System Architecture
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 signal is transmit-
19
ted to the RRU via fiber or local connection. The RRU performs
radio modulation, amplification and filtration on the signal, an
then the signal is radiated through the antenna and received
by access terminals.
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 signal is
transmitted to ZXMBW B9100 through fiber or local connection. The ZXMBW B9100 decodes the signal, and sends the
signal to core network via R6 interface.
Signal Flows
Service Signal Flow
In ZXMBW B9100, control plane signal flow and 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
The service signal from CN flows through AGW and into the CSIM
board via R6 interface. After Ethernet switch, it is distributed to
MPXM, MPIM and WBPM to finish the MAC and PHY processing of
baseband modulation, and then sent to RRU through the baseband-RF optical interface.
Reverse Signal
Flow
Figure 11 shows the reverse signal flow.

FIGURE 11 RESERVE SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW
The RF signal from MS flows into WBPM board through the baseband-RF optical interface. After Ethernet switch, MPXM, MPIM and
WBPM completes the MAC and PHY processing of baseband demodulation. Finally, the signal is sent to AGW via the R6 interface
in CSIM board.
Clock Signal Flow

ZXMBW B9100 system clock is wholly distributed by TFM.
TFM processes received satellite signals and outputs PP1S, 4CHIP
and SerDes clock signals. Afterwards, it distributes these clock
signals to each board of 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 PM via its panel inlets. PM processes and outputs voltages of
12 V and 3.3 V for distribution into each board in the cabinet.
Ventilation and
Heat-dissipation Principles
ZXMBW B9100 adopts forced aircooling with front intake and
rear exhaust. It is equipped with 3 separated fan units.
22
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.
Figure 13 shows the air flow in the ZXMBW B9100 air channel.

ZXMBW B9100 and AGW

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

illustrated in Figure 14.
FIGURE 14 ZXMBW B9100-AGW STAR NETWORKING
Every ZXMBW B9100 is connected to AGW through transmission

medium, which facilitates network maintenance and engineering
installation because of high line reliability.
25
One BS Connected
to Multiple AGWs
To improve the reliability and AGW disaster recovery capability,

one BS is connected to multiple AGWs. Both layer 2 and layer 3
exchanges between BS and AGWs are supported.
1. In layer 2 mode,
One BS is connected to multiple AGWs through a layer 2 switch,
as illustrated 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 with interface IP addresses of these AGWs. Because all
media plane and signaling plane packets sent to an AGW should
be transferred by the interface of the AGW, the corresponding
route table should be configured in MPXM.
2. In layer 3 mode,
The external IP address of MPXM, interface IP addresses, signaling IP addresses and media plane IP addresses of AGWs can
be in different subnets. In this mode, the media plane and signaling plane packets sent to any AGW should be only routed to
the external router connected to the MPXM because of simple
configuration of MPXM.
Figure 16 illustrates the layer 3 connectivity mode.

R6 Interface
Signal
Transmitting
Mode
The signaling between the BS and the ASN-GW is transmitted

through the R6 Channel. It adopts a format of User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) plus the format defined by the NWG stage 3. Encapsulation channel protocol bears media layer data. R6 signaling
bearer is UDP R6 data bearer can be Generic Routing Encapsulation
(GRE), Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Virtual Local
Area Network (VLAN). ASN-GW terminates the R6 channel from
the BS. R6 channel can be realized through different Encapsulation techniques GRE, MPLS or VLAN and the channel granularities
may differ. The data routing function of R6 supports negotiation
between the encapsulation protocol and the channel granularity.

QoS - Quality of Service
The performance specification of a communications channel or system. QOS may be quantitatively indicated by channel or system
performance parameters, such as signal-to-noise ratio (S/N), bit
error ratio (BER), message throughput rate, and call blocking probability. QOS is a subjective rating of telephone communications
quality in which listeners judge transmissions by qualifiers, such
as excellent, good, fair, poor, or unsatisfactory.
RRU - Remote Radio Unit
rtPS - real-time Polling Service
SS - Subscriber Station
TCA - Traffic ChannelAssignment Message
TDD - Time Division Duplex
A transmission method that uses only one channel for transmitting
and receiving, separating them by different time slots. No guard
band is used. This increases spectral efficiency by eliminating the
buffer band, but also increases flexibility in asynchronous applications. For example, if less traffic travels upstream, the time slice
for that direction can be reduced, and reallocated to downstream
traffic.
