Application Overview

Basements and underground car parks are shielded by concrete and soil, so outdoor signals rarely reach them. A dedicated indoor distribution system is usually required, with a donor antenna on the roof or at grade and a network of ceiling antennas below ground.

No outdoor signal below ground
Concrete walls and ceilings blocking propagation
Long ramps and corridors
Need for coverage at EV charging and payment points
Basement and parking signal coverage

Typical Installation Layout

A typical installation uses an outdoor donor antenna, a booster or fiber repeater, a distribution network and indoor service antennas.

  1. 1

    Install the donor antenna at grade or on the roof where the outdoor signal is usable.

  2. 2

    Run a low-loss feeder to the booster in the basement technical room.

  3. 3

    Distribute signal through ceiling antennas along drive lanes and parking bays.

Installation notes

  • Use fire-rated cable where required by local codes.
  • Seal penetrations between floors against water and dust.
  • Plan antenna positions around columns and ducts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many antennas are needed for a 5,000 m² car park?

A common starting point is one ceiling antenna per 300–500 m², adjusted for ceiling height, columns and drive lanes. A site survey confirms the final count.

Can the system cover ramps and entrances?

Yes. Add directional antennas at ramps and entrances where the coverage transitions between outdoor and indoor.

Is a fiber repeater needed for a large underground site?

If cable runs exceed the loss budget or the site has multiple separated zones, a fiber repeater is often more practical than long coaxial runs.

Can the system support emergency calls?

Voice coverage depends on the donor signal and system design. For emergency call requirements, confirm the applicable standard with local authorities.
