I believe that your duplexer may have a bad internal connection, possibly at a fingerstock contact. In my case the problem was solved by replacing the duplexer. I believe the problem was caused by tuning the duplexer under power rather than with a network analyser. This occured many years ago, so my memory may be faulty.

[Repeater-Builder] Noise Level on a Duplexer
Hello Everybody, Good day. We have developed a Duplexer to combine to two signals form two systems for in-building application. The Dupluxer (or combiner) has specifications of 1.7dB insertion loss and 60dB isolation. When we set up the system and power on the two systems, the combiner works fine. However, we notice that the noise level (up link) on the two systems will slowly increase, and until 3~4 days later, the noise level has increased to -80~-60dBm level. We then power down the systems for 3 hours, and power them up again. The systems work fine again. Anybody could help? Best Regards, Kent New Email names for you!

Dear Nate, They are TETRA TETRAPOL systems. It seems like our Duplexer that is causing the problem, as the TETRA system bypasses the Combiner, the noise is removed. At first, we were thinking it is the heat problem, but the system is installed in an air-condition room at 25 deg C, and the Duplexer is not heated up.

This is the peak envelope power that can be present at any one time in the amplifier with 16 signals present. So the amplifier would need to be able to handle a little over +24dBm with a single signal (256mW) With only 2 signals of 1 mW each the peak envelope power would be 2 squared (2x2) or 4 mW that the amplifier would need to handle or +6dBm. It is the number of signals squared times the power of one of the signals assuming that all the signal levels are the same.

[Repeater-Builder] Bi-directional Amplifer
Good day everybody, For an off-air repeater, we normal use bi-direction amplifier (BDA). A BDA is constructed using two amplifiers for uplink and downlink, interconnected with two duplexers (or circulators) at the front end. In order to prevent the BDA from looping oscillation, the duplexer (circulators) must provide sufficient isolation. We have built such BDA; however, we face the oscillation problem. We are thinking of breaking the BDA into two parts: uplink and downlink. And we amplify uplink and downlink separately. In this way, we need four duplexers (or circulators). Would this method work?
