Microconnect Distributed Antennae (MDA) Infrastructure) on existing street furniture to provide a system that could be shared by all mobile phone providers, for both 2G and 3G Services.
Members acknowledged the opportunity for the County Council to exercise its community leadership role in contributing to the decision making process about the possible location(s) of the proposed MDA Infrastructure.
It was also recognised that while the provision of Microconnect Distributed Antennae might not require planning permission due to their size, location and discreet nature, this proposal represented a means of the County Council influencing the provision of such equipment and ensuring a uniform approach wherever it was introduced.

 Microconnect Distributed Antennae   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Microconnect Distributed Antennae (MDA) are small-cell local area (200–300 metre range) transmitter-receivers usually fitted to lampposts and other street furniture in order to provide Wireless LAN, GSM and GPRS connectivity.
They are therefore less obtrusive than the usual masts and antennae used for these purposes and meet with less public opposition.
Each antenna point contains a 63-65 GHz wireless unit alongside a large memory store providing proxy and cache services.

 Ringing the changes
The new antennae are far less unsightly than large mobile phone masts, and are environmentally friendly.
Each mini-antenna, which has the capacity to be used by several mobile phone companies at the same time, emits between 1,000 and a million times less radiation than a mobile phone.
The city council is working with BT on the 'microconnect distributed antennas' project.

 Westminster to open Wi-Fi network to hoi polloi | The Register
BT will also install a series of its Microconnect Distributed Antennae (MDAs) in the zone, which it claims will significantly boost 3G reception, as well as regular GSM/GPRS connectivity.
BT sells access to the MDA network to the mobile phone operators, potentially sharing the revenue received with the Council.
MDAs can be unobtrusively attached to lampposts, street signs, CCTV poles and other infrastructure owned by the Council, which governs the installation of mobile phone masts.

So we have the MDA base station starting at 8 times MORE powerful than a mobile phone (or 28 times if operating at 7W), to 1000 times MORE powerful that a typical phone call.
Also, their antenna gain is at least 5 times, so for EIRP multiply the figures by another 5.
The trouble is, 7W, with some gain in the MDA antenna, can result in stronger signals in nearby bedrooms that a large rooftop mast would give.

Access Points in an extended service set are connected by a distribution system.
A distribution system is usually a wired LAN but can be a wireless LAN.
An access point is often a hub or router that has an antenna built in to transmit and receive the radio frequency and bridges a wireless network to a wired Ethernet network.

On the basis of the information that was then available the Council also agreed to advise the Cabinet of its relative preference for the respective housing distribution options as follows: option 1 – 23 votes and option 2 – 21 votes, with 20 abstentions, and 4 voting against both options.
This requires a greater density of antennae in urban areas than is available at present.
The report recommends that the Council should enter into an agreement with BT for the provision of the antennae, subject to satisfactory resolution of contract, planning and environmental issues.

 Computer Buyer: Focus: Operating Systems: News: BT signs up 3 for hidden network points
BT has announced that 3 has become the first mobile operator to take advantage of its new shared antennae system for city centres and 'heritage sites'.
BT's Microconnect Distributed Antenna (MDA) technology is designed to enable mobile network operators to share small, low-powered access points that can be concealed in existing street furniture such as road signs and lamp posts.
'The MDA system saves duplication by mobile network operators such as 3 by using discreet shared, low-power antennas on existing street furniture,' said BT Director Wales, Ann Beynon.

Almost any computer with a wireless card and wired connection to Internet can be set up as an Access Point, but today one can buy dedicated boxes cheaply.
Those boxes usually looks like a HUB with antenna, bridges a wireless network to a wired Ethernet network.
Administration of the access point (like setting SSID, putting up encryption, etc) is usually done through a web interface.

The council's Executive Member for Customer and Corporate Services, Councillor Dave Antrobus, said:- "This is a groundbreaking solution to the increasing number of mobile phone masts in Liverpool.
Many people have concerns over the health and safety issues surrounding mobile phone masts, and this project will help tackle this, by providing more environmentally friendly alternatives which emit a tiny fraction of the radiation of large masts.
And with up to five mobile operators sharing a single antenna, we are hoping there will be a significant reduction in applications for individual phone masts.
