RF Training Course on Distributed Antenna System (DAS)

RF Training Course on Distributed Antenna System (DAS)


DAS is a shared infrastructure or neutral host model used to increase wireless network coverage for example Wi-Fi, GSM, CDMA/1x-EVDO, UMTS and LTE. It improves wireless quality with minimal capital investment.


DAS or Distributed Antenna System is a network of spatially separated antenna nodes that are connected to a common source through a transmission medium that provides wireless services within a geographic area or structure.

In Distributed Antenna System main hub receives the signal, digitizes it, and then distributes it to other hubs and radio heads through a high-bandwidth fiber optic network. In the antenna, the radio converts the signal from digital to RF, and then converts RF to digital.


Distributed Antenna System has 2 basic components:
  • Signal source
  • Distribution system

Signal source is the input to the DAS network. It can be an on-site BTS, a small cell or an off-air system.

After received signal by the signal source, it must be distributed.


Uses of DAS:
  • Compactly peopled municipal areas.
  • Tunnels
