1+0 Ring

The 1+0 Ring System Type is a 1+0 configuration with the facility to protect the
synchronization in the ring.
This system type must be used to implement the Ring Protection: two FlexiPacket
MultiRadios, interconnected through the ODU-ODU cable, configured as 1+0 Ring,
are connected to the Indoor Device, as shown in Fig. 2.
In this configuration the ring is made up of all FlexiPacket MultiRadios (the ring does
not include any IDU).
The synchronization is managed by the FlexiPacket MultiRadios.
The ODU-ODU cable carries the synchronization only.

1+1 Hot Standby with Two Cables

In order to provide resilience against hardware failures, FlexiPacket MultiRadio


supports a 1+1 Hot Stand-by protection scheme with two cables (Fig. 3).
In the 1+1 Hot Standby system, the ODUs use the same RF channel.
The HotStandby protection can be supported using 2 different mechanisms:

CCM based (continuity check messages): It is based on customized L2 OAM


protocol according to 802.3ag standard involving the IDU and the ODUs. This
protocol is implemented in all IDU that are part of FlexiPacket Microwave solution.
The exchange of particular frames between IDU and ODUs univocally identifies
any single fault making ODU switching and making IDU redirecting data traffic
from one ODU to the other one.
Protection assure less then 50ms switching time in worst case. The duplication
capability is available on the HUB NNI ports only, so the IDU ports connected to each
ODU of the protection scheme shall be configured as NNI.
In addition, the two ports shall be full duplex and with the same speed. When the
working radio fails, IDU switches the traffic on the standby ODU which is concurrently
activated.

Configurations and Protections

1.1.3.1

CCM Mechanism: How it works

The working FlexiPacket MultiRadio periodically sends Continuity Check messages


to both the FPHub and the Stand-By FlexiPacket Radio.
The FPHub forwards the data traffic towards the working FlexiPacket MultiRadio until
it periodically receives these Continuity Check messages.
If Continuity Check messages from working FlexiPacket MultiRadio are not received
anymore, the FPHub flushes its own L2 tables and enables forwarding towards the
other port.
The Stand-by FlexiPacket MultiRadio remains switched OFF (both in Tx and Rx) until
it periodically receives Continuity check messages from the working FlexiPacket
MultiRadio. If Continuity Check messages are not received for 3 Times by the Standby FlexiPacket Radio, it will become working for both the Tx and the Rx chain.

1+1 Hot Standby with Single cable

In the single cable system type the protection ODU is connected via Ethernet
interface to the IDU or to a generic Indoor device.
The two Outdoor Units are connected via ODU-ODU cable.
In normal operation the protection ODU has the Transmitter turned off.
The Main ODU is active in both TX/RX directions.
When a failure occurs on the Main ODU, the Protection ODU removes the squelch
and starts to protect the radio link This system type does not protect in case of cable
or Protection ODU failure.
The protection of the system is revertive, that is, when the faulty unit is replaced,
rebecomes Main.
WARNING
Please note that Main ODU needs to be powered separately.

1+1 frequency diversity with two cables

Frequency Diversity protection is implemented transmitting the same traffic flow over
two frequency channels (Fig. 6).
The two ODU (in both sides of the link) are directly connected by means of the ODUODU cable.
The Master ODU receiver selects the received signals on the basis of their estimated
noise level.
The master ODU is defined as the ODU that receives the traffic from IDU in normal
working conditions; secondary ODU receives the traffic from master ODU.
In normal working operation the traffic from the IDU is sent to the main ODU which
then reroutes it to the second ODU via direct ODU-ODU connection.
ACM is synchronized between the two channels.

FPMR 2+0 Load Sharing with two cables

In 2+0 load sharing (Radio link aggregation) configuration, the traffic is transmitted
over two radio channels (Fig. 8).
The radio link aggregation function ensures that the traffic coming from the IDU port
is shared among the two radio channels.
WARNING
2+0 Load sharing is the possibility to increase the transported capacity of a
radio link splitting the data traffic in two channels with 2+0 configuration. The
two channels have two different frequencies f1 and f2 (Fig. 8).
ACM works independently among the two radio links.
High priority traffic is preserved; low priority traffic is discarded when the RF pipes
reduce.
The main ODU is defined as the ODU that receives the traffic from IDU in normal
working conditions; secondary ODU receives the traffic from master ODU.
In normal working operation the traffic from the IDU is sent to the master ODU which
then splits it and reroutes part of it to the second ODU via direct ODU-ODU
connection

WARNING
The two ODUs configured in the Protection Group must be interconnected by
means of the ODU-ODU interconnection cable.
The master ODU algorithm splits the traffic among the two RF Channels considering
the size of each pipe. The master ODU "scheduler and congestion avoidance
mechanism" ensures that the high priority traffic is kept when the two pipes reduce
their sizes due to ACM intervention.
In case of master ODU HW failure, the IDU reroute the traffic over the secondary
ODU.
In case of Secondary ODU failure, the main ODU interrupts the traffic flow to and
from the secondary ODU.
The ODU QoS algorithm preserves 50% of the traffic (high priority traffic).

In case of HW failure, only the failure of the ODU that is not connected to the IDU is
protected.
Half of the capacity is saved on the remaining polarization (H/V), according to QoS
criteria.

Further considerations about 2+0 Load Balancing

Load Balancing feature is available with two system types:


2+0 Frequency Diversity (2+0 FD)

Normal conditions:
Total Net Throughput = (Net Throughput link 1) + (Net Throughput link
2)

Protection:
Hardware Failure
Fading

2+0 Cross-Polarization (2+0 XPIC)

Normal conditions:
Total Net Throughput = (Net Throughput link 1) + (Net Throughput link
2)
Frequency Optimization

Protection:
Hardware Failure
Polarized interference

The Load Balancing feature makes the FlexiPacket MultiRadio unique in the market
for the following characteristics:
1) Independency of the Indoor Units (IDUs)

No hardware/software upgrade in IDUs for supporting the feature

The processing associated to the feature is completely handled by the FPMR


in an automatic manner (single pipe between the IDUs)

The IDU only implements a single LPG

2) Independency of the single radio link from each other

The two radio links are completely independent in terms of modulation.

3) Efficient proprietary protocol

16

The load balancing of traffic among the two radio links is managed by a
proprietary protocol, which allows for a complete usage of link net throughput
(no inefficiency due to overhead as for LACP in LAG, no hashing mechanisms
involved)

FT48994EN04GLA0
2012 Nokia Siemens Networks

Configurations and Protections

According to the type of license (which fixes the maximum capacity to be transmitted
by the FlexiPacket MultiRadio) and the available capacity over air (depending on the
channel bandwidth and the modulation scheme) two different traffic protection modes
are available:
2+0 maximum throughput

In normal conditions each ODU transmits half of the payload of a 2+0 link

In case of failure, the second ODU is configured (bandwidth) to be able in to


preserve the total payload of the 2+0 link

2+0 minimum bandwidth

In normal conditions each ODU transmits half of the payload of the 2+0 link

In case of failure of one ODU, the second ODU is configured (bandwidth) to


preserve half of the total payload of the 2+0 link

1.1.9.1

2+0 maximum throughput examples

Example 1

Fig. 12 Example1
Nokia Siemens Networks

Both ODUs have a 200 Mps license and are set to ACM between min 16 QAM and
max 256 QAM. In normal condition each ODU transmits 100 Mbs with 256 QAM (200
Mps in total).
In case of failure of one ODU, the other ODU, working again with the 256 QAM,
increases the total amount of throughput up to 200 Mbps. The link is not affected.

level set for ACM) and the behavior is hitless for high priority traffic.

1.1.9.3

Comparison with the HSBY system type

Both 2+0 modes, thanks to the possibility to directly integrate the two ODUs on one
Dual Pol. Antenna, does not introduce HSBY (balanced/unbalanced) losses, and
provide protection to fading (with load sharing) and hw failures.

System Integrated inside FlexiBTS: 1+1 HSBY standalone

This protection mode is applicable to BTS but in general can be used with generic
L2 devices.
The BTS (or L2 device, or IDU) is supposed to be basically unaware of the
presence of a protected radio link (1+1 HSBY).
The decision about which ODU is active at a given moment is taken
autonomously by the ODUs according to the configurations (Main/Protection and
Revertive/Unrevertive) and the status of the ODU.
The mechanism is based on CCM messages exchanges between the two ODUs.
The ODUs are connected via ODU-ODU cable.
In case of HW fault the protection ODU becomes main and starts
transmitting/receiving. The correspondant cable carries the traffic from IDU/BTS to
ODU.

The BTS (or L2 device, or IDU) is supposed to be basically unaware of the presence
of a protected radio link (2+0 XPIC w/ load sharing).
Both the ODUs are active at the same time. Only one cable carries the payload to the
main ODU. The second cable is for protection purposes.
The mechanism is based on CCM messages exchanges between the two ODUs.
The ODUs are connected via ODU-ODU cable.

Link Aggregation Group (LAG)

Link aggregation grouping allows multiple links to be aggregated together to form a


Link Aggregation Group (LAG).
A MAC client treats the LAG as if it is a single logical link. For bridge functionality, the
LAG is considered as a single bridge port. LAG consists of N parallel full duplex
point-to-point links.
LAG provides the following main functionality:

Increased bandwidth: the capacity of multiple links is combined into one logical
link.

Linearly incremental bandwidth

Increased availability: a failure in one of the links will result in the traffic being
redistributed among the other active member links.

G.8031 Ethernet Protection Switching (2.0EP1)

This protection scheme is according to ITU-T G.8031.


It is a E2E protection mechanism.
Principle: a protected service has a working and a protection path.
The End points exchange CCM to monitor the status of the path.
Following features are supported in FPH800 R2.0 EP1 linear protection:

FPH800 R2.0 EP1 supports 80 protected services which can ensure less than
400ms switch-over time upon a failure on the path of these services. For only
1 service failed, the protection time is less than 50ms; For all services failed at
the same time, the protection time is less than 400ms

Both revertive switch mode and non-revertive mode are supported. In revertive
mode, when the working path is repaired, traffic will switch back to working
path after WTR (Wait to Restore) time expires. In non-revertive mode, when
the working path is repaired, traffic will still stay at protection path. Revertive
mode is the default mode.

Following end to end commands are supported


Lockout of protection - This command prevents a working signal from
being selected from the protection transport entity. This effectively
disables the protection group.
Force switch normal traffic signal-to-protection - Forces normal traffic
signal to be selected from the protection transport entity when there is
no failure on protection path.
Manual switch normal traffic signal-to-protection - In the absence of a
failure of a working and a protection transport entity, forces normal
traffic signal to be selected from the protection transport entity.
Clear - Clears the active near end Lockout of Protection, Forced Switch,
Manual Switch, and WTR state.

Hold off timer.


-

Range of the hold off timer is 0 to 10 seconds in steps of 100 ms. The default
value for hold off time is 0.
