l l

Benefits of the NodeB

The NodeB has a cutting-edge modular design of multiple mode and forms, thus adaptive to various installation scenarios. This effectively addresses the requirements for integrated development of a multi-mode mobile network, the broadband solution, and green network rollout, and enables the construction of a future-oriented network and smooth evolution to the Long Term Evolution (LTE).

Solution of Integrated Multiple Technologies


With the unified platform, modular design, and flexible combination of the basic modules and auxiliary devices, the NodeB can present in multiple forms. With this solution, BBUs and RF modules of different modes (GSM/UMTS/LTE) can be placed in one cabinet, and cabinets of different modes can be installed in stacking mode. The UMTS RF module supports smooth evolution to the LTE from the perspective of hardware and supports the UMTS/LTE dual-mode NodeB through software upgrade in the same frequency band.

Broadband Solution
l

The outstanding performance of the RRU3804 and WRFU ensures wide coverage, high throughput, and reduced number of sites.

The RRU3804 and WRFU adopt a multi-carrier technology which features 20 MHz bandwidth and 4-carrier configuration. A single RRU3804 supports the 60 W output power at the antenna connector and a single WRFU supports 80 W at the antenna connector. The HSPA service enjoys high bandwidth and short delay. The data rate of the HSPA service can peak 14.4 Mbit/s in the downlink. The data rate of the HSPA service can peak 5.76 Mbit/s over the Uu interface at the physical layer in the uplink.

The NodeB supports the High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) service in full rate mode.

The IP-based switch core of the NodeB allows operators to obtain higher bandwidth and have easier ways in capacity expansion and network adjustment by utilizing the existing IP transmission resources, thereby curtailing the cost for network deployment.

2 Benefits of the NodeB

NodeB Product Description

The NodeB can provide the Fast Ethernet (FE) port at the 100 Mbit/s externally, and the IP Radio Access Network (RAN) can reuse the existing IP transmission resources on the Iub interface. Apart from being more cost-effective than the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)based network, the IP-based network provides the multi-access mode and sufficient transmission bandwidth to satisfy the data service with high data rate.

Construction of a Green Network


The compact and modular design, innovative PA, and power consumption management are the keys to a green communication network that features energy conservation and requires less equipment rooms.
l

The RF modules of the NodeB adopt the advanced Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) and ADoherty technologies to raise the power amplification rate to 40%. Thus, the power consumption of the entire NodeB is lowered. The reduced power consumption of the cabinet macro NodeB not only avoids extra electricity expense but also lessens the investment in power supply, backup batteries, air conditioners, and heat exchangers.

As the most compact macro NodeB in the industry, the cabinet macro NodeB takes up a small footprint. The RF cabinet of the BTS3900A is of direct-ventilation design. In comparison with the traditional macro NodeB, power consumption of the BTS3900A is lowered by 40%.

The DBS3900 is characterized by separate baseband and RF modules and distributed installation, which facilitates transportation, configuration, and installation.

The BBU3900 of the distributed NodeB is characterized by a small footprint, easy installation, and low power consumption. In addition, the BBU3900 can be placed in the spare space of an existing site. The RRU, small and light, supports installation near the antenna, thus preventing feeder loss. Working in natural heat dissipation mode, the RRU has no fans. The high reliability of the RRU reduces the routine maintenance cost.

The NodeBs of all types can share the baseband modules, RF modules, and power systems, thereby saving the cost for spare parts and maintenance.

The earlier-mentioned features of the NodeB can fully address the concern over site acquisition for operators, expedite network rollout, decrease occupation of resources such as manpower, power supply, and space, and lower the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Smooth Evolution to the Future-Oriented Radio Network


The unified modular design of the NodeB helps the evolution to the future-oriented radio network, transformation of global operators, and deployment of new radio technologies.
l

The NodeB enables different-mode modules plugged in the same cabinet to support different modes or different-mode modules inserted into the same cabinet to support multimode application. The UMTS RF modules support HSPA+ in terms of hardware, which enables other modules of the existing NodeB to be shared to the maximum limit and facilitates smooth evolution to the LTE.

The outdoor distributed NodeB DBS3900 fully addresses operators' concern over site selection and facilitates network planning and optimization. The DBS3900 enables operators to efficiently deploy a high-performance 3G network with a low TCO because less manpower, electrical power, and space are required during network rollout. With the continuous capacity expansion of the mobile network, site selection for the NodeB has become a bottleneck during network deployment. Solutions to this problem, such as the 2G/3G co-siting or site reselection, become increasingly difficult to implement and require additional investment. The baseband processing unit BBU3900 of the distributed NodeB is characterized by a small footprint, easy installation, and low power consumption. In addition, the BBU can be installed in the spare space of an existing site. The RRU also has a compact design and light weight, and it can be installed close to the antenna to decrease feeder loss and improve system coverage. The distributed NodeB has flexible applications to meet the requirement of fast network construction in different scenarios.

Integrated Application with BBU3900 + RRU + APM


For a new 3G site, if only the AC power is supplied and backup power is required, the application scenario of BBU3900 + RRU + APM can be used to substitute for the outdoor macro NodeB. Figure 4-1 shows the typical configuration of the BBU3900 + RRU + APM. The details are as follows:

Features of the NodeB

Featuring the cutting-edge modular design of multiple forms and modes, the NodeB enjoys various advanced features and functions.

The NodeB that uses the Huawei IP switch-based platform supports the GSM/UMTS dualmode application, HSPA+, and smooth evolution to the LTE. The distributed NodeB, cabinet macro NodeB, and compact mini NodeB share the baseband and RF modules. The three types of basic modules (BBU, RF, and WRFU) can form different NodeB products that apply to different scenarios. This reduces cost in equipment and maintenance. The NodeB supports the dual-star GE IP switch technology, thus enabling more powerful capability in internal data exchange and satisfying the requirements of increasing HSPA+ and LTE data volume in the future. The BBU3900 provides eight slots, in which the boards or modules are swappable, and supports smooth capacity expansion and evolution. The RF module integrates the duplexer and the Transceiver Unit (TRU), thus enhancing integrity of RF parts and meeting future requirements for a compact, high-efficiency, and low-cost NodeB. A minimized NodeB cabinet is easy to transport and install, and the stacking installation mode of NodeB cabinets lowers the requirement for footprint.

High Integrity and Large Capacity


l

The BBU3900 contains highly integrated chips and features large capacity. A single BBU3900 supports 24 cells, with 1,536 UL CEs and 1,536 DL CEs. It also supports HSDPA and HSUPA services. A single RRU or WRFU supports the 4-carrier configuration. When the capacity of the NodeB is expanded from 1 x 1 to 1 x 4 or from 3 x 1 to 3 x 4, no extra RRU or WRFU is required.

High Performance

NodeB Product Description

The WRFU supports 80 W output power and the RRU3804 supports 60 W output power. The power amplification efficiency is boosted to 27.6%. The NodeB supports the open-loop TX diversity and closed-loop TX diversity to enhance downlink coverage and capacity.

ATM/IP Dual-Stack Protocol


ATM
l

The NodeB supports the User-Network Interface (UNI) mode when transmission resources are inadequate and traffic is low. The NodeB supports the Inverse Multiplexing on ATM (IMA) mode when there are rich transmission resources. This mode features high reliability, high-speed transmission, and low transmission delay. The NodeB supports the fractional ATM mode.

IP The IP transport, based on IPs, supports the transmission of various data services on low-rate links. In this mode, the IP transmission resources are fully utilized and operators' investment is dramatically reduced.
l

Native IP transport is supported without requirements for additional hardware. Compared with the PWE3 technology, native IP transport enjoys higher transmission efficiency and lower investment because the PWE3 external device is not required. IP over E1 is supported to fully utilize the E1 resources of the existing network and to provide a complete solution of IP transport. The fractional Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) technology is supported. The ATM and IP dual stack is supported to protect operators' early investment in ATM transport. The compression and multiplexing technologies, such as the multiplexing of PPP header compression, PPPMUX, and IP Header Compression (IPHC), are supported to help achieve high transmission bandwidth efficiency over E1 ports. With the solution of IPHC + PPP compression + PPPMUX, the E1 transmission rate of the 12.2 kbit/s voice service rises by up to 37%. The FP MUX is supported to reduce the number of Medium Access Control (MAC) headers by multiplexing packets and to raise the transmission efficiency over FE ports. With this technology, the FE transmission rate of the 12.2 kbit/s voice service rises by up to 40%. Hybrid transport is supported, which enables different transmission paths to be allocated for services with different QoS requirements. For example, hybrid transport enables realtime services to travel on electrical ports, such as E1/T1 ports, and non-real-time services to travel on Ethernet ports.

NodeB Product Description

The cascading of RET antennas and controlling the tilt of the 2G RET antenna through the 3G site are supported.

Same Band Antenna Sharing


l

To implement the same band antenna sharing with low insertion loss, the Same-band Antenna Sharing Unit (SASU) and Same-band Antenna Sharing Adapter (SASA) are introduced to reduce cost in network deployment. The SASU applies to two scenarios: the antenna shared by 2G and 3G systems and the antenna shared by two 3G systems. The SASU that enables two different systems at the same band to share one antenna system is an important part of the same band antenna sharing solution. The SASU can greatly reduce the cost and time of the 3G network construction. The SASU supports 900 MHz and 2,100 MHz frequency bands. The SASA is another important part of the same band antenna sharing solution. Although it brings an insertion loss of 0.8 dB in the downlink, it can integrate transmit carriers from two antennas into one antenna, without affecting GSM network performance.

l l

Operation and Maintenance


The NodeB provides two OM platforms: Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) and centralized management center (M2000).
l l

The NodeB supports local maintenance, remote maintenance, and reverse maintenance. The NodeB supports the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) and the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). When data is not configured or the NodeB is faulty, the NodeB automatically sets up an OM channel to enhance system reliability and to perform remote troubleshooting. The NodeB supports configuration baseline which simplifies the configuration rollback process and enhances reliability of configuration rollback. The NodeB provides the intelligent out-of-service function. Before the NodeB is out of service, the UE is handed over to another 2G or 3G cell when the NodeB gradually reduces the cell pilot power. Such a handover prevents service disruption. The NodeB provides the RRU topology scanning function, which enables automatic monitoring of the RRU topology in real time to help reduce manual intervention. The NodeB provides the complete system self-detection function, thus local commissioning is not required.

The equipment in such a room works in a relatively adverse environment, and may be damaged due to fire, water immersion, or floods. To help you handle such emergencies, the NodeB provides a complete environment alarm management system.

The functions of alarm management are as follows:


l l l l l l l

Alarm testing Alarm reporting Alarm shielding Alarm affirming Alarm pre-processing Alarm correlation processing Alarm help information processing

Security Management
The operation rights for maintenance personnel are divided into multiple levels when both the NodeB and the M2000 are applied. This ensures that the running equipment is free from misoperation.

Environment Monitoring
The environment monitoring system provides customized solutions regarding door control, infrared, smoke, water damage, humidity, and temperature monitoring.

Reliability of the NodeB

The NodeB features a new system architecture and a complete redundancy design. In addition, the NodeB takes advantage of Huawei large-capacity ASIC chips to enhance the integrity of modules and reduce the number of parts, thus significantly improving the system reliability.

The NodeB has the reliability design such as the load-sharing and redundancy configuration, and adopts the optimized fault detection/isolation technology of boards and systems, thus greatly improving the reliability of the system.

The main control board, transmission board, power supply unit, and fan unit in the NodeB all support redundancy. The BBU supports load sharing. The CPRI port that connects the BBU and the RF modules supports the ring topology. When one CPRI link becomes faulty, the NodeB can automatically switch to another CPRI link. The key data such as software versions and data configuration files in the NodeB supports redundancy.

Reliability design The NodeB can automatically self-detect and diagnose hardware failures and environment problems, and then report alarms. It also attempts to conduct self-healing to clear faults. If the self-healing fails, the fault is automatically isolated.

Hardware Reliability
Anti-Misinsertion function of boards When a board is wrongly inserted into the slot of another board, the mistaken board cannot be connected to the backplane, and in this way, the equipment is free from damage. Overtemperature protection When the ambient temperature of the PA on the RF module is too high, the NodeB generates overtemperature alarms and immediately shuts down the PA to prevent it from damage.

NodeB Product Description

The NodeB has wide-range voltage and surge protection functions. The NodeB provides power failure protection for programs and data. The boards protect power supply against overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection of positive and negative poles. The hierarchical shutdown is supported. The outdoor NodeB performs shutdown for the PA based on the backup power capacity.

Surge protection design The NodeB takes surge protection measures on AC/DC power sockets, input/output signal ports (E1 port, interconnection port, and Boolean alarm port), antenna connectors, and GPS ports.

Software Reliability
The software reliability is embodied in the redundancy of key files and data and the powerful error tolerance of software. Software redundancy The NodeB provides redundancy for key files and data, such as software versions and data configuration files, to prevent them from damage and to ensure the normal running of the NodeB.
l

Redundancy of software versions: The NodeB provides separate redundancy for software versions including the BootROM software version to avoid version problems. If one version becomes faulty, the NodeB can switch to the backup version. Redundancy of data configuration files: The NodeB provides separate redundancy for data configuration files to avoid interrupting the running of the files. If the current file becomes faulty, the NodeB can keep working properly with the backup file.

Error tolerance capability When the software is faulty, it does not affect the entire NodeB because the system is capable of self-healing. The software error tolerance of the NodeB covers the following aspects:
l

Scheduled detection of key resources: The NodeB performs occupancy check on software resources. If resource hang-up occurs due to software faults, the NodeB can release the unavailable resources in time and export logs and alarms. Task monitoring: During the running of software, the NodeB monitors the internal errors of all software and some hardware faults, if any. The NodeB also has a monitoring process to monitor running status and report alarms when the system is faulty, and try to restore the task by self-healing. Data consistency check: The NodeB performs scheduled or event-triggered data consistency check and can restore the data consistency preferably or preferentially. Also, it generates related logs and alarms. Dongle: The NodeB can detect the irregular running status of the software and then automatically reset the system through the dongles at both software and hardware levels.
