Short Corporate Overview
•
•
•
•
•
Axell Wireless is the leading European manufacturer of
confined area coverage solutions
250 Staff
The core portfolio now includes:
– Cellular solutions including LTE
– Tetra, Tetrapol, CDMA, C2000
– VHF and UHF
– FM, DAB and DVB-H Broadcast
– Software defined multiband repeaters
Key areas of focus:
– Public safety
– Transport (primarily Rail and Metro)
– Cellular and next wave Wireless
30 years of history in the field of providing wireless
coverage solutions
The Stockholm Underground
• 105 km of metro lines
• First part built in 1950 and last station opened 1975
• 100 stations
– 70 underground stations
– 30 surface stations

The Stockholm Underground
Previous underground coverage solution
• The existing SubCom system delivered
•
1991-1993
Distributed three different radio services in
underground sections
–
–
–
–
SL Train Communication Radio (160 MHz)
Swedish Police System (400 MHz)
Fire & Rescue radio (400 MHz)
900MHz and 1800MHz injected at each
station (4 operators)
• During commissioning both the old and new
system active at the same time
– ”Engineering hours” about 2-3 hours per
night
– Mobile operators systems active at all times
5
Reasons for implementing the
ERDM system
• SubCom system at the end of it’s life span (17+ years in service)
• Analogue train radio system at the end of it’s life span
• New nation wide TETRA system in Sweden
– Police
– Fire and rescue
• FM radio to the passengers underground
• Preparation for new train radio (SL own TETRA system)
• RF over Fibre Solution
– Flexible solution that can be adapted and added to
– Supervision possibilities much better

Many Challenges
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Several new wireless services
Very high redundancy required
Smooth transition from the old system
Limited number of optical fibres available
Optical add and drop coupling had to be used
High optical fibre losses
Many remote heads connected to each TBS
Existing radiating cable almost 20 years old

Redundancy
•
•
•
•
•
Overlapping coverage between stations
Two independent TBS sites providing the capacity
One dedicated TBS and one off-air fed TBS providing redundancy
Two independent fibre paths feeding each repeater
Redundant station coverage provided by the adjacent stations in
case of a repeater failure
• FM radio coverage not redundant
Redundancy
• The coverage from each station reaches the adjacent stations
• Two TBS can feed every repeater or every second repeater

CWDM technology
• The downlink path lasers in the 1270-1350 nm wavelength range
• The uplink path lasers use 1510-1590 nm wavelength
• 2 DL lasers over one fibre (high dynamic range required)
• Each UL path has a different wavelength in 20 nm separation
Fibre Regenerator
• Fibre link performance deteriorates
over 10dB optical loss
• With 4 add/drop couplers optical
losses often exceed 10dB
• The fibre regenerator restores the
optical power
Redundant Off-air Sites
• Separate off-air repeaters for:
– VHF (160MHz)
– FM (88-108MHz)
– Tetra Busskom
– Tetra Rakel
Old cables
• Coax cables in tunnels are subjected
•
•
•
•
•
to vibration and chocks
Connectors are the weak points
The end result is often PIM (Passive
Intermodulation)
PIM caused by broadband signals can
block out a whole system
Avoid placing cables hangers near
cable connections
Check cables before re-use with TDR
and PIM measurements

– R&S Test Receiver (ESPI)
– Laptop logger, Axell in-house
developed test software
– Doppler radar to detect train
movement
– GPS sync of clocks for accurate
time stamps
Example of test log
• Vertical plot – quick overview
• Horisontal plot – detailed information
Why using a fibre fed DAS ?
• Most Tetra calls inside the metro stations and tunnels are group calls
• Each TBS involved in one group call allocates one time slot for this call
• Distributing the capacity from one multi carrier TBS over the entire line
•
provides a much higher trunking efficiency than having multiple
separated TBS on the stations
The high level of redundancy required would be very difficult to get with a
TBS-only solution

Conclusions ?
• Moving from the old to the new system without interruption was a challenge
• A mix of GSM, UMTS, TETRA, PMR and FM Broadcast a planning challenge
• Passive Intermodulation can kill a multi band system, use PIM-free parts
• A Network under the surface Network will create interesting hand-over issues
• Radiating cables are not perfect for all frequency bands (88 – 2100 MHz)
• What about new services in the future?
