4) Establish a perfect digital wireless coverage network;

5) At the same time, consider that the construction is easier to achieve and the construction power, especially the reasonable routing;

6) The link meets the carrier-to-noise ratio in the coverage area ≤15dB


3.2 The principle of antenna location. The principle of antenna location is as follows:


1) Concealment guarantee: The antennas between wireless stations should be concealed to achieve a beautiful effect.

2) Feeder length: Under the premise of ensuring concealment, try to choose the position with the shortest feeder length to reduce the loss. Reduce costs for customers.

3) Try not to install it on the top of the building.

4) Easy antenna installation and construction.


3.3 Indoor signal distribution requirements


In order to meet the design requirements and take into account the difficulty of specific construction, the most reasonable route is selected for wiring and placement of repeaters to achieve uniform power distribution in the room. The coverage signal in this solution is evenly distributed by passive indoor distribution devices through feeders. Teleport to each floor. Calculate strictly in accordance with the technical indicators of the device and feeder, and control the indoor coverage entrance power antenna below 15dBm, in compliance with national electromagnetic environmental hygiene standards. An omnidirectional antenna for transmitting and receiving signals is placed on the top of the ceiling, and is connected to a repeater placed in the computer room through a feeder. The wireless signal distribution system transmits and receives signals from the antenna; the output of the repeater in the computer room is connected to the coupler, the coupler and the antenna and Shielded cables are connected (see wireless intercom distribution system diagram for details). The system design enables the signal to be effectively covered in the relevant space area, so that the entire system achieves uniform coverage, the signal is clear, stable and reliable.

3. 400-430MHz (civilian)

4. 450-470MHz (for railway)


The frequency is an accurate value in the frequency band, such as 412.125MHz, 422.075MHz. The frequency band is a range of frequencies, for example, the public security band is 350-370MHz, and the civilian 400-430MHz.


Identification of Active and Passive Devices in Wireless Intercom System


1. Two-way radio repeater is a device used to increase the distance of two-way radio communication. When the distance between two two-way radios exceeds the range of the two-way signal radiation, the two-way radio will not receive a valid signal. The function of the relay station is to forward the received signals to complete the relay between the signals.


2. The splitter is to distribute the signals received by the antenna feeder to different repeaters in the system for processing. Of course, there are different professional functions such as amplification gain and high isolation. According to the number of repeaters, splitters include two splitters, three splitters, four splitters, five splitters, six splitters ... up to 16 splitters. .


3. The combiner combines the signals transmitted by different repeaters in the system, so as to save the antenna feed system. Of course, the actual functions such as isolation, road closure and other functions. According to the number of repeaters, the combiners are divided into two-combiners, three-combiners, four-combiners, five-combiners, six-combiners, etc .. The maximum number is 16 Road device. The splitter is basically the same thing. The reverser is the combiner, which is to combine several signals together.


4. In the wireless intercom system, the duplexer isolates the signal received by the antenna feeder from the signal transmitted by the repeater, so that there is no interference. The duplexer is in two frequency bands to realize the receiving and transmitting
