corner. Replacing the squad car antenna will most likely alleviate
this weak spot. Figure 12 shows the signal strength received just
outside the records room near an antenna. This area should not be
as weak as it is because this data point was taken very close to an
antenna, but will also likely be alleviated with an antenna
replacement or addition. Figure 13 shows a weak signal strength
received in the basement hallway just outside the gym. To increase
the signal strength in the gym and other areas in the basement, an
additional antenna should be installed by adding a splitter to the
existing coax cable.
Alive Recommendations
Alive recommends replacing the BDA with a new Westell dual -
band 700/800 MHz (+ First Net) BDA. In addition to a new BDA, Alive
recommends replacing the donor antenna with a wider band antenna
to allow for amplification of 700 MHz and First Net signals. Alive also
recommends that indoor antennas near identified problem areas to
be replaced, with an additional splitter and antenna in the basement.
Alive can provide all the equipment necessary as well as installation
and commissioning services. Once the system is installed, all
passive components will be tested with a network analyzer to ensure
proper return loss (connector workmanship) and system isolation.
Passive System 'Testing - Coax Line Segments Return Loss and
Distance to Fault Minimum -16dB Return Loss. Isolation shall be
tested to be a minimum 20 dB greater than the amplifier settings.
System tests will be performed with portable radios and handheld
spectrum analyzer to ensure proper coverage throughout. Grid
measurements will be made to verify 95% coverage in compliance
with IFC standards.
Scope of Work Public Safety DAS Repair
Inbuilding DAS to maintain acceptable radio coverage -90 dBm or
greater over 95% of the areas of coverage.
The system will cover 700, 800 Public Safety including FirstNet Band
14. Actual frequencies per Elgin Police Department StarCom21. The
source signal will be provided by a new off -air antenna mounted on
the roof. The off -air antenna will pick up signals from the existing site
approximately 2 miles away. This signal will feed a new Bi-Directional
Amplifier, BDA. The indoor coverage will be provided by a system of
existing cables, 1power-dividers and antennas, with the exception of
replacing 1 whip, antenna and adding one more antenna to the
coverage system.
All'/2" coaxial cable will be plenum rated. Any chases or new floor or
wall penetrations will be fire sealed to return to the previous state.
All materials will be PIM and PIP rated and installation will follow R56
guidelines.
Installation of all equipment will follow the building code for the City
of Elgin, Cook County and State of Illinois.
Once the system is installed, all passive components will be tested
with a network analyzer to ensure proper return loss (connector
workmanship) and system isolation. Passive System Testing - Coax
Line Segments Return Loss and Distance to Fault Minimum -16dB
Return Loss. Isolation shall be tested to be a minimum 20 dB greater
than the amplifier settings.
System tests will be performed with portable radios and handheld
spectrum analyzer to ensure proper coverage throughout. Grid
