MTR3000 Receiver Module: Specifications 2-3
2.2 Specifications
Table 2-1 shows the specifications of the MTR3000 Base Station/Repeater’s Receiver Module.
2.3 Functional Theory of Operation
The base station/repeater’s Receiver (Rx) is one Receiver on a single four-layer board. Refer to
Figure 2-2 for the block diagram of the Receiver module for UHF band and Figure 2-3 for 800/900
MHz band.
2.3.1 Functional Overview
2.3.1.1 Receiver Front End Circuitry
The RF signal enters the Receiver through a BNC-type RF connector, located on the bottom side of
the Receiver. The signal is then low-pass filtered, and the 1/2 IF and image frequency are filtered
through the preselector filter. This signal is then amplified using a low-noise amplifier (LNA), and
then further filtered to remove the image signal.
