Tower Mounted Amplifiers (TMA)
In cellular mobile communication systems, there are occasions of unbalanced links because of:

High base station transmit power

Limited MS transmit power
Added noise in BTS
Loss in the long cable connecting the antenna and BTS cabinet

Therefore, a mobile communication channel is uplink limited. An effective solution to improve the uplink reception is
adding a low noise amplifier (LNA), generally called tower mounted amplifier (TMA), masthead amplifier (MHA) or tower
top amplifier (TTA) in the uplink channel. TMAs improve the BTS reception as:

TMA is the closest element to the antenna and before the long tower cable
The signal loss due to the cable is compensated by the TMA gain
The noise figure of the system is determined by very low noise figure of the TMA (less than 2 dB) compared to
the cable loss
The minimum signal level that can be detected by the BTS receiver is improved which provides better receiver
sensitivity
Provide additional RX filtering

Improved receiver sensitivity by the TMA offers several advantages such as:

Enhancing voice quality and reducing drop calls

Reducing MS battery power which extends the MS battery time, reduces the MS cost, limits the MS interference
for adjacent cells, and reduces the concerns on the health issues of the MS power for the users
Increasing the communication coverage and as a result capacity
Reducing of the number of BTS towers in a specified area which is a significant cost reduction for service
providers

SDPs TMAs are designed to improve the uplink performance of the BTS receiver with the lowest noise figure and
highest reliability. SDP design addresses all the TMA needs of current and future wireless communication generations,
offering flexible solutions for every application.

Standard and custom design solutions
Multiple designs for different standards (GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, and LTE)
Covering different frequency bands in the range 450-2700 MHz
Different TMA gain values (12dB, 13dB, 24dB, 32dB, 33dB or custom)
Dual and variable gain solutions (12/32dB, 12/33dB, 12/24dB, or variable gain)
Flexible control and communication modes (CWA only, AISG only, or CWA+AISG)
Field upgradable AISG software covering different AISG versions (AISG 1.1, AISG 2.0)
