    317317
    318 A GPS antenna assembly is provided, and connected to the IDU, to provide a stable and precise timing source to the base station.  The antenna assembly is connected to the IDU using a 50-ohm coax, that carries the receivedsignal to the IDU, and power to the antenna assembly.  [[BR]]
    319 
    320 The GPS antenna assembly can be mounted in any outdoor location where it can "see" the sky, but we will assume that it is mounted in the same location as the WiMAX antenna.

    323 The suggested GPS antenna assembly is the [http://www.antenna.com/apg_products.cgi?id_num=11092  PCTel GPS-TMG-SPS-40NCB]  timing reference antenna.  It provides:

     322Connectors:[[BR]]
     323 * NEC IDU:  GPS Antenna Terminal (GPS ANT): BNC connector[[BR]]

     330The suggested GPS antenna assembly is the [http://www.antenna.com/apg_products.cgi?id_num=11092  PCTel GPS-TMG-SPS-40NCB]  timing reference antenna.  It provides:[[BR]]
    324331 * integrated lightning protection  [[BR]]
    325  * heavy duty mounting clamp
    326  * amplifier with 40 dB of gain
    327 
    328 The amplifier with 40 dB of gain compensates for loss in the 50-ohm coax cable run from the GPS antenna assembly at outside site, to the IDU at the indoor site.
    329 
    330 The suggested 50-ohm coax cable is [http://www.l-com.com/multimedia/diagrams/D_RG58C-_.JPG  RG58C/U], which has a loss at the GPS frequency of approxiamately 1000MHz of 40 dB for 200 ft of cable.
