Networking scenario 1
Co-existence of full coverage by shared and non-shared RANs
Operator A and operator B share RAN devices on the global network. This networking can quickly deploy
networks and save network construction costs in the preliminary network construction phase when the
user scale is small.

Networking scenario 2
Co-existence of shared network and 2G network
One or both of two operators have GSM networks in certain areas. To use the GSM network resources, the operator(s)
will require that the new RAN sharing network be interoperable with the existing GSM network(s).
In this scenario, by using the neighboring cell configuration of the shared RNC and BSSs, when users of operator A
and/or operator B move to the existing GSM serving area from the serving area of the shared network, the service
continuity can be guaranteed.

Networking scenario 2
Co-existence of shared network and 2G network
One kind of special scene needs to pay attention, the operator uses RAN Sharing on 3G, roaming to
realize to share on 2G. The operator B GSM network allows A to roam, such need configure the neighbor
relations between the B GSM Cell with A sharing Cell.

Networking scenario 3
Co-existence of full coverage and partial coverage by different operators
Operator A and operator B share the RAN system. Operator A provides full network coverage. Operator B
provides coverage in certain areas. In this case, operator B may need to use network resources of operator A in
areas where operator B does not provide coverage.

Networking scenario 4
Co-existence of Iu-Flex and RAN sharing
Operator A and operator B share RANs. Operator A and/or operator B can implement Iu-Flex networking in
one or both the CS and PS domains of the CN to improve network reliability.

The shared master OSS is operated by an operator (normally the primary operator) or a third-party company to
implement network management and OM functions. The shared master OSS provide services to each operator
by using the Itf-N northbound interface. Operators can maintain dedicated or shared data by using the Itf-N
interface, and perform functions such as cell-level fault management (FM), performance management (PM), and
configuration management (CM).
By using the shared master OSS and Itf-N northbound interface, dedicated data of an operator can be obtained
by only the corresponding operator and shared data can be obtained by all operators.
The shared master OSS shields the impact of different operators on the RAN. Therefore, the OM design is the
same as that in non-shared RNC scenarios.

RNC License
The total maximum user number of CS of all operators cannot exceed the maximum user number of CS
specified in the purchased RNC license. The same is true for the maximum throughput of PS. That is, the
following license constraint is met:
(LIC_i) <= LIC_Purchase
NodeB License
Private group: defines the dedicated resources and functions of a certain operator.
Common group: defines resources and functions shared by all operators. The common group is optional.
License groups meet the following constraint (taking two operators for example):
(LIC_NodeBi_A + LIC_NodeBi_B + LIC_NodeBi_A&B) <= LIC_Purchase
Resource control item including the CE quantity, HSDPA code, frequency and PA output, may configure
differently on M2000 according to operator.
The NodeB functional control item to the NodeB level, the functional control item on M2000 providing shares
by all operators, cannot configure independently.

Networking scenario 1
The Whole network MOCN
All carriers of entire network share among the operators. Under this scene, only
involves the mobility management between MOCN cell and MOCN cell.
Huawei Confidential
Page 19
Networking scenario 2
MOCN Private cell network
Part carrier sharing , other part carrier does not share in the same RNC. HUAWEI MOCN solution support private cell and
sharing cell coexistence, this very suitable this situation that among the operators some carriers sharing or only share
some regions.
If under the NodeB both has the MOCN cell and private cell, then the NodeB attribution configure MOCN, more than 1
operator is the MOCN cell, equal to 1 operator is the private cell. When the cell establishes that will configure the operator.

Networking scenario 3
MOCN RNC and special RNC coexist
Operator A and B deploy independent 3G network in some regional, and deploy the MOCN
network in other regional.
Sharing MOCN RNC connects special RNC A and RNC B through Iur interface, and configures
the neighboring area relations. Therefore, when operator A and B in same sharing cell UE from
sharing region migration to non-sharing region, enable A operator's UE handover to the A
neighboring cell and B operator's UE handover to the B neighboring cell.
Huawei Confidential

Networking scenario 4
MOCN RNC and 2G network coexist
operator A and operator B respectively had deployed a GSM network, and deploys MOCN
3G network. MOCN network requirement and GSM network interoperability, therefore has
configured BSS A and BSS B neighboring cell on MOCN RNC. when operator A and B UE
between UMTS cell and neighboring GSM cell moving can guarantee the service
continuity.
Huawei Confidential
Page 22
Networking scenario 4
MOCN RNC and 2G network coexist
Has the intra-system operator handover switch and inter-system operator handover switch in the RNC, if
opens the switch, when RNC is issuing the measurement control to UE, will not filter this operator's
neighboring list again specially, issues all neighboring list normally, the user will possibly be handover to
other operators cell. At present it doesnt use intra-system operator handover switch in the present
network, but has network used inter-system operator handover switch.
The operators use MOCN on 3G and roaming on 2G. Operator A GSM is according to different LAC to
configure in some regions whether permits user roaming of other operators.

Networking scenario 5
Iu-Flex and MOCN coexist
Operator A and operator B shares RAN. In order to enhance the reliability of network,
operator A uses Iu-Flex in CS and PS domain, but operator B only uses Iu-Flex in the
PS domain.
Huawei Confidential

Networking scenario 6
Multi-operator coexist
Operator A and operator B shares RAN, but operator C and operator B signs the
roaming agreement, this agreement permits operator B and operator C all user shared
network resources.

Multiple operators may provide services to a certain UE (for example, a roaming UE). In this case, a
load balancing mechanism is needed to balance the load and ensure network sharing fairness among
operators.
Generally, the Default mode is used. The default operator is the primary operator.
MOCN network support proportionate route roaming of user loading balance based on RAN13 version,
RNC may judge non-supporting UE whether have the roaming relations with many operators, realizes
proportionate division roaming user, guarantees operator's income to the roaming user.

RAN15.0 introduced the MOCN independent CE resource allocation feature, supports assignment CE
License resource according to the operator by the NodeB level, if the customer just has this requirement, it
can deploy this feature.
Before the deployment , we need to audit the traffic of each operator to prevent the assignment the CE
number is less than the traffic demand
a)If among the operators the independent request to resources is high, then the sharing group may not
assign CE, only assigns CE in the private group; And NodeB total CE utility will drop.
b)If the operator considered independence and utility of resources, then may increase the assignment of
CE in the sharing group, more CE in the sharing group , then the utility is higher, the independence is
lower.
c)Sum of various operators' private group CE and sharing group CE cannot pass the purchase the CE
license.
