Each sector supports up to 4 carriers. Coverage: It supports particular configurations such as sectors x carriers and sectors x transmit power. The maximum search radius is 180 km. The 1-way receiver sensitivity is higher than 125 dBm. The BTS3812E supports transmit diversity and can be connected to the Remote Radio Unit (RRU). Multiband applications: It supports frequency bands 2100 MHz, 1900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 900 MHz, and 850 MHz and supports cabinet sharing between any two bands to meet operators' requirements in different regions. Flexible networking topology: It supports multiple topologies such as star, chain, tree, and ring. It also supports satellite and microwave transmission. Transmission interfaces: The data on the Iub interface can be transmitted in the channelized and non-channelized ATM transmission based on E1/T1 and STM-1/OC-3 and in the IP transmission based on E1/T1 and FE. The BTS3812A supports the UNI link, IMA link, fractional ATM link, and hub NodeB. Clock and synchronization: The NodeB supports the clock extracted from the Iub interface, the Global Positioning System (GPS) clock, BITS clock, and internal clock. High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA): HSDPA and R99/R4 services are supported by the same carrier. The downlink peak rate is up to 14.4 Mbit/s and the uplink peak rate is up to 384 kbit/s. Each cell supports 64 HSDPA users. High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA): HSUPA phase 1 is supported. The uplink application layer peak rate is up to 1.44 Mbit/s (DL) and peak rate over the Uu interface is 1.92 Mbit/s. Each cell supports 20 HSUPA users. Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service (MBMS): With this technology, the NodeB can save resources on the Uu interface either by sending multimedia broadcast services to the UEs in a cell over common channels or by sending multicast services subscribed by the UEs in the cell. Installation: With a modular design that supports cabling at the front of the cabinet, the NodeB cabinet is easy to install and maintain. OM platform: With the Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) and the M2000, the NodeB supports the local maintenance, remote maintenance, and inverse maintenance. Enhanced antenna system: The antenna system supports Antenna Interface Standards Group (AISG) protocols, Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) and Smart Tower Mounted Amplifier (STMA), and Remote Electrical Tilt (RET). High-speed access of UEs: The NodeB allows UEs to enjoy services in a vehicle moving at the speed of up to 400 km/h. IP RAN: The IP transmission mode enables all-IP transmission on the Iub and Iur interface. Data services can be transmitted over low rate links. This helps you make use of the IP transmission resources.

then allocates the DL data to the MTRU, or the HBOI then allocates the DL data to the RRU.
l
Uplink processing The HBBI receives the UL baseband data from the MTRU or the HBOI receives the UL baseband data from the RRU. After demodulation and decoding, it sends the data in the format of FP packets to the transport subsystem.
Closed loop processing: The baseband subsystem implements the physical layer closed loop processing for acquisition indications (AIs), the uplink and downlink power control, and the DL closed loop transmit diversity processing. The processing retrieves related control information, such as AI, uplink transmit power control (TPC), downlink TPC and feedback information (FBI), from the received UL data and then sends the control information to DL transmit channels.

Figure 6-2 Logical structure of the RF subsystem
Operating Principles of TX Channel

The RX channel functions as follows: 1. 2. The MTRUs receive the downlink data distributed by the HBBI. The MTRU converts the data into small RF signals at WCDMA transmit band through pulse-shaping filtering, DUC, DAC, intermediate analog signal amplification, and upconversion. The HPA amplifies the small signals. The MTRU sends RF signals to the MAFU. The MAFU duplexer filters the signals, and then the MAFU sends the signals to the antenna through the feeder. The antenna transmits the signals.
3. 4. 5. 6.
Operating Principles of RX Channel

In two-way receive diversity mode, two ports of the antenna system receive UL signals from UEs simultaneously. One port is used to receive and transmit signals while the other is used to receive signals only. The RX channel functions as follows: 1. 2. Antennas of the two-port antenna system receive weak signals from UEs and send them to the MAFU through feeders. In MAFUs, the duplexers filter the signals from the receiving-and-transmitting port and the low noise amplifiers (LNAs) amplify the signals. Then the UL signals are sent to the MTRU. In MAFUs, the filters process the signals from the receiving-only port and the LNAs amplify the signals. Then the UL signals are sent to the MTRU.
3.
Issue 04 (2007-06-30)
4.
The MTRUs process the signals and send them to the HBBIs after amplification, downconversion, ADC, DDC, matched filtering, and DAGC.
NOTE
l l l
If you configure a TMA, it can bypass the DL transmit signals to the antenna. Also, the TMA amplifies the UL signals and sends them to the MAFUs through the feeder. As shown in Figure 6-2, the common TX/RX port is named ANT A, and the RX port is named ANT B. For the single cabinet, two HBBIs are connected to all MTRUs and work in mutual backup mode. For the two combined cabinets, one HBBI is connected to the MTRUs in the primary cabinet, and the other HBBI is connected to the MTRUs in the secondary cabinet. The two HBBIs work independently. Two RX channels can be configured with RX diversity function.

When the BTS3812E uses the 220 V AC input power, the power subrack needs configure a converter that changes the 220 V AC power supply into the 48 V DC power supply. When the BTS3812E uses the +24 V DC input power, the power subrack needs configure a converter that changes the +24 V DC power supply into the 48 V DC power supply. When the BTS3812E uses the 48 V DC input power, the power subrack is not configured.
8.2 Power distribution of the BTS3812E

According to the input power, the BTS3812E power distribution is classified into the 48 V DC power distribution, +24 V DC power distribution, and 220 V AC power distribution. The power supply enters the BTS3812E at the cabinet top. When the BTS3812E uses the 220 V AC input power or +24 V DC input power, the input power is converted into the 48 V DC power supply in the power subrack before being sent to the busbar. When the BTS3812E uses the 48 V DC input power, the input power is directly sent to the busbar. The devices inside the cabinet get power from the busbar.

Then the DC power is distributed to the internal components of the cabinet through the busbar. In order to minimize the impact from power failure, batteries are configured to the BTS3812A for power backup.

AC Power Distribution
The BTS3812A supports both the single-phase and 3-phase AC power inputs. The 3-phase AC power passes through the surge protector and the EMI filter before it is led to the AC distribution unit. From the AC distribution unit, the power is distributed to the heat exchanger, PSUs, and reserved power sockets. MCBs are applied to protecting the circuits. Figure 9-2 shows the AC power distribution. The AC power goes through the AC distribution unit and reaches PSUs on three paths as follows:

PSU 1, PSU 4, and PSU 5 on one path; PSU 2 and PSU 6 on another path; PSU 3 and PSU 7 on the third path.
MCBs, surge protectors, and EMI filters are all installed in the surge protection and filter subrack. PSUs are installed in the power subrack. When the single-phase AC power input is applied, you should use copper bars to connect the three phase wires L1, L2, and L3 on the AC surge protector.

The signal flow of downlink services refers to the user plane data sent from the RNC to the UE through the BTS3812E/BTS3812A. The NUTI/NDTI, HDLP, HBBI, MTRU, and MAFU work together to process the signals of the downlink services carried on the BTS3812E/BTS3812A.

Figure 13-2 Signal flow of downlink services when the HDLP is configured
Description of Signal Flow of Downlink Services

No matter the HDLP is configured or not, the procedure for signal flow of downlink services is as follows: 1. The NodeB Iub interface board receives signals from the RNC, performs AAL2 switching, and then transmits the service signals to the HDLP and the downlink baseband processing part of the HBBI. The HDLP and the downlink baseband processing part of HBBI perform the following functions:

Frame Protocol (FP) processing, coding, mapping from transport channels to physical channels, framing, spreading and modulation, and power control. The HBBI collects the processed data and transmits it to the corresponding MTRU. performs digital RRC pulse-shaping filtering, insertion filtering, Digital Up Conversion (DUC), and Digital-Analog Conversion (DAC). Then IF signals are generated. RF signals are generated after up-conversion and are transmitted to the MAFU after filtering and amplification.

13.2 Signal Flow of Uplink Services of the BTS3812E/ BTS3812A

The signal flow of uplink services is the user plane data from the UE through the BTS3812E/ BTS3812A to the RNC.

Issue 04 (2007-06-30)
Figure 13-4 Signal Flow of Uplink Services When the HULP is Configured
Description of Signal Flow of Uplink Services

No matter the HULP is configured or not, the procedure for the signal flow of uplink services is as follows: 1. The antenna receives signals from UEs. The signals amplified by the TMA are transmitted to the MAFU. Note that the TMA can be optionally used to compensate for feeder loss and to enhance the NodeB receive sensitivity. The MAFU: The MAFU processes UL signals of two channels simultaneously.
l l
2.
The signals of one channel are processed over the common TX/RX channel and are sent to the MTRU after being filtered by the duplexer and amplified by the LNA. The signals of the other channel are processed over the dedicated RX channel and are sent to the MTRU after being filtered by the duplexer and amplified by the LNA.
3.
The MTRU: The MTRU simultaneously processes UL signals of two channels in the same way as follows: (1) The MTRU amplifies and down converts the signals to produce IF signals. (2) Through the Analog-Digital Conversion (ADC), the IF signals are converted into digital signals. (3) After the Digital Down Conversion (DDC), extraction filtering, RRC filtering, and Digital Automatic Gain Control (DAGC) processing, digital baseband signals are produced and signal multiplexing is completed. Then the multiplexed signals are transferred to the HBBI.
4.
After the signals are led to HBBI, the UL signals are processed by the HBBI or transmitted to the corresponding HULP for baseband processing. The procedure for digital baseband processing is as follows:
Issue 04 (2007-06-30)
(1) The HULP or the HBBI performs access channel demodulation and dedicated channel demodulation, including multi-path searching, channel estimation, frequency tracking, and rake combination to obtain despread and demodulated soft decision symbols. (2) After convolutional or Turbo decoding, FP scrambling and SAR-to-AAL2 adaptation, the HULP sends the symbols to the Iub interface board through the ATM bus. 5. The Iub interface board: The Iub interface board performs AAL2 switching on the uplink service data and transmits the switched data to the RNC through the Iub interface.
13.3 Signal Flow of Signaling Processing of the BTS3812E/ BTS3812A

The signaling of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A is the signaling over the Iub interface. Working together with other boards, the NMPT controls the signaling processing. Figure 13-5 shows the signal flow of signaling processing. Figure 13-5 Signal flow of signaling processing of the NodeB

Topologies of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A
About This Chapter

Topology of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A refers to the transmission topology over the Iub interface, that is, the topology of the transmission channels between the NodeB and the RNC. The BTS3812E/BTS3812A supports multiple topologies, such as star, chain, tree, cascading RRUs, hub NodeB, and co-transmission with 2G equipment, to meet the requirements of different scenarios. 14.1 Star Topology As the most commonly used topology, star topology applies to most areas, especially to densely populated areas. 14.2 Chain Topology Chain topology applies to the belt-shaped and loosely populated areas, such as highways and railways. 14.3 Tree Topology Tree topology applies to complicated networks and sites such as large area with concentrated hot spots. 14.4 Topology of the NodeB Cascaded with RRUs The topology of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A cascaded with RRUs can achieve flexible coverage in such locations as indoor places, underground places, highways, and railways. 14.5 2G/3G Concurrent Transmission The NodeB supports the fractional ATM and CES, which enables 2G/3G concurrent transmission and reduces investment on transmission resources. 14.6 Topology of the Hub NodeB The NodeB supports the topology with the hub NodeB. The hub NodeB converges the transmission bandwidth of the lower-level NodeBs.
Issue 04 (2007-06-30)
14-1
14.1 Star Topology

As the most commonly used topology, star topology applies to most areas, especially to densely populated areas. Figure 14-1 shows the topology. Figure 14-1 Star topology
Advantages of star topology:

l l
The NodeB is directly connected to the RNC. Therefore, star topology features simplicity, convenience in maintenance, engineering, and capacity expansion. Direct data transmission is built between the NodeB and RNC and signals travel fewer nodes, which gives higher transmission reliability.
Disadvantages of star topology: Compared with the other networking modes, star topology requires more transmission resources.
14.2 Chain Topology

Chain topology applies to the belt-shaped and loosely populated areas, such as highways and railways.
Figure 14-2 shows the topology. Figure 14-2 Chain topology
Advantages: Chain topology can reduce costs in transmission equipment, engineering, construction, and transmission link lease. Disadvantages:
l l l
Signals travel through many nodes, so the transmission reliability is low. Faults in the upper-level NodeB may affect the operation of the lower-level NodeB(s). Each chain may have a maximum of five levels.
14.3 Tree Topology

Tree topology applies to complicated networks and sites such as large area with concentrated hot spots. Figure 14-3 shows the topology. Figure 14-3 Tree topology
Advantages of tree topology: Tree topology requires fewer transmission links than star topology. Disadvantages:

l
Signals travel through many nodes, which causes low transmission reliability and construction and maintenance difficulties. Faults in the upper-level NodeB may affect the operation of the lower-level NodeB(s). Capacity expansion is difficult because it may involve major modification to the network architecture. Each tree topology may have a maximum number of five levels.
l l
14.4 Topology of the NodeB Cascaded with RRUs

The topology of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A cascaded with RRUs can achieve flexible coverage in such locations as indoor places, underground places, highways, and railways. Figure 14-4 shows the topology. Figure 14-4 Topology of the BTS3812E/BTS3812A cascaded with RRUs
Advantages : This topology can reduce costs in initial construction and expand the network coverage. The RRUs feature convenience in network planning and centralized management by the upper-level NodeB. Disadvantages: Faults in the upper-level NodeB may affect normal operations of RRUs.
14.5 2G/3G Concurrent Transmission

The NodeB supports the fractional ATM and CES, which enables 2G/3G concurrent transmission and reduces investment on transmission resources.
Fractional ATM
In the fractional ATM mode, some of the 32 timeslots in an E1/T1 link are used for ATM cell transmission. That is, the ATM cells are mapped to some of the 30 timeslots (timeslots 0 and 16 already reserved) at the TX end and then recovered from those timeslots at the RX end. The scenarios of 2G/3G co-transmission in fractional ATM mode are as follows:
l
The operators have GSM mobile networks. It is possible to use current transmission network resources to build 3G networks. The RNC and NodeB support the fractional ATM. The function of timeslot cross connection is provided by the BSC and BTS or external timeslot cross devices.
l l
Figure 14-5 shows the 2G/3G co-transmission in Fractional ATM mode. Figure 14-5 2G/3G co-transmission in fractional ATM mode
Advantages: 2G/3G co-transmission helps operators speed up WCDMA construction and offering services. It saves the transmission resources and reduces expenses in the initial phase of WCDMA construction. Disadvantages: The 3G equipment is dependent on the 2G equipment, whose upgrade affects the stability of 3G services.
CES
The Circuit Emulation Service (CES) uses the technology that emulates the TDM circuit in the ATM network. The CES enables the narrowband signals to be transmitted in the wideband system. In CES mode, 2G systems may use the 3G ATM transmission devices to transmit 2G services. The scenarios of 2G/3G co-transmission in CES ATM mode are as follows:
l
When the transmission resources of the 2G network are insufficient, 2G systems can use the ATM transmission devices to transmit services through CES mode. The RNC and NodeB must support the CES.
Figure 14-6 shows the 2G/3G co-transmission in CES mode.

Figure 14-6 2G/3G co-transmission in CES mode
Advantages of CES mode:

l
2G/3G co-transmission in CES mode reduces costs of transmission and network maintenance. No timeslot cross device is required on the NodeB side, which reduces the costs and enhances system reliability. The transmission over the ATM network enhances the usage of the transmission resources and ensures the performance of the CS real time services as well as the sequence of the timeslot data.
Disadvantages of CES mode:

l
CES mode applies to mature 3G networks with enough bandwidth on the Iub interface because it occupies more bandwidth on the interface. The CES port resource is limited on the RNC side. The 2G equipment is dependent on the 3G equipment, whose performance affects the stability of the 2G services. The encapsulation and decapsulation during the circuit emulation introduces delay and delay variation, which affect the QoS of the 2G services.
l l
14.6 Topology of the Hub NodeB

The NodeB supports the topology with the hub NodeB. The hub NodeB converges the transmission bandwidth of the lower-level NodeBs. The hub NodeB integrates the functions of transmission device. Thus the hub NodeB can converge the transmission data of the lower-level NodeBs. Figure 14-7 shows the network topology of hub NodeBs.
14-6
Issue 04 (2007-06-30)
Figure 14-7 Network topology of the hub NodeB
Advantage: The hub NodeB converges the transmission data of the lower-level NodeBs. Thus the transmission resources are more effectively used. Disadvantage: Faults in the hub NodeB may affect the running of the lower-level NodeBs.

The OM subsystem consists of the LMT , M2000, RAN configuration system, OM channel, and Network Element (NE). As shown in Figure 15-1, the OM subsystem has the following components: Figure 15-1 NodeB OM subsystem
The NodeB OM subsystem consists of the following:

l l l l
LMT: maintains a single NodeB. M2000: maintains multiple NodeBs. RAN configuration system: provides data configuration for Huawei RNC and NodeB. OM channel: provides channels between the NodeB and the LMT and between the NodeB and the M2000. NE: the object of maintenance.
The OM Subsystem provides the following three modes of maintenance:

l
Local maintenance: The NodeB is maintained on the LMT through the local Ethernet port of the NodeB. Remote maintenance: The NodeB is maintained through the IP route provided by the RNC. The maintenance is performed on the M2000 client or the LMT in an NMS center or an RNC equipment room. Reverse maintenance: Another NodeB is maintained on the LMT through the local Ethernet port of a local NodeB and the IP route provided by the RNC.
NOTE
After hardware installation, the NodeB is loaded with only the software, not the data configuration file. In this situation, a maintenance channel with parameters negotiated between the NodeB and the RNC in the ATM transport network can be automatically set up. This function enables maintenance personnel to download the data configuration file to the NodeB at the far end.

The alarm management of the BTS3812E can detect and report equipment faults in real time. The LMT or the M2000 can display alarm information and provide alarm handling suggestions. The alarm management system of the M2000 connects to an alarm box through a serial port and supports both audible and visible alarms. The alarms can be subscribed by the client and forwarded to the handsets or pagers of the maintenance personnel so that the personnel can handle the faults in time.
Environment alarm management Typically, the equipment rooms are unmanned and distributed over a vast area. The equipment in such a room works in a relatively adverse environment, and may incur fires, water immersion, or flood. To help you handle such emergencies, the NodeB provides a complete environment alarm monitoring system.
