3900 Series Base Station Product Description 1 Introduction
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
To keep abreast of rapidly advancing mobile communications technologies, mobile operators
are continually seeking partners who provide cutting-edge technologies to set up high-quality,
multimode-enabled, and future-oriented mobile networks efficiently and cost-effectively.
With this aim in mind, Huawei developed 3900 series base stations, which are designed based
on a high-performance platform and use an optimized hardware and software architecture.
These base stations can work in multiple modes due to their cutting-edge modular design.
They also have broad bandwidth and are eco-friendly and easily upgradeable.
Specifically, 3900 series base stations use the newly developed power amplifiers (PAs),
provide the temperature control function, and employ the innovated power saving technique.
In addition, by adopting the cutting-edge modular design, 3900 series base stations use
multimode modules with different appearances to meet requirements in various conditions.
Thanks to all these merits of 3900 series base stations, mobile operators can set up
high-quality, multimode-enabled, and future-oriented mobile networks and capital
expenditure (CAPEX) on site acquisition, capacity expansion, and environment protection can
be greatly reduced.
Different types of 3900 series base stations can be delivered on request because the newly
designed modules and auxiliary devices can be flexibly combined and configured.
Figure 1-1 shows the different types of 3900 series base stations.

Figure 1-1 3900 series base station types
This document focuses on the BTS3900, BTS3900A, BTS3900L, BTS3900AL, BTS3900C, and
DBS3900 only. For a description of the other types of 3900 series base stations, see the product
description for the base station in question.

1.2 Benefits
Smooth Evolution
Upgrading from Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) to Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System (UMTS) and then to Long Term Evolution (LTE) is easy thanks
to the following factors:
 In SRAN7.0 or earlier: A BBU3900 is equipped with different boards, among which
some work in one mode and the others work in another mode. The BBU3900 can process
services for both of these modes. With two BBUs, the triple-mode application can be
achieved.
 In SRAN8.0: The GSM, UMTS, and LTE modes share one BBU3900.
 Developed with the Software-defined radio (SDR) technique, RF modules can work in
GU, GL, or UL dual-mode. SDR RF modules and single-mode RF modules can be
installed in the same cabinet to achieve multimode and multi-band applications.
Energy-Efficient and Eco-Friendly

Thanks to their small size and modular design, PAs do not take up much space in the
equipment room and power resources are saved with the new power-saving technique.
The following measures also help save energy:
 RF channels are blocked and PA voltage is adjusted if the downlink load reaches a preset
threshold.
 The power supply unit (PSU) shuts down if the base station is provided with sufficient
power.
 The temperature control function controls board temperature, outdoor cabinets use a
direct ventilation system, and RRUs adopt the natural heat dissipation mechanism.
Low CAPEX
In terms of the CAPEX for devices
 3900 series base stations use one set of multimode devices to support multimode
applications.
 An external reference clock and transmission resources are shared across modes on a
3900 series base station, reducing the CAPEX for transmission resources and external
clock sources.
 Various types of radio frequency (RF) modules are introduced, for example,
software-defined radio (SDR) RF modules supporting antenna-sharing, dual-transmitter
RF modules supporting the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, and
single-transmitter RF modules with high power and large capacity.
 The GU or GL refarming feature is introduced to facilitate the evolution from GSM to
UMTS, and LTE and eventually to save the CAPEX for evolution.
In terms of operation and maintenance (O&M), different modes on a single 3900 series base
station share the same auxiliary devices and are managed by the same network management
system, which greatly reduces O&M costs. The O&M manpower required is also reduced,
because 3900 series base stations are easy to install and maintain and it is easy to expand their
capacities.

High Transmission Reliability and High Board Performance

The following features are introduced to ensure high transmission reliability and high board
performance:
 Support for the Huawei SingleBTS platform
 Support for Co-Radio Resource Management (Co-RRM), Co-Transmission Resource
Management (Co-TRM), Co-Operation and Management (Co-OAM), and Co-Radio
Network Plan&Radio Network Optimization (Co-RNP&RNO)
 Support for route backup. Transmission paths can be switched over to protect
high-priority service data.
 Support for the backup of important boards and power modules

base stations locally or remotely using the GBTS SMT, BSC LMT, NodeB LMT, eNodeB
LMT, or U2000, as shown in Figure 4-1.

Figure 4-1 O&M system structure for separate-MPT base stations
For such base stations, the O&M system consists of the following:
 GBTS SMT: locally manages one GBTS. O&M personnel use network cables to connect
the PC running the GBTS SMT to the O&M port of the GBTS that the GBTS SMT will
manage.
 BSC LMT: remotely manages multiple GBTSs. O&M personnel use the BSC LMT to
remotely manage multiple GBTSs in a centralized manner.
 NodeB LMT: manages one NodeB. O&M personnel can use network cables to connect
the PC running the NodeB LMT to the O&M port of the NodeB that the NodeB LMT
will manage. Alternatively, O&M personnel can remotely manage a NodeB through
O&M channels by connecting the PC running the NodeB LMT to the NodeB.
 eNodeB LMT: manages one eNodeB. O&M personnel can use network cables to connect
the PC running the eNodeB LMT to the O&M port of the eNodeB that the eNodeB LMT
will manage. Alternatively, O&M personnel can remotely manage an eNodeB through
O&M channels by connecting the PC running the eNodeB LMT to the eNodeB.
 U2000: Huawei central O&M system. It centrally manages multiple base stations,
provides a data configuration device called Configuration Management Express (CME),
and incorporates the alarm monitoring, performance monitoring, software update, and
inventory device management functions.

O&M systems for 3900 series base stations in SRAN8.0 manage co-MPT base stations locally
or remotely using SRAN LMT and U2000, as shown in Figure 4-2.
Figure 4-2 O&M system structure for a co-MPT base station
For such base stations, the O&M system consists of the following:
 SRAN LMT: configure and maintain a BTS, NodeB, or eNodeB. O&M personnel can
use an Ethernet cable to connect the PC running the SRAN LMT to the O&M port on a
base station. Alternatively, they can remotely manage the base station by connecting the
