Mobile signal booster: What is it?
The working principle of these devices is quite simple. You need to install an antenna on the roof of your building. It will catch a stable signal. Then, with the help of a cable, this signal will be sent to a booster. And after that, the improved signal will be transferred to a small indoor antenna that will be responsible for sending the signal to your mobile devices.
Step-by-step guide
The first thing that you need to do is to fix an outdoor antenna and to do it correctly. Your antenna should be directed to the side where your operator’s cell tower is located. By the way, the antenna that we use can be also built on your own (there are a lot of instructions on how to do it available on the internet).
The exact location of cell towers can be checked in different mobile apps like Netmonitor.
Then it’s important to connect your installed outdoor antenna with a cable. For example, it can be a cable used for satellite television or any other coaxial cable.
Now it’s time to fix our indoor antenna in a room. It can be rather convenient to fix it near the ceiling.
It can be a handmade antenna or an antenna for a WiFi router (it will perfectly suit a booster intended for improving 3G or 4G signal). This antenna can be of one of the following types:
Theoretically, even if you just connect your indoor and outdoor antennas with a cable, you will get a signal. However, it won’t significantly help you as the coverage of the improved signal will be too small. For ensuring better coverage you need to build a booster.
To create such an element fully on your own will be rather expensive and difficult. That’s why you can buy an electronic board used for boosters (you can choose different kinds of these boards to improve the desired types of a mobile signal).
It’s very simple to connect it. While an outdoor antenna should be connected via a cable, an indoor antenna can be connected directly to the board. You will also need to use a charger 5V.
Now you can plug in your device.
It’s very important to note that to ensure the perfect functioning of this booster and avoid errors in its work, you need to install your antennas correctly. First of all, the vertical distance between both antennas must be at least 10 m. Moreover, your outdoor antenna shouldn’t be directed to the side where the indoor antenna is installed.
