Using the RADWIN GSU
What is it for
The GPS-based synchronizat ion unit (GSU) is designed t o handle int er-sit e int erferences
under large-scale deployment scenarios.
The GSU is an out door unit consist ing of a st andard WinLink 1000 enclosure, a GPS ant enna
and a PoE device.
The GSU is connect ed t o t he HSS Unit using a st andard HSS cable. I t synchronizes t he t rans-
mission t iming of mult iple Hub-Sit es t o t he same clock source t hus eliminat ing mut ual int er-
ference.
GSU Functionality
The GSU receives a synchronizat ion signal from t he GPS once per second. I t dist ribut es a
RADWI N propriet ary synchronizat ion signal t o all ot her ODU unit s using t he RS422 prot ocol
and t he st andard HSS mechanism, where t he GSU act s as an HSM unit .
When t he GSU doesnt receive a synchronizat ion signal from t he GPS for 30 seconds, it moves
aut omat ically t o Self-Generat ion mode and act s as a regular HSM unit , unt il t he GPS recovers.
Typical GSU Scenarios
Independent Distributed Sites
I n t he scenario of Fi gur e 11-1, we have mult iple independent collocat ed sit es, which may
int erfere wit h each ot her. To meet t his sit uat ion, we coordinat e all of t hem using t he GSU as
shown.
The GSU funct ions like wide area HSS unit , ensuring t hat all part icipat ing radios at t he loca-
t ions marked GSU each t ransmit and receive at t he same t ime.

Multiple Distributed Sites with Communication
What happens if, in Fi gur e 11-1, t he GSU t owers t hemselves have radios communicat ing as
shown in Fi gur e 11-2?
Consider GSU 1 and GSU 2: Bot h collocat ed t owers t ransmit and receive simult aneously. How-
ever, t he radios communicat ing at GSU 1 and GSU 2 must t ransmit and receive in t urn accord-
ing t o t he scheme in marked Normal Phase in Fi gur e 11-3. This is an impossible sit uat ion,
if all t he links must send and receive t oget her. I t is furt her complicat ed by adding a t hird and
furt her sit es as shown.

WinLink 1000 User Manual Release 1.9.40 11-3
Cascaded Sites using Shifted Phase Transmission
The solut ion offered here is not a universal cure . The following condit ions are necessary, but
in any specific case may not be sufficient :
The GSU sit es (marked 1, and 3 above) are sufficient ly far apart as t o ensure t hat
t here is no mut ual int erference bet ween communicat ing sit es (1-2 and 2-3 above)
There should be no int erference bet ween non-communicat ing sit es (1 and 3 above).
To see how it works, we use Fi gur e 11-2. The GSU t owers are numbered and marked for
cascading, 1-2 and 2-3. There should not be a link bet ween 1 and 3.
The GSU can synchronize t he TDD t iming of several sit es enabling t he cascading of consecu-
t ive links wit hout mut ual int erference.
To use cascading, t he TDD t iming of t he even-ordered links (GSU 2 above) must be shift ed
(Shift ed Phase) and odd-ordered links (GSU 1 and GSU 3 above) must be unshift ed (Normal
Phase). The phase shift is half of t he Radio Frame Durat ion (RFD) from t he chosen RFP. The
scheme is shown in Fi gur e 11-3.
Since t he GSU is always HSS mast er (HSM), at each GSU locat ion, t he GSU can force t he
synchronizat ion of it s collocat ed radios. By half RFD shift ing, alt ernat e collocat ed sit es can
t alk t o each ot her.
Fi gur e 11-3: Phase shi f t ed t r ansmi ssi on - phase shi f t i s 1/ 2 t he RFD
Choice of normal or shift ed phase is configurable per GSU using t he RADWI N Manager.
GSU Redundancy
The GSU is designed t o support redundancy, improving t he robust ness of a GSU based t opol-
ogy.
I n redundancy mode, t wo GSUs are inst alled at t he same HSS sit e. One of t hem self-config-
ures t o generat e HSS sync signals. We will call it t he Primary unit . The ot her one, t he Second-
ary unit remains dormant merely polling t he first GSU. I f t he Primary GSU fails, t hen t he
Secondary GSU becomes act ive immediat ely. I f t he Primary unit becomes act ive again, it
remains dormant , reversing t he original roles. The choice of t he Primary GSU is random and
of no significance.
I f t he Primary GSU fails, and t hen t he Secondary GSU also fails t o receive sync signals from
it s GPS, t hen it moves t o self-generat ion HSM mode like an ordinary HSM ODU unt il it s GPS
recovers.

What RADWIN MHS provides
Equipment Protection
Equipment prot ect ion is provided for t he elect rically-act ive net work element s, ODU and I DU.
The primary I DU and t he secondary I DU are connect ed by a cable t o monit or failure and t o
cont rol prot ect ion swit ching. Swit ching t ime is less t han 50ms.
When connect ing t wo WinLink 1000 links as 1+ 1, one dual-polarizat ion ant enna can be
shared by t he primary link and t he secondary link.
Air-Interface Protection
Air-I nt erface prot ect ion is unique t o RADWI N and is opt imized for wireless links operat ing in
license-free bands.
The primary link and t he secondary link use different frequency channels. I f t he air-int erface
of t he primary link is dist urbed and cannot carry t he required TDM service, t hen t he syst em
aut omat ically swit ches t o t he secondary link.
I n addit ion, improved robust ness and frequency planning flexibilit y is achieved, as t he pri-
mary and secondary air int erfaces can operat e in t he same frequency band or in different fre-
quency bands.
Aut omat ic Channel Select ion (ACS) can be configured for each link t o add addit ional robust -
ness.
The primary and secondary links are synchronized using Hub Sit e Synchronizat ion (HSS).
I t is recommended t hat bot h sit es be inst alled wit h HSS cables. I f HSS fails at one sit e, it can
be operat ed from t he ot her sit e by remot e configurat ion.

IDU Replacement
There are t wo sit uat ions, which must be t reat ed different ly.
Si t uat i on 1:
To replace eit her of t he I DUs at Sit e 1.4 or t he I DU at Sit e 2.2, not hing special is required.
Simply disconnect t he I DU t o be replaced and replace it wit h a new one. Replacing a sec-
ondary link I DU obviously has no effect on t he TDM service. Disconnect ing t he Sit e 1.4 pri-
mary I DU act ivat es Hot St andby. Aft er t he Sit e 1.4 primary I DU is replaced, t he Link will
det ect t he change and swit ch back t o t he primary link.
I f you replaced t he Sit e 2.2 I DU, remember t o reconnect t he MHS cable.
Si t uat i on 2:
Replacing t he Sit e 1.2 I DU is different , and requires several st eps.
To r epl ace t he Si t e 1.2 pr i mar y l i nk I DU:
1. Power off t he Sit e 1.2 I DU. This act ivat es t he secondary link using Hot St andby.

2. Run t he Configurat ion manager on t he secondary link, and in t he Hot St andby panel
of Fi gur e 12-4 above, check t he Disabled but t on.
3. Replace t he Sit e 1.2 I DU wit hout connect ing it t o t he ODU (t o prevent t ransmission
by t he primary link wit h t he undefined I DU).
4. Reconnect t he MHS cable bet ween t he I DUs at Sit e 1.2.
5. Again, run t he Configurat ion Wizard on t he secondary link, and in t he panel of
Fi gur e 12-4 above, check t he Secondary but t on t o re-enable t he link as secondary.
6. Connect t he new Sit e 1.2 I DU t o it s ODU.
The Hot St andby will aut omat ically revert t o t he primary link wit hin 50ms.
ODU Replacement
Bot h t he primary and secondary replacement ODUs require pre-configurat ion prior t o inser-
t ion int o t he link. The it ems t o be pre-configured are
HSS mode
Link I D
Frequency
Hot St andby mode using t he new Services panel in Fi gur e 12-4 above
I P address (opt ional)
To pr e-conf i gur e an ODU:
1. At t ach t he new ODU t o an I DU or a PoE device.
2. Run t he RADWI N Manager and use Hot St andby t ab of Fi gur e 12-4 above t o config-
ure t he new ODU t o Primary or Secondary mode as required.
3. Ensure t hat it is set t o t he proper HSS mode in accordance wit h Fi gur e 12-4 above.
Ent er t he required Link I D and frequency.
To r epl ace an ODU f or pr i mar y or secondar y l i nk, at ei t her si t e:
I nst all t he pre-configured ODU. (Since t he ot her link is working normally, not hing
need be done wit h it . I f t he secondary ODU was replaced, TDM service remains as is
on t he primary link. I f t he primary ODU was replaced, t hen t he TDM service will shift
back t o t he primary link.)
Switching Logic
Switching from Primary Link to Secondary Link
Swit ching from primary link t o secondary link will occur following:
Loss of t he primary air int erface due t o sync loss
Not e
Pre-configurat ion must be carried out before t he new ODU is
connect ed t o it s I DU. I f you t ry t o do it live against it s I DU, it will
cause spurious t ransmissions and a service break.

Scope
The descript ion of RADWI N Et hernet Ring in t his Chapt er is complet ely generic: Bot h WinLink
1000 and RADWI N 2000 links may part icipat e in an Et hernet ring.
What is an Ethernet Ring
An Et hernet ring consist s of several nodes connect ed by hops (links). Loops are not allowed
wit h Et hernet ; t herefore one hop is a Ri ng Pr ot ect i on Li nk (RPL) which blocks Et hernet
t raffic. I n t he event of failure in t he ring, t he Ring Prot ect ion Link unblocks and Et hernet t raf-
fic in t he ring is rest ored.
Some terminology:
Nor mal St at e all member links are funct ional except t he RPL which is blocked.
Bl ocked - t he air-link is up but Et hernet t raffic is not t ransmit t ed across t he link. The
Et hernet service panel for t he RPL in t he RADWI N Manager is labeled I dl e

The st eps below follow t he numbering in Fi gur e 13-1:
1. Nor mal oper at i on
Et hernet t raffic runs in t he ring, but does not pass t hrough t he RPL, which is blocked. The
RPL does however, broadcast RPM packet s t hrough t he ring.
2. Ri ng Li nk down, RPL not i f i ed
The RPL det ect s a link-down condit ion by t he non-arrival of an RPM packet . I t remains
blocked for t he Mi ni mum t i me f or f ai l ur e det ect i on which is configurable using t he
RADWI N Manager (see page 13-9).
3. Ri ng Li nk down, RPL unbl ocked f or t r af f i c

4. Ri ng Li nk r est or ed but st i l l bl ocked f or t r af f i c
The Ring Link is rest ored, but remains blocked for t he Mi ni mum t i me f or r ecover y, set
using t he RADWI N Manager, t o avoid rapid fluct uat ions leading t o pot ent ial short t erm
loops (see page 13-9).
5. Ri ng Li nk r est or ed, RPL bl ocked f or t r af f i c
The RPL blocks t o Et hernet t raffic aft er t he Mi ni mum t i me f or r ecover y expires and

Ret ur n t o 1.) Ri ng Li nk r est or ed, RPL bl ocked f or t r af f i c
The ring is back t o normal operat ion.
Wit h RADWI N links, RADWI Ns Ring Prot ect ion solut ion prevent s Et hernet loops in t he ring at
all t imes. The ring is always broken somewhere.
Under a ring configurat ion a RADWI N Ring Link t hat was down and commences recov-
ery, keeps blocking Et hernet t raffic. The RPL ident ifies t his sit uat ion, blocks it self and
t hen unblocks t he ot her Ring Link. This is t he t ransit ion from st ep 4 t o 5 in
Fi gur e 13-1.
I f t he failed hop is not a RADWI N link t hen t here are t wo possibilit ies:
I f t he hop Ring Link can signal t hat it is down by issuing a Loss of Signal (LOS) at
t he Et hernet port , t hen t he RPL will cont rol t he RADWI N link connect ed t o t hat
port in t he same manner as described above, t o prevent an Et hernet loop.
Ot herwise, t here may be a short loop period when t he RPL is st ill open for t raffic
and t he Ring Link is also unblocked during t he Mi ni mum t i me f or r ecover y.

VLAN Tagging
VLAN t agging enables mult iple bridged net works t o t ransparent ly share t he same physical
net work link wit hout leakage of informat ion bet ween net works:

I EEE 802.1Q is used as t he encapsulat ion prot ocol t o implement t his mechanism over Et her-
net net works.
QinQ (Double Tagging) for Service Providers
QinQ is useful for Service Providers, allowing t hem t o use VLANs int ernally in t heir t ransport
net work while mixing Et hernet t raffic from client s t hat are already VLAN-t agged.
Fi gur e 14-2: Separ at i ng cl i ent dat a st r eams usi ng doubl e t aggi ng
The out er t ag (represent ing t he Provider VLAN) comes first , followed by t he inner t ag. I n
QinQ t he Et herType = 0x9100. VLAN t ags may be st acked t hree or more deep.
When using t his t ype of Provider Tagging you should keep t he following in mind:
Under Provider Tagging, t he syst em double-t ags egress frames t owards t he Providers
net work. The syst em adds a t ag wit h a VLAN I D and Et herType = 0x9100 t o all
frames, as configured by t he service provider (Provider VLAN I D).
The syst em always adds t o each frame, t ags wit h VLAN I D and Et herType = 0x9100.
Therefore,
For a frame wit hout a t ag t he syst em will add a t ag wit h VLAN I D and
Et herType = 0x9100 so t he frame will have one t ag
For a frame wit h a VLAN t ag t he syst em will add a t ag wit h VLAN I D and
Et herType = 0x9100 so t he frame will be double-t agged
For a frame wit h a VLAN t ag and a provider t ag t he syst em will add a t ag wit h
VLAN I D and Et herType = 0x9100 so t he frame will be t riple-t agged and so on
VLAN Untagging
VLAN Unt aggi ng means t he removal of a VLAN or a Provider t ag.
Port Functionality
The VLAN funct ionalit y is support ed by all LAN and SFP port s in t he I DU.
Each port can be configured how t o handle Et hernet frames at t he ingress direct ion (where
frames ent er t he I DU) and at t he egress direct ion (where frame exit t he I DU).
The configurat ion is independent at each port .

Fresnel loss is t he pat h loss occurring from mult i-pat h reflect ions from reflect ive surfaces such
as wat er, and int ervening obst acles such as buildings or mount ain peaks wit hin t he Fresnel
zone.
Radio links should be designed t o accommodat e obst ruct ions and at mospheric condit ions,
weat her condit ions, large bodies of wat er, and ot her reflect ors and absorbers of elect romag-
net ic energy.
The Fresnel zone provides us wit h a way t o calculat e t he amount of clearance t hat a wireless
wave needs from an obst acle t o ensure t hat t he obst acle does not at t enuat e t he signal.
There are infinit ely many Fresnel zones locat ed coaxially around t he cent er of t he direct
wave. The out er boundary of t he first Fresnel zone is defined as t he combined pat h lengt h of
all pat hs, which are half wavelengt h (1/ 2 ) of t he frequency t ransmit t ed longer t han t he
direct pat h. I f t he t ot al pat h dist ance is one wavelengt h (1 ) longer t han t he direct pat h,
t hen t he out er boundary is said t o be t wo Fresnel zones. Odd number Fresnel zones reinforce
t he direct wave pat h signal; even number Fresnel zones cancel t he direct wave pat h signal.
The amount of t he Fresnel zone clearance is det ermined by t he wavelengt h of t he signal, t he
pat h lengt h, and t he dist ance t o t he obst acle. For reliabilit y, point -t o-point links are designed
t o have at least 60% of t he first Fresnel zone clear t o avoid significant at t enuat ion.
The concept of t he Fresnel zone is shown in Fi gur e 21-1 above. The t op of t he obst ruct ion
does not ext end far int o t he Fresnel zone, leaving 60% of t he Fresnel zone clear; t herefore,

Video Surveillance
About the RADWIN Video Surveillance Product
RADWI Ns Video Surveillance solut ion provides an inexpensive asymmet ric link: A fast uplink
for a real t ime video st ream from a camera sit e t o t he surveillance base and a slower com-
mand downlink from t he base t o t he camera sit e.
The Video Surveillance (VS) product belongs t o RADWI Ns Access line. A VS link consist s of a
base ODU t ransmit t ing at 2Mbps connect ed by a PoE device. The camera sit e uses a PoE con-
nect ed ODU t ransmit t ing at 5Mbps.
I nst allat ion, configurat ion and maint enance of a VS link is subst ant ially t he same as for a reg-
ular PoE based link. VS links are readily collocat ed using RADWI Ns HSS syst em, so t hat a sin-
gle base mast can accommodat e up t o 16 camera st at ions.

Antenna Characteristics
An ant enna is t he radiat ing and receiving element from which t he radio signal, in t he form of
RF power, is radiat ed t o it s surroundings and vice versa. The t ransmission range is a funct ion
of t he ant enna gain and t ransmit t ing power. These fact ors are limit ed by count ry regulat ions.
The WinLink 1000 may be operat ed wit h an int egrat ed ant enna at t ached t o t he ODU unit , or
wit h an ext ernal ant enna wired t o t he ODU via a N-t ype connect ors. All cables and connec-
t ions must be connect ed correct ly t o reduce losses. The required ant enna impedance is 50.
