The hybrid Iub interface consists of the following connectivity:
• ATM/PCM connectivity for R99, HSDPA, or HSUPA signaling and OAM traffic
• IP/Ethernet connectivity for HSPA traffic (HSDPA + HSUPA, or HSDPA only)
Note: Hybrid Iub bandwidth pools resiliency (default configuration)
When IP connectivity is lost, new HSPA calls are transferred on the ATM path.
If the ATM path is configured into separate pools (one dedicated for HSPA on IP, the
other shared with R99 on ATM), and the dedicated pool fails, then new HSPA calls are
put in the shared pool.
The hybrid Iub interface requires an xCCM module ((xCCM-4E1 or xCCM-GE hardware
configuration)
Hybrid Iub backhauling can be optimized using Alcatel-Lucent 9500 Microwave Packet
Radio (MPR).
Native IP Iub
The native IP Iub interface consists of a full IP/Ethernet transport on an Iub interface.
When a native IP Iub feature is deployed, the ATM/PCM connectivity is no longer used
on Iub.

The native Iub interface requires an xCCM module (xCCM-GE hardware configuration)
PCM connection cables

D-sub connectors are located on the bottom of the 9311 Macro V1 OD cabinets.
The PCM cable is connected to the Iub port on the Node B bulkhead and to the
distribution frame.
Note: PCM cables vary according to the use of an iCCM or an xCCM module.
In the case of a 120-ohm network, the only equipment needed to ensure the PCM
connection is the 120-ohm PCM cable.
In the case of a 75-ohm network, it is necessary to have baluns (two baluns per PCM) to
ensure adaptation from the 120 ohm of the Node B to the 75 ohm of the customer
network. Two types of baluns can be used: BNC, 1.6/5.6, or SMZ type 43.

Channel Element Module (CEM)

Introduction
The CEM (also called alpha CEM) is located in the BTS digital shelf. In full
configuration (future release), the highest number of CEMs is six.
Main functions
The CEM performs digital signal processing for both Tx and Rx paths. The CEM
processes all types of UMTS physical channel in both uplink and downlink directions.
According to the type of physical channels, the processing is different. High-rate data
channels require much more processing power than low-rate speech channels. The
architecture of the CEM is well adapted to the UMTS physical channel diversity. The
CEM hardware is designed to support up to two UMTS frequencies for three-sector
operation and two-branch transmit and receive diversity per sector.
The CEM allows up to three ways softer hand-off. It manages a signal delay adjustment
to compensate for delay through the BTS transmission path. A rake receiver is used to
comprise classical DLLs, searcher, and finger assignment algorithms.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Core Controller Module (CCM)

Introduction
The CCM is located in the Node B digital shelf. In complete configuration, the highest
number of CCMs is two.
Main functions
The CCM provides the control and data routing functions for the Node B.
The CCM provides the following functions:
• Iub interface
• Call processing
• Data switching and routing
• OAM management
• Node B frequency and timing reference
One CCM supports up to three wide-band carriers with transmit and receive diversity in a
tri-sectored carrier configuration.
The CCM consists of three cards:
• BTS Router Interface Controller (BRIC)
• Advanced Switch Engine (AXE)
• CCM Interconnect Card (CCMIC)
BRIC
The BRIC provides the main processing and controls for the Node B. This card provides
the interfaces to the RNC through 8 T1/E1 links carrying ATM Iub.
The BRIC operates ATM internally (AAL2 for traffic, AAL5 for signaling and OAM) and
supports ATM AAL2/AAL5 backhaul to the RNC.
AXE
The AXE board provides the interface between the BRIC, the TRMs and the CEMs and
optionally receives timing reference signals from the GPSAM. The AXE functions
include Base-band signal routing and addition of signals between the CEMs and TRMs,
an ATM switch and timing reference distribution.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
CCMIC
The CCMIC, which is a mini backplane, joins the interfaces between the BRIC and the
AXE boards. The CCMIC connects with CEM/TRM slots and a timing reference module
through the digital backplane.

integrated Core Controller Module (iCCM)

Introduction
The iCCM is the second generation of CCM used in all Node B products. It is based on a
single PCB design, whereas the CCM is based on a two-PCB design.
Main functions
The iCCM functionalities are similar to the CCM's, but it further provides the duplex
configuration (iCCM redundancy), as follows:
• In case of switch-over, all communications are lost. But the OMC-B (the OAM part
which manages the Node B) is kept synchronized between active and passive iCCM.
• When the iCCM is activated, it needs to be configured only by RNC.
• The new call is established.
The following functions change in comparison with the CCM:
• HSSPC: five HSSPC2 operating in dual device turbo have replaced the nine HSSPC2
operating in the single device turbo mode on the CCM
• New routing table compared to the CCM: Rlink and Flink driver replaced by BBlink
• Network FPGA on iCCM replaces Time Switch on CCM
• The PSC functions is replaced by matching BSP function
One iCCM supports up to three wide-band carriers with transmit and receive diversity in
a tri-sectored carrier configuration.
The iCCM board is packaged into a dual slot iCCM module (iCCM board + filler board)
whose size is similar to the CCM module (50 mm wide).
The connectors on the front panel are the following:
• One E1/T1 connector (44-pin D-sub female connector) used for E1/T1 connection
• Two timing reference ports (SMB connector) for Node B commissioning labeled 10
MHz and ES_Out (Even Second Output)
• One reset button

functionalities:
• CPRI compatibility through the “xCCM radio interface Board (xCOB)” (p. 6-53)
• HSDPA/HSUPA traffic separation
• Hybrid Iub interface
• Native IP Iub interface
Like the iCCM-2, the xCCM board is packaged into a dual slot xCCM module (xCCM
board + filler board or extension board) which size is similar to the iCCM-2 module
(50-mm wide).
The xCCM is composed of the following boards:
• The Control and Base-Band (CBB) board that manages the base-band routing and
summing, and up to nine HSSL links on the digital backplane
• The Media Dependent Adaptor (MDA) mezzanine board for transport functions.
Two hardware configurations are available:

xCCM radio interface Board (xCOB)

Introduction
The xCCM radio interface Board (xCOB) is the radio interface for the xCCM module. It
is the board allowing to connect CPRI radio units (TRDU and RRH) to an xCCM
controller, through CPRI protocol on an electrical interface (TRDU) or an optical
interface (RRH).
The xCOB is an extension board of the xCCM module.
Note: The xCOB is only supported with the xCCM version of the controller module.
The configuration with the eCCM is planned in future release.
The xCOB board is used to support the TRDU60-21 in the 9311 Macro Node-B.
Support of RRH will be planed for future releases.
Contact your local Alcatel-Lucent customer support team for details concerning the
compatibility of the xCOB with the radio module types.
No blending between xCOB/TRDU and MCPA/DDM/TRM is allowed in the Macro
Node B.
Main functions
The xCOB provides the following functionalities:
• It adds CPRI interfaces to the existing xCCM module.
• In case of optical interface :
– On downlink, this module converts the electrical signals coming from the xCCM
backplane into CPRI optical signals and sends them to the MC-TRX, or RRH (in a
future release).
– On uplink, the xCOB converts the optical CPRI signals coming from the
MC-TRX or RRH into electrical signals and sends them to the xCCM through the
backplane.
– It reports alarms concerning the optical transceivers.
– It manages Laser emission on/off.
• In case of electrical interface:
– The xCOB drives electrical links.
– On uplink, the xCOB converts the CPRI signals coming from the TRDU into
electrical signals and sends them to the xCCM through the backplane.
– On downlink, the xCOB converts the electrical signals coming from the xCCM
backplane into CPRI signals, to send them towards TRDU.
• It reports the xCOB inventory data via Dallas 1-Wire bus Presence detection pin for
xCCM.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
• It reports DC (3.3V) fault detection.
• It performs internal CPRI selection and loop-back control.
Note: One xCOB drives up to six optical fibers to RRH or six electrical links to
TRDU 60W or three electrical links to TRDU 60W and three optical links to
MC-TRX.
The 9311 Macro Node-B can be configured with up to 6 TRDU60-21 modules providing
support for up to 3 sectors x 4 carriers and all possible radio configurations:
• STSR1 (3xTRDU60-21)
• STSR1+1 (6xTRDU60-21)
• STSR2+1(6xTRDU60-21)
• STSR2+2 (6xTRDU-21)
The xCOB is a 25mm width face-plate card. It is plugged in the 50mm mini backplane of
the xCCM module, removing the 25mm filler on the right side of the xCCM board.
The xCOB will be installed on-site by replacing the existing filler unit.

Figure 6-18 xCOB and xCCM modules
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The communication between the xCCM and xCOB is done through the mini-backplane of
the xCCM module.
As no blending between TRDU and MCPA is supported in the same cabinet, upgrading
9311 Macro Node-B cabinet with xCOB and TRDU60-21 implies removing the following
existing modules:
• MCPA(s)
• DDM
• TRM
• Associated cabling
The xCOB interfaces are
• The digital shelf, it provides:
– –48-V DC power supply
– Six differential pairs CPRI High Speed Serial Links
– One bus for remote inventory, alarm reporting and optic transceiver control if use
of optical interface is used
– One I2C Bus from xCCM for alarm and control functions
– One Presence Detect line for Module insertion/de-insertion
• The front panel, it provides:
– Two corporate LEDs
– Twelve status green LEDs with control and alarm information
– Six CPRI bi-directional optical or electical data links

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Transceiver Receiver Module (TRM)

Overview
The TRM is located in the Node B digital shelf. In complete configuration, the Node B
cabinet supports up to four TRMs.
Alcatel-Lucent provides the following TRM module types:
• The TRM 1900, which delivers up to four PCS 1900 (W-CDMA) carriers on a single
output including control loop to fix the level at MCPA input.
• The TRM 2100, which delivers up to four UMTS (W-CDMA) carriers on a single
output including control loop to fix the level at MCPA input.
The two TRM types have the same functionalities.
Main functions
The TRM contains the transmit/receive circuitry for three transmitting chains and six
receiving chains.
Downlink path
The TRM (dTRM) receives up to six signals from the CCM. These downlink samples are
transferred to the Tx channelizers. The channelizers perform chip level modulation, peak
power reduction, filtering, and then deliver the signals (three maximum) to the D/A
converters of the TRM (rTRM).
In the analog domain, the digital signals are transformed into RF signals through D/A
conversion, modulation, filtering/amplification and translation operations. The final RF
signals have the appropriate level to drive the MCPA.
The total transmitted power is proportional to the data rate of the codes and the number of
these codes (communications). A power control adjusts each RF signal to optimize the
total interference level noise between the Node B and the user equipment.
Uplink branch
The uplink branch handles three pair-received signals (main and diversity) that comes
from the antenna via a coupling system which separates transmission from reception.
These signals are filtered, amplified, demodulated, A/D converted and then transmitted to
the Rx channelizers in the digital domain.
The receiving channelizer receives the six A/D converter signals. It processes the data and
transmits them to the CCM.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Clock generation and recovery operation
The TRM also performs clock generation and recovery operation. The clock is recovered
from the link with the CCM, and sent to the TRM (rTRM). This board generates the clock
signals for the A/D converters of the receiving branch and the A/D converters of the
transmitting branch.
The TRM consists of two boards: dTRM and rTRM.
dTRM
The dTRM includes the following:
• Six Tx channelizers
• Three Rx channelizers
The digital board functions are the following:
• Reception of a maximum of six transmitted signals from the CCM.
It performs the following actions:
– Data samples reception from the CCM
– Data shaping processing
– Driving of three transmitted chains with resulting data samples
• Reception of the six signals from the antennas (main and diversity)
It performs the following actions:
– Chains reception
– Data shaping processing
– Resulting data samples sent to the CCM
• Recovery and distribution of the clock
• Control and monitoring of the radio modules (TRM, MCPA, DDM)
• Supply voltage for radio board
The dTRM includes six Tx channelizers. Each of them is able to support one UMTS
channel, and they can be put in cascade. The transmission possibility is three 3-carrier
signals.
On the Rx side, the dTRM allows the reception of up to six single carrier signals. It can
implement one of the following solutions:
• Reception of one carrier from three sectors
• Reception of three carriers from an omni cell
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
rTRM
The rTRM includes:
• Three wide band transmitters
• Three dual 5 MHz receivers
The radio board performs the following functions:
• In the downlink path:
– Digital-to-analog conversion
– Frequency up-conversion
– Amplification
The rTRM performs the following operations: it receives digital samples from the
dTRM. It converts them into analog signals. It up converts to radio UMTS frequency.
It filters the signal and adjusts the output power for the MCPA input.
• In the uplink path:
– Frequency down-conversion
– Analog-to-digital conversion
It filters the input signal, down-converts, filters and samples it, then transmits the digital
samples to the dTRM.
The rTRM consists of three transmitted paths at the same radio frequency and three
main/diversity paths that can be tuned to three different frequencies.

The front panel has:
• One "Debug" Ethernet connector (RJ-45 type connector)
• One "Reset" button accessible through an eye in the front panel
• Three RF outputs (to MCPAs): "Tx A out", "Tx B out", and "Tx C out" (SMA
connectors)
• Six RF inputs (from DDMs): "Rx in" (radial connectors)
• One interconnection connector for digital communication between RF modules
(D-sub connector)

Introduction
The iTRM is the second generation of Transmit Receive Module. It is based on a
two-PCB design.
Main functions
The iTRM provides the same level of functionality as the TRM. The difference between
the iTRM and the TRM is the new design which consists of an architecture optimization
(direct modulation/demodulation).
The iTRM implementation in an UMTS network is completely transparent from the
operator's point of view.
The iTRM hardware is similar to the TRM hardware. It is compatible with all Node B
products.
The iTRM front panel, like the TRM front panel, has two corporate LEDs indicating the

expandable TRM (xTRM)

Introduction
The xTRM is the third generation of Transmit Receive Module used in the Macro range
Node Bs. The xTRM is an enhancement of the iTRM.
The xTRM-2 is the second generation of xTRM, with higher reliability and lower power
consumption.
Alcatel-Lucent provides the following xTRM module groups:
• The xTRM-2 2100 operates within the same frequency band as the MCPA 45W or
MCPA 60W-A modules.
Note: The xTRM-2 is not compatible with the MCPA 60W-B.
• The xTRM 2100 operates within the same frequency band as MCPA-3 module.
• The xTRM 900 (two carriers) operates within the same frequency band as SCPA 900
55W module.
The xTRM 900 operates in a reduced bandwidth down to 4.2 MHz. This allows GSM
900 MHz interfers to be closer to the UMTS signal, making better use of available
spectrum.
• The xTRM 850 operates within the same frequency band as MCPA 850 module.
Note: In the following sections, the generic term xTRM is used for xTRM (only) or
xTRM/xTRM-2.
Main functions
In comparison with the iTRM, the main enhancements of the xTRM are the following:
• Reception of two frequency carriers, instead of one
• Only with xTRM : integration of the Base Band Pre-Distortion (BBPD) interface
which allows BBPD feedback loop
The xTRM-2 does not support BBPD.
The xTRM is controlled by a PQII processor which controls the Tx and Rx processing
paths.
The xTRM can be configured with:
• xTRM-1R mode: only one carrier in uplink
• xTRM-2R mode: two carriers in uplink
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The xTRM is designed to be configured in xTRM-1R or xTRM-2R modes, in association
with four generations of MCPA modules (MCPA, MCPA-2, MCPA-3, and MCPA 60W)
or the SCPA module:
• In xTRM-1R single-carrier mode (default operation mode), the second carrier is
locked and the xTRM has the same behavior as the iTRM.
• The xTRM-2R dual-carrier mode is optional. This feature allows to use one xTRM
instead of two iTRMs in STSR2, STSR1+1, STSR3, or STSR2+1 configuration.
Contact your local Alcatel-Lucent representative for information about unlocking the
second carrier (the delivery of the WICL Scripts for xTRM Carrier Activation
(UMT/OMC/APP/015801) user guide is subject to the second carrier option payment).
Modules mixity
Alcatel-Lucent does not recommend to mix TRM/iTRM with xTRM modules within the
same Node B cabinet. In order to comply with this recommendation, newly ordered Node
B cabinets should only be equipped with xTRM modules. Concerning current Node B
equipment on customer Node B sites, if specific configurations require a mixity between
TRM/iTRM and xTRM modules, they must comply with the following mixity rules:
• xTRM-2 can be mixed with TRM/iTRM/xTRM, provided the use of MCPA 45W or
MCPA 60W-A.
• xTRM-1R, iTRM, TRM, and MCPA/MCPA-2/MCPA-3 can be mixed in the same
Node B cabinet.
• Configurations mixing iTRM and xTRM-2R are allowed (not recommended). In those
configurations, the iTRM (not configured) is kept as a redundant resource in a
passive/not configured but supervised state.
The xTRM module consists of two boards:
• The digital xTRM board (dxTRM):
The dxTRM performs interface functions to transmit/receive signal samples to/from
iCCM/iCCM-2/xCCM.
The downlink samples are transferred to up to six Tx channelizer Application Specific
Integrated Circuits (ASIC), which perform mainly pulse shaping, frequency shifting
and peak power reduction. Each ASIC can support one UMTS channel. The ASICs
can be cascaded so that the dxTRM transmits:
– Three 1-carrier signals
or
– Three 2-carrier signals
or
– Two 3-carrier signals
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Base-band signals are then processed to enable the pre-distortion of the radio signal,
according to the BBPD algorithm. Three PA feedback chains (one per PA) ensure the
down-conversion and Analog/Digital conversion of the RF TX signals to feed the
BBPD algorithm: this one compares the feedback samples to the transmit samples and
adjust automatically pre-distortion coefficients to minimize the error.
The BBPD processing function is set in transparent mode when xTRM is not
associated with MCPA 60W, but with conventional MCPA (i.e. not using external
feedback loops).
On the uplink, the xTRM allows the reception of up to six dual-carrier signals: it
manages the reception of two contiguous carriers on three sectors, including main and
diversity Rx paths. The dxTRM receives digital samples from the rxTRM (see next
bullet). These samples are digitally matched, filtered, and scaled by six Rx
channelizer ASICs, each one handling one main and one diversity signals.
The dxTRM retrieves configuration information and alarms via I2C buses from DDMs
and Tx splitter.
• The radio xTRM board (rxTRM):
The rxTRM consists of three transmit chains and three dual-receive chains.
On Rx side, radio signals received from DDM are down-converted, filtered, scaled
and then Analog-to-Digital converted. The rxTRM receive function is designed for up
to two UMTS carriers.
On Tx side, the rxTRM performs Digital-to-Analog conversion, frequency
up-conversion and amplification in the downlink direction. The downlink signal
consists of up to three UMTS carriers.

The xTRM front panels are similar to the Figure 6-21, “iTRM front panel” (p. 6-67),
except for three SMA connectors (FB-A, FB-B, and FB-C) added on the xTRM front
panel, for BBPD feedback loop interface.
The following figures show the xTRM and xTRM-2 front panels.

GPS and Alarm Module (GPSAM)

Introduction
The GPSAM is located on the right side of the 9311 Macro V1 OD Node B digital shelf.
Main functions
The GPSAM has two different functions:
• Collection of information about the state of the Node B: alarms, inventory and
presence of FRUs, commissioning
• Supply of timing information
Alarm and inventory management

According to the Node B modules, the GPSAM collects:
• Alarms
• Inventory information
The GPSAM is connected to the CCM through the backplane. The CCM manages the
GPSAM through an I2C bus.
Alarms, remote inventory information, and commissioning information are collected
through a Dallas bus and then stored by the GPSAM. The Dallas bus is connected to the
internal modules of the Node B: GPSAM, cooling unit, rectifiers, SPCM, ac main or
plinth, ac box, interconnection module, external alarm protection module, BIP and MCA.
The inventory information allows the OAM access to know the state of the Node B and
its hardware composition.

The figure above describes the complete configuration.
The front panel of the GPSAM has:
• One "interco link" (RJ-45 type connector) connector used to connect the
interconnection module in case of an extension cabinet
• One "Internal bus" (RJ-45 type connector) connector used for the Node B internal bus
link
• One "External bus" (RJ-45 type connector) connector used for the Node B external
bus link
• One three-position switch: "Base", "Ext. 0", and "Ext. 1" which indicates in which
cabinet (base cabinet, first extension cabinet, or second extension cabinet) the digital
boards are inserted.
• Two "GPS Ant" 15-pin D-sub female connectors for the optional connection of GPS
smart antenna, carrying PPS and data signal.
• Two LEDs that show power and module operational status

9311 Macro V1 OD RF block modules

Introduction
The RF block contains the following modules:
• MCPA
• Tx Splitter (for OTSR configuration)
• DDM
The number of modules depends on the Node B configuration.
In OTSR configuration, the Tx Splitter module is plugged into the MCPA shelf. The
OTSR configuration is only supported in UMTS 2100 (thus no Tx Splitter in UMTS
1900).
The following table gives the name of the RF block modules that are supported by the
9311 Macro V1 OD.

Multi Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA)

Introduction
The MCPAs are located in the MCPA shelf which houses up to six MCPAs. The location
of the MCPA shelf depends on the Node B cabinet type. The MCPA is used to amplify the
Tx signal.
Alcatel-Lucent provides the following MCPA module groups:
• The MCPA 850/MCPA 60W 850 operates within the 869-894 MHz bandwidth, in
UMTS 850.
• The MCPA 1900 (also called PCS 1900 MHz MCPA) operates within the 1930-1990
MHz bandwidth, in UMTS 1900.
• The MCPA/MCPA-2/MCPA-3/MCPA 60W 2100 module operates within the
2110-2170 MHz bandwidth, in UMTS 2100.
Module types
The MCPA module types are the following:
• MCPA
• MCPA-2
• MCPA-3
• MCPA 60W
All MCPAs have the same front panel, functionalities and hardware maintenance. The
main differences concern:
• the power consumption and the related efficiency
• the optimization of the rectifier number
• the PEC:
– NTUM30AA for first generation MCPA module
– NTUM30CA for MCPA-2 module
– NTUM90EA for RoHS compliant MCPA-3 module
– NTUM30WA for RoHS compliant MCPA 60W-B module (or MCPA 60W-BBPD
module)
– NTUM30FM for the RoHS compliant MCPA 60W-A module (or MCPA
60W-Autonomous module)
– NTUM30EA for the MCPA 850 MHz
For more information, refer to Alcatel-Lucent 9311 Macro V1 Node B Outdoor -
Maintenance Guide, (NN-20500-290).
It is possible to mix MCPA, MCPA-2, and MCPA-3 types into the RF block.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
But to gain benefits from the performances of the new generation of MCPA module
(MCPA-3), Alcatel-Lucent recommends not to mix together the three MCPA types.
Functional modes
The three MCPA types include the following functional modes:
• First mode
In this mode, the MCPAs operate in 45 W.
• Second mode
In this reduced mode, the MCPAs operate in 30 W.
The functional mode is selected using specific commands.
The switching between the two modes when MCPA is in operational mode is possible
without passing by shutdown mode.
MCPA-3 main characteristics

The main characteristics of MCPA-3 module are the following:
• Improved efficiency due to reduced power consumption
• Support of three carriers instantaneous bandwidth
Operating mode
The MCPA supports the following operating modes:
• Unknown mode
This mode is used to initialize the micro-controller of the MCPA. The MCPA is in
unknow mode just after the micro-controller reset.
• Manual mode
This mode is activated without need of software commands. The manual mode is
effective if the MCPA is in unknown mode.
• UMTS mode
This mode is the main operating mode for the MCPA. In this mode, the MCPA
responds to messages sent from the Node B interface (TRM) and reports informations
on Node B demand (TRM).
The MCPA 850 operates only with the xTRM 850.
• Software download mode
This mode is effective in unknow mode and is initiated with a command message.
The MCPA download mode feature enables to deliver bug fixes on the field without
going on site.
In UMTS03, the MCPA software download allows to manage one MCPA software
release per MCPA manufacturer.
In UMTS04, the MCPA software download allows to manage all MCPA software
releases from all MCPA manufacturers.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Main functions
The MCPA module provides downlink signal amplification. The aim of the MCPA is to
amplify the RF signal delivered by the TRM.
According to the Node B configuration, the MCPA is connected to the antenna through:
• A duplexer for sectorial configurations
• A Tx splitter for omni-directional configurations
The third generation MCPA modules (MCPA-3) handle from one to three UMTS carriers
(15 MHz operation).
The output level is controlled by a gain control loop (TRM + MCPA) which adjusts the
level at the MCPA input.
The MCPA includes the DC/DC converter for the -48 V DC or +24 V DC power supply
conversion. It also includes a two-input switch for TRM redundancy.
Figure 6-28 MCPA functional block

The front panel of the MCPA module includes one LED indicating the MCPA module
status. The LED is:
• Red if not operational
• Green if operational
So in case of a minor alarm, the LED remains green.
The front panel also includes one "1/0" power switch to switch OFF the input DC supply.
All the external connections are connected to the MCPA through the front panel.
The following figure shows the MCPA front panel.

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware MCPA 60W
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
MCPA 60W
Introduction
The MCPA 60W module has the following characteristics:
• It uses the latest generation of hardware components.
• It is located in the MCPA shelf, which can house up to six MCPA 60W modules.
• It is used to amplify the Tx signal.
• It operates within the following bandwidths:
– UMTS 2100 (2110-2170 MHz)
– UMTS 1700/2100 (2110-2155 MHz)
– UMTS 850 (869-894 MHz)
• It is designed to be used only with xTRM (not compatible with TRM or iTRM).
There are three versions of the MCPA 60W module:
• MCPA 60W-A (for MCPA 60W-Autonomous)
• MCPA 60W-B (for MCPA 60W-BBPD)
There are very few differences between the MCPA 60W-A and the MCPA 60W-B
modules. (See "Only with MCPA 60W-B" in following sections.)
Main functions
The MCPA 60W provides amplification of the RF signals delivered by the xTRM, but
only the MCPA 60W-B delivers feedback signals to the xTRM.
The MCPA 60W allows xTRM redundancy by providing two RF input ports and
switching capability.
The MCPA 60W delivers up to 60 watt nominal composite RF power in order to deliver
45 watt typical RF power to the Node B antenna port.
Only with MCPA 60W-B : compared to the MCPA 30/45W or MCPA 60W-A, the
MCPA 60W-B uses a new architecture based upon the Base Band Pre-Distortion (BBPD)
linearization processing located in the xTRM. This digital pre-distortion technology saves
hardware and improves reliability.
The MCPA 60W handles up to three UMTS carriers (15 MHz maximum instantaneous
bandwidth).
From a functional architecture point of view, the MCPA 60W consists of the following
parts:
• One PA pallet
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The PA pallet amplifies the selected RF signal coming from the xTRM output to the
required output level, and delivers feedback signals to the xTRM with the BBPD
algorithm ( only with MCPA 60W-B).
• One PA control board
The PA control board manages the PA pallet (including the power detection) and the
power supply unit.
• One power supply unit
The power supply unit converts the -48 V DC input voltage to the appropriate
secondary voltages used by the PA pallet and the PA control board.
Main characteristics
Compared to the MCPA 30/45W module, the main characteristics of the MCPA 60W
module are the following:
• Increased output power
• Improved efficiency
• Only with MCPA 60W-B : improved reliability due to the digital pre-distortion
technology (BBPD) embedded in the xTRM
The front panel of the MCPA 60W module has one LED indicating its operational status.
The LED is :
• Green if operational
In case of a minor alarm, the LED remains green.
The front panel also has one "1/0" power switch to switch OFF the input DC supply.
All external connections to the MCPA 60W are made through the front panel.
The following two figures show the MCPA 60W-B and the MCPA 60W-A front panels.

Interconnection interfaces
The front panel includes the following interconnections to the xTRM:
• One "DATA I/O" connector for digital information exchange with the xTRM (25-pin
D-SUB connector)
• Only with MCPA 60W-B : two RF output connectors (FB1, FB2) for the BBPD
linearization feedback signals to xTRM (QMA connectors)
Note: The MCPA 60W-A is a self-linearized MCPA: it does not have BBPD feedback
connectors.
The front panel has one "POWER IN" connector (3-pin 3W3 connector).

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware Transmitter Receiver Duplexer Unit (TRDU)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Transmitter Receiver Duplexer Unit (TRDU)

Introduction
The TRDU module is a complete UMTS Radio Equipment designed to operate in the full
UMTS FDD band I (2100/1900 MHz band). It manages functionalities between base
band CPRI interface and Radio Frequency (RF) air interface.
The 9311 Macro V1 OD is equiped with the TRDU60-21 variant, that delivers 60W
nominal composite output power at module level, and supports up to four adjacent
frequency carriers at 20 MHz instantaneous bandwidth:
• 60W x 1 frequency carrier
• 30W x 2 frequency carriers
Important! Mixity restriction :TRDU model mixity is not allowed within a cluster.
The MCDA shelf consists of up to six TRDU modules maximum.
Each part (left or right) of the sub-rack includes three modules of the same type for
allowable TRDU mixity (eg: 3 x TRDU60-21, or 3 x TRDU60-21B, but not 2 x
TRDU60-21 and 1 x TRDU60-21B).
A group of three modules is assigned to a first sector and the three other modules group is
assigned to a second sector (for example, S1: 3 x TRDU60-21, S2: 3 x TRDU60-21B).
Main functions
The TRDU module integrates the following three functions in a single module:
• Transceiver
• Multi-carrier power amplifier
• Duplexer/filter
The TRDU60–21 module can manage up to four adjacent carriers in UMTS Band I
(2110-2170 MHz in downlink; 1920-1980 MHz in uplink) with the following
characteristics:
• Downlink: one transmit chain supporting up to two adjacent UMTS carriers (carrier
spacing between 4.6 MHz and 5.2 MHz)
• Uplink: dual receive chain in a main/diversity arrangement supporting two adjacent
carriers
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
RF air interface is supported through two antenna connections:
• One duplexed antenna connection supporting transmit and receive main paths
(Antenna Main)
• One single antenna connection supporting receive diversity path (Antenna Div).
Base band interface is supported through two CPRI links, support of CPRI rate 2 (1.2288
Gbps) and HW ready for CPRI rate 3 (2.45 Gbps), for daisy chaining or dual slave
(UMTS + LTE) connection.
The TRDU module includes a DC/DC converter for the -48 V DC power supply
conversion.
The TRDU module incorporates a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) meter to
monitor RF mismatching between antenna and TRDU main antenna connection. This
VSWR meter monitors Return loss at antenna main port connection. Two VSWR
thresholds are monitored, corresponding to two alarm levels reported on CPRI interface.
The TRDU module also provides an Antenna Interface Standard Group (AISG)
functionality.
The following figure illustrates the internal architecture of the TRDU module.
Figure 6-32 TRDU internal architecture
The TRDU module can be used in different modes regarding antenna system, depending
on Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) use and/or AISG Antenna Line Device (ALD) use:
• No TMA mode
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Antenna outputs and antenna(s) are directly connected through RF feeders.
• TMA mode
An additional amplifier is added on each antenna branch in order to compensate
feeder loss on uplink path.
Two sub-modes with TMA can be used:
– TMA UMTS mode: in this mode, the TMA is powered and monitored from the
TRDU module.
– TMA Mix mode: in this mode, the TRDU module manages only extra gain on
uplink paths introduced by the TMA. This mode can be used in case of antenna
sharing with another system (the TMA is powered and monitored from this
system), or in case of AISG TMA (the TMA is powered and monitored by the
AISG primary device).
The TRDU60–21 module is designed as a standalone unit, mounted in a closed metal
housing fitted with a heat sink. It provides two RF coaxial antenna connections, a CPRI
input for connection to the xCCM module, and a CPRI output for future daisy chaining or
dual slave (UMTS and LTE).

Tx Splitter
Introduction
The Tx Splitter is located in the 9311 Macro V1 OD RF block. The 9311 Macro V1 OD
RF block contains one Tx Splitter in OTSR configuration.
Main functions
The Tx Splitter is a passive module and is only used in the OTSR configuration. The Tx
Splitter splits the RF input signal in three identical signals (each signal has the same
energy), thereby feeding three sectors.
The Tx Splitter is powered via the interconnection panel, by a local DC-DC converter in
the TRM.
The antenna and RF feeder configurations are identical between OTSR and STSR.
The Tx Splitter is connected between the MCPA and the DDM shelf. It is designed to be
installed as an alternative module within the MCPA shelf.
The Tx Splitter is intended for operating in the frequency range 2110-2170 MHz and the

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Cooling System
Overview
The cooling system provides the climatic control for the BTS. It consists of one iDACS .
It is used to control the ambient environment of the outdoor enclosure.
The iDACS is installed at the top of the cabinet and is accessed through the front hinged
access doors.
An electronic module, inside the iDACS, controls the cooling and heating functions of the
iDACS. From both the internal cabinet air temperature and the external ambient air
temperature, it then selects the level of environmental control necessary to maintain full
operational performance of the electronic equipment installed within the BTS.
Description
Important! A space is kept empty on each side of the iDACS to let the air flow.
Storage of equipments on either side of the iDACS is forbidden.
The main components of the iDACS are the following:
• Two dc blowers
• One printed circuit assembly for control functions
• One air filter
• One damper
• One modulating dc motor
• One air inlet switch
• Two temperature control sensors
• Two heaters and their associated thermostats

Figure 6-42 iDACS operation principle
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Principles of operation
A damper is used to control the internal air temperature of the BTS.
When fully closed, the damper excludes the outside air and air circulates within the
cabinet.
When the damper is fully open, there is no recirculation within the cabinet, the iDACS
then operates by drawing ambient air that is routed through the electronic equipment
installed in the cabinet and ejected via outlet ducts located at the sides of the iDACS.
At intermediate position, the damper is adjusted automatically to give a mix of
recirculated and external air, to achieve a nominal internal operating temperature of 25°C.
For low external ambient air temperatures, the internal cabinet air temperature is
maintained above +50°C by the operation of one or two heaters.
Modes of operation
The iDACS is able to operate in two modes:
• Non speed control mode: in this mode, fans operate continuously at full speed.
• Speed control mode: in this mode, the iDACS analyzes the external ambient
temperature and automatically selects slow (S) or high (S2) fan speed.
If the ambient external air temperature is below +40°C, the fan speed selection is slow
speed.
Full speed is selected when one of the following conditions occurs:
• Ambient external air temperature exceeds +40°C
• A fault condition exists
LED indicators
The control board of the iDACS monitors the performance of the cooling and heating
circuits.
The operation of the iDACS is monitored with eight LEDs. In normal operation, all the
LEDs must be illuminated and a non illuminated LED is an indication of a failure.
The LEDs are visible from the front panel of the iDACS.
Electrical specification
During normal operation, the iDACS uses its own internal ac/dc rectifying system.

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware 9311 Macro V1 OD Environmental Control Unit (ECU)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Introduction
The Environmental Control Unit is fully integrated into the cabinet. The system is
installed at the top of the cabinet and accessed through the front-hinged access doors.
An electronic monitoring unit monitors the cooling and heating functions of the ECU.
This unit senses both the internal cabinet air temperature and external ambient air
temperature. It then selects the level of environmental control necessary to maintain full
operational performance of the electronic equipment installed within the converged
cabinet.
The main components of the ECU are the following:
• Two DC blowers
• One printed circuit assembly for control functions
• One air filter
• One damper
• One modulating DC motor
• One air inlet switch
• Two temperature control sensors
• Two heaters and their associated thermostats
Operating principle
The cooling air paths within the cabinet operate as follows:
• Air enters at the bottom front section of the right and left doors
• The air is drawn upward within the door and through a filter to the cooling system
• It is pushed through a duct at the rear of the cabinet (Cooling duct)
• It is distributed to the two equipment columns of the cabinet
• Right column: pushed through the sub-rack equipment
• Left column: pushed through the sub-rack equipment
• It is evacuated though the lower front section of the door, or re-circulated through the
cooling system depending on the cooling requirements.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Figure 6-43 ECU operating principle
Operating modes
The cooling unit system is able to operate in the following mode:
• Non-speed control mode
This mode is chosen and no fault condition is detected, fans operate continuously at
high speed (S4). Filter clogged is operational.
• Speed control mode
This mode is chosen when low acoustic noise is required.
Two sets of three speeds (S1/S2/S3 and S5/S6/S7) are available. The selection
between the two sets of speed is made by switch located in the cabinet.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The cooling system senses the external ambient temperature and automatically select
slow (S1 or S5), medium (S2 or S6), or high (S3 or S7) fan speed.
Slow speed operation of the fans (S1 or S5) is selected if the ambient external air
temperature is below +40°C and no fault condition is detected by the cooling system
control PCB.
Medium speed operation of the fans (S2 or S6) is selected if the ambient external air
temperature is above +40°C and no fault condition is detected by the cooling system
control PCB. Under this condition the filter clog alarm is inhibited, it is automatically
reset once the slow fan speed (S1 or S5) has been re-selected by the PCB.
High speed operation of the fans (S3 or S7) is selected if the ambient external air
temperature is above +55°C and no fault condition is detected by the cooling system
control PCB. Under this condition the filter clog alarm is inhibited, it is automatically
reset once the slow fan speed (S1 or S5) has been re-selected by the PCB.
Full speed operation of the fans (S4) is selected if one of the following condition
occurs:
– Single fan failure
– Ambient external sensor failure
LED description
The control board of the ECU monitors the performance of the cooling and heating
circuits.
The cooling system control board is fitted with nine LED failure indicators for on site
maintenance. All LED indicators are green illuminated in normal operation and red
illuminated on indication of the failure.
The LED sequence is as follows:
• Green illuminated = Fan 1 OK
• Green illuminated = Fan 2 OK
• Green illuminated = Heater 1 OK
• Green illuminated = Heater 2 OK
• Green illuminated = Damper OK
• Green illuminated = Filter OK
• Green illuminated = Ambient thermistor OK
• Green illuminated = Internal thermistor OK
• Green illuminated = Internal temperature outside range OK
The LED indicators are visible from the front panel of the cooling system.

Functionality
The SPCM interfaces the rectifier block with BTS loads. It controls the AC power system
and provides a set of features related to control, alarm and inventory capabilities of this
BTS power system.
The SPCM of the 9311 Macro V1 OD - 700 is located in the AC/DC rectifier shelf.
This is achieved by providing the following signal from/to the Base Station:
• Remote control signals from the BTS to the AC power system
• Remote alarm signals from the AC power system to the BTS
• Remote inventory with bi-directional communication between the BTS and its AC
power system
The SPCM is hot swappable, thus no power-down is required.

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA)

Introduction
The TMA is used if the cable length between the cabinet (from DDM) and the associated
antenna is long.
The TMA is optional. It is mounted as close to the antenna as possible.
Alcatel-Lucent provides the following TMA categories:
• TMA 2100
The TMAs 2100 are split into the following TMA types:
– AISG TMA
– Double TMA
– Light TMA
These TMA types support the following frequencies:
– 1920-1980 MHz in the uplink frequency band
– 2110-2170 MHz in the downlink frequency band
• TMA 1900
The TMA 1900 is a single TMA. It supports the following frequencies:
– 1850-1910 MHz in the uplink frequency band
– 1930-1990 MHz in the downlink frequency band
Main functions
The TMA allows to decrease the overall noise level by amplifying the received signal.
In UMTS 2100, the TMA 2100 input/output (from the Node B) is used for transmission
and reception for main or diversity path. One TMA 2100 is used per sector.
In UMTS 1900, two TMAs 1900 are used per sector:
• One TMA 1900 for transmission/reception on main path
• One TMA 1900 for transmission/reception on diversity path
From the Node B point of view, the TMA is managed as a passive component by the
TRM/iTRM. The TMA is active in reception only.
The following figures show the TMA versions that are implemented in the system.

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware Remote Electrical Tilt Automatic (RETA)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Remote Electrical Tilt Automatic (RETA)

Introduction
Alcatel-Lucent RETA solution is based on Kathrein's product and specific Alcatel-Lucent
devices for adaptation to the Node B.
Main functions
The RETA feature allows user to adjust remotely the tilt of any antenna sector from the
OMC-B (over IP) through the Node B.
In case of deployment, the RETA allows:
• Coverage and capacity improvement
• Interference reduction
• A best visual impact by keeping the antenna vertical
RETA system
The RETA system consists in the following devices:
• From Kathrein:
– A controller, named Central Control Unit ( CCU) that can be inserted in the user
space according to the Node B type.
– Motors, named Remote Control Units ( RCU), plugged on each antenna. One
RCU is required per Xpolar antenna (MAIN and DIVERSITY), which means
three RCUs are required for a 3-sector Node B site.
– 3-way splitter to distribute signal and power to three RCUs.
– Control cables to connect splitter to CCU and RCU, and between CCU and
bulkhead.
– Lightning protection device to protect the CCU. These devices must be installed
inside the Node B.
– Earthing clamps (to ensure the grounding of control cables)
• From Alcatel-Lucent (mandatory to ensure proper waterproofing):
– A modified bulkhead (one hole is added for specific RETA connector)
– RET battery filler
– Ethernet, grounding, power, and alarm cables for the CCU
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Figure 6-64 RETA system
The CCU module is connected to:

• The CCM module via the Ethernet 10base T link, on one side
• The RCU module via control cables, on the other side.
For the protecting cables, the CCU is connected to the lightning protection module.
The CCU module is powered by -48 V DC. It is integrated in the User Space and it is
powered from the User ICO.
The following figure shows the CCU front panel.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Figure 6-65 CCU front panel
The CCU configuration and fault management is made through the IP network, enabling
operation at OMC level.
RETA kits
The proposed kits for the 9311 Macro V1 OD are the following:
• Base kit
The base kit houses the CCU module installed into the 9311 Macro V1 OD.
• Line kit
The line kit houses the CCU module connected to the RCU module for the mono
sector configuration.
• Line extension kit
The line extension kit increases configuration from one to three sectors.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Two lengths are proposed for the cable of the RET line kits: 25 m and 40 m. The
customer can choose the most appropriate, according to distance between Node B and
antenna. A 60 m control cable is also proposed separately. However, if none of these
lengths fits the need, the other lengths can be ordered from Kathrein directly.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
9311 Macro V1 OD hardware RETA through feeders
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
RETA through feeders

Introduction
This RETA solution is Antenna Interface Standards Group (AISG) compliant. AISG is a
standard applied to the interface between the CCU and the RCUs.
The AISG signals of RETA run through the RF feeders and no more through an additional
long run AISG cable, thanks to current injectors and layer one converters.
The purpose of this interface is to ensure basic inter-operability of antenna and control
infrastructure.
This RETA kit uses the same usual kit, two additional external elements are added to this
kit:
• Bias Tee AISG (NTUM83GA)
This device comprises an AISG modulator. It receives RS485 signals and DC voltage
from the CCU and put on the RF feeder, the modulated OOK 2.176MHz AISG signal
and DC voltage.
• DC-Stop (NTUM83FA)
This element isolates the diversity RF feeder from DC voltage coming from the
DDM.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Figure 6-66 RETA through feeders presentation
One bias tee is required per sector, on the main path. DC-Stop is added on diversity paths.
Power and control signals of RETA system run through the feeders via a bias tee.
Up to three outputs of the CCU are used. Three control cables are connected to the
bulkhead. AISG Bias Tees and DC-Stop protect these cables. They are placed outside the
9311 Macro V1 OD under the Cable Cover.
The CCU is connected to:
• The iCCM-2 board via an Ethernet 10base T link, on one side (Site LAN)
• AISG antenna network equipment via AISG Bias Tees and control cables, on the other
side

9311 Macro V1 OD hardware Dual Duplexer Sharing Module (DDSM)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Dual Duplexer Sharing Module (DDSM)

Introduction
The DDSM is part of an antenna sharing solution which consists in reusing a GSM
antenna system (antennas + feeders + TMA) when combining a UMTS 900 Node B with
a GSM 900 BTS (9100 MBI or 9100 MBO).
The DDSM (PEC: NTUM40MA) operates within the 900 bandwidth (DDSM 900):
• 925-960 MHz in downlink
• 880-915 MHz in uplink
Main functions
The DDSM is made of one Transmit (Tx) filter and two Receive (Rx) filters.
The DDSM is inserted on the antenna diversity path.
Note: It can only be used when the antenna diversity path is not used for GSM Tx
path.
On the Tx path, the downlink signal is distributed through the DDSM, from the Node B
IN port to the Antenna OUT port.
On the Rx path, the uplink signal is distributed in two ways:
• Through the DDSM (from the Antenna OUT port to the Rx OUT port) and then
through the GSM Rx Div path
Note: There is a DC path between the Antenna OUT port and the Rx OUT port to
support a GSM TMA.
• Through the GSM Rx Main path, and then through the DDSM (from the Rx IN port to
the Node B IN port)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

path
Overview
Purpose
This chapter describes the operation in order to upgrade an existing site. An upgrade
consists in one of the following operations:
• Adding or removing a iCEM/xCEM/eCEM to the pool of usable CEMs
• Increasing the number of PCMs (multi PCM)
• Increasing the number of RF carriers
• Upgrading an OTSR configuration into an STSR configuration
• Upgrading from 3-sector to 6-sector

9311 Macro V1 OD upgrade path

Adding or removing an iCEM/xCEM/eCEM
An iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is added to the pool of usable CEMs in the following cases:
• The iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is mapped to a spare CCP (configured by OAM)
• The operational state of the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is enabled, which means that:
– The iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is running with the correct software
– The OAM link between the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM and the CCM/iCCM/xCCM is
established
– The iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is not in failure
– The administrative state of the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is unlocked
Note: If the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is in enabled operation state, but no CCP is
available, the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is considered as spare and cannot be used for call
processing.
An iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is removed from the pool of usable CEMs in the following cases:
• The operational state of the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM becomes disabled. This happens
when:
– The iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is totally or partially in failure. The Node B does not
manage degraded CEMs
– The iCEM/xCEM/eCEM is physically removed from the Node B
– The administrative state of the iCEM/xCEM/eCEM becomes locked
Adding an iCEM/xCEM/eCEM to the pool of CEMs is done at startup.
The CEM pool is managed as a single source of processing power through the load
balancing feature.
The CEM pool management offers to the iCEM, xCEM and eCEM a coexistence inside
the Node B digital shelf, while ensuring the heterogeneous management of the various
module types as a common resource for Node B call-processing.
Increasing the number of PCMs (multi PCM)

It is possible to use more than one PCM link to increase the backhaul capacity.
The Node B supports two Multi PCM features for the external connection:
• Multi PCM without IMA
• Multi PCM with IMA (or IMA over PCM)
The impact of both PCM features on the network are different.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Multi PCM without IMA
The connection between the Node B and the RNC provides the following functions:
• Up to four PCMs per Node B, each with its own UNI interface, between the Node B
and the Access Equipment (both RNC PCM and RNC SDH configurations are
supported)
• A single full or fractional PCM per Node B (possibly with Drop and Insert), or
multiple full PCMs (without Drop and Insert)
• No redundancy management is currently supported
• Limited defense to detecting VCC failures, cleaning up calls on those VCCs, and not
using them for future calls until they return to service
Figure 7-1 Node B external connection
Node B-ATM connections

The two types of PCMs used for ATM connections are the following:
• Primary PCMs (PCM 2, PCM 3, and PCM 4) connects to the Node B Control Port
(NodeB CP)
• Secondary PCM (PCM 1 only) connect to the OAM
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The following table shows the list of ATM external connections managed in the Node B.

OMC-B 1 AAL5 I&C PCM 1 by

The primary PCM should be different from the secondary PCM, to ensure that one of the
two connections (lub or OAM) is available.
IMA over PCM

The purpose of IMA is to multiplex ATM cell streams over PCM links and to retrieve the
original stream at far end from these links. IMA is supported on all Node B types.
IMA is used to increase the cell stream throughput between the Node B and the RNC. It
provides a physical layer for Iub and for Node B specific O&M signaling. It also provides
transparent transport of the ATM layer and higher.
The IMA provides:
• A physical layer for Iub
• A physical layer for Node B specific O&M signaling
• Transparency of the ATM layer and higher layers
The Node B IMA feature provides also up to eight ports per IMA group. That is one to
eight physical ports per logical UNI.
The IMA combines the cell from physical ports for transport with preservation of cell
order and cell format.
The following figure shows an example of how an IMA link group can be used on the
transmission interface between the node B and RNC via the Access Equipment.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Figure 7-2 Transmission between Node B and RNC by using IMA over PCM
The Access Equipment provides a hub function (switching, routing) for the Node B. It is
located in small concentration hub sites like the Node B sites. It allows to aggregate
traffic from several Node Bs. The Access Equipment enables to offer more connectivity to
the Node B site.
The Access Equipment supports the following features:
• Multi PCM
• IMA on PCM E1/T1
• Fractional E1/T1 to achieve Drop&Insert UMTS-UMTS and GSM-UMTS
Note: In case of Multi PCM without IMA feature, none of the Multi PCM can be
fractional. The fractional E1/T1 and Multi PCM without IMA features are not
compatible.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The drop and insert function imply the support of ATM over fractional E1 in the Node B.
The drop and insert function consists in the routing of data for other Node Bs through the
Node B. This is done through the routing of some PCM time slot from an incoming PCM
to an outgoing one.
Increasing the number of RF carriers

Adding a carrier to an OTSR1 configuration does not require to disconnect any existing
RF cable.
Upgrading from STSR1 to STSR2 does not require to disconnect any existing RF cable:
the additional iTRM needed for STSR2 is used in reception and for Tx redundancy.
Upgrading from STSR2 to STSR3 can follow the same approach and can be done without
any disconnection (the third iTRM is used in reception only). However, in order to
increase the STSR3 configuration reliability, it is recommended to use each iTRM for
transmission in one sector: two RF cables have to be disconnected from the two existing
iTRMs and connected to the third one.
Upgrading an OTSR configuration to an STSR configuration

This upgrade requires RF disconnection since the Tx Splitter needs to be replaced by two
MCPAs.
Upgrading from 3-sector to 6-sector

This upgrade is specific to the 9311 Macro V1 OD
For very dense traffic area, a 3-sector can be upgraded to a 6-sector. This configuration
fits into single cabinet (transmit diversity is not supported).
The upgrade implies some modification of the RF cabling outside the cabinet to increase
the number of antennas.
