Indoor/In Building Coverage is Nothing but improving the GSM signals inside Buildings,undergroung tunnels etc. Signals can be improved using boosters,repeaters,Microcells or Leaky cables Typically,several,indoor ypically,several,indoor antennas or radiating coaxial coaxi al cable is used to cover Many floors,cabins,rooms,halls,basements. floors,cabins,rooms,halls,basements.
WHY THE NEED FOR THE IN BUILDING BUILDI NG SOLUTION? SOLUTION?
1.More Coverage 2.Capacity Utilization 3.No more drop calls 4.Improved quality of service 5.More Services 6.Future Technologies
IN-B IN-BUILD UILDING ING SOLUTIO SOLUTIONS NS - CO CONCEP NCEPTS TS An in-building solution may be offered in many different ways. There is always a trade-off between quality and cost. Further more there are as many tentative solutions as there are designers. One has to consider as many aspects as possible but still ensure that the In-Building Solutions, eventually eventually meets either the return of the investmen investmentt or meet the customer specific requirements or both. In most cases the payback time for a standard solution is less than two years. Ordinarily coverage from the macro network via outdoor antennas penetrates into the buildings but needs for many buildings be complement complemented ed by dedicated IBS. The implementation implementation of dedicated in-building coverage enables new traffic for the mobile operators in areas that previously were black holes and offloads the macro system in areas with over lapping in-building and macro network coverage, thereby increasing overall system coverage and capacity
