GPS Installation Guidelines
A GPS unit is required for the synchronization of the TDD radio network. With the Time Division Duplex TDD operation each sector should transmit and receive at the same time, to avoid intra-cell and inter-cell interference. The GPS unit must be installed outdoors. The receiver’s antenna should be installed somewhere on the supporting structure without any obstructions on the way to the open sky. For details about the installation of the GPS unit, please refer to the guidelines of the GPS manufacturer as there is difference in mounting assembly of different manufacturers. Figure shows standard guidelines for GPS installation.
