Draft A (2014-01-23)
Compared with Issue 02 (2013-11-15) of GBSS15.0, Draft A (2014-01-23) of GBSS16.0
includes the following changes.
2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
In a wireless communications system, multipath propagation is the phenomenon that results in
radio signals reaching the receiving antenna by two or more paths. Multipath propagation causes
the amplitude, phase, and angle of receive (RX) signals to fluctuate, which is known as multipath
fading. It deteriorates the quality of RX signals.
As one of the technologies applied to counteract multipath fading, the diversity technology in
the GSM system consists of time diversity, frequency diversity, and space diversity. With space
diversity, two or more antennas are used at the RX end to receive signals from the same source.
The RX signals are then processed and combined to minimize the impact of multipath fading.
This document describes the technology that enables a BTS to use two antennas (or two
polarization ends of the same polarization antenna) to receive signals from the same source. The
technology is implemented by the 2-Antenna Receive Diversity feature.
2.2 Benefits
The 2-Antenna Receive Diversity feature improves uplink receive quality, receiver sensitivity,
and uplink coverage for BTSs. As this feature does not require additional hardware installation
or algorithm implementation, it reduces the capital expenditure (CAPEX) for telecom operators.

3 Technical Description
The 2-Antenna Receive Diversity feature combines the signals from the same source received
by two diversity antennas to counteract multipath interference. Figure 3-1 shows the
implementation of 2-Antenna Receive Diversity.
NOTE
l In Figure 3-1, RX channels 1 and 2 correspond to the main diversity RX channels of a TRX board.
l 2-Antenna Receive Diversity supports four diversity combination algorithms: MRC, ICC, EICC, and
MICC. Each of them has its own combining coefficients W1 and W2.
l For a GBTS, the connection mode between RF modules and antennas is set to the two-way
receive mode by setting SndRcvMode(BSC6900,BSC6910),SndRcvMode1
(BSC6900,BSC6910), SndRcvMode2(BSC6900,BSC6910), and SndRcvMode3
(BSC6900,BSC6910). Additionally, the connection mode of antennas is consistent with
the actual connections.
l For an eGBTS, two receive antennas are configured by setting ANTNUM. The send and
receive mode of the two receive antennas is set to RX_MODE(RX) by setting
ANTTYPE1 and ANTTYPE2.
NOTE
When the value of ANTNUM (the maximum value is 8) is greater than 2, set all the following
parameters for each antenna: ANTTYPE1, ANTTYPE2, ANTTYPE3, ANTTYPE4, ANTTYPE5,
ANTTYPE6, ANTTYPE7, and ANTTYPE8.
The MRC, ICC, EICC, and MICC algorithms estimate noises or suppress interferences in
different ways. Therefore, the quality of output signals differs for each algorithm. For details
about these algorithms, see Interference Cancellation Combining Feature Parameter
Description.

The send and receive mode varies depending on the type and quantity of RF boards. It can be set to
SGLDOUBLE_ANTENNA(Single Feeder[1TX + 2RX]), DOUBLE_ANTENNA(Double Feeder
[2TX + 2RX]), or DOUBLEDOUBLE_ANTENNA(Double Feeder[1TX + 2RX]).
Step 2 Run the SET GTRXDEV command with Receive Mode set to MAINDIVERSITY(Main
Diversity).

When configuring the 2-Antenna Receive Diversity feature on the CME, you must perform a single
configuration first, and then perform batch modifications if required. You must perform a single
configuration for a parameter before batch modifications of the parameter. You are advised to perform
batch modifications before logging out of the parameter setting interface.
Set parameters on the CME configuration interface according to the operation sequence
described in Table 6-2. For the method of performing the CME single configuration, see CME
Single Configuration Operation Guide.
Step 2 (Optional) Modify objects in batches on the CME. (CME batch modification center)
To modify objects, such as BSCs, BTSs, cells, and TRXs, in batches, click the icon on the
CME configuration interface to start the batch modification wizard. For the method of
performing batch modifications through the CME batch modification center, press F1 on the
wizard interface to obtain online help.
----End
Step 2 Record the counters related to uplink receive quality in the "Receive Quality Measurement per
TRX" function subset. Calculate the percentage of the number of MRs on the uplink (mean
receive quality rank 0).
Percentage of the number of MRs on the uplink (mean receive quality rank 0) =
Step 3 On the BSC LMT, run the SET BTSRXUBP command with the send and receive mode set to
the two-way receive mode for RF boards.
Step 4 Run the SET GTRXDEV command with Receive Mode set to MAINDIVERSITY(Main
Diversity).

Step 3 On the BTS LMT, run the ADD SECTOREQM command. In this step, set Antenna
Number to 2 and set Antenna RX/TX Mode for the two antennas to RXTX_MODE(RX And
TX) and RX_MODE(RX), respectively.
