2.1 Introduction
l Triple-mode base station deployment l UMTS baseband capacity expansion
Overview
In BBU Interconnection, two BBUs are connected using a BBU interconnection signal cable. The BBU Interconnection feature applies to the following scenarios:
With BBU Interconnection, a base station can be deployed in the following modes: GU+L, GL+U, or G*U*L+G*U*L. Two interconnected BBUs belong to the same base station. A single BBU supports a maximum of 6 UMTS baseband boards. BBU Interconnection enables two BBUs to support a maximum of 11 UMTS baseband boards, enhancing the UMTS baseband capacity of a base station. SingleRAN8.0 supports only UMTS baseband interconnection.
2.2 Upgrade to Triple-Mode Base Stations

2.2.1 BBU Slots
A BBU has 11 slots, as shown in Figure 2-1. Figure 2-1 BBU slots
2.2.2 Cable Connections

Figure 2-2 shows the cable connections between the UCIU and UMPT. The UCIU can be installed in any of slots 4, 5, 0, and 1 in BBU 0. The slot priority is as follows: slot 4 > slot 5 >
2 Overview
slot 0 > slot 1. A UMPT must be configured in BBU 1. One of ports M0 through M4 on the UCIU in BBU 0 is connected to the CI port on the UMPT in BBU 1 using a BBU interconnection signal cable. Ports M0 through M4 are prioritized from the highest to the lowest. Figure 2-2 Interconnected UCIU and UMPT in two BBUs in a triple-mode base station
In the above figures, BBU 0 is the root BBU and BBU 1 is the leaf BBU. The root and leaf BBUs are determined by the hardware plan of each site. The BBU configured with the UCIU is regarded as the root BBU. A BBU interconnection signal cable is logically called CTRLLNK for a NodeB or an eNodeB and is logically called BTSCTRLLNK for a GBTS. By default, BBU 1 is the local node and BBU 0 is the upper-level node of a CTRLLNK or BTSCTRLLNK. SingleRAN8.0 supports a maximum of two CTRLLNKs for a NodeB or an eNodeB and two BTSCTRLLNKs for a GBTS.
2.2.3 Application Scenarios

Table 2-1 lists the application scenarios of triple-mode base stations. Table 2-1 Application scenarios of triple-mode base stations Mode GU+L GL+U G*U*L+ G*U*L BBU0 Mode GU GL G*U*L BBU1 Mode L U G*U*L
Issue 02 (2013-07-30)

NOTE
2 Overview
In this document, G, U, and L stand for GSM, UMTS, and LTE, respectively. In a co-MPT base station where two BBUs are interconnected, the primary and secondary main control boards are configured in BBU 0 and BBU 1, respectively. The modes configured in BBU 1 must also be configured in BBU 0. GSM cannot be configured in BBU 1. In triple-mode base station scenarios, the mode of boards in a BBU must be consistent with the mode of the main control board in the BBU. For details about board configurations for each mode, see hardware descriptions of the relevant base stations.
2.2.4 Restrictions
When UCIU+UMPT interconnection is used in a triple-mode base station, the following restrictions apply: l l l GSM boards must be installed in BBU 0. Monitoring devices must be connected to BBU 0. Boards in the same BBU must have the same cabinet and subrack numbers. Boards in different BBUs must have different cabinet numbers or both different cabinet and subrack numbers. Otherwise, common boards, such as the UCIU, cannot function.
2.2.5 Supported Features and Functions

In triple-mode base station scenarios, the two BBUs are connected by a BBU interconnection signal cable. The BBUs exchange control data, transmission data, and clock signals. Therefore, common transmission (co-transmission), software-defined radio (SDR), and a common clock are supported between the two BBUs. Two interconnected BBUs are regarded as one base station in the radio access network topology. The supported features are as follows: l Co-Transmission When two BBUs are interconnected, the BBUs support co-transmission between two or more modes. For details, see the Common Transmission Feature Parameter Description. l Common Clock When two BBUs are interconnected, the BBUs support a common clock between two or more modes. For details, see the Common Clock Feature Parameter Description. l Inter-BBU SDR
The inter-BBU SDR function is supported when two BBUs are interconnected. In this scenario, a multi-mode RF module must be connected to both BBUs.Figure 2-3 shows an example of inter-BBU SDR, wherein BBU0 supports GSM, BBU1 supports LTE, and the GL RXU is connected to BBU0 and BBU1.
Issue 02 (2013-07-30)
2 Overview
Figure 2-3 Inter-BBU SDR
2.3 UMTS Baseband Capacity Expansion

2.3.1 Cable Connections
In the UCIU+UMPT mode, the WBBPfs in the two BBUs can be connected to exchange baseband data. Figure 2-4 shows the inter-BBU cable connections for UMTS baseband capacity expansion. Figure 2-4 Cables connections for UMTS baseband capacity expansion
A UMTS baseband board and a UMTS main control board are installed in both BBU 0 and BBU 1, and the two UMTS baseband boards are interconnected using a BBU interconnection signal cable. Among UMTS baseband boards, only the WBBPf provides an HEI port for UMTS baseband interconnection. The WBBPf can be installed only in slot 2 or slot 3 (preferred) in either BBU. A BBU interconnection signal cable between WBBPf boards transmits baseband data and expands baseband resources. A BBU interconnection signal cable between WBBPf boards cannot be used interchangeably with that for UCIU+UMPT or UMPT+UMPT interconnection. A BBU interconnection signal cable between WBBPf boards is logically called BBPLNK. Either end of a BBPLNK can be configured as the link head. It is recommended that you configure the end on the BBU 0 side as the link head. SRAN8.1 supports only one BBPLNK.

NOTE
2 Overview
A CTRLLNK (for NodeB/eNodeB) or BTSCTRLLNK (for GBTS) must be set up before a BBPLINK.
2.3.2 Application Scenarios

Table 2-2 lists the application scenarios of UMTS baseband capacity expansion. Table 2-2 Application scenarios of UMTS baseband capacity expansion Mode GU+UL GU+U U+U BBU0 Mode GU GU U BBU1 Mode UL U U
In these scenarios, both BBU0 and BBU1 have UMTS main control boards.
NOTE
For details about board configurations for each mode, see hardware descriptions of the relevant base stations.
2.3.3 Restrictions
Both BBU 0 and BBU 1 must be configured with one UMTS main control board to expand the UMTS baseband capacity, with the UMTS main control board in BBU 0 as primary and that in BBU 1 as secondary. If the ACT indicator on a main control board is steady on, this board is the primary board. If the ACT indicator on a main control board is steady off, this board is the secondary board. The following local operations can be performed only on the primary main control board: l l l l Software upgrades and data configurations using a USB flash drive Local operations on the LMT Clock test Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) testing using a USB flash drive
In addition, the following restrictions apply: l l l Monitoring devices must be connected to BBU 0. In a NodeB deployed using the plug-and-play function, a UMPT working in UMTS mode must be configured in BBU 0. CPRI fiber optic cables can be connected to any WBBP in either BBU. It is recommended that all CPRI fiber optic cables be connected to the WBBP in BBU 0. For details about CPRI cable connections, see the hardware description of the related base stations. The secondary UMTS main control board in BBU 1 does not support co-transmission.
Issue 02 (2013-07-30)
2 Overview
Boards in the same BBU must have the same subrack and slot numbers. Boards in different BBUs must have different subrack and slot numbers. Otherwise, common boards, such as the UCIU, cannot function. Inter-BBU baseband resource sharing is supported only in the downlink. BBU interconnection cannot enable two NodeBs to be upgraded to one NodeB. Inter-BBU multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is not supported. The main and diversity RRUs serving MIMO cells must be connected to the same BBU. RRUs serving multi-RRU cells, distributed cells, or two cells in a DC-HSUPA or DCHSDPA group must be connected to the same BBU.

Impact on the Network
4.1 Impact on System Capacity

BBU Interconnection does not affect system capacity when a triple-mode base station is used. A single-mode base station supports a maximum of 11 WBBPs after its UMTS baseband capacity is expanded using BBU Interconnection. For details about the WBBP capacity specifications, see the hardware description of the related base stations. For details about the capacity specifications after baseband capacity expansion, see 3900 Series Base Station Technical Description.
4.2 Impact on Network Performance

No impact.

Engineering Guidelines
5.1 When to Use BBU Interconnection

BBU Interconnection is used to upgrade base stations to triple-mode base stations and for UMTS baseband capacity expansion.
5.2 Information to Be Collected 5.3 Network Planning

The following network planning needs to be performed before BBU Interconnection can be deployed: l l l l l Software versions Subracks and hardware configurations for the BBUs Transmission modes CPRI-based topologies Clocks
5.3.1 Software Versions

The software version must be SingleRAN7.0 or later.
5.3.2 Subracks and Hardware Configurations for the BBUs

For the installation locations and hardware configurations of BBU 0 and BBU 1 in each cabinet when a new multimode base station is deployed, see the hardware description of the related base stations. In UCIU+UMPT interconnection, the UCIU is controlled by only one single-mode main control board. Otherwise, ALM-26274 Inter-System Board Object Configuration Conflict is reported.
UCIU-related alarms are reported only to the single-mode main control board controlling the UCIU. When deploying a new Multimode base station, you are advised to comply with the following rules to set the control mode for the UCIU: l l l In UMTS baseband capacity expansion scenarios, UMTS is preferred to control the UCIU. In other scenarios, the mode priority descends from GSM, to UMTS, and then to LTE. In capacity expansion scenarios, it is recommended that the controlling mode of the UCIU remain unchanged. Alternatively, you can modify the controlling mode based on information provided in Table 5-1.
Table 5-1 lists the mode recommended for controlling the UCIU in each scenario. Table 5-1 Mode recommended for controlling the UCIU in each scenario Mode BBU0 Mode BBU1 Mode Mode Recommended for Controlling the UCIU U U U G G N/A
GU+UL GU+U U+U GU+L GL+U G*U*L+G*U*L
GU GU U GU GL G*U*L
UL U U L U G*U*L
During new Multimode base station deployment, the mode deployment order remains unchanged no matter whether the mode controlling the UCIU is first deployed. However, it is recommended that the mode controlling the UCIU be first deployed. By doing this, UCIU-related alarms can be reported in time.
5.3.3 Transmission Modes

With BBU Interconnection, a base station supports the following: l l Independent transmission Inter-BBU co-transmission
Independent Transmission
In a triple-mode base station deployment scenario, each mode is connected to the transport network through its own port and is deployed in the same way as that in a single-mode base station.
In UMTS baseband capacity expansion scenarios, both BBUs have a UMTS main control board, and either BBU can be connected to the RNC through the Iub interface. However, it is recommended that BBU 0 be connected to the RNC.
Inter-BBU Co-Transmission
For engineering guidelines about co-transmission, see Common Transmission Feature Parameter Description. A multimode base station supports the following co-transmission modes to implement inter-BBU co-transmission: l UMPT-based co-transmission through backplane interconnection All modes except the one controlling the UMPT send their data to the UMPT through BBU backplanes and BBU interconnection signal cables. The co-transmission port on the UMPT is connected to the transport network, and the link between the port and transport network carries data of all the modes in the multimode base station. When deploying a multimode base station, first deploy the mode controlling the UMPT. Otherwise, other modes cannot be deployed. l UTRPc-based co-transmission through backplane interconnection All modes send their data to the UTRPc through BBU backplanes and BBU interconnection signal cables. The co-transmission port on the UTRPc is connected to the transport network, and the link between the port and transport network carries data of all the modes in the multimode base station. When deploying a multimode base station, first deploy the mode controlling the UTRPc. Otherwise, other modes cannot be deployed. In new multimode base station deployment scenarios, the UTRPc has the following configuration restrictions: l l The UTRPc can be controlled by only one mode whose main control board is installed in the same BBU as the UTRPc. When deploying a new multimode base station, it is recommended that you deploy the control mode of a UTRPc following a priority descending from LTE, to UMTS, and then to GSM. By default, the UTRPc is controlled by UMTS before delivery.
Table 5-2 lists the mode recommended for controlling the UTRPc and the related mode deployment order when an Multimode base station works in different modes.

5.3.4 CPRI-based Topologies

With Single-Mode RF Modules
If single-mode RF modules are configured, chain, ring, and star topologies are supported. For UMTS baseband expansion, the ring topology is not supported between two BBUs, as shown in Figure 5-1.
Issue 02 (2013-07-30)

5.3.5 Clocks
With BBU Interconnection, a base station uses one of the following clocks: l l Independent reference clock Common reference clock
Independent Reference Clock

In triple-mode base station deployment scenarios, the reference clock for each mode is the same as that in a single-mode base station. WBBPfIn UMTS baseband capacity expansion scenarios, both BBU 0 and BBU 1 have a WBBPf. The reference clock can be configured in either BBU.
Common Reference Clock

The common reference clock can be configured in either BBU 0 or BBU 1. The BBU configured with the common reference clock shares control data and clock signals with the other BBU through a BBU interconnection signal cable and the BBU backplane. For engineering guidelines about the common reference clock, see Common Reference Clock Parameter Description.

5.4.2 Data Preparation

Upgrade to Triple-Mode Base Stations
Perform the following steps to plan the data: Step 1 Designate BBU0 and BBU1. Plan the cabinet number and subrack number for each BBU. If BBU0 and BBU1 are configured in the same cabinet, their subrack numbers must be different. If they are configured in different cabinets, their subrack numbers can be the same. Step 2 Plan the control links. ----End The control link is logically CTRLLNK for NodeB or eNodeB, and BTSCTRLLNK for GBTS. Physically, the control link is the BBU interconnection signal cable between the UCIU and UMPT.
The two ends of each CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK must be designated. By default, BBU1 is the local node and BBU0 is the upper-level node. The number of each CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK for the base station must be unique. The link numbers of all the CTRLLNKs/BTSCTRLLNKs need to be planned. A CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK needs to be added for each mode of the base station.

Step 1 Check the status of the Mx indicator on the UCIU or the status of the CI indicator on the UMPT to determine whether CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK is operating correctly.
l If the Mx indicator is green, CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK is operating correctly. l If the CI indicator is green, CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK is operating correctly. Step 2 Check the status of the HEI indicator on the WBBPf to determine whether BBPLNK is operating correctly. If the HEI indicator is green, BBPLNK is operating correctly. ----End
NOTE
Mx can be the M0, M1, M2, M3, or M4 port on the UCIU.
At the Remote End

l On the M2000 maintenance console or the LMT, you can run the LST CTRLLNK/ BTSCTRLLNK command to query the cabinet number, subrack number, slot number, and port number at both ends of the BBU interconnection signal cable.
NOTE
The two BBUs are classified into main subrack and extension subrack. If the subrack number of one end of the BBU interconnection signal cable is 0, the mode at this end is deployed in the main subrack. If the subrack number of this end is 1, the BBU at the other end is the main subrack.
l l
Run the MML command DSP CTRLLNKSTAT/BTSCTRLLNKSTAT to check whether CTRLLNK/BTSCTRLLNK is operating correctly. Run the MML command DSP BBPLNK command to check whether BBPLNK is configured as planned.
