2.1 Finder WLS Overview
The TruePosition Finder WLS is a network of managed nodes deployed in a carrier’s coverage area. It estimates the location of mobile devices in the area, based on the time difference of arrival (TDOA) of the signals from that mobile device in the WLS nodes surrounding them.
The WLS is implemented as an overlay network to a wireless carrier’s existing communications network. The system can estimate the geographic location, direction of travel, and speed of a Mobile Station (MS) or transmitter. The WLS was designed so that carriers can support location services for the substantial base of subscribers using a variety of air interface protocols. The WLS technology and product design supports numerous air interfaces.
TruePosition uses a patented form of TDOA with Pathfinder™ multipath mitigation as the core of its location technology. TDOA has been proven over many decades to be the location technology of choice for most high accuracy location applications for military and commercial purposes. The most popular location system in the world, the Global Positioning System (GPS), is also based on a form of TDOA.
The WLS architecture consists of the AnyPhone Location Measurement Unit (LMU) and iFind Serving Mobile Location Center (SMLC), which function together to perform the location calculations, and the ServiceGate Wireless Location Gateway (WLG) and Element Management System (EMS), which function together to support network management and user applications. The SCOUT application works with the EMS as a part of the Operations Support System (OSS). The SCOUT application provides the configuring mechanism for the WLS, while the EMS allows WLS operators to perform network management, limited system configuration management, performance management, and alarm management.
The WLS supports connectivity to external networks and can function as a service node, supporting Advanced Intelligent Network (AIN) triggers from external applications. The total system enables wireless carriers to develop, deploy, and manage new location services quickly and profitably.

Typically, an AnyPhone LMU is collocated at carrier cell sites, while the remaining components are centrally located with the carrier's Mobile Switching Center (MSC). The interconnection between the LMU and the SMLC is a groomed digital signal (DS0, or fractional T1) link. The interconnection to the remaining components is based on the Internet protocol (IP), with the exception of the WLG-BSC interface, which is based on SS7 or SIGTRAN. Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2 show the options for WLS configuration.

After an E911 call is made, the cell site Mobile Positioning Center (MPC) sends position requests to the WLG, which forwards them to the SMLC for processing. The LMU and SMLC operate together to calculate locations. The SMLC to WLG and WLG to MPC communicate using a TCP/IP LAN or WAN connection. The LMU is usually located at carrier cell sites. Other network components may be centrally located, or they may be located at the Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO).
2.2 LMU System Description
NOTE
This section defines the overall function of the LMU (The remaining sections of the manual describe the installation of specific LMUs by band).
The TruePosition Anyphone Location Measurement Unit (LMU) is the front-end element of the TruePosition Finder WLS. The Anyphone LMU is fundamental in determining E911/112 location estimates. It can process signals from up to six separate antennas per cell site, using digital receiver modules. The LMU has the following features:
• It demodulates and digitizes radio frequency (RF) signals from multiple mobile wireless devices.
• It supports 850 and 1900 MHz, or dual-frequency band (e.g. 850/1900) operations with Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Timed Division Multiple Access (TDMA), and Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) air-interface protocols.
• It has a one rack-unit (1RU) or two rack-unit (2RU) form factor platform that accommodates traditional omni or sectored antennas and radio diversity configurations.
• It contains a receiver assembly with six receiver channels. LMU receivers process wide-band RF energy from multiple directional antennas, typically configured as three sectors with diversity pairings, across each band of interest.
• In the dual-band configuration, it is equipped with a down converter module with six receiver channels that receive wide-band RF energy at the 1900 frequency bands. The down converter module translates these incoming frequency signals to the 850 frequency band.
From the receiver, signals are passed on to the Central Processor/Digital Signal Processor (CP/DSP) module for digitizing, digital storage and signal processing. The
AnyPhone™ LMU 850 MHz Installation Guide
2-6 Confidential and Proprietary • 7221-1861-0000 • Revision D
received signals in all cases must be time and frequency synchronized to support the location accuracy required from the TDOA system.
• By deploying LMU units across multiple cell sites, the network is protected from single point of failure scenarios, due to overlapping coverage of any given caller location from redundant cell sites.

6. DETERMINING THE GSM DOWNLINK ANTENNA CONFIGURATION
GSM downlink antenna installation applies for GSM installations only. To support GSM location processing from an AnyPhone LMU, you must install a GSM downlink antenna at the cell site, connect it to the LMU, and download GSM capable software.
GSM downlink antennas can be installed either inside the base-station shelter or outside with or separate from the GPS antenna, typically attached to the shelter, or on the ice bridge.
Determine the GSM downlink antenna configuration based on the following criteria:
• If some cell sites in a particular market do not have LMUs (less than 100% deployment), install an external model downlink antenna in the same location as the GPS antenna. If it is not possible to mount the GSM downlink antenna with the GPS antenna, mount it on the ice bridge or on the shelter. For instructions, see the appropriate Installing External GSM Downlink Antenna section.
• If LMUs are being installed at all cell sites in a market (100% deployment), install an internal (inside the shelter) model GSM downlink antenna based on the following rule, if recommended by network design.
– Install the press-on internal GSM downlink antenna if space allows; otherwise, install the internal downlink antenna on the equipment rack. If space does not allow the rack mounting option, install a magnetically mounted antenna. For instructions, see the appropriate Internal GSM Downlink Antennas section.
NOTE
Before mounting the GSM downlink antenna to the ice bridge, ensure that this is an approved mounting method at the cell site.

7.2 Mounting Requirements
This section defines how to mount and install the GPS antenna. The GPS antenna must be mounted with a clear view of the sky providing continuous visibility to a minimum of four satellites. To avoid overhangs that block visibility, extend the universal mount 8 or 12 inches by selecting the appropriate adjustment holes. If necessary, an extension pole is provided to raise the GPS antenna above obstructions.
GPS antenna mounting depends on the following criteria:
• The location where you want to mount the antenna (for example, on a wall, pole, or ice bridge).
• Whether a GSM downlink antenna must be mounted with the GPS antenna.
• Whether you are installing on an Ericsson RBS 2102 or 2106.
Follow the procedure in the appropriate subsection based on the mounting surface.

10.1 Introduction
Internal GSM downlink antennas are mounted inside the base-station shelter. Use installation kit PL-06-1714.
There are three methods for installing the internal GSM downlink antennas:
• Mounted directly to the front panel of the LMU. For instructions, see section 10.2: Mounting the GSM Downlink Antenna to the LMU.
• On the equipment rack rail with the LMU. For instructions, see section 10.3: Installing the Rack-mounted GSM Downlink Antenna.
• On the equipment rack with the LMU using a magnetic mount. For instructions, see section 10.4: Installing the Magnetically Mounted GSM Downlink Antenna.
NOTE
The mounting methods are listed in order of preference, with the most desirable preference listed first.
10.2 Mounting the GSM Downlink Antenna to the LMU
Connect a press-on antenna directly to the ports marked A through D on the LMU. The GSM downlink antenna must be mounted vertically regardless of the orientation of the LMU. For dual-band installations point one antenna up and the other down. Figures 10-1 and 10-3 show examples of a dual-band installation.

AnyPhone™ LMU 850 MHz Installation Guide
12-2 Confidential and Proprietary • 7221-1861-0000 • Revision D
NOTE
You must close the Procomm application before disconnecting the console cable.
12.2 Standard Operating Mode
To operate the LMU using the ProComm Chat Window, you must be in Standard mode. The LMU automatically boots in standard mode if it is receiving GPS and T1 /E1/V.35 signals. Standard mode is defined as:
• The default mode
• Displays the LMU> prompt
• Is used for all commands described in this section
• Is also referred to as the dshell
• Is not case sensitive when used with the ProComm Chat window
If the LMU does not have a T1 /E1 or V.35 connection and/or Gps locked (i.e., No GPS connection) following a power up or reset, the start up process stops from automatically placing the LMU into the standard operating mode.
This is a common condition at installation time, since LMUs are not configured for the proper interface modes and strapping. These conditions can be confirmed by R and observing the LMU prompt.
1 If the prompt is BOOT>, then the LMU does not have the proper T1/E1/V.35 connections/signals.
2 If the prompt is --->, then the LMU has the proper T1/E1/V.35 connections/signals, but if does have a condition, such as “no GPS signal lock”.
Section 12.3: Operating Following A Reset instructs the operator how to manually command the LMU into Standard Operating Mode so it can be configured and tested.
12.3 Operating Following A Reset
This section describes how to operate the LMU following a reset.
12.3.1 Reset without a T1/E1/V.35 Signal
This section provides instructions for resetting the LMU when it does not have a T1 / E1/V.35 connection. You need to reset the LMU with the T1 / E1/V.35 port disconnected when configuring the T1 DS0 assignment described in Section 13: Set Up Strapping.

15.1 Introduction
This section defines the test procedure for evaluating LMU RF ports using the BIT 6 test.
The RF path test evaluates the LMU port connection. The test determines if the LMU RF path is adequate for receiving transmissions and sensing mobile subscriber transmissions. The procedure provides pass or fail results.
RF path and mobile transmissions are evaluated by comparing the noise floor against the
connected cable.
• For an LMU with a normal gain or no block down converter, optimal results require the multi coupler gain to be at least 10 dB. If the signal is between 6 and 9 dB, the results may not be accurate. If the signal is less than 6dB, results are invalid.
• For an LMU configured with a high gain block down converter or a high gain receiver, optimal results require the multi coupler gain to be at least 20 dB. If the signal is between 16 and 19 dB, the results may not be accurate. If the signal is less than 16dB, results are invalid.
• For an LMU with a high gain block down converter and a high gain receiver, optimal results require the multi coupler gain to be at least 30 dB. If the signal is between 26 and 29 dB, the results may not be accurate. If the signal is less than 26dB, results are invalid.
To perform the RF signal test, complete the following steps:
1 Obtain the appropriate channels that are available for testing from the local market.If you perform the testing using a channel that is not available, the message BIT 6 Bad Parameter Value(s) displays.
AnyPhone ™ LMU 850 / 1900 MHz Dual Band Installation Guide
15-2 Confidential and Proprietary • 7221-1862-0000 • Revision D
NOTE
The appropriate channels to test may be ascertained by reviewing the results of the Searchbcn test in absence of the appropriate channels from the local market.
2 For GSM installations only, you must disable the Beacon Search before performing this test or the results will not be reliable. To stop the Beacon Search, type Searchbcn none
3 Prior to testing each port you must use the gains command to maximize gains on the port.
4 Test the RF signal with the cables connected to the LMU following the instructions in sections 15.2 through 15.5. For a dual-band LMU you must perform this test on the 850 MHz and 1900 MHz bands.
5 Remove the cables from the LMU ports and test the RF noise floor following the instructions in sections 15.2 through 15.5. For a dual-band LMU you must perform this test on the 850 MHz and 1900 MHz bands.
6 Make a copy of Table 15-6 and record your results there. For dual band you need two copies of Table 15-7.
7 Record your results on your copy(s) of Table 15-7.
8 For instructions about how to evaluate the data entered in Table 15-7, refer to Section 15.5
9 When the test is complete, reset the LMU.
The following subsections define performing the test on each frequency band and describe how to record and evaluate the results. Figure 15-1 illustrates the function of the RF path test

15.5 Bit 6 Evaluation
For each port, band, and channel review the measurements made with the cables connected and with the cables disconnected. If you see peak values for some channels, these are channels where transmissions were occurring during the test.
Subtract the values obtained for each port, each channel with cables connected form the values obtained for each port, each channel with the cables disconnected (this is the Result).
The port passes if each result is greater than or equal to the value in the Reliable Results column of Table 15-6. Use Table 15-5 to determine if the LMU is Normal or High Gain. The TruePosition Serial number is located on the button front of the LMU.
If all ports pass for all channels, the RF signal results are good. Proceed to Section 16: Perform DSP and CP Memory Tests.
If one or more ports for any channel fails on either band, refer to Section 18: Troubleshooting for instructions on finding and correcting problems.
If the Results are in the unreliable range after troubleshooting, contact the TAC
If the Results are in the may not be reliable range and you have checked and confirmed that the cable and connectors are good, report the issue to the customer.
Duplicate Table 15-7 so you can record the Bit 6 test results. Table 15-8 shows an example of a typical Bit 6 test.

18.5.1 Troubleshoot the Uplink RF Ports
Read this section to determine whether an RF uplink port on the LMU or the multicoupler has failed, or if a cable failed.
This test swaps an RF cable between ports to identify cable and port integrity. The test recommends moving a cable from a suspect bad port (A) to a known good port (B). Known good ports are those that pass the RF signal tests described in Section 16, Test RF Signals.
To troubleshoot LMU RF uplink ports:
1 Swap the cable from the LMU RF uplink port with no signal (A) to a known good RF uplink port (B).
2 Perform an RF signal test on port (B) using the procedures described in Section Test RF Signals. If an RF signal is not present on the port, refer to 18.5.2: Check Faulty RF Cable.
3 If the RF signal is not present on port (B) in step 2 and the cable is good, the port on the multi-coupler has failed. Report this result to the carrier.
4 If the RF signal is present on the port (B) in step 2, reset the LMU.
a) If the LMU does not have a T1 connection, the startup process will stop and wait for input.
b) Type proc and press R to allow the LMU to continue. The proc command is not visible on the terminal screen when you type it.
5 Re-connect the cable to the original port (A).
6 Perform an RF signal test on port (A) using the procedures described in Section 7.8 Test RF Signals. If an RF signal is not present on the port, replace the LMU.
Evaluating Results
If only one LMU RF port fails, replace the LMU.
If a port on the multicoupler fails, contact the carrier.
If all or most of the ports fail, test the RF cables. For instructions, see 18.5.2: Check Faulty RF Cable.
If the cabling is correct, the LMU was deployed with an incorrect gain for the site. Do the following:
• Verify site survey and installation.
AnyPhone™ LMU 850 MHz Installation Guide
7221-1861-0000 • Revision D • Confidential and Proprietary 18-25
• Replace with an LMU containing the appropriate higher or lower gain hardware.
NOTE
When returning an LMU to TruePosition, complete the following steps:
1. Note the appropriate alarm on the ProComm window.
2. Refer to the Fault Codes column in Table 18-1 for the fault code associated with the specific alarm.
For example, alarm FAULT_MISCONFIGURED_GAIN_OBJECTS corresponds to fault code LMU 45.
3. Enter the appropriate fault code on the Field Return Request Form.
NOTE
If the RF problem cannot be isolated in the LMU or cable report the problem to the carrier and indicate that an RF problem exists at the base station. Do not replace the LMU.
18.5.2 Check Faulty RF Cable
To test a faulty RF cable:
1 Test cable with volt-ohm meter. Look for open circuit or short circuit. Normal readings for an antenna is 60 to 100 ohms:
– Center pin to shield should be infinite resistance indicating an open circuit
– center pin to center pin (end to end) should be two to three ohms indicating a short
2 Use the Sitemaster to sweep the cable to locate the fault. A fault is detected when the test result exceeds 1:1.3 VSWR.
3 Remove and replace faulty connectors or cables as needed.
18.5.3 Troubleshoot the GPS Antenna Path
This procedure describes how to test the path between the GPS port and the GPS antenna using a Trimble unit. It uses a process of elimination to test the path from the LMU to the GPS antenna by eliminating one component at a time until the entire path is tested. If the Trimble unit locates 3 or fewer satellites, there is a failed component in the path. Each
AnyPhone™ LMU 850 MHz Installation Guide
18-26 Confidential and Proprietary • 7221-1861-0000 • Revision D
time the test fails, you remove the last component from the path and retest until you have identified and eliminated the failure.
Figure 18-1 illustrates the troubleshooting process using the Trimble unit.
Figure 18-1: Troubleshooting the GPS path using the Trimble unit
To troubleshoot the GPS port connection:
1 Disconnect the cable from the GPS port, and connect the Trimble unit to the end of the path to the GPS antenna.
2 Test the path to the GPS antenna using the Trimble unit connected to the GPS cable.
– If the Trimble locates at least four satellites, the GPS signal is good. Re-connect the cable to the LMU. If the LMU locates four or more satellites the problem is resolved; otherwise; replace the LMU.
– If the Trimble does not locate at least four satellites, go to the next step.
NOTE
Repeat the next two steps until you isolate the failed component.
3 Disconnect the last component from the path to the GPS antenna, and connect the Trimble unit in its place.

8 Determine if there are duplicate beacons or a beacon with a power level of -10dB or greater.
– Duplicate beacons occur when more than one beacon contains the same cell global identity. Beacons have the same cell global identity when the MCC, MNC, CellId, and LAC values are the same for different beacons. For an example of MCC, MNC, CellId, and LAC values, see Exibit 18-1.
– Beacons have a power level greater than -10 dB, when the power level for a beacon shows a value greater than -10 dB. For example, -5 or 15 dB. Exibit 18-1 shows a list of power levels for beacons located by an LMU.
If either of these conditions exist go to step 9. Otherwise, the procedure is complete and the LMU is not experiencing beacon saturation problems.

B.1 OverviewThis appendix contains tables for selecting cables based on the measured gain at the multicoupler, combined with the length of the cable between the multicoupler and the AnyPhone LMU. The following tables appear:
• 850 MHz RF antennas
• 1900 MHz RF antennas
Use the chart for the correct frequency connection on the LMU. That the tables apply for two cable types.
• RG8X cable
• FSJ2 cable
NOTE
The charts are blank for any situation where the combination of multicoupler gain and cable length is outside the capabilities of both types of cables. For those situations, call the TruePosition Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for advice on what cable to use.
B.2 Using the TablesFollow the instructions in 5.4: Select Cables to determine the cable length and multicoupler gain for each cable. Use those two figures to locate the cell in the table where the multicoupler gain column intersects the row for the length of cable. Use the indicated cable type for fabricating this cable

NOTEThis troubleshooting procedure outlines the process for a two segment installation without an amplifier: one cable segment runs between the LMU and the surge arrestor, and the other segment runs between the surge arrestor and the antenna.
3. Verify the GPS feed voltage on LMU front panel connector is 5VDC ± 10%.
4. If the above voltage is not in specification, replace (RMA) the LMU. Program new LMU and continue troubleshooting.
5. Measure the resistance between the center pin and shield of the GPS feed line at the SMA connector. It should read between 200 and 260 ohms depending on the cable length and surge arrestor.
NOTEA Huber-Suhner antenna should measure between 60 and 100 ohms
6. Disconnect the cable from the protected side (LMU side) of the surge arrestor

8. If the resistance is not infinity, replace the N-type connector and retest.
9. If the cable assembly still does not read infinity, replace the SMA connector.
10. If after replacing both connectors, the resistance is not infinity, the cable has been contaminated by water leakage due to failed weatherproofing, and must be replaced.
NOTEIf the surge arrestor is located outdoors, the weatherproofing may be compromised and the cable may need to be replaced. The technician must assess the likelihood of moisture damage and replace cable and connectors accordingly.
It may be more efficient to replace the cable and connectors at the outset if the run is relatively short and accessible, versus replacing the connectors and then determining that the cable requires replacement. Only for long or inaccessible cable runs is it advisable to retain the cable due to the difficulty in ascertaining with certainty that moisture has not compromised the cable.
Refer to Additional Troubleshooting Issues
11. Check the resistance to the antenna from the protected side (LMU side) of the surge arrestor.
12. Remove cable from the unprotected side (antenna side) of the surge arrestor.
13. Check the resistance from the N-type connector to the antenna.
14. Disconnect the cable from the GPS antenna.
IF THEN
Resistance is between 200 and 260 Ohms (60–100 Ohms for H+S).
Skip to Step 22.
Resistance is not between 200 and 260 Ohms (60–100 Ohms for H+S).

15. Check the resistance between the center pin and shield of the fully disconnected cable. It should read infinity.
16. If not, replace the N-type connector and retest.
17. If the cable assembly still does not read infinity, replace the antenna side N-type connector.
18. If after replacing both connectors, the resistance reading is not infinity, the cable has been contaminated by water leakage due to failed weatherproofing, and must be replaced.
19. While the GPS antenna is disconnected from the cable assembly, check the resistance of the antenna. Replace the antenna if the measured resistance is outside of the following ranges:
• Huber-Suhner antenna should measure between 60 and 100 Ohms
• Symetricom antenna should measure between 200 and 260 Ohms
20. Reconnect the cable from the antenna to the unprotected side (antenna side) of the surge arrestor.
21. Check the resistance to the antenna from the protected side (LMU side) of the surge arrestor. If it does not read between 200 and 260 ohms (60–100 Ohms for H+S), replace the surge arrestor.
22. Reconnect the GPS cable to the protected side of the surge arrestor (LMU side).
23. Reconnect the cable to the GPS port on the LMU.
24. Reset the LMU. The alarm should now be cleared.

26. If the alarm persists, replace the LMU. (Refer to Chapter 5 — LMU Pre-Installation and the following chapters 6 through 17).
27. Replace weatherproofing at the GPS antenna and the surge arrestor (if outdoors) taking special care to ensure that proper weather protection procedures and materials are used to prevent reoccurrence.
Additional Troubleshooting Issues
The troubleshooting technician should be aware of the conditions that could influence problem solving for the LMU.
– Depending on the severity of the problem, you may discover that the LMU has lost its 5VDC on the GPS front panel connector—it may or may not return after reset.
– Depending on how long the LMU has been out of contact with the GPS Constellation, you may need to wait as much as a half hour before the LMU comes up and the alarm should clear immediately
– Water leakage may not be visible, since the cable shield acts like a wick drawing any moisture away from the connector and deeper inside the cable
– When cable is contaminated with water, you may see the resistance value rise over time as the cable dries out— it may even appear to “fixes itself” as the resistance eventually reaches near infinity.
– GPS cable is subject to 5VDC. If the surge arrestor is mounted outdoors it is likely that internal corrosion has occurred due to electrolysis if the weatherproofing has been compromised. Since the integrity of the cable can not be assessed, it is advisable where possible to replace the cable assembly
D.3.3. GPS Holdover Alarm
Problem — The Console Port Alarm displays the FAULT_GPS_ HOLDOVER alarm.
Failure Condition — Engine has not found qualified satellites or no signal present.
Description of Failure — The position is wrong (incorrect coordinates), or the LMU cannot qualify on the minimum number of GPS satellites for timing purposes.
Likely Cause — This condition occurs due to incorrect coordinates, an internal LMU malfunction, or a problem in the GPS signal path. The internal LMU malfunction can occur when the GPS receiver time stamp is lost.
Possible Corrective Actions — Perform each step in sequence.

EMPs must be well grounded to properly protect your system. Be sure to keep the number of connections from the EMP body to electrical ground at a minimum. Surge current takes the path of least resistance to ground. Each connection and each length of grounding cable increases the resistance to ground and reduces the quality of that path. Firmly mounting an EMP directly to a clean bonding bar keeps the number of connections and resistance to ground at a minimum. Examples of different mounting configurations using this kit are shown below. Different systems have different grounding methodologies. Prior to installation on site, confirm the location and mounting method with customer representative and/or operations personnel.
