System Overview
2.1 System Overview
FRTek’s repeater is the most economical and effective solution for outdoor coverage with high RF
efficiency and robust feedback cancellation. ICS repeater receives 1900MHz CDMA and LTE RF signal
from BTS and transmits them to service user after amplifying to expand CDMA/LTE service coverage and
cover shadow regions with black spot where BTS installation is not available.
ICS repeater supports CDMA(forward/reverse direction) service with 5MHz, 10MHz and 15MHz
bandwidth and 5MHz bandwidth for LTE service at the same time supporting forward direction gain
control and ALC(Automatic Level Control) function for controlling tilt each donor & server antenna.

3.5 Antenna
One of the important system optimizations task is to adjust antenna tilts, or the inclination of the
antenna in relation to an axis. By doing tilt adjustment, we are able to control the received RF power to
concentrate the energy into the new desired direction. FR-RLRL45US Repeater has RET function to
adjust antenna tile.

Part 27.50
Antennas must be installed in accordance with FCC 27.50. Over 17dBi gain antennas the height of the
antenna above average terrain (HAAT) must not exceed xxxm. For different gain antennas refer to the
relevant rules.
Part 90.635 requirement
Antennas must be installed in accordance with FCC 90.635. Over 17dBi gain antennas the height of
the antenna above average terrain (HAAT) must not exceed XXXX m. For different gain antennas refer to
the relevant rules.
