Wilson Cellular
Announces a New Dual Band
Wireless Mobile Amplifier with Smart Technology (TM)

Wilson Cellular's Dual Band Wireless Mobile Amplifiers allow the benefit
of an external antenna and up to 3 Watt amplifier without
a physical connection to the cell phone.

What are the benefits of the Wilson Cellular Wireless Mobile Amplifiers offered by wpsantennas.com?

The Wilson Cellular Wireless Amplifiers (mobile cell phone repeaters) allow one or more users to benefit from an outside antenna and amplifier without a physical connection to the cell phone. This eliminates the need for external antenna connection on the cell phone.

Wireless vs Direct Connection?

The Wilson Cellular Wireless Amplifiers (Mobile Cell Phone Repeaters) and Direct Connect Amplifiers perform comparably in urban situations. Both amplifiers transmit up to 3 Watts of output power to the cell site and receive a signal as weak as -110dBm. For rural applications, the direct connect (inline) cell phone amplifier will perform better and is recommended.

Does the Wilson Cellular Wireless Mobile Amplifier affect a carrier's cell site?

Wilson Cellular's Wireless Mobile Amplifiers (mobile cell phone repeaters) have Smart Technology (TM) that automatically adjusts the power based upon the cell site's requirements. This patent pending technology ensures that the power to the cell site is within the carrier's specifications.

Tests by WTS Laboratories (WTS Laboratories performs cell phone certification tests for Telus Mobility, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and others) show that the Wilson Cellular Wireless Amplifiers pass important TIA/EIA-98-E tests. These are standard tests used by the cellular industry for evaluation CDMA cell phones and ensure compatibility of cell phones with cell sites. Amplifiers that are added to the systems should not harm the cell sites. They should improve cell phone performance while remaining "transparent" with their presence not affecting the cell sites' operation.

Wilson Cellular Wireless Mobile Amplifiers offered by wpsantennas.com have Patent Pending Smart Technology (TM) that allow the amplifier to be "transparent" on the carrier's system while improving coverage.

Tests show Wilson Cellular's Dual Band Wireless
Mobile Amplifier Outperforms Digital Antenna (r)
and RF Engineered Solutions (r) (RES)/Richardson Electronics

Tests by WTS Laboratories show the Wilson Cellular Dual Band Wireless Mobile Amplifier
passed the significant TIA/EIA-98-E transmit and receive tests while Digital
Antenna and RES failed.

TIA/EIA-98-E Test Results

3.5.1 - Receiver Sensitivity

Receiver Sensitivity measures the lowest amount of receive signal that allows communication based on a frame error rate that does not exceed TIA/EIA-98-E standards. From any given amplifier manufacturer, two amplifiers (used in conjunction with a cell phone) were tested. On each frequency tested, 3 tests were made using different test parameters (e.g. data rates). The sensitivity for each manufacturer's amplifier is calculated separately for each frequency band and is the average of all the measurements made on all of the amplifiers in that band. A more sensitive amplifier receiver can detect a weaker signal which allows the cell site to communicate with the cell phone at a greater distance.
 

Manufacturer Model # 800MHz 1900MHz
Wilson Cellular 801201 -110.47dBm -111.04dBm
Digital Antenna DA4000MR -107.08dBm -106.56dBm
RES B800-1900-1 -104.60dBm -106.71dBm

For example, the Wilson Cellular Dual-Band Wireless Mobile Amplifier has a receive sensitivity of -111.04dBm in the 1900MHz band and the Digital Antenna Amplifier (DA4000MR,) has a sensitivity of -106.56dBm. The Wilson Cellular amplifier can receive a signal that is 4.48dBm weaker than the Digital Antenna Amplifier (DA4000MR). (NOTE: From any given manufacturer, two amplifiers were tested.) This means that with the Wilson Cellular Amplifier you can receive a signal from the cell site up to 67% farther than with Digital Antenna's amplifier (DA4000MR). For the distance calculations, a free space model, line of site, was used.

Test show that on the 800MHz and 1900MHz bands, the Digital Antenna and RES amplifier's senstivity is less than the test cell phone alone. The cell phone used for the WTS tests has a sensitivity of -107.97dBm on 800Mhz and -107.81 on 1900MHz.

4.4.5 - Maximum RF Output Power

In order for a CDMA system to operate properly, all the cell phones that communication through a cell site must have the same signal strength at the cell site's receiver. A cell phone that has excessive power is likely to overload the cell site and cause other phones to lose communications. If a cell phone's maximum power level is not high enough, it will be beneath the receiving threshold of the cell site and will not be able to communicate.

Manufacturer Model # 800MHz 1900MHz
Wilson Cellular 801201 PASSED PASSED
Digital Antenna DA4000MR FAILED PASSED
RES B800-1900-1 FAILED FAILED

The RES amplifiers (two tested) failed the 4.4.5 tests due to low power output. In most cases, the RES amplifiers had less power output than the test cell phone.

4.4.6 - Minimum Controlled Output Power

While connecting to a cell site (open loop) or after a connection (closed loop), a cell phone is required to vary its power. The TIA/EIA-98-E test simulates the conditions where minimum power is required and measures the actual output power. If power exceeds the required level, a cell phone may overload a cell site and prevent others from communicating.

Manufacturer Model # 800MHz 1900MHz
Wilson Cellular 801201 PASSED PASSED
Digital Antenna DA4000MR FAILED PASSED
RES B800-1900-1 FAILED FAILED

For example, Digital Antenna's amplifiers (DA4000MR) on 800MHz had an average minimum output power 14dB higher than the level allowed by TIA/EIA-98-E which could cause serious interference with other cell phone users on the same channel.

NOTES:

  • WTS Laboratories, the testing facility, performs cell phone certification tests for Telus Mobility, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and others.

  • From any given manufacturer, two amplifiers were tested.
