1.1 Introduction
This section defines Super Dual Band and describes its purpose.
Definition
In the LTE era, traffic to be backhauled exponentially increases, posing great challenges on
LTE backhaul networks:
l Spectrum resources of common frequency bands are becoming insufficient and their
transmission bandwidth is limited, making capacity expansion increasingly difficult.
l Limited transmission distances of E-band microwave cannot meet medium-distance
backhaul requirements of macro base stations.
To tackle the challenges, Huawei launches the Super Dual Band solution, which delivers the
innovative cross-band link aggregation technology. By integrating physical link aggregation,
adaptive modulation (AM), and quality of service (QoS), this solution binds common-band
microwave (6-42 GHz) and E-band microwave (71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz) to achieve large-
bandwidth and long-distance transmission.
Figure 1-1 Super Dual Band solution
Purpose
To meet LTE broadband backhaul requirements, Super Dual Band leverages the following
advantages of common-band microwave and E-band microwave:
l E-band microwave provides flexible large bandwidth. The air interface throughput
reaches 5 Gbit/s to 10 Gbit/s.
l Common-band microwave provides resistance against rain fade and ensures high
availability. Therefore, the availability requirement on E-band links can be reduced to
99.9% so that E-band microwave can achieve a transmission distance of up to 10 km.

l The physical link aggregation, AM, and QoS technologies together guarantee 99.999%
availability of core services.
Super Dual Band is the optimal solution for large-bandwidth and long-distance (10 km)
backhaul of wireless traffic. See Table 1-1.

1.2 Basic Concepts

This section describes the basic concepts of Super Dual Band.
1.2.1 System Configuration

This section describes the system architecture and typical configurations of the Super Dual
Band solution.
1.2.1.1 System Architecture

The Super Dual Band solution consists of common-band microwave, E-band microwave, and
processing boards that support Super enhanced physical link aggregation (EPLA).
System Architecture
The Super Dual Band solution uses EM6D boards to implement Super EPLA. Figure 1-2
shows the system architecture of the Super Dual Band solution.

Figure 1-2 Super Dual Band system architecture
As shown in the preceding figure:

l Ports on IF boards connect to common-band links.
l Ports on EM6D boards connect to E-band links.
l Ports on EM6D boards receive services and transmit them to Super EPLA links.
NOTE
l The backplane buses transmit only signal flows between members in Super EPLA groups.
l On an EM6D board, the port that connects to an E-band link must be configured as the master port
in a Super EPLA group.
l On an EM6D board, an E-Line service can be configured only between the master ports in two
Super EPLA groups or between the master port in a Super EPLA group and a service access port.
l If the air-interface capacity of E-band links exceeds 2.5 Gbit/s, you can connect two 2.5GE optical
ports on an EM6D board to one RTN 380 to increase access capacity.
l When Ethernet services are transmitted/received through an EM6D board, service access ports on
the board can be configured in a link aggregation (LAG) group.
l Common-band links can form an XPIC group but cannot form a 1+1 protection group.
Typical Configurations
Super Dual Band supports the following typical configurations:
l 1.2.1.2 Point-to-Point Transmission
l 1.2.1.3 Aggregation Transmission
l 1.2.1.4 Intra-board Relay Transmission
l 1.2.1.5 Inter-board Relay Transmission

1.2.1.2 Point-to-Point Transmission

In a point-to-point transmission scenario, an EM6D board receives bandwidth-hungry
Ethernet services from another device and transmits them through Super enhanced physical
link aggregation (EPLA) groups.
This section uses a Super Dual Band solution consisting of 2+0 common-band links and 1+0
E-band link as an example.
As shown in Figure 1-3, point-to-point transmission configurations in this example are as
follows:
l Port 1 and Port 2 on an EM6D board receives services from another device. Port 1 and
Port 2 are bound in a LAG group, with Port 1 being the master port.
l Port 3 on the EM6D board connects to an RTN 380, thereby connecting to an E-band
link.
l Two ISV3 boards connect to two common-band links. The two common-band links form
a cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) group.
l The two common-band links and the E-band link are bound in a Super EPLA group. Port
3 on the EM6D board is configured as the master port in the group.
l A transparently transmitted point-to-point E-Line service is configured between Port 1
and Port 3 on the EM6D board.
NOTE
l In this example, the EM6D board receives only one channel of services. Therefore, only one
transparently transmitted point-to-point E-Line service is configured. If the EM6D board receives
multiple channels of services and only one Super EPLA group is configured, different types of E-
Line services must be configured based on the types of received services.
l An EM6D board can be configured with two independent Super EPLA groups and receive multiple
channels of services.

Figure 1-3 Typical system configurations for point-to-point transmission
Point-to-point transmission mainly requires the following configurations:

l Two single-channel IF boards supporting XPIC or one dual-channel IF board
l One EM6D board
l One RTN 380 (MXUF4)
l Two ODUs
l One common-band dual-polarized antenna and one E-band single-polarized antenna
1.2.1.3 Aggregation Transmission

The Super Dual Band solution can aggregate services from multiple IP microwave links and
transmit the aggregated services through Super EPLA groups.
E-band link as an example.
As shown in Figure 1-4, typical aggregation transmission configurations are as follows:
l Services from multiple IP microwave links are configured as E-Aggr, E-LAN, or E-Line
services and aggregated to an EG4 board. The EG4 board transmits the aggregated
services to an EM6D board.
l The EG4 board is connected to the EM6D board through a network cable.
l Port 3 on the EM6D board connects to an E-band link.
l Two ISV3 boards connect to two common-band links. The two common-band links form
a cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) group.

l The two common-band links and the E-band link are bound in a Super EPLA group. Port
3 on the EM6D board is configured as the master port in the group.
l The EM6D board can also receive services from another device. In this example, E-Line
services are configured between Port 1 and Port 3 and between Port 2 and Port 3 on the
EM6D board.
Figure 1-4 Typical system configurations for aggregation transmission
Aggregation transmission mainly requires the following configurations:

l Two single-channel IF boards supporting XPIC or one dual-channel IF board
l One EM6D board
l One EG4 board
l One RTN 380 (MXUF4)
l Two ODUs
l One common-band dual-polarized antenna and one E-band single-polarized antenna

1.2.1.4 Intra-board Relay Transmission

When the total number of east and west links at a relay site does not exceed 8, two Super
enhanced physical link aggregation (EPLA) groups can be configured on an EM6D board to
implementing intra-board relay transmission.
E-band link in both the east and west directions as an example.
As shown in Figure 1-5, intra-board replay transmission configurations are as follows:

l Port 3 and Port 4 on an EM6D board connect to the east and west E-band links,
respectively.
l Two east ISV3 boards connect to two common-band links, and the common-band links
form a cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) group. Two west ISV3 boards
connect to another two common-band links, and the two common-band links form
another XPIC group.
l On the EM6D board, the two east common-band links and the east E-band link form a
Super EPLA group; the two west common-band links and the west E-band link form
another Super EPLA group. Port 3 and Port 4 on the EM6D board are configured as the
master ports in the Super EPLA groups.
and Port 4 on the EM6D board.
Figure 1-5 Typical system configurations for intra-board relay transmission
Intra-board relay transmission mainly requires the following configurations:

l One EM6D board
l Two RTN 380s (MXUF4)
l Four ODUs
l Two common-band dual-polarized antennas and two E-band single-polarized antennas
1.2.1.5 Inter-board Relay Transmission

When the total number of east and west links at a relay site exceeds 8, two Super enhanced
physical link aggregation (EPLA) groups can be configured on two EM6D boards to
implement inter-board relay transmission.
E-band links in both the east and west directions as an example.
As shown in Figure 1-6, inter-board replay transmission configurations are as follows:
l Port 3 and Port 4 on each EM6D board connect to two E-band links.
l Two east ISM6 boards connect to four common-band links, and two west ISM6 boards
connect to another four common-band links. Each two links on the same ISM6 board
form a cross-polarization interference cancellation (XPIC) group.
l The four east common-band links and two east E-band links form a Super EPLA group
by means of one EM6D board. The four west common-band links and two west E-band
links form another Super EPLA group by means of the other EM6D board. Port 3 on
each EM6D board is configured as the master port.
l Port 1 and Port 2 on the east EM6D board are interconnected with those on the west
EM6D board by using network cables. The links between the east and west EM6D
boards are bound in a LAG group, with Ports 1 being the master ports.
and Port 1 on each EM6D board.

Inter-board relay transmission mainly requires the following configurations:

l Four dual-channel IF boards
l Two EM6D boards
l Four RTN 380s (MXUF4)
l Eight ODUs
l Two common-band dual-polarized antennas (with two dual-polarized coupler) and four
E-band single-polarized antennas
1.2.2 Switching Conditions

Either a link fault or a hardware fault will trigger Super enhanced physical link aggregation
(EPLA) switching.
Super EPLA switching triggered by a link fault and that by a hardware fault are executed in
the same way. Table 1-2 provides the trigger conditions for Super EPLA switching.

1.3 Principles
Super Dual Band supports priority-based service scheduling, traffic adjustment, and link
protection.
Link Aggregation
Super Dual Band aggregates common-band and E-band links as a Super enhanced physical
link aggregation (EPLA) group, as shown in Figure 1-7.
l A Super EPLA group is configured on an EM6D board. Link 1 is the master link. Links
2 and 3 are slave links.
l A Super EPLA group is configured on an RTN 380.
Figure 1-7 Super Dual Band principles
In the transmit direction:
1. The EM6D board encapsulates received services and distributes them to member links in
the Super EPLA group based on QoS policies. The following two scheduling modes are
supported:
– MODE A mode

In MODE A mode, high-priority and low-priority services are distributed to

common-band and E-band links based on their link bandwidths, implementing
inter-frequency AM.
n If the E-band link quality degrades, the modulation scheme downshifts step by
step, and link bandwidth decreases gradually. Services on E-band links are
switched to common-band links before E-band links are completely
unavailable. In this case, high-priority services within available bandwidth are
transmitted in hitless mode, and packet loss may occur in low-priority services.
n After E-band links recover, the EM6D board re-distributes high-priority and
low-priority services to both common-band and E-band links.
– MODE B mode
In MODE B mode, E-band link bandwidth changes do not affect the transmission of
high-priority services, ensuring hitless transmission of high-priority services.
Generally in this mode, high-priority services are transmitted on common-band
links, and low-priority services are transmitted on E-band links.
n If common-band links are normal and provide sufficient capacities for carrying
high-priority services, high-priority services are always transmitted on the
common-band links and therefore are not affected by any E-band link
bandwidth changes.
n If high-priority service traffic is higher than 90% of the total guaranteed
capacity provided by all common-band links, the system automatically
switches from the MODE B mode to the MODE A mode. After the high-
priority service traffic becomes lower than 70% of the total guaranteed
capacity provided by all common-band links, the system automatically
switches back to the MODE B mode after 1 minute.
n If common-band links have idle resources, they can transmit some low-priority
services.
n If common-band links are faulty, high-priority services are switched to E-band
links. In this case, high-priority services are transiently interrupted.
2. The EM6D board transmits services destined for the E-band link directly to the RTN
380. The EM6D board transmits services destined for common-band links to the
backplane, which then forwards the services to the corresponding IF boards.
3. The RTN 380 and IF boards/ODUs transparently transmit services to the peer end.
In the receive direction:

1. The master and slave links transmit the received Ethernet service signals to the EM6D
board.
2. The EM6D board combines the received Ethernet service signals into one channel and
transmits them to the service access port.
Traffic Adjustment
IF boards and the RTN 380 report their available air-interface capacities to the EM6D board.
The EM6D board then adjusts traffic distributed to links accordingly.
Protection Switching
Each member in a Super EPLA group checks the link and hardware status in real time.
Switching occurs upon detection of a link or hardware fault.

After a link in a Super EPLA group fails, the EM6D board stops transmitting services to the
failed link and transmits services only to functional links. In this case, the Super EPLA group
provides lower Ethernet bandwidth because one link is unavailable.
As shown in Figure 1-8 and Figure 1-9, after link 3 fails, the EM6D board does not transmit
traffic to link 3 but only to links 1 and 2.
After link 3 recovers, the EM6D board automatically restarts to distribute traffic on all the
three links.
NOTE
Super EPLA protects only Ethernet service signals and does not protect TDM services.

Procedure
Step 1 Optical port type

On Port 3, for example:

1. Delete the default GE port.
2. Add a 2.5GE port.

Step 2 Configure a Super EPLA group.

NOTE
l On an EM6D board, each port has two logical port IDs, for example, 1(PORT-1)-1 and 1(PORT-1)-2. The
logical port IDs are reserved for further expansion of Super Dual Band functions. In the current version,
configure the logical port ID consistently for the interconnected RTN 900 and RTN 380.
l MODE A and MODE B map Common and Hitless respectively on the NMS.
l When Scheduling Mode is Hitless, In hitless mode, E-band link bandwidth changes do not affect the
transmission of high-priority services. In this mode, high-priority services are transmitted on common-
band links, and low-priority services are transmitted on E-band links. However, if high-priority services
exceed the common-band link bandwidth upon a burst, the excessive traffic cannot be transmitted by E-
band links and is discarded.
l When Scheduling Mode is Common, In common mode, high-priority and low-priority services are
distributed to common-band and E-band links based on their link bandwidths, implementing inter-
frequency AM.
l When Scheduling Mode is Hitless, This threshold can be specified for a Super EPLA group in hitless
mode. The values 0 to 7 map to BE, AF1, AF2, AF3, AF4, EF, CS6, and CS7 of PHBs. Only an SP queue
can be configured with a PHB. Services in this SP queue and other queues with higher-priorities are high-
priority services.

Step 3 Configure E-Line services on the EM6D board.
For example, create an E-Line service carrying VLAN ID 100:
