RF Review
Version 3.2
RF Considerations, page 1
Attenuation: Not a big issue, since Canopy operates in 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Still needs to be considered, because signal strength decreases as range increases. Earth Curvature: Must be added to your LOS path calculations, especially over 10 miles (16 km) Fresnel Zone Clearance: For best performance, keep the Fresnel Zone clear. Minimum clearance: 60% LOS: Most Canopy products require line-of-sight for clear transmission.
RF Considerations, page 2
Reflection & Multi-path: RF signals bouncing off objects (man-made or natural) will arrive at destination at different times. Reduce reflection & multi-path for best performance. RF Power Most Canopy modules power output is no more than 1 watt. 900 MHz modules power output is 4 watts. 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz, 5.4 GHz and 5.7 GHz offer adjustable power modules. A reflector will increase the EIRP. C/I Ratio In general, Canopy provides 3dB or lower C/I. 20 Mbps Backhaul and Advantage equipment running at 2x operations provide 8 dB or lower C/I. Consult the Canopy website for complete specifications.

Version 3.2
APs and 10 or 20 Mbps BH modules can be collocated on the same tower observing the following rules: APs and BH modules should be on different bands If APs and BH-master modules are in the same band, they must be vertically separated on the structure by a minimum of 30 meters (100 feet). If an RF shield were deployed between the APs and BH-master modules, then the vertical separation could be reduced. A match on the Uplink and Downlink data and control channels can also reduce the vertical separation requirements. All Canopy AP and BH modules, even those belonging to a competitor, must be synchronized by a CMM. APs or BH-Ms cannot be collocated with SMs or BH-Ss on single band operation.

APs and the Canopy 45 Mbps Backhaul can be collocated on the same tower observing the following rules: The APs and 45 Mb BH units should be mounted at least 6 feet (1.8 m) apart vertically. When the AP and the 45 Mb BH are both using the 5.7 GHz band, separate the frequencies as much as possible.
For example, use 5735, 5755 and 5775 MHz for the Canopy AP modules. Select 5800, 5806, 5812, 5818, 5824, 5830, 5836 and 5842 for the Canopy 45 Mbps Backhaul modules. Ensure there is at least 25 MHz separation between adjacent AP and 45 Mbps BH frequencies. The 45 Mbps BH has additional guidelines on angular separation between multiple backhaul units.
Version 3.2
Select three non-overlapping frequencies for Access Point clusters Assume 8 MHz channel separation for 900 MHz systems Assume 20 MHz channel separation for 2.4, 5.2 and 5.4 systems Note, the 5.4 GHz band offers 11 nonoverlapping channels; Canopy still recommends you use 3 per cluster. Each of these frequencies can be used twice in a cluster, as demonstrated here.

IP Review
11
Canopy modules are assigned IP addresses for network management purposes. Hosts, including Canopy modules, universally are assigned unique Ethernet (MAC layer 2) addresses. Canopy, in most cases, appears like a Layer 2 switch and is transparent to layer 2 protocols including DHCP, PPPoE, VPN, etc.
12
Version 3.2
Needed to address Access Points, Backhaul modules and other network devices Used internally by each Access Point to address Subscriber Modules May be used to directly access Subscriber Modules from the AP side via IP routing Requires a network administrator to assign each IP address Can use private (not-routable) IP addresses (preferred, as security feature)
13
Each Canopy module requires one IP address on the network for management. Subscriber Modules may be configured to not take up IP address space (no public IP address). Canopy modules IP addresses should not be routable over the Internet. Canopy modules IP addresses should not share the same subnet as your users allocated IP address space. Canopy modules IP addresses are only used for module management by network operators.

User gateways (i.e. Linksys Box) allow for large networks to be attached to each Subscriber Module (NAT, Firewalls, etc.). Canopys NAT (Network Address Translation) feature allows networks to be attached to each Subscriber Module and provides a firewall function, preventing devices attached to one Subscriber Module from seeing devices on another Subscriber Module. The Subscriber Module acts as a Traffic Director: The Subscriber Module will decide if traffic generated by a device attached to it is destined for another device on the same network.
If it is, it is directed to the destination device. If not, it is directed over the wireless link.

This example shows that network traffic addressed to equipment behind SM #3 is delivered to that destination. Local traffic, generated from and addressed to devices on the same network behind SM-3, is delivered locally without being routed to the AP. Other traffic, not addressed to any equipment behind any of the SMs depicted here, is not routed to those modules.

All Canopy modules (Subscriber Modules, Access Points and Backhauls) have the default IP address 169.254.1.1. For a computer to talk to Canopy, as it comes from the factory, either of the following conditions must be met:
If the computer is not configured for DHCP, then it has to have a static IP address on the 169.254 network (i.e. 169.254.1.5). If the computer is configured for DHCP, then it will automatically obtain an IP address on the 169.254 network after a minute or two, as long as it is not connected to the network.

GPS Fundamentals
NAVSTAR The NAVigation Satellite Timing and Ranging (NAVSTAR) GPS is an all weather, radio based, satellite navigation system that enables users to accurately determine 3-dimensional position, velocity, and time worldwide. The overall system consists of three major segments: the space segment, the ground control segment, and the user segment. Space Segment The space segment is a constellation of satellites operating in 12hour orbits at an altitude of 20,183 km (10,898 mi). The constellation is composed of 24 satellites in six orbital planes, each plane equally spaced about the equator and inclined at 55 degrees.

21
GPS Fundamentals
Ground Segment The ground control segment consists of a master control center and a number of widely separated monitoring stations. The ground control network tracks the satellites, precisely determines their orbits, and periodically uploads almanac ephemeris and other system data to all satellites for retransmission to the user segment. User Segment The user segment is the collection of all GPS user receivers (such as the Motorola Oncore GPS Receiver used in the CMM) and their support equipment.

GPS Fundamentals
Navigation with the receiver is accomplished by passive multilateration. More simply, the GPS receivers position is determined by the geometric intersection of several simultaneously observed ranges (satellite to receiver distances) from satellites with known coordinates in space. The receiver measures the transmission time required for a satellite signal to reach the receiver. Transit time is determined using code correlation techniques. The actual measurement is a unique time shift for which the code sequence transmitted by the satellite correlates with an identical code generated in the tracking receiver. The receiver code is shifted until maximum correlation between the two codes is achieved.
23
GPS Fundamentals
This time shift multiplied by the speed of light is the receivers measure of the range to the satellite. This measurement includes various propagation delays, as well as satellite and receiver clock errors. Since the measurement is not a true geometric range, it is known as a pseudorange. The receiver processes these pseudorange measurements along with the received ephemeris data (satellite orbit data) to determine the users three-dimensional position. A minimum of four pseudorange observations are required to mathematically solve for four unknown receiver parameters (i.e., latitude, longitude, altitude, and clock offset). If one of these parameters is known (for example, altitude fixed) then only three satellite pseudorange observations are required and thus only three satellites need to be tracked.

GPS NAVIGATION MESSAGE The GPS navigation message is the data supplied to the user from a satellite. The navigation message consists of a 50 bit per second data stream containing information enabling the receiver to perform the computations required for successful navigation. Each satellite has its own unique code that provides satellite identification for acquisition and tracking by the user.

Canopy Auto-Sense
Auto-sense of CAT 5 cable capability on a Canopy module can be determined as follows: Check the circuit board revision: With the CAT 5 port pointing down, the board revision is located on the right side of the circuit board next to the metal shield. It typically looks like "ISS G 5.7 GHz" or "ISS B 5.2 GHz". There have only been 2 revisions of the 5.2 GHz boards, Revisions A and B.

NOTES ON LIGHTNING PROTECTION A properly designed lightning protection system provides a path for lightning current to travel. The system neither attracts nor repels a lightning strike, but simply intercepts and guides the current harmlessly to ground. A lightning protection system is generally made up of several components. Air Terminals: (lightning rods etc.): Inconspicuous slender rods installed on a roof or tower as defined by industry standards. In some cases, these rods are placed on a tower leg opposite to the one on which the radio(s) is mounted. This is to direct the lightning strike away from the equipment.

A lightning protection system is designed to control or redirect a lightning strike on a specified path. The system does not prevent a strike, but provides a path on which the electrical current can safely be directed to ground. A properly designed lightning protection system will not attract a bolt of lightning. Designing a grounding system prior to installing radios, antennas or other equipment on a roof or tower structure is critical to minimize the possibility of damage to equipment and serious injury to personnel.

Canopy software upgrades use FTP for file transfer and Telnet to process the upgrade files. Telnet and FTP should only be used for upgrading software or as indicated by Technical Support or in Canopy Technical Release Notes. Any other use of these utilities, not authorized by Canopy Technical Support, is not supported and may result in erratic module performance.

32
SMs must be running release 4.0.x to be auto-updated. SMs running release 3.x will not auto-update.
FTP the appropriate files into an AP (including the action list that comes with the software release). Use FTP to transfer the correct APboot.bin or APASboot.bin software to the AP. Also transfer FPGA and boot software (if required). Telnet to the AP module to issue commands to burn in the new software, then reboot. Use FTP to transfer the correct SMboot.bin to the AP, and FPGA (if required). Telnet to the AP to start the SM update function.

MOTOROLA and the Stylized M Logo are registered in the US Patent & Trademark Office. All other product or service names are the property of their respective owners. Motorola, Inc. 2005.
65
When an SM registers to that AP, the SM software version is checked. If the SM is not up to the current release, the SM is updated automatically. Leave auto-update running long enough to catch all SMs (including ones that are powered off overnight). Monitor the status of SMs and confirm all SMs on the AP have been updated. Start a second Telnet session to the AP to turn off updating (the first Telnet session is not directly interruptible at this point). NOTE: This procedure can take up to four minutes per SM to complete, so schedule the update for a time that is least likely to affect the end user.
66
Version 3.2
33
Important considerations: The action list and program files are stored in volatile memory in the AP. If the AP is rebooted before all SMs have upgraded, the action list and program files will be deleted. If this happens, those files must be reinstalled to complete the upgrade of all SMs. After the update command is given, the AP uses information from the action list to manage updates with up to four SMs at any one time, progressing through all registered SMs until all are updated. The update function continues to run on the AP, updating any new SMs that may register, until the update is turned off.

Download the upgrade procedures and files from the Canopy web site. Unzip the files from the download to find the release notes as well as a number of individual files specific to each Canopy module. Place these module-specific files in a directory that is easily accessible by FTP for file transfer. Updates can be performed via the wireless link no need to physically access each unit. (No truck rolls!)
75
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Telnet are the two programs used for the upgrade process. Software is uploaded to each module via FTP. The upgrade is completed via a Telnet session on the module.
76
Version 3.2
38
The two processors in a Canopy module each run their own software. Release 4.0 marks the first time the main processors boot software has changed. The modules Status page now lists the software boot version. Module types and activated features are not changed during an upgrade. You cant change an AP into an APAS (an AP whose Authentication Mode has been turned on using a purchased Feature Activation Key). By attempting to apply the APAS software, you will receive an error message and the software wont be applied. Similarly, you cannot change an APAS into an AP or a BH20 into a BH10, or a BH10 into a BH20.
77
Upgrade each point-to-point link in the network. A point-to-point link is made up of one Backhaul Timing Master and one Backhaul Timing Slave. Choose an Access Point cluster to upgrade. Upgrade all Access Point modules in that cluster (1-6 modules). Next, systematically upgrade each of the Subscriber Modules registered with the newly upgraded cluster. When all Subscriber Modules have been upgraded, move on to the next Access Point cluster.
78
Version 3.2
39
Accessing Subscriber Modules on the Network Subscriber Modules can be set to use either local or public IP addresses on their Configuration page. Subscriber Modules set to use public IP addresses can be directly accessed by an Access Point. Subscriber Modules set to use local IP addresses require the following procedures to upgrade them over the air from an Access Point module. The Access Point module must be upgraded before the Subscriber Module upgrade begins.
Check the Private IP address on the Access Point module using the Configuration page of the web-based interface. (The default is 192.168.101.1) From a command line on a computer attached to the same network as the Access Point module, change directories to the directory where the upgrade files are located. FTP the files to the Access Point module via its LAN IP address. Telnet to the Access Point module. At the prompt type in the command ftp nnn.nnn.nnn.<LUID> (where nnn.nnn.nnn is the first 3 octets of the Private IP address for the Access Point).
79
This starts an FTP session from the Access Point module to the Subscriber Module whose LUID is the number that you placed in the last octet of the private IP address in the FTP command. For example, if a Subscriber Module is registered to the Access Point and receives an LUID 8, then the SM IP address is 192.168.101.8.

Access Points that are to be managed by the Bandwidth Authentication Manager program must be initially enabled with an optional feature key that is keyed to each APs ESN. To obtain these keys, contact your local Canopy distributor and request an APAS form. Fill in the required information and return to your distributor with the appropriate fees. Upon receipt from your distributor, Motorola Canopy Division will generate a special key for each AP requested and will email the keys directly to you. Upon receipt of your keys, upgrade the APs using the procedure outlined on the following slides.

Save the key files on the network where they will have IP connectivity to the APs. Double click on the key file identified by the last five characters of the ESN of the AP to be upgraded. The key file will auto-execute to IP address of 169.254.1.1 and modify the module. A browser window will pop up showing the conversion on the Status screen. The device type will now be listed as APAS. Reboot the module. When the module comes up it will display several extra radio buttons on the Configuration page for authentication.

Enabling ISM
Prior to software release 4.0, Canopy modules operating in the 5.7 GHz band only used channels in the U-NII band. Software release 4.0 added additional channels in the ISM band. As a consequence, Canopy modules that were not shipped with software release 4.0 do not have the ISM channels enabled by default. To enable ISM channels on 5.7 GHz Canopy modules, access the ISM web page on the module using the following URL: http://169.254.1.1/ism.html (using whatever IP address applies to the module). Read the notice on the screen. Check the box Enable ISM Frequencies. contd

Software release 4.0 offers more improvement in RSSI stability and offers the ability to read the power level in dBm on a Canopy module. Module calibration improves reported measurement of RSSI and allows reporting of the power level in dBm, but does not affect or improve module operation or performance. Modules shipped from the factory with release 4.0 installed will be calibrated. Currently deployed modules can be calibrated using data that was recorded at the factory during manufacture and is available for you to enter in the modules. Following are the steps to enter calibration data into the modules.

Make a list of the MAC addresses (Electronic Serial Numbers) of the Access Points, Subscriber Modules and Backhaul Modules you want to calibrate. Go to http://www.canopywireless.com/calibrate.php and enter the MAC addresses previously recorded, along with the specified contact information, including email address. An email containing the factory calibration data, three values per MAC address, will be sent to you automatically. Prior to calibration, the modules must be upgraded to Release 4.0. You must upgrade first before you enter calibration data. When entering calibration data into an AP, BH or SM, go to the modules Calibration web page, which is http://ip-address/mac.html, where ipaddress is the IP address assigned to the module. Enter the three calibration values: Measured RSSI, Radio Slicing Value, and Power Level. The Power Level is entered with a minus sign. Click Store Calibration Settings to Flash, then click Reboot.
95
It is not possible to change the MAC address and Tx Calibration Constant. These were set and locked at the factory. The calibration settings can be changed, if you have entered them incorrectly. On calibrated modules, the RSSI value on the Status page will be displayed in black instead of red, indicating it is now a calibrated value. Also, next to the RSSI value, the power level in dBm will be displayed. Additionally, the temperature of the module can now be read through SNMP, or by going to the Extended Stats page and then selecting the Status page. The temperature displayed is the internal temperature of the module.
