    50 dB, then an isolation of 63 ~ 65 dB or greater is required. In the same manner, because the PSR78 has a maximum gain of 90 dB, it requires an isolation of at least 103 ~ 105 dB.
  • Page 17: Line Of Sight

    PSR78 Repeater User Manual V0.1 3.5.5 Line of Sight The donor antenna which points towards the base station typically has a narrow beam antenna pattern. As a result, a slight deviation away from the direction of the BTS can lead to less than optimum results. In addition, obstacles between the repeater and the BTS may impair the repeater from obtaining any BTS signal.
