  • Page 5 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Handover and Roaming Handover Handover is a process in which a call is transmitted from one base station to another without interrupting the session. When the call is set up, the handset is located at Base 1. Thus, the DECT communication takes place between the handset and Base 1, and the SIP signaling as well as the RTP stream takes place between Base 1 and the PBX: After handover, the handset is located at Base 2, and hence the DECT communication goes on between the...
  • Page 6 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Since the call control and hence the SIP User Agent remains at the initial base station, the SIP registration is also unaffected by the handover. If the handset makes yet another handover, the RTP stream will still be relayed via the base station at which the call was established (Base 1 in our case): Roaming roaming...
  • Page 7 These interferences can come from the same network or from the outside. For choosing the optimal position of the Base station and Repeaters, these potential interference sources should be considered before installing a Wildix W-AIR system. Radio/ Cell Range: a suggested distance between two base stations depends on the physical path between them.
  • Page 8 Placing the first base station Follow the steps below: place the W-AIR base station exactly at the desired position and power on the base. Check RSSI level on the handset. use the building plan drawing and check the base station coverage using the Site survey mode of the phone.
  • Page 9 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Handset Press "Menu" key of the W-AIR handset (the phone must be registered to the base station) Type *service* (*7378423*). Select the line Site survey mode The phone will show up to 5 bases (RPN) and the coverage value. Check PP and FP values, they indicate the transmission errors.
  • Page 10 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Metallic Structures/Objects: base stations and Repeaters should not be deployed near large metallic objects Reinforced Concrete Structures: these structures create a high attenuation factor inside the building. They reduce the radio coverage range of the Base stations and Repeaters thus a higher number of base stations or Repeaters are required in the building.

  • Page 17 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Bad deployment example: Good deployment example (Secondary Base 1 and 2 are at sync level 1, Secondary Base 3 is at sync level 2) Case 2: Sync chain without alternative sync paths A maximum of 250 base stations can be deployed in one setup (depending on the network requirement not all base stations should be chained).
  • Page 18 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Case 3. Sync chain with alternative sync paths. The scheme below shows a multicell network with alternative synchronisation paths. A failure of one base unit does not mean handset or users cannot perform handovers to other active cells. If the Secondary Base 2 is down, the majority of user handovers can be performed via 3 other alternative cells (i.
  • Page 19 W-AIR Network Admin Guide - Sync over the air Base 4 and 1 are Primary with alternative sync to the Primary Base. Base 5 is primary sync to Base 4 while alternative sync is Base 1 or 2.
