Wideband Bi-Sector ArrayWideband Bi-Sector Array

TenXc's Wideband Bi-Sector Array is a new and innovative solution for 1710-2170MHz band networks (AWS, DCS, PCS, UMTS 2100) to enhance cell site capacity and quality to deliver advanced multimedia services. The Bi-Sector Array provides additional service capacity using existing site infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of introducing additional sites.

TenXc's Wideband Bi-Sector Array applies the principle of paired asymmetric beams to higher order sectorization to increase overall site capacity whilst maintaining optimal coverage. The Wideband Bi-Sector Array matches a standard 65° pattern with a new asymmetric beam-pair contoured to optimize central overlap and edge roll-off characteristics. Incorporating the latest in adaptive array technology, a single directional panel with a breakthrough highly compact radome design supports both sectors reducing site antenna counts and installation time.


Benefits

  • Increases site capacity gains with higher order sectorization
  • Maximizes performance with optimal adjacent sector overlap
  • Maximizes coverage in a standard tri-sector cell plan
  • Simplifies mounting and alignment with a single dual-beam panel
  • Minimizes installation and site costs with pre-set matched patterns


Features

  • Single panel design supporting two sector beams
  • Optimized asymmetrical Left-Hand (LH) and Right-Hand (RH) RF patterns
  • High performance vertical side lobe and null infill
  • High gain array with two ports per LH and RH beam (4 RF ports per panel)
  • Dual +45° and -45° cross-polarization


Applications

  • Site capacity growth - replace existing 65° antenna or dual 33° antennas
  • High channel capacity and coverage sites - new site builds
  • Deferral of CDMA carrier adds
  • Spectrum clearing and refarming


Product Applications
Operating across the full 1710-2170MHz high band, the TenXc Wideband Bi-Sector Array is applicable to CDMA, GSM, and UMTS networks. Network site applications include the replacement of existing 65° or 33° antennas, new capacity site builds, deferral of carrier adds, and spectrum refarming in high demand or spectrum limited markets.
