Case study today
Case 1: Cipinang Indah Mall Indonesia
• iBwave Simulation assumption
• Coverage Scale : CIPINANG Indah Mall LG floor, 150m x 110m, total
16500m^2.
• In-building design:
• Passive SISO is designed by SI (Winet); Passive MIMO is simulated by Wave-In
• Active MIMO is designed by Wave-In (1.8GHz & 2.3GHz)
• Note that simulation result might have offset due to limited interior material
info. ; however, the results are good enough for performance comparison.

HEU connect to Hauwei RRH through 20 dB coupler because this trial is temporary site; RRH output
is 43dBm (20W) but Wave-In HEU input signal spec. can up to 30dBm;
Suggest adjust RRH output to 25-30dBm for permanent install and direct connect to HEU to avoid
20dB link budget loss on DL/UL for higher performance (affect SINR)
RAU Installation

SDAS can enable DL/UL CA in operator retail store to provide cost-effective solution
• SDAS is a good solution for HSR station, tunnel and MRT
underground coverage.
Case 3: HSR Coverage
• Design Criteria:
• BBU and RRH located in Building 1, use Wave-In SDAS to extend
LTE signal into train tunnel.
• Need to carry FET and CHT 1800MHz LTE signal
• RAU need outdoor type

Wave-In RAU
• Coverage area from TK041+900 ~ TK044+340
• About 2km 440 tunnel use 5 RAU to cover
• Need to consider train speed for no stop (~200Km/Hr) and stop service.
• KPI: 95% RSRP>95dBm; peak data rate spectrum efficiency >3.5

• For performance consideration, assume non stop train speed >200Km/Hr,
Wave-In design 1HEU to 2RAU in this case for better link budget margin.
• Even though, Wave-In SDAS can relay two operator signal using one set
of equipment, due to operator consideration on equipment property right,
Wave-In design a system diagram as following:

Slim DAS System Configuration
Source/Technology Independent
• Source vendor independent.
• Technology Independent: For example Band 3 DAS support
LTE & GSM; Band 1 DAS support WCDMA & LTE.
• Macro/Pico/Femto dynamic input range support (10dBm
~30dBm).
• Output power adjustable and end node extension support.
Single Fiber for MIMO
• Different than other active DAS, we design single fiber to
support MIMO and DL/UL both on FDD and TDD model.
• In old building like below, pipe are small and lack of space,
you can use 1/2” pipe to deploy Wave-In Solution
Daisy & Hybrid Topology
• Daisy and hybrid topology give you the most flexible
configuration compare the other star topology active DAS.
Layout
change
Auto-Optics/RF Calibration
• Auto-Optics/RF calibration feature fine tune fiber and RF link
budget to facilitate fiber lose check when initial setting or
configuration change.
• Easy for initial setting, re-configuration and monitoring; note
that during auto-calibration process, the system also detect and
report fiber loss value.
Auto Calibration Process
Environment Sensing
• UL band environment sensing help in-band and adjacent-band
NI scan to guarantee end user QoE.
• Periodic or by commend reporting.
Co-channel
Adjacent channel
Jamming
Background noise
Single Band Multi Carrier Support
• Co-Construction capability:
• Wave-In DAS system can support up to 4 multi-carrier
simultaneously.
• Note that RAU TX power will evenly split; for example 3
operator each operator RAU TX become 23dBm -4.7dB
~18.3dBm (64QAM MIMO <3% EVM).
Wave-In SDAS Solution
Key Differentiated Point
1. Single fiber support for MIMO.
2. Daisy chain & hybrid topology for deployment flexibility.
3. Auto-Optics/RF calibration for easy installation (A).
4. Environment sensing for troubleshooting and monitoring (B).
5. Single-band multi-operator support for co-construction (C).

• Single floor environment : small cell (<1000m^2)
• 2-6 floor building: RRH + passive DAS (<3000 m^2)
• 6-15 floor building: RRH + active DAS (<10000m^2)
• >15 floor building or airport shopping mall: n* Node B + active DAS
Benefit of using iBwave
• LTE indoor deployment strategy need to consider a lot of factor
• MIMO zone
• APP coverage
• CA coverage
• …
• Plus a lot of indoor solution suitable for different environment
• A planning & simulation tool like iBwave can facilitate IBS project work.
• iBwave did help Wave-In on following aspects
• Support varieties of IBS solution simulation for TCO evaluation on
pre-sales stage.
• Accurate design and simulation before installation.
• Accurate material BOM for project preparation.
• Trouble shoot tool for RF performance guidance & project acceptance.
