1. Board re-power on function
When the software of a board fails to reset, implement poweroff reset to the board power supply through the CSIM board.
10
The CSIM board controls over MPIM, MPXM, WBPM and TFM,
while it cannot control the other boards.
2. Board in-position detection function
The CSIM board communicates with the other boards to judge
whether the boards run normally. To learn a more real running
status of the boards, the CSIM board can implement in-position
detection of each board through the backplane or the connection cable.
3. Board reverse insertion prevention function
If a board is inserted upside down, the board fails to contact
the backplane normally so as to protect the equipment from
damage.
4. Power over-voltage, over-current and inverse connection protection function
5. Backup strategy
The CSIM, TFM and PM boards support the operation mode

of 1+1 active/standby hot backup.
The baseband boards support load sharing.

Architecture
Figure 9 illustrates the ZXMBW B9100 system architecture.

FIGURE 9 SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Signal Flow
Forward Service
The ZXMBW B9100 receives the forward service from AGW
through R6 interface, and implements signal coding and
modulation. After that the coded and modulated signals are
19
transmitted to the RRU through fiber or local connection. The

RRU performs radio modulation, amplification and filtration on
the signals, and then sends the signals to the access terminal
through the antenna.
Reverse Service
The antenna receives the reverse service that from access terminals, and passes the service to the RRU. The RRU performs
radio demodulation on the service. The demodulated signals
are transmitted to ZXMBW B9100 through fiber or local connection. The ZXMBW B9100 decodes the signal, and sends the
signal to core network through the R6 interface.
Signal Flows
Service Signal Flow
In ZXMBW B9100, the control plane signal flow and the media
plane signal flow are combined into one signal flow.
Forward Signal
Flow
Figure 10 shows the forward service signal flow.

FIGURE 10 FORWARD SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW
20
Chapter 2 Working Principle
The service signals from the CN flows from the AGW into the CSIM
board through the R6 interface. After the signals pass the Ethernet
switch, they are distributed to MPXM, MPIM and WBPM boards to
implement MAC and PHY processing of baseband modulation. The
signals are then sent to RRU through the baseband-RF interface.
Reverse Signal
Flow
Figure 11 shows the reverse signal flow.

FIGURE 11 RESERVE SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW
The RF signals from the MS flow into the WBPM board through the
baseband-RF interface. After the signals pass the Ethernet switch,
they are distributed to the MPXM, MPIM and WBPM boards for MAC
and PHY processing of baseband demodulation. Finally, the signals
are sent to the AGW through the R6 interface of the CSIM board.
Clock Signal Flow

The ZXMBW B9100 system clock is wholly distributed by the TFM
board.
The TFM board processes the received satellite signals and outputs
PP1S, 4CHIP and SerDes clock signals. Afterwards, it distributes
these clock signals to each board of the ZXMBW B9100, as shown
in Figure 12.
21
FIGURE 12 CLOCK SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION
Power Distribution
The external -48 V power supply goes through the DC power cable
to the PM panel through its panel inlet. The PM panel processes
and outputs 12 V and 3.3 V into the boards in the chassis.
Ventilation and Heat

Dissipation Principles
ZXMBW B9100 adopts forced air-cooling with front intake and rear
exhaust. It is equipped with 3 separated fan units.
22
Chapter 2 Working Principle
The cool air blows into the cabinet through the air intake vent at
the bottom and goes upwards through the air exhaust vent at top.

ZXMBW B9100 and AGW

Networking
One AGW
Connected to
Multiple BSs
ZXMBW B9100 supports the star networking mode with AGW, as

shown in Figure 14.
FIGURE 14 ZXMBW B9100-AGW STAR NETWORKING
Each ZXMBW B9100 is connected to the AGW through the transmission medium. This networking mode facilitates network maintenance and engineering installation. The signals are transferred
for very few times, so the line reliability is high.
25
One BS Connected
to Multiple AGWs
To improve the reliability and AGW disaster recovery capability,

one BS can be connected to multiple AGWs. Both layer 2 and
layer 3 switches are supported between BS and AGWs.
1. In layer 2 mode:
One BS is connected to multiple AGWs through a layer 2 switch,
as shown in Figure 15.
FIGURE 15 BS CONNECTED
TO
MULTIPLE AGWS
VIA
LAYER 2 SWITCH
In this mode, the external IP address of MPXM is in the same

subnet as the IP addresses of the AGW interfaces. Because all
media plane and signaling plane packets that are sent to an
AGW should be transferred by the AGW interface, the corresponding route table must be configured in MPXM.
2. In layer 3 mode:
The external IP address of MPXM, the AGW interface IP addresses, the signaling IP addresses and the media plane IP addresses of AGWs can be in different subnets. In this mode, the
configuration of MPXM is simple. The media plane and signaling plane packets that are sent to any AGW need to be routed
only to the external router that is connected to the MPXM.
Figure 16 shows the layer 3 mode.

R1
Air interface between the MSS and the ASN. It may

implement the management plane functions.
R3
The interface between the ASN and CSN. It may

contain the control and bearer plane protocols.
R4
Interface between ASN gateways (AGWs). It

implements the control and bearer plane protocols
that are related to mobility between AGWs.
R6
Interface between the BS and the AGW. It is an

ASN internal interface, which implements a series
of control and bearer plane protocols.
R7
Internal interface of the AGW.
R8
Interface between BSs. It is used for fast seamless

handoff. It implements a series of control and

R6 Interface
R6 interface defines the processing flow between BS and ASN-GW.
The signaling between the BS and the ASN-GW is transmitted
through the R6 tunnel in the format of User Datagram Protocol
(UDP) plus the signaling format defined by NWG stage 3. The media plane data is borne over the encapsulation tunnel protocol.
UDP bears R6 signaling. Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE),
Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Virtual Local Area
Network (VLAN) bears R6 data.
The ASN-GW terminates the R6 tunnel from the BS. The R6 tunnel
can adopt various encapsulation technologies, such as GRE, MPLS
and VLAN, and different tunnel granularities are allowed. The R6
data path supports encapsulation protocol and tunnel granularity
negotiation.
