    Interference Mitigation Filter GSGS8EAFOEM General Specification Stream: 00 Issue: 07.3

    1.0 IMF Design Requirements1.1 ScopeThis general specification describes the interference mitigation filter (IMF) for the cellular frequency band. This document is intended to be used by the vendor as a specification guideline in designing and manufacturing the IMF.

    1.2 General Product ArchitectureThe IMF is intended to be used in the cellular environment when the CDMA base station has been identified to cause interference to other cellular systems.

    Although the duplexer, post HPA, provides CDMA receive band filtering, the IMF provides additional rejection of the CDMA transmit spurious noise over the receive or transmit bands of other collocated cellular systems.

    The five available variants are as follows,Table 1: IMF Variants

    The first two variants are deployed in the cellular, transmit A band (A band) and provide high rejection for the North American SMR frequencies (856 - 866 MHz, 896 - 906 MHz). These two variants provide adequate filtering for deployment of the first (starting at primary channel) four contiguous channels in the A band with the current 25 W SCPA.

    The last three variants are deployed in the transmit, cellular B band (B band ) and provide high rejection for the international GSM frequencies (890 - 915 MHz). These three variants provide adequate filtering for deployment of the first (starting at the primary channel) six contiguous channels in the B band with the current 75W PA (MCPA).

    The unit, NTGS8EAF, may also provide adequate filtering for a 100 W PA. This remark is supported by data from the evaluation of a prototype 100 W PA (SCHPA).

  • page 16 IMF Design Requirements

    Interference Mitigation Filter GSGS8EAFOEM General Specification Stream: 00 Issue: 07.3

    Although there are five variants, there are only two configurable designs to be qualified for the first four variants. The A band design is tunable over both A band variants and the B band design is tunable over both B band variants. Note that the IMF filters will be configurable by IMF vendor only and not by customer or field personnel. A configurable design refers to a common filter housing, ceramic puck support structure and ceramic puck profile and temperature compensation.

    There are six possible electrical locations for the IMF; between the HPA and duplexer (Figure 1 ), between the two channel combiner and duplexer (Figure 2 ), between the HPA and antenna (Figure 3 ) , between the two channel combiner and antenna (Figure 4 ), between the Multi-Channel Power Amplifier and duplexer (Figure 5 ) or between the Multi-Channel Power Amplifier and antenna (Figure 6 ).

    12.0 Reliability AssuranceThe intent of this section to define the reliability and quality requirements for this product and to ensure that it will be able to meet all technical specifications through its life time.

    12.1 ReliabilityThe vendor shall commit, on a best efforts basis to a targeted total annualized field return rate of the IMF in the first year of production of less than or equal to 2.25 %, less than or equal to 1.25 % for the second year and for on going years of less than or equal to 1.00 %. The field return rate is determined from the total failures, due to random component failure workmanship, manufacturing error and latent design flaws, of all shipped IMF product operating under normal conditions (see sections 5.0 through 8.0). The vendor shall detail a mutually acceptable method for calculating the field return rate.

    The supplier will track and document all field performance data on all deployed products to customers. In the event of a product failure in the field, Nortel shall ship failed units to the supplier in a timely manner. The supplier will analyze the failed units and release a report to NORTEL describing the failures which were found. The report should include a failure log, a Pareto of failure causes and the corrective actions to be implemented.

    The field return rate of the IMF for the second year of production must improve compared to the first year specifically due to improved manufacturing processes and/ or better component selection, information acquired through failure analysis which is incorporated into the production process. The product must not require re-qualification (see sections 6.0 through 8.0) to obtain the improvement in the total field return rate.

    The vendor shall submit a projected rate of return report or MTBF report at the beginning of the project.

    12.2 Product Reliability GrowthDuring the ongoing manufacturing of this product, it is expected, as part of a joint commitment to high quality products, that the supplier demonstrate a continual product reliability growth. The supplier will provide information on which reliability growth model will be used to demonstrate ongoing product reliability growth. The supplier must continually identify the majority contributors to poor yield on this product and take the appropriate steps to address these issues.

    A report is required quarterly that illustrates the current reliability level and a list of actions that were used to create growth. The report is to be issued to Department W469 (component engineering) at Nortel.

    12.3 Shipped Product Quality Level

  • Reliability Assurance page 43

    Interference Mitigation Filter GSGS8EAFOEM General Specification Stream: 00 Issue: 07.3

    The shipped product quality level shall be 0.8 % in the first year and 0.8 % in the following years. The shipped product quality level refers to the percentage of the annual defective product compared to the total annual shipped product which are discovered during factory audits or during product installation.

    12.4 Statistical Process MonitoringThe vendor will implement Statistical Process Monitoring during production testing. Supplier must provide a quarterly report of Cpk values measured on the following critical parameters of this product: return loss (input and output), insertion loss, rejection for A band variants at 856 - 866 Mhz, rejection for A band variants at 896 - 906 MHz and rejection for B band variants at 890 - 915 MHz.
