1.1 About This Document


This document provides mode transition guidance for a base station. It mainly describes
operations during the mode transition to guide site engineers to plan and implement mode
transition. Some operations involved in this document, such as software upgrade, data
configuration by using the Configuration Management Express (CME), and engineering
quality check, are not detailed here because they have been described in the procedures of
new site deployment and routine maintenance. Instead, this document only provides reference
information for these operations.

1.2 Prerequisites

data shorten the service


interruption duration.
Verification Commissioning base For the mode that has not
stations been deployed before the
mode transition, you are
advised to commission a
new mode as a newly
deployed base station
because the commissioning
methods are the same.
For the mode that has been
deployed before the mode
transition, commission the
mode in either of the
following ways:
 Checking engineering
quality and conduct a
dialing test if no major
changes are made to the
main control board and
transmission scheme.
 Commissioning the mode
as a newly deployed base
station if major changes
are made to the main
control board or
transmission scheme
Outputting engineering Summarize the reparenting
reports and make engineering
reports.

The NEP-SD tool can be used to analyze mode transition planning and design and prepare
configuration data. For details, see Guide to NEP-SD-based Base Station Design.

3 Planning Mode Transition

This section describes the mode transition planning in terms of the radio frequency (RF),
antenna and feeder networking, co-MPT or separate-MPT, BBU interconnection, clock,
baseband, CPRI-based topologies, transmission, and equipment auxiliary.

3.1 Introduction
The base station system mainly consists of subsystems and other items shown in the following
figure: antennas, radio frequency (RF), CPRI cables, and others.
The following sections will cover planning operations for all these items and mode transition
requirements for the material, version, and others.

The following figure describes the constraints of these subsystems and other items on each
other.

Transition path for NB-IoT: Co-MPT is recommended on existing sites for the addition of
NB-IoT.
› Co-MPT is recommended for the addition of NB-IoT. If LTE FDD exists, NB-IoT must
share an MPT with LTE FDD.
› Separate-MPT between NB-IoT and GSM or NB-IoT and UMTS is supported.
 BBU interconnection: the same as that for LTE FDD
 Clock planning: the same as that for LTE FDD
 BBP planning
BBP planning for NB-IoT: LBBPd or UBBP boards work in LM concurrency mode on
existing sites. Do not adjust board slots.
› The BBP slot assignment principles are the same as those for L(FM) and L(F). (The
number of boards working in FM concurrency mode is the same as that working in LTE
only mode, that is six.)
› The board configuration principles for the UM concurrency mode are the same as those
for the UL concurrency mode. (For example, the co-MPT scenarios must support UM
baseband concurrency. Baseband processing boards must be installed in slots 2 and 3 of
a BBU3900. The BBU3910 is not subject to any slot restriction. Both the BBU3910 and
BBU3900 support a maximum of two boards working in UM mode.)
 CPRI networking planning
CPRI networking for NB-IoT: It is recommended that the CPRI networking be not
changed when NB-IoT is added on existing sites.
› In NB-IoT co-SDR scenarios, CPRI MUX is recommended for both separate-MPT and
co-MPT base stations.
 Transmission planning: the same as that for LTE FDD
 Equipment planning: the same as that for LTE FDD
 Summary of mode transition planning: the same as that for LTE FDD

3.2 RF Planning
This section describes RF planning.

3.2.1 Overall RF Planning Process


Figure 1.3 RF planning process

The overall process of RF module planning is as follows:


 Check whether to add a new frequency band or perform refarming.
This is determined based on the network planning.
 Check whether the original multiband module supports the new frequency band.
This is determined based on the module type and specifications.
You can determine whether the RF module supports the new frequency band based on the
value of Frequency band in the RF module sheet in SingleRAN Multi-mode BTS Product
Specification.
 Check whether the original multiband module supports the specifications after mode
transition.
This is determined based on the following items that have been planned by the customer:
mode, number of TRXs, power, TRX frequency, and numbers of RX and TX channels.
For details, see the RF module and RF Configuration & Output power sheets in
SingleRAN Multi-mode BTS Product Specification.
 Check whether the original multiband module supports the specifications after
refarming.
This is determined based on the following items that have been planned by the customer:
mode, number of TRXs, power, TRX frequency, and numbers of RX and TX channels.

For details about the specifications of RF modules, see "RRU Specification" in LTE
TDD Product Specification.

3.2.2 Adding an RF Module


1. Module selection
The following items shall be taken into consideration for selecting an RF module: mode,
frequency band, number of TRXs, power, TRX frequencies, and numbers of RX and TX
channels that have been planned by the customer.
 For details about how to select a GSM, UMTS, LTE FDD, or multimode RF module, see
GUL Base Station Overview and Selection Guide.
 For details about how to select an LTE TDD RF module, see LTE TDD Solution Guide.
2. Precautions (hardware)
 Pay attention to the mapping relationship between the added module and cabinet:
The maximum transmit power of a radio frequency unit (RFU) varies from model to
model. For an RFU with a high transmit power, it has high requirements for power
distribution and heat dissipation of cabinets. Low-power RFUs are applicable to all types
of cabinets. High-power RFUs are applicable only to Ver.C cabinets, Ver.D cabinets,
upgraded cabinets that have the same capabilities as Ver.D cabinets, new cabinets, and
BTS3900AL (Ver.A) cabinets.
 Pay attention to requirements for power supply or power distribution.

- Configure the working mode of an RF module according to the live network deployment.
- The following describes the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT.
In a separate-MPT NB-IoT/GSM/UMTS scenario, the working mode of an RF module for
NB-IoT needs to be configured. On the NB-IoT side, set the working mode to the one in
which the RF module works. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the
working mode of the RF module to GM.
For other separate-MPT scenarios, such as the separate-MPT GSM/UMTS scenario, the
working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT cannot be configured if the base station version is
SRAN12.0 or earlier. In these scenarios, set the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT
to LTE. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode of the
RF module to GL. If GSM, UMTS, and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode
of the RF module to GM. (The RF module runs normally and does not affect services if the
working mode is set to GL.)
Determine the parameters and their values to be configured according to the guide and specify
them in the following table. The following table provides the major eGBTS/UMTS/LTE
parameters and their value examples. The BTSTRXBRD MOC is for the GBTS.

 Data configuration requirement (software)


Original mode:
The original working mode of the RF module must be changed.
New mode:
Data configuration is the same as that for adding an RF module. Note that the working mode
of the RF module must be correctly configured.
You can use the GUI, summary data file, or MML commands to configure the data.
For SRAN12.0, see section "Data Preparation" in "Engineering Guidelines (Multimode Base
Station)" of RF Unit and Topology Management Feature Parameter Description.
Pay attention to the following during data configuration:
- Determine the CPRI-based topology according to topology types supported by an RF
module in multimode scenarios.
- Configure the working mode of an RF module according to the live network deployment.
- The following describes the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT.
In a separate-MPT NB-IoT/GSM/UMTS scenario, the working mode of an RF module for
NB-IoT needs to be configured. On the NB-IoT side, set the working mode to the one in
which the RF module works. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the
working mode of the RF module to GM.
For other separate-MPT scenarios, such as the separate-MPT GSM/UMTS scenario, the
working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT cannot be configured if the base station version is
SRAN12.0 or earlier. In these scenarios, set the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT
to LTE. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode of the
RF module to GL. If GSM, UMTS, and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode
of the RF module to GM. (The RF module runs normally and does not affect services if the
working mode is set to GL.)

3.2.5 Adding a Module to the Original SDR Module


1. Module selection
The following items shall be taken into consideration for selecting an RF module:
Mode, frequency band, number of TRXs, power, TRX frequencies, and numbers of RX and
TX channels that have been planned by the customer.
 For details about how to select a GSM, UMTS, LTE FDD, or multimode RF module, see
GUL Base Station Overview and Selection Guide.
 For details about how to select an LTE TDD RF module, see LTE TDD Solution Guide.
Note:
 RF modules of the same type are preferred for capacity expansion in the same cell.
 If the original module is end of marketing (EOM) or cannot meet capacity requirements
after mode transition, modules of different types can be configured together. For details,
see GUL RF Module Mixed Configuration Guide.
2. Precautions
 Pay attention to the mapping relationship between the added module and cabinet:
The maximum transmit power of an RFU varies by RFU model. The higher transmit
power of an RFU indicates higher requirements for power distribution and heat
dissipation of the cabinet. Therefore, RFUs of low power can work with all cabinets
while RFUs of high power can work only with Ver.C cabinets, Ver.D cabinets (or the
ones have equivalent capabilities after upgrade), new cabinets, and the BTS3900AL
(Ver.A) cabinets.
 Pay attention to requirements for power supply or power distribution.

 Version requirement
For details about the mapping relationship between RF modules and versions, see 3900 Series
Base Station Software and Hardware Compatibility Description for SRAN12.0.
 License requirement
Hardware license of the single-mode RF module working in the original mode:
If the original module is a non-blade or non-AAS module, replace it with a blade or AAS
module. In such a case, the related hardware license of the single-mode RF module must be
purchased. The way of purchasing such a license is the same as that for a single-mode RF
module, and therefore details are not described here.
Hardware license of the single-mode RF module working in the new mode:
To support the new mode, the hardware license of this mode must be purchased for the new
RF module, such as the power license and TRX license. The way of purchasing such a license
is the same as that for a single-mode RF module, and therefore details are not described here.
Multimode RF license
For a multiband RF module (except the RRU3961), one multimode multiband license is
required for each frequency band of each mode (GSM, UMTS, or LTE).

The following items shall be taken into consideration for selecting an RF module:
Mode, frequency band, number of TRXs, power, TRX frequencies, and numbers of RX and
TX channels that have been planned by the customer.
For details about the selection, see GUL Base Station Overview and Selection Guide.
2. Precautions
 To replace the RF module, pay attention to the mapping relationship between the new
module and cabinet:
The maximum transmit power of an RFU varies from model to model. For an RFU with
a high transmit power, it has high requirements for power distribution and heat
dissipation of cabinets. Low-power RFUs are applicable to all types of cabinets. High-
power RFUs are applicable only to Ver.C cabinets, Ver.D cabinets, upgraded cabinets
that have the same capabilities as Ver.D cabinets, new cabinets, and BTS3900AL (Ver.A)
cabinets.
 Pay attention to requirements for power supply or power distribution.
 To replace the RF module, check whether the optical module needs to be replaced
according to the number of cells carried on the RF module and bandwidth specifications.
 To replace the RF module, check whether the RRU power cable needs to be replaced.
3. Engineering guidelines

 Data configuration requirement


Original mode:
 The original RF module's working mode must be adjusted.
 TRX configuration of the original mode may be changed, such as a decrease in the TRX
number due to refarming and changes in RF channels of TRXs).
New mode:
Data configuration is the same as that for adding an RF module. Note that the working mode
of the RF module must be correctly configured.
You can use the GUI, summary data file, or MML commands to configure the data.
For SRAN12.0, see section "Data Preparation" in "Engineering Guidelines (Multimode Base
Station)" of RF Unit and Topology Management Feature Parameter Description.
Pay attention to the following during data configuration:
- Determine the CPRI-based topology according to topology types supported by an RF
module in multimode scenarios.
- Configure the working mode of an RF module according to the live network deployment.
- Set the RXUSPEC parameter to the name of the new RF module for the GBTS. The
RUSPEC parameter is optional for the eGBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB.
- The following describes the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT.
In a separate-MPT NB-IoT/GSM/UMTS scenario, the working mode of an RF module for
NB-IoT needs to be configured. On the NB-IoT side, set the working mode to the one in
which the RF module works. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the
working mode of the RF module to GM.
For other separate-MPT scenarios, such as the separate-MPT GSM/UMTS scenario, the
working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT cannot be configured if the base station version is
SRAN12.0 or earlier. In these scenarios, set the working mode of an RF module for NB-IoT
to LTE. For example, if GSM and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode of the
RF module to GL. If GSM, UMTS, and NB-IoT share an RF module, set the working mode

Scenario Impact on Services of the Original Mode

Replacing the RRU Services carried by the original RFU or RRU


will be affected when it is being replaced. The
interruption period varies by installation period.
If there is an extra slot for installing the new
RRU, you can pre-install the RRU and then
adjust the antenna & feeder and CPRI cables.
This can reduce the service interruption period
to a few minutes.

In this step, obtain the antenna model so that you can find the datasheet of the original
antenna.

 Check whether to replace the original antenna or add a new antenna.


This is determined based on customer's plan.
If you need to add a new antenna, pay attention to its installation position.
If replacement of the original antenna is required, be aware of the impact when compared
with the original mode. For example, difference between the benefits of the original and
replacement antennas may affect network performance.
 Check whether the new and original frequency bands share the same antenna port.
In this step, obtain the antenna model so that you can find the datasheet of the original
antenna.
The datasheet indicates whether the original antenna port supports the broadband antenna. If
the broadband antenna is supported, the new and original frequency bands can share the same
antenna port.
Note that if the original and new RF modules work on independent frequency bands, an
external inter-band combiner must be added for combing the original and new frequency
bands so that the two RF modules can share the same antenna port.
Generally, broadband antennas share the same port, and therefore two frequency bands on
these antennas do not support independent remote electrical tilt (RET).

Figure 1.7 Scenario with TMA+RET

In this scenario of mode transition, an RF module working on the new frequency band uses an
independent set of antenna and feeder. In such a case, you can use an independent antenna or
reuse the original multiband multi-port antenna. In addition, customers may replace the
original antenna with a multiband multi-port antenna due to constraints on site conditions.
This scenario has the following characteristics:
 Independent antenna (antenna port)
 Independent feeder or jumper
 If an RET antenna is used, independent RET and electrical tilt configuration are
supported.
 If an independent antenna is used, you can independently set the mechanical tilt.
2. Precautions
 In scenarios of adding an RET or TMA, check the model, and hardware and software
versions of RET or TMA for compatibility. For details, contact Global Technical
Assistance Center (GTAC) or Technical Management Office (TMO) teams. A list of RET
or TMA models that have passed the interoperability test (IOT) compatibility test is
available. If the RET or TMA to be added is not included in the list, relevant tests by
R&D or field engineers are recommended.
 Pay attention to frequency bands supported by the TMA, especially the reused TMA.

In this scenario of mode transition, the RF module working on the new frequency band uses
an independent antenna but shares the original feeder due to installation constraints. In such a
case, you can use an independent antenna or reuse the original multiband multi-port antenna.
In addition, customers may replace the original antenna with a multiband multi-port antenna
due to constraints on site conditions.
A combiner must be added because multiple modes (frequency bands) share the feeder. The
combiner brings about insertion loss, which slightly affects the performance of the original

This scenario has the following characteristics:
 Independent antenna (antenna port)
 No new feeder
 If an RET antenna is used, independent RET and electrical tilt configuration are

Figure 1.11 Broadband antenna

Note that parts highlighted with blue are new components in the preceding figures.
In this scenario of mode transition, a new frequency band of new mode shares the broadband
antenna with one or more frequency bands of the original mode. In such a case, an external
combiner combines signals transmitted on multiple frequency bands.
This scenario has the following characteristics:
 Broadband antenna, multimode and multiband shared antenna port
 No new feeder
 All modes share the same antenna or antenna port and independent RET is not
supported.
2. Precautions
1) The combiner model is determined by frequency bands where signals are to be combined.
2) If the RF module is a broadband module providing the same output port for multiple bands
(for example, RRU3961), no external combiner is required.

Note that the BBU3910A supports only co-MPT mode transition but not separate-MPT mode
transition. In SRAN12.0, the BBU3910A does not support NB-IoT.

Whether co-MPT or separate-MPT is used depends on whether the new main control board
works in a new mode independently. If multiple modes are added, you need to perform the
operations in the preceding process for each mode. For example, in mode transition from
GSM to G&[U*L], if UMTS is the first mode to be added, UMTS will be deployed on a new
main control board. In this case, separate-MPT is used for mode transition to UMTS but the
NodeB is a co-MPT base station. In addition, if LTE is the second mode to be added, LTE is
deployed on the UMTS main control board. In this case, co-MPT is used for mode transition.
LTE FDD, LTE TDD, and NB-IoT all belong to LTE and must be deployed only on the same
main control board and cannot be deployed on different main control boards.

 Whether co-MPT reconstruction is required


If the original base station is not a co-MPT base station, co-MPT reconstruction is
required. The following scenarios are included:
1. If the original base station is a separate-MPT base station, deploy all modes on one
main control board to implement co-MPT reconstruction.
2. If the original base station is a single-mode or separate-MPT base station, add a new
mode to an original mode to implement co-MPT reconstruction.

3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 3 Planning Mode Transition

If the original base station supports one or two of LTE FDD, LTE TDD, and NB-IoT,
deploy the other one on the same main control board to implement co-MPT. In this case,
the co-MPT reconstruction is not required.

3.4.2 Adding a Main Control Board of the New Mode to the


Original BBU
1. Scenario description and application scope

The BBU3900 or BBU3910 supports a maximum of two main control boards. When separate-
MPT is used, the BBU3900 and BBU3910 support mode transition from a single mode to
dual-mode, for example, transition from GSM to GU or GL, or from UMTS to UL.
This scenario is applicable to the mode transition from single-mode to dual-mode. The
following two applications are supported:
 Independent RF module working in the new mode (separate-MPT and co-cabinet)
 SDR RF module working in both the original mode and the new mode (separate-MPT
and common mode)

Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 3 Planning Mode Transition

The BBU3910A does not support mode transition when separate-MPT is used and therefore
does not support this scenario.
For details about how to select main control boards, see GUL Base Station Overview and
Selection Guide.
2. Precautions
- In separate-MPT (excluding the hybrid-MPT) scenarios, a single BBU supports a maximum
of two modes, and the main control boards cannot work in active/standby mode.
- Constraints on BBU power supply and heat dissipation systems affect configurations after
mode transition. You can use the program comprehension tool (PCT) to obtain the
specifications of power supply and heat dissipation for the BBU after mode transition. If
necessary, you need to replace the BBU or the UPEU, or expand the UPEU's capacity. All
these operations interrupt services of the original mode.
- Pay attention to the impact of BBU capacity expansion on cabinet power support and heat
dissipation. For details, see section "Equipment Auxiliary Planning" in this document.
- The BBU3910 supports only new types of main control boards such as the GTMUb,
GTMUc, and UMPT.

 Version requirement
For the mapping relationship between the main control board and version, see 3900 Series
Base Station Hardware and Software Compatibility Description for SRAN12.0.
 License requirement
No specific license control item is available for the main control board working in a separate-
MPT multimode base station.
Therefore, a license related to the new mode can be applied for in the same way as that for the
license of each involved mode.

UMPT multimode licenses must be applied for only when the UMPT or UMDU works in co-MPT and
multimode concurrency is applied. If the UMPT/UMDU serves only one mode, there is no need to apply
for such licenses. The UMPT multimode licenses include UMPT Multi Mode license(GSM), UMPT
Multi Mode license(UMTS), UMPT Multi Mode license(LTE FDD), UMPT Multi Mode license(LTE
TDD), and UMPT Multi Mode license(NB-IoT)(per UMPT).
 Data configuration requirement
There is no special data configuration for the newly added main control board working in a
separate-MPT multimode base station. Note that if a multimode feature is required, refer to
the related feature descriptions, such as descriptions about the RF module and common
reference.
For configuration of common resources in a multimode base station, pay attention to the
following items:
- Configure equipment data (such as the power supply, fan, and environment monitoring
board) only for one mode. It is recommended that the equipment data be configured on the
original mode so that no data migration is involved.

In separate-MPT, you are not advised to configure data of mechanical and electrical parts for multiple
modes together because data consistency issues may occur.

- The number of all common resources at the entire site shall be unique. For example, two
non-SDR RF modules working in two different modes cannot have the same cabinet No.,
subrack No., or slot No. The same cabinet No., subrack No., or slot No. must be configured
for SDR RF modules working in two different modes.
For details about data configurations, see the following:
Configuration mode: MML/GUI/SUMMARY

3.4.3 Adding a new BBU and a Main Control Board of the New
Mode
1. Scenario description and application scope

A maximum of two main control boards can be configured in a BBU3900 or BBU3910.


Therefore, adding a BBU and a mode applies to mode transmission from dual modes to triple
modes. The related typical scenarios are mode transmission from G&U to G&U+L or G&L to
G&L+U.
The BBU3910A does not support mode transition when separate-MPT is used and therefore
does not support this scenario.
For details about how to select BBUs and main control boards, see GUL Base Station
Overview and Selection Guide.
2. Precautions
- BBUs must be interconnected for mode transition where a new BBU is added and the two
BBUs work in multiple modes. For details, see section "3.5BBU Interconnection".
- The GTMU must be deployed in the primary BBU subrack.
- A BBU3900/BBU3910 cannot be interconnected with a BBU3910A. Therefore, mode
addition cannot be performed between BBU3900/BBU3910 and BBU3910A.

 Data configuration requirement
There is no special data configuration for the newly added main control board working in a
separate-MPT multimode base station. Note that if a multimode feature is required, refer to
the related feature descriptions, such as descriptions about the RF module and common
reference.
For configuration of common resources in a multimode base station, pay attention to the
following items:
- Configure equipment data (such as the power supply, fan, and environment monitoring
board) only for one mode. It is recommended that the equipment data be configured on the
original mode so that no data migration is involved. When two BBUs are used, all the
equipment is connected to the primary BBU subrack and such equipment data is configured in
one mode of the primary BBU subrack.
- The number of all common resources at the entire site shall be unique. For example, two
non-SDR RF modules working in two different modes cannot have the same cabinet No.,
subrack No., or slot No. The same cabinet No., subrack No., or slot No. must be configured
for SDR RF modules working in two different modes.
- BBU interconnection data must be configured when two BBUs are used. For details, see
section "3.5BBU Interconnection" in this document.
You can use the GUI, summary data file, or MML commands to configure the data.
For SRAN12.0, see section "Creating Base Stations" in "Creating Separate-MPT Multimode
Base Stations" of 3900 Series Base Station Initial Configuration Guide.
Resources required for each mode are managed by a "brain." Environment alarms and fans are

3.4.4 Adding a New Mode to the Co-MPT Base Station


1. Scenario description and application scope
If the original base station is a co-MPT multimode base station, add a new mode directly, for
example, a multimode co-MPT BTS3900 base station.
All types of BBUs support this scenario.
Main control board selection: None
2. Precautions
- A new mode can be added to the original base station if it is a co-MPT multimode base
station (such as BTS3900) and Deployment Mode of the MPT configuration is set to
CONCURRENT(Concurrent). If the Deployment Mode of the MPT configuration is set to
NON-CONCURRENT(Non-concurrent), a new mode cannot be added. In this case, you
need to set Deployment Mode to CONCURRENT(Concurrent) before adding a mode. This
modification resets the base station.
- A new mode to be added must be of the same version as the existing mode in most cases.
That is, the source mode of an original main control board must be upgraded to the target
version in advance.

The configuration data of the new mode must be complete, including RAT data, RF data,
transmission data, and sector data.
For mode transition from FDD only or TDD only to FDD and TDD concurrency, MOs such
as Application, Function, and X2/S1 do not need to be configured (unless required by
customers), and the operations are similar to adding an inter-frequency cell in the same mode.
For example, if the original base station has only TDD cells working on the 2.3 GHz
frequency band, add TDD cells working on the 2.6 GHz frequency band. For details, see the
related description in 3900 Series Base Station Initial Configuration Guide > Cell Data

Similarly, for mode transition from FDD only, TDD only, or FDD and TDD concurrency to

Scenarios.
Main control board selection
Only the UMPT series boards support the co-MPT mode. If the main control board does not
support co-MPT, replace the main control board. For example, the UMPTa6 does not support
co-MPT. For the specifications of UMPT boards, see BBU Hardware Description >
BBU3900 and BBU3910 Hardware Description > BBU3900 and BBU3910 Boards >

SRAN12.0: UMPT
2. Precautions
- If the original base station is a GBTS, reconstruct the GBTS into an eGBTS by abandoning
the GTMU or using GTMU evolution.
 If the GTMU is to be abandoned, CPRI ports on the UBBP or a newly added UBRI can
be used for the GSM mode. The main control and transmission function can be
implemented on the UMPT board (the UMPT does not support TDM transmission).
 In GTMU evolution scenarios, CPRI ports remain on the GTMU. If the transmission
mode is IP over E1, the transmission ports remain on the GTMU. If the transmission
mode is IP over GE/FE, the transmission ports must be provided by the UMPT.
If the GBTS uses TDM transmission before the reconstruction, first change TDM
transmission into IP transmission and then perform a GBTS-to-eGBTS reconstruction.
- The mode to be added after the co-MPT reconstruction must be of the same version as the
existing mode.
3. Engineering guidelines
 Material requirement
Material Type Material Name Quantity Remarks

Board UMPT 1 Prepare UMPT boards if the


base station does not use
UMPT boards before co-
MPT reconstruction.
UBRI 1 Prepare UBRI boards if
GSM co-MPT
reconstruction is required
and the UBRI board
provides CPRI fiber optical
cables for the GSM mode.

 Version requirement
Only versions later than SRAN8.0 support this scenario.
If the GBTS is to be reconstructed into a co-MPT base station, prepare the GTMU evolution
software if you use the evolved GTMU. To obtain the GTMU evolution software (whose
version is V900), visit http://support.huawei.com/carrier/ and choose Support > Product
Support > Wireless Network > Wireless Network Common > SingleRAN >
SingleRAN_MBTS.
 License requirement

UMPT multimode licenses must be applied for only when the UMPT or UMDU works in co-MPT and
multimode concurrency is applied. The UMPT multimode licenses include UMPT Multi Mode
license(GSM), UMPT Multi Mode license(UMTS), UMPT Multi Mode license(LTE FDD), UMPT
Multi Mode license(LTE TDD), and UMPT Multi Mode license (per UMPT) (NB-IoT). No license is
required for the first mode of a co-MPT base station. However, such licenses are required for other
modes of the base station.

2. License related to the new mode


A new license of the new mode must be purchased.
3. GSM License
If a GBTS to be reconstructed into an eGBTS through co-MPT reconstruction, the license of
the GBTS must be divided. For details, see 13.2Preparing GSM Licenses.
In GBSS15.0, the license control item changed significantly. The most significant change is
that the BTS quotation feature is controlled by the eGBTS. Before a feature is activated/used,
the GTS needs to allocate sufficient licenses to each eGBTS on the U2000. Otherwise, the
feature fails to be activated and CS/PS services may be affected. The following table
describes how to allocate the licenses of features supported by the eGBTS.

 Data configuration requirement


Perform co-MPT reconstruction for the original mode and expand the capacity for the new
mode after the co-MPT reconstruction is finished.
The configuration data must be modified when the co-MPT reconstruction is performed.
New mode:
The configuration data of the new mode must be complete, including RAT data, RF data,
transmission data, and sector data.
For mode transition from FDD only or TDD only to FDD and TDD concurrency, MOs such
as Application, Function, and X2/S1 do not need to be configured (unless required by
customers), and the operations are similar to adding an inter-frequency cell in the same mode.
For example, if the original base station has only TDD cells working on the 2.3 GHz
frequency band, add TDD cells working on the 2.6 GHz frequency band. For details, see "Cell
Reconfiguration" in SRAN12.0 Reconfiguration Guide.

 For the BSC redundancy scenario, two data planning tables need to be filled out. One is
for the primary BSC and the other for the secondary BSC.
 The BBU3910A only supports the co-MPT reconstruction in UMTS only or LTE only
scenario. Therefore, you only need to fill in the ConvertFlag, NodeBName, or
eNodeBName field in the SitePlanning page.

(1) Filling in the GlobalPlanning page

Enter information for all co-MPT scenarios on this page.


 Fill in the following fields when GSM mode is involved:
− BscSctpIdBase must be configured, making different base stations controlled by
one base station controller use different values.
− BtsSctpPortBase and BtsTrxPerSctp use the planned values. In the BSC node
redundancy scenario, BtsSctpPortBase and BtsTrxPerSctp must be set to the same
value in the data planning tables of the primary BSC and secondary BSC.
− BtsOMCHPeerIP: Enter the IP address of the U2000. This field is mandatory for
GO reconstruction and batch reconstruction scenarios.
− BtsOMCHPeerIPMask: Enter the IP mask of the U2000. This field is mandatory
for GO reconstruction and batch reconstruction scenarios.
− WORKMODE: Enter T1, E1_BA, or E1_UNBA according to the actual
transmission mode used by the GBTS. T1 means T1 transmission; E1_BA means
120 ohm impedance; E1_UNBA means 75 ohm impedance.
− ActBTSSoftwareVersion: If the GTMU is evolved into a board providing only
CPRI ports, enter the version of the GTMU evolution software. The GTMU
abandoning scenario is not involved.
− BSCNodeRedundancyBSCName: For the BSC redundancy scenario, fill in this
field in two data planning tables. In the table for the primary BSC, enter the primary
BSC's name. In the table for the secondary BSC, enter the secondary BSC's name.
In non-BSC-redundancy scenario, leave this field blank.
− ActGTMUSoftwareVersion: This field is used in the GTMU SingleOM
reconstruction scenario. Enter the version of the GTMU SingleOM reconstruction
package. The version of the GTMUb SingleOM reconstruction software is a special
V900 version, for example, BTS3900V900R011C00.
− GLOCELLIDRule: This field specifies the allocation policy of global cell IDs
when the BSC Node Redundancy feature is not used. This field can be set to CGI-
Rule (indicating that global cell IDs are allocated in ascending order) or
CELLINDEX-Rule (indicating that cell indexes are allocated in ascending order).
The default value is CGI-Rule. When the BSC Node Redundancy feature is used,
this field must be set to the default value.
 Fill in the following field when an MBTS is involved:
SRANBaselineRAT: Leave this field unspecified for a single mode base station. This
field is optional for an MBTS. If this field is left unspecified for an MBTS, data is
configured based on the more recent mode. Fill this field with SingleRAN in hybrid-
MPT reconstruction scenarios. For example, enter U for the GU co-MPT reconstruction
scenario, L for the GL co-MPT reconstruction scenario, and U or L for the UL co-MPT
reconstruction scenario. For the GU+L/GL+U BBU interconnection co-MPT
reconstruction scenario, enter the non-GSM RAT in the primary BBU. For the con-MPT

reconstruction scenarios where two BBUs are combined into one, enter the mode that the
OMCH channel is used for transmission after the co-MPT construction.
 The UMTS only or LTE only reconstruction scenario is not involved in this page.
(2) Filling in the SitePlanning page

If multiple base stations are reconstructed, the planning data of each base station must be
filled. Each row corresponds to a base station. Do not leave any blank row between two filled
rows. Otherwise, the data cannot be converted.
To reduce the GSM service interruption duration, load the GTMUb conversion software
before the GU/GL/GU+L/GL+U co-MPT reconstruction. In this scenario, you are advised to
perform reconstruction for ten sites at a time. The BSC script is executed in serial. If too many
sites are reconstructed in a batch, execution of the script may not be finished within the
required duration (8 to 12 minutes) of service interruption.
If GSM base stations are cascaded using IPoE1, it is recommended that the cascaded BTSs be
reconstructed in a batch. In the GO co-MPT reconstruction scenario, you are advised to
reconstruct all the cascaded base stations at the same time, which will reduce service
interruption duration. For the co-MPT reconstruction for GU, GL, and GUL base stations,
when activating the GTMU conversion software, you are advised to activate the base stations
from the lowest cascading level to the first level. When starting a PnP task, execute the
Download BSC Configuration Data command only on the base stations of the first
cascading level.

 ScenarioId: It is a reserved parameter and used for future expansion. It does not need to
be specified.
 ConvertFlag: "Yes" indicates that the configuration data for the site corresponding to
this row needs to be converted.
 BtsName, NodeBName, eNodeBName, or SRANNameBfConvert: name of the base
station to be reconstructed, mandatory. SRANNameBfConvert indicates the name of the
co-MPT base station before reconstruction.
 SRANName: name of the co-MPT base station after reconstruction. It must be different
from the base station name before reconstruction. If it is left blank, a name of the base
station with the reference mode will be created automatically. The name that is
automatically created uses the NE name of the reference mode specified by the
SRANBaselineRAT field. If SRANBaselineRAT is left unspecified, the NE name of a
more recent mode is used. SRANBaselineRAT must be set to SingleRAN for a hybrid-
MPT base station. If SRANName is unspecified for the hybrid-MPT base station, the
value of SRANNameBfConvert is used.
 OMCHLocalIP and OMCHLocalIPMask: Local IP address and mask of the OM
channel used by the eGBTS after reconstruction. It is used only for GO reconstruction
scenarios. The parameters are optional. If this parameter is not specified, the BTS IP and
mask of the original GBTS are automatically generated.
 NextHop: mandatory when the GBTS uses IPoFE. Enter the next-hop IP address of the
Ethernet interface of the GBTS. (When GSM uses Ethernet transmission, this parameter
must be specified to ensure that a correct route is generated on the GSM side. When the
Abis interface uses layer-2 networking mode, the IP address of the BTS gateway is the
interface IP address of board where the BSC IP address is located. When non-co-
transmission or co-transmission based on panel interconnection is used, enter the next-
hop IP address on the GSM side and the IP address must be on the same network

segment as the IP address of the Ethernet port type of the BTSDEVIP, and the IP address
cannot be the same as BTSDEVIP. When co-transmission through backplane
interconnection is used, enter the next-hop IP address of the board that provides
transmission, and it must be in the same network segment as the DEVIP of the board but
cannot be the same as the DEVIP.) This field can be left blank if GU co-transmission
through backplane interconnection is applied. This field can be left blank if GL co-
transmission through backplane interconnection is applied and E1 backup transmission is
not used. If GL co-transmission through backplane interconnection is applied and E1
backup transmission is used, this field must be set to the next-hop IP address of the
reference mode.
 IPHCSUBOPT: Fill in this field according to the actual situation (When the base station
directly connects to the base station controller using IP over E1 or connects to the upper-
level base station, set it to DISABLE. When the base station connects to a router using IP
over E1, set it to ENABLE).
 IPoE1OMIP: Enter the original BTSIP or an IP address in the same network segment as
the IP address of the original PPP/MP port. When GSM mode uses transmission of
IP_OVER_FE/GE_AND_E1(E1 backup), this parameter is mandatory.
 ClkSrc: used for base station clock data conversion. The default value NULL indicates
that the clock synchronization is performed in the default order of priority as follows:
GPS > SYNCETH+IPCLK > IPCLK > SYNCETH > LINECLK > TOD > BITS. For a
hybrid clock reference source, you are advised to run the SET CLKMODE command to
manually configure it.
 GTMU Abandoned, UMPTSlot, and GTMU CPRI Move TemplateName: For the
GTMU abandoning scenario, the parameters must be filled. They specify the slot that
holds the main control board where the GSM mode is deployed and the CPRI adjustment
mode of the abandoned GTMU. The CPRI adjustment method of the abandoned GTMU
depends on the information that is filled in the MultiCpriChainMoveTemplate sheet.
 RetainPeerMPT: Specifies whether a UMPT working in non-baseline mode continues
to be used.
If a UMPT working in non-baseline RAT continues to be used, set it to Yes. In this case,
the RAT of the board will be changed and the board will be degraded to a secondary or
standby board. (In this case, if the main control board working in non-baseline RAT is
not detected or powered on, the reconstruction fails.)
If a UMPT working in non-baseline RAT will not be used any longer, set it to No. In this
case, the peer main control processing unit will be degraded to a slave or standby board
using an MML command manually rather than during the reconstruction or the board can
be relocated to be used in other places.
If the peer main control processing unit is a GTMU/WMPT/LMPT, this field does not
affect the reconstruction process.
 MultiBBUCombFlag and MultiBBUCombTemplateName
If two BBUs that are combined into one BBU through co-MPT reconstruction, this field
is mandatory. It is used to plan the mode in which two BBUs are combined into one
BBU. Users must enter the adjustment mode in the MultiBBUCombTemplate sheet.
 MPTType
Main control board type after the co-MPT reconstruction, mandatory The default value is
UMPT if the parameter is not filled out.
In the GTMU SingleOM scenario, the field must be filled with GTMUb or GTMUc. The
fields used in the GTMU abandoning scenario must not be selected. The field and the
fields involved in the GTMU abandoning scenario are mutually exclusive.

If a UMPT is used as the main control board after reconstruction and the original main control
board uses optical ports, run the DSP ETHPORT command to query the data rate over the
port before replacing the board. This ensures that the data rate at the local end is the same as
that at the peer end. If the data rates are different, optical port negotiation fails and
transmission is interrupted.

 UmptBrdspec
Hardware type of the UMPT after the reconstruction, optional The default value is
UMPTa or UMPTb if the parameter is not filled out.
If the main control board for a co-MPT base station is the UMPTe in reconstruction
scenarios, fill this field with UMPTe.

The UMPTa/b and UMPTe with the same specifications have the same model but different
capabilities. The configured specifications after reconstruction may exceed the board
capability. Therefore, the configuration cannot take effect even though succeeds. It is
recommended that the configured specifications be checked to determine whether they have
exceeded the actual board capability. If they have exceeded the actual board capability, the
extra specifications cannot take effect. For details, see the notes for the following MML
commands in 3900 Series Base Station MML reference for SRAN12.0:

1. UmptBrdspec indicates the type of a UMPT after reconstruction and its default value is
UMPTa or UMPTb. Set this field to the type of the configured UMPT. If this field is
improperly set, configuration cannot take effect after conversion due to the different cell
specifications supported by the UMPTa/UMPTb and UMPTe.
2. If the base station before reconstruction uses E1/T1 transmission (including E1/T1 over IP
or E1/T1 over ATM), the UMPTe cannot serve as the main control board for the co-MPT
base station after reconstruction because the UMPTe does not support E1/T1 transmission.
3. If the UMPTe serves as the main control board for the co-MPT base station after
reconstruction, the main control boards (including WMPT and LMPT) before
reconstruction are abandoned and removed from the subrack, and the main control board
(UMPTa/b) before reconstruction is retained and serves as the signaling extension board
for the UMPTe.

 LmptEthPort0Attribute and LmptEthPort1Attribute


The two fields must be set if the main control board is reconstructed from an LMPT to a
UMPTe.
The two fields indicate the optical/electrical attributes of the Ethernet ports 0 and 1 on
the LMPT. If the two fields are not filled out, NULL is used by default. If Ethernet ports
0 and 1 on the LMPT are used and the optical/electrical attributes are not configured or
being set to AUTO, the two fields must be filled out.

The system converts the data configurations according to the following principles and
the actual transmission must also be deployed as follows:
LMPT electrical port 0 is converted to UMPTe electrical port 0.
LMPT electrical port 1 is converted to UMPTe electrical port 2.
LMPT optical port 0 is converted to UMPTe optical port 1.
LMPT optical port 1 is converted to UMPTe optical port 3.
 OnlyConvertBaselineTranFlag
From SRAN10.1 onwards, the transport data of only the reference mode is incorporated
into the co-MPT base station during co-MPT data conversion. Fill this field with Yes.
Its default value is No, indicating that transport data of both reference and non-reference
modes is incorporated.

If OnlyConvertBaselineTranFlag on the SitePlanning page is set to Yes, the transport data of only the
reference mode is incorporated into the co-MPT base station and that of the non-reference mode must be
manually entered according to the actual situation.
For the manual configuration method, see 3900 Series Base Station Initial Configuration Guide for
SRAN12.0 > Creating Base Stations > Creating Co-MPT Base Stations > Creating a Single Co-
MPT Base Station > Configuring Transport Data About the Co-MPT Base Station.

(3) Filling out the MultiCpriChainMoveTemplate Sheet

This template must be filled out in the reconstruction scenario where the GSM mode is included and the
GTMU is to be abandoned.

The CPRI adjustment method of the abandoned GTMU depends on the information that is
filled in the MultiCpriChainMoveTemplate sheet.
In scenarios where the GTMU is to be abandoned and GSM baseband signals are processed
by RF modules, a UBRI or UBBPd can be added during the reconstruction to carry CPRI
signals of GSM. Alternatively, the UBBPd for UMTS or LTE can also be used to carry the
CPRI signals of GSM. In scenarios where the baseband processing board of UMTS or LTE is
WBBP or LBBP, respectively, the WBBP or LBBP cannot be replaced with the UBBPd
during the reconstruction. Therefore, a UBRI is added to carry the CPRI signals of GSM.
For example, Default_Template is used in GTMU abandoning scenarios where the UMTS
baseband processing board is WBBP and a UBRI is to be added for processing GSM signals.
Move all the CPRI ports on the GTMU to the UBRI in slot 1, as shown in the following
templates.

The information of all CPRI ports on the GTMU to be abandoned must be filled in the
following table for the replacement. The GTMU CPRIPort field indicates a CPRI port on the
GTMU. The GTMU CPRIPort Need CpriMux field indicates whether CPRI-Sharing is
used by GSM CPRI ports after the relocation. The Dest UBRI/UBBP BrdType, Dest
UBRI/UBBP Slot, and Dest UBRI/UBBP CPRIPort fields indicate the positions where the
GTMU CPRI ports are located after being relocated.

In the GTMU abandoning scenario where the baseband processing board of UMTS or LTE is
the UBBPd, if there is no idle CPRI port on the UBBPd, you can set the GTMU CPRIPort

Need CpriMux field to convert the CPRI dual-star typology before the reconstruction to the
CPRI chain typology. As shown in the following table, move the CPRI cables on the GTMU
into the specified ports on the UBBPd in slot 2 and slot 3. CPRI port 0 on the GTMU does not
connect to any fiber optic cable. Instead, the fiber optic cable inserted in CPRI port 4 on the
UBBPd in slot 2 is converted to use CPRI sharing.

(4) Filling out the MultiBBUCombTemplate Sheet

This sheet needs to be filled out for con-MPT reconstruction scenarios where two BBUs are combined
into one.

Users must enter the adjustment mode in the MultiBBUCombTemplate sheet.


Fill in this template according to the guide in MultiBBUCombTemplate.

Ensure that the main control board deployed with the reference mode is retained after site
consolidation.

2. Adjusting data for WMPT/LMPT evolution

Issue 03 (2016-12-09) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 98


Copyright © Huawei
Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 3 Planning Mode Transition

During a co-MPT reconstruction from a UO, LO, UL, or some hybrid-MPT base stations,
convert the replaced WMPT or LMPT.

If the UMPTe serves as the main control board for the co-MPT base station after
reconstruction, the main control boards (including WMPT and LMPT) before reconstruction
are abandoned and removed from the subrack, and the main control board (UMPTa/b) before
reconstruction is retained and serves as the signaling extension board for the UMPTe.

(1) Adjusting data for WMPT evolution


After the co-MPT base station works properly, run the ADD BRD command to add a WMPT
board with Board Type set to WMPT and Slot No. set to 6. You cannot abandon the WMPT
without customer's permission. The WMPT must be in position but not be used.
(2) Adjusting data for LMPT evolution
After the co-MPT base station works properly, run the ADD BRD command to add an LMPT
board with Board Type set to LMPT and Slot No. set to 6.
3. Modifying GSM clock parameters
For the reconstruction of UMTS and LTE, if the original base station is a GSM and UMTS or
GSM and LTE multimode base station, check whether ClkType is set to PEER_CLK and
STANDARD is set to UMTS or LTE. If ClkType is set to PEER_CLK and STANDARD is
set to UMTS or LTE, set STANDARD to COMM.
(1) On the BSC LMT, run the LST BTSCLK command to check whether ClkType is set to
PEER_CLK and STANDARD is set to UMTS or LTE.
(2) If ClkType is set to PEER_CLK and STANDARD is set to UMTS or LTE, run the SET
BTSCLK command to modify STANDARD to COMM.
4. Modifying the OMCH IP of NodeBs on the MBSC
If a UMTS&LTE separate-MPT base station is to be reconstructed into a co-MPT base station
with mode expansion, and the LTE main control board is to be used as the main control board
of the co-MPT base station, adjust the OMCH IP of the corresponding MBSC of NodeB.
(1) Run the LST OMCH command to query the OMCH IP of the eNodeB.
(2) Run the MOD UNODEBIP command to modify the OMCH IP of the NodeB. Make the
OMCH IP of eNodeBs consistent with the NodeB. The following is an example: MOD
UNODEBIP: IDTYPE=BYID, NODEBID=1, NBTRANTP=IPTRANS_IP,
NBIPOAMIP="10.171.35.123", NBIPOAMMASK="255.255.255.0", IPSRN=0, IPSN=18,

BBU interconnection applies to a separate-MPT triple-mode GUL base station or a separate-
MPT dual-mode base station. Two BBUs must be configured for the triple-mode GUL base
station. In the dual-mode scenarios, some customers prefer two BBUs working in different
modes. The two application scenarios (two BBU in different modes and two BBUs for triple
modes)are similar, and therefore details about BBU interconnection for dual-mode are not
provided.

 Material requirement (hardware)
A UCIU occupies one slot in the primary BBU subrack. The BBU that is configured with the
UCIU is the primary BBU subrack (BBU 0). You can configure the UCIU in slot 4, 5, 0, or 1
(in the descending order of priority) in BBU 0.
The main control board in the leaf BBU (BBU 1) for interconnection must be the UMPT.
An inter-BBU signal cable is used to connect an M port on the UCIU in BBU 0 to a CI port
on the UMPT in BBU 1. You are advised to use the following M ports on the UCIU in
sequence: M0, M1, M2, M3, and M4.
Be aware of the distance limitations for BBU interconnection. The maximum length of an
inter-BBU signal cable for BBU interconnection through UCIU+UMPT can be 10 meters. If
an inter-BBU signal cable of over 10 meters is required, you need to customize it first.
The BBU3910 cannot be configured with a UCIU.
When two BBUs are interconnected, the monitoring device must be connected to BBU 0 and
related software can be configured in and monitored by the mode configured in the primary
BBU subrack.
In separate-MPT scenarios, GSM (GBTS/eGBTS) must be deployed only in BBU 0.
 Data configuration requirement
A UCIU must be configured in the primary BBU subrack (BBU 0). If two modes are
configured in the primary BBU subrack, the UCIU can be configured only with one mode and
the mode's priority is GSM, UMTS, and LTE in a descending order.
The cabinet and subrack numbers of the primary BBU subrack and secondary BBU subrack
must be unique and do not conflict with each other.
The CTRLLNK or BTSCTRLLNK MO must be configured for all involved modes.

clock source requirements of the
new mode.

 Requirements of new modes for the original reference clock source


Time synchronization (or phase synchronization) is available on the basis of frequency
synchronization. When the new mode has time synchronization requirements and SDR is
used for the original mode and new mode, the clock source of the original mode must
use time synchronization if either of the following events is true. Note that the reference
clock of time synchronization can be shared or not.
- GSM (GTMU used) is one of the original modes. If the reference clock source for time
synchronization is provided by the new mode, Clock Type and Peer Mode must be set
to PEER_CLK and the new mode, respectively.
- Inter-BBU SDR is used. If the secondary BBU subrack requires time synchronization,
time synchronization must be used for the reference clock of the primary BBU subrack.
- In mode transition from FDD/NB-IoT to FDD/NB-IoT+TDD, adding the USCU clock
board or other ways can be used to obtain the GPS clock.

When time synchronization clock source is configured for the GSM main control board, specify the
frame synchronization switch FRAMESYNCSW based on whether inter-site frame number
synchronization must be supported:

 Set FRAMESYNCSW to OFF if GBTS or eGBTS services do not need to support inter-site frame
number synchronization.
 Set FRAMESYNCSW to ON if the GBTS must support
Before setting FRAMESYNCSW to ON, you need to perform frame number offset and training
sequence code planning to prevent interference between GSM neighboring cells.
The GTMUa board does not support time synchronization. When time synchronization is required, the
GTMUa board cannot be used and must be replaced.

BBP is required, apply to the SRAN or LTE Requirement Management Team (RMT).

3.7.2 Adding an Independent Baseband Board to the New Mode


with Separate-MPT Configuration
1. Scenario description and application scope
In a separate-MPT base station, an independent baseband board is added to the new mode for
mode transition.
The BBU3910A does not support mode transition when separate-MPT is used and therefore
does not support this scenario.
 For details about how to select a GSM, UMTS, or LTE FDD baseband processing board,
see GUL Base Station Overview and Selection Guide.
 For details about how to select an LTE TDD baseband processing board, see LTE TDD
Solution Guide.
2. Precautions
- Slots 2 and 3 in the BBU3900 serve as the switching center. The NodeB can provide CPRI
ports only in slot 2 or 3 to connect RRUs. LTE also requires a baseband processing board in
slot 2 or 3.
- The preceding constraint does not apply to the BBU3910 because it has a higher backplane
switching capability.
- Pay attention to the board types supported by the BBU3910 that no longer supports some old
types of baseband processing boards. For details, see Description > Hardware Description >

3.8.3 Dual-Star Topology (Load Sharing) for SDR RF Modules


1. Scenario description and application scope
 New RF modules work in multiple modes or the single mode of original RF modules is
expanded to multiple modes.
 The following figure is an example.

 Limitation on RF modules: The RF module must be multimode RF modules (of M


series).

 Other limitations: For an RRU or RFU whose version is earlier than V3, the dual-star
topology is used and CPRI rates on the two sides must be consistent. The system
automatically negotiates for a CPRI rate that is supported by both sides. Therefore,
during CPRI rate planning, pay attention to the CPRI rate that can be supported by the
optical module or CPRI interface board on the other side. For an RRU or RFU whose
version is later than V3, CPRI rates on the two sides can be different.
2. Precautions
1) In dual-star topology for separate-MPT scenarios, one CRPI link is for one mode and
services of a mode are not affected by other modes. In load sharing for co-MPT scenarios, two
CRPI links are shared by multiple modes and modes are randomly assigned to the CPRI link
based on load balancing rules.
2) The length of the added CPRI cable is determined according to site survey. Determine
whether the CPRI fiber optic cable or the optical module works in a single mode or multiple
modes.
3) If the optical fiber is to be reused, check whether the optical fiber type matches the optical
fiber connector. If they do not match, the optical fiber must be transferred. For details, see

3.8.4 CPRI MUX for SDR RF Modules


1. Scenario description and application scope
 CPRI MUX applies to the following scenarios:
- RF modules work in multiple modes.
- Less optic fiber cables are preferred. Compared with the dual-star topology, CPRI
MUX uses less optic fiber cables though the relationship between modes lessens as well.
- Stadium, subway, and high-speed train scenarios (chain CPRI MUX with multiple
cascading levels).
 The following figure is an example.

 Limitations:
Restriction on service specifications: The maximum service specifications of CPRI
MUX are less than those of the dual-star topology. In CPRI MUX, the bandwidth of the
baseband processing board that connects to CPRI fiber optic cables and the backplane
bandwidth of the converging and converged parties of CPRI MUX are limited.
Therefore, the specifications must be calculated based on factors such as the number of
ports connecting to CPRI fiber optic cables, port rate, number of cascaded RF modules,
main control board combination, and baseband processing board type.
For details, see section "Specifications of the CPRI MUX Feature" in CPRI MUX
Feature Parameter Description for SRAN12.0.

Restriction on the slot and board type: CPRI MUX has requirements on board types that
can be supported by the converging party and converged party. In addition, if a
BBU3900 is used, the converging party must be configured in a certain slot.
For details, see section "BBUs and Boards That Support CPRI MUX" in CPRI MUX
Feature Parameter Description for SRAN12.0.
2. Precautions
- The length of the added CPRI cable is determined according to site survey. Determine
whether the CPRI fiber optic cable or the optical module works in a single mode or multiple
modes.
- If the optical fiber is to be reused, check whether the optical fiber type matches the optical
fiber connector. If they do not match, the optical fiber must be transferred. For details, see
Reuse Guide and Checklist for CPRI Optical Cables in Distributed Base Stations.

The mode that provides a
transmission port for co-

first.

Check whether the original mode provides the transmission port.


It is recommended that the transmission port be configured on the board or mode that has the
strongest transmission capability when co-transmission is used.
However, if co-transmission is implemented through UMPT+UMPT, the transmission port
shall be provided by the primary BBU subrack. Therefore, in such a case, if the new mode is
configured in the secondary BBU subrack and has a stronger transmission capability, the
primary BBU subrack provides the transmission port for co-transmission.
If the interface capabilities of the original and new modes are similar, the transmission port of
the original mode is preferred. This can avoid service interruption caused by transmission
adjustment in the original mode.

Transmission networking selection:


The transmission networking of the new mode is determined by the transmission type
supported by the new mode and actual site transmission condition. For example, if an eNodeB
supports Ethernet transmission and both Ethernet transmission and E1 transmission exist at
the site, Ethernet transmission must be configured for the eNodeB. If the site does not support
the transmission type supported by the new mode, transmission reconstruction must be
performed at the site.

3.11.1 License File Requirement
When adding a new mode, new RF modules, main control boards, or baseband processing
boards must be added, which requires the related single-mode licenses, for example, power or
TRX licenses. The way of purchasing such a license is the same as that for single-mode
equipment, and therefore, details are not described here.
This section uses multimode transition as an example to describe the license requirements.

 The license must be adjusted when a dependent GSM NE is to be reconstructed into an


independent GSM NE.
In GBSS15.0, the license control item changed significantly. The most significant change is
that the BTS quotation feature is controlled by the eGBTS. Before a feature is activated/used,
the GTS needs to allocate sufficient licenses to each eGBTS on the U2000. Otherwise, the
feature fails to be activated and CS/PS services may be affected. The following table
describes how to allocate the licenses of features supported by the eGBTS.

4 Mode Transition Examples

This section describes mode transition using the MO involved in each domain for mode
transition planning based on application scenarios as an example. These mode transition
examples can be used as references for customizing the CME template during data creation.
The following describes the meanings of letters involved in mode transition:
 2. UL or U&L refers to a separate-MPT UMTS and LTE dual-mode base station. In a
UL/U&L base station, a single BBU is configured with two main control boards, in
which one works in UMTS mode and the other works in LTE(FDD) mode. Other cases,
such as GL and GU, are similar.
 U*L refers to a co-MPT UMTS and LTE dual-mode base station. In a U*L base station,
the main control board in a single BBU works in both UMTS and LTE(FDD)/LTE(TDD)
mode. Other cases, such as G*L and G*U, are similar.
 L(F), L(T), and L(M) refer to LTE (FDD), LTE (TDD), and LTE (NB-IoT), respectively.
 L(FM) refers to an eNodeB that supports both LTE (FDD) and LTE (NB-IoT). Other
cases, such as L(TM) and L(FTM), are similar.
For mode transition scenarios where LTE (FDD), LTE (TDD), and LTE (NB-IoT) are added,
such as mode transition from a UO base station to a U*L (FM) co-MPT base station, refer to
the mode transition example from UO to U*L, and then the example from L(F) to L(FM).

4.1 Example: Mode Transition from GU to GU+L


(UCIU+UMPT)
This chapter takes the transition from a GSM and UMTS dual-mode base station to a GU+L
(UCIU+UMPT) triple-mode base station as an example. This chapter lists the managed
objects (MOs) to be configured during the transition. Figure 1.21 shows the hardware
configurations before and after mode transition. Figure 1.22 shows the transmission
networking topology before and after mode transition.

g frequency synchronization mode synchronization. For the clock changes,
is configured. see the following descriptions.

1. When planning mode transition from G*U*L(F) to G*U*L(F+T), pay attention to the
following:
 RF planning
LTE FDD and LTE TDD cannot share RF modules. Add LTE TDD RF modules during mode
transition.
 Antenna and feeder networking
 In F+T scenarios, intermodulation interference and spurious interference may occur on
an antenna working in LTE FDD and LTE TDD modes. It is recommended that LTE
FDD and LTE TDD use separate antennas and feeders, and therefore LTE TDD antennas
must be added.
 Clock planning
LTE TDD basic services require time synchronization. After mode transition, time
synchronization instead of frequency synchronization must be used. That is, the base station
uses a GPS clock source instead of an IEEE1588 V2 clock source as the system clock.
 Baseband planning
An LTE TDD baseband processing board must be added during mode transition if LTE TDD
is added.
 CPRI-based topology
LTE TDD RF modules are added. LTE TDD uses the star topology and no CPRI connection
reconstruction is required.
 Transmission networking planning

Co-transmission is used before and after mode transition. Therefore, transmission


reconstruction is not required.
2. During mode transition from G*U*L(F) to G*U*L(F+T), consolidate LTE FDD and LTE
TDD licenses. For detailed operations, see EGD-LTE License Guide for GTS Engineers
(ESDP).
3. Check whether the status of LTE TDD cells is normal after mode transition from G*U*L(F)
to G*U*L(F+T). For detailed operations, see 3900 Series Base Station Commissioning Guide.

Figure 1.65 Hardware configurations before and after mode transition

LTE FDD and LTE NB-IoT share an RRU module. If the baseband processing board and main control
board meet the specifications, new hardware or co-MPT reconstruction is not required.
FDD RRU: RRU3953
If a UBBPd board that supports LTE FDD is changed to support LTE FDD and NB-IoT, the UBBPd
board must be reset. FDD-related data is automatically configured in LTE cells, which takes three
minutes.
If an LBBPd board that supports LTE FDD is changed to support LTE FDD and NB-IoT, the LBBPd
board must be reset. FDD-related data is automatically configured in LTE cells, which takes five
minutes.

5 Mode Transition Implementation

5.1 Policies
Because the live network is affected during mode transition of a multimode base station, you
are advised to make preparations and perform the operations that do not affect services in
advance, and perform the operations that affect services in parallel. This can shorten the
service interruption duration.
During mode transition, data configuration and hardware adjustment are key operations and
the services are interrupted during these operations. Services can be restored only when these
two operations are consistent because they are interdependent. For example, when a CPRI
link is moved to a new port on the BBU during the transition, data related to the CPRI link
must be adjusted accordingly. Services of a multimode base station can be restored only when
the port adjustment is consistent with data configured for the CPRI link.
During mode transition, adjusting hardware and activating data configuration interrupt
services. Therefore, you are advised to perform these two operations in parallel. This
minimizes the service interruption duration during mode transition.
1. Complete operations that do not affect services in advance, such as pre-installation of
equipment of the new mode. Perform operations that affect services in parallel if possible to
shorten the duration.
2. During mode transition, hardware adjustment is required and must be performed with data
configuration in some transition scenarios. Only in this way the services can be restored
normally. Such hardware adjustment can be adjustment of CPRI links or transmission links. In
this case, perform hardware adjustment and data configuration activation in parallel to shorten
the service interruption period.
3. Upgrade the original mode before mode transition.
4. Before mode transition, perform refarming on the original mode to allocate a new
frequency to the new mode if necessary. Refarming shall be completed before site
reconstruction. In addition, ensure that a sufficient buffer zone is reserved for site
reconstruction during refarming.

6.2 Upgrading Base Station Software


Check whether the original versions of the GBTS and NodeB are the target versions of
SRAN. If the versions are not SRAN11.0, upgrade the base stations to the target version.
Refer to the upgrade guide of the target version during upgrade. If a USB flash drive is used
for the upgrade, see section "USB+U2000-based Commissioning" for SRAN11.1 or
"USB+U2000-based Commissioning" for SRAN12.0 in 3900 Series Base Station
Commissioning Guide.

6.3 Upgrading Software of Base Stations in the Co-MPT


Reconstruction Scenario
If the base station to be reconstructed includes a GBTS and the GBTS is to be reconstructed
into an eGBTS, the GTMU board must be converted. Before the conversion, download the
GTMU evolution software.
Visit http://support.huawei.com/carrier/, download the GTMU evolution software
corresponding to the MBTS'version (the software version is the V900 version).

Attribute Description

ID to the second TRX. If the generated ID has been used, the CME
automatically adds 1 to the ID until it is available and allocates the ID
to the second TRX.
NOTE
 The minimum ID available under the NE selected in the wizard functions as
the start value by default on the CME.
 When the imported data file contains different NEs, the CME searches for
available IDs from the preset start value and allocates them.

FH Attributes The CME generates data based on the FH type in the data file for RF
adjustment. If the FH type is not specified in the data file, the CME
generates data based on the FH type selected in the wizard.
NOTE
 FH type has the following values: NO_FH, RF_FH,
BaseBand_FH(BCCH HOP), and BaseBand_FH(BCCH NOT HOP),
indicating no FH, RF FH, baseband FH (BCCH TRX involved), and
baseband FH (BCCH TRX not involved), respectively.
 The configuration of the FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band parameter is
as follows:
 When FH type is NO_FH, the configuration of FH in PGSM/EGSM
frequency band does not take effect.
 When FH type is RF_FH, FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set
to In Different MAGroup or In One MAGroup.
 When FH type is BaseBand_FH(BCCH HOP) or BaseBand_FH(BCCH
NOT HOP), FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set to In
Different MAGroup, In One MAGroup, or EGSM Frequency Not In Any
MAGroup.

Channel Rule Set channel allocation rules based on the RF adjustment scenarios.
 New Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains new cells or you need to re-allocate channels of
existing cells. For details about channel allocation rules, see
Channel Allocation Rules.
NOTE
In the data file for RF adjustment, if Cell Extension Type is set to Double
Timeslot Extension Cell, the configuration of Channel Rule does not take
effect. The CME automatically allocates timeslots 0 and 2 on the BCCH TRX to
the BCCH and SDCCH, respectively, and allocates all the other timeslots in the
cell to TCHs.
 Existed Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains only new TRXs or you need to add TRXs in an
existing cell.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 0 for TRXs is selected, the
CME re-allocates all channels of the imported cells based on the
channel allocation rule specified by New Cells Channel Rule.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 1 for TRXs is selected, the
CME allocates only channels of new TRXs based on the
following rules:
1. Rank TRXs by TRX No. in ascending order.
2. Allocate PDCCHs: PDCCHs are allocated to channels 6, 5, 7, 4,
3, 2, 1, and 0 of a TRX in sequence.
3. Allocate SDCCHs: Based on the sequence of TRX numbers,

Table 1.1 Setting attributes


Attribute Description

Cell ID The CME can automatically allocate IDs to new cells and TRXs.
TRX ID Automatic allocation rules: After you enter a reference ID in the
wizard, the CME searches for available IDs from the reference ID and
allocates them to new cells and TRXs. For example, after allocating a
reference TRX ID to the first TRX, the CME generates a new ID by
automatically adding 1 to the reference TRX ID and allocates the new
ID to the second TRX. If the generated ID has been used, the CME
automatically adds 1 to the ID until it is available and allocates the ID
to the second TRX.
NOTE
 The minimum ID available under the NE selected in the wizard functions as
the start value by default on the CME.
 When the imported data file contains different NEs, the CME searches for
available IDs from the preset start value and allocates them.

FH Attributes The CME generates data based on the FH type in the data file for RF
adjustment. If the FH type is not specified in the data file, the CME
generates data based on the FH type selected in the wizard.
NOTE
1. FH type has the following values: NO_FH, RF_FH, BaseBand_FH(BCCH
HOP), and BaseBand_FH(BCCH NOT HOP), indicating no FH, RF FH,
baseband FH (BCCH TRX involved), and baseband FH (BCCH TRX not
involved), respectively.
2. The configuration of the FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band parameter is
as follows:
 When FH type is NO_FH, the configuration of FH in PGSM/EGSM
frequency band does not take effect.
 When FH type is RF_FH, FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set
to In Different MAGroup or In One MAGroup.
 When FH type is BaseBand_FH(BCCH HOP) or BaseBand_FH(BCCH
NOT HOP), FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set to In
Different MAGroup, In One MAGroup, or EGSM Frequency Not In Any
MAGroup.

Channel Rule Set channel allocation rules based on the RF adjustment scenarios.
 New Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains new cells or you need to re-allocate channels of
existing cells. For details about channel allocation rules, see
Channel Allocation Rules.
NOTE
In the data file for RF adjustment, if Cell Extension Type is set to Double
Timeslot Extension Cell, the configuration of Channel Rule does not take
effect. The CME automatically allocates timeslots 0 and 2 on the BCCH TRX to
the BCCH and SDCCH, respectively, and allocates all the other timeslots in the
cell to TCHs.
 Existed Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains only new TRXs or you need to add TRXs in an
existing cell.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 0 for TRXs is selected, the
CME re-allocates all channels of the imported cells based on the
channel allocation rule specified by New Cells Channel Rule.

Attribute Description

− When Channel Allocation Rule 1 for TRXs is selected, the


CME allocates only channels of new TRXs based on the
following rules:
1. Rank TRXs by TRX No. in ascending order.
2. Allocate PDCCHs: PDCCHs are allocated to channels 6, 5, 7, 4,
3, 2, 1, and 0 of a TRX in sequence.
3. Allocate SDCCHs: Based on the sequence of TRX numbers,
allocate SDCCHs to channel 0 of all new TRXs in the current
cell, channel 1, and so on.
NOTE
 The rules do not take effect when the cell to which a TRX belongs is a double
timeslot extension cell.
 The number of available channels is the difference between the sum of
Number of PDCH and Number of SDCCH specified in the data file for RF
adjustment and the number of configured channels of the cell to which new
TRXs belong.

Step 8 Click Next, when the import is complete, click Finish.


 If the CME displays a message stating that the operation is successful, configuration data
has been successfully imported.
 If the CME displays a message stating that the import failed, base station configuration
data failed to be imported. If this occurs, you have to reconfigure the data based on the
error information.

In the error message list, you can:


 Click an error message to view the details at the bottom of the wizard.
 Double-click an error message to switch to the corresponding location in the imported file. Then,
reconfigure the data based on the error information.
 If data of some base stations fails to be imported when Best effort is selected,
reconfigure the data and import it again.

8.3.1.3 Preparing Radio Data


This section describes how to adjust radio data in co-MPT and separate-MPT scenarios when
the original mode is GSM. The radio data to be adjusted includes the MOs related to the cell,
TRX, and sector.

8.3.1.3.1 Adjusting GBTS Data


When the original mode is GSM where the GBTS is used, you need to use the data file for
RNP and inter-BSC reparenting based on the TDM and IP on the CME to configure cells and
neighbor relationships and cell algorithm parameters, respectively.
The configuration procedure is as follows:
Step 1 Customize and obtain the summary data file based on the mode transition planning results.
Step 2 Based on the customized template, export the data to be adjusted and specify data in the
template file as planned.
Step 3 Import the template file.
----End

The procedure for exporting and importing the data file for RNP is as follows:

Procedure
 Export the planned radio data.
a. On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose GSM Application > Export
Data > Export Radio Network Planning Data (CME client mode) or CME >
GSM Application > Export Data > Export Radio Network Planning Data
(U2000 client mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to select NEs.
b. Select the base station controller and version of the NE to which the cells whose
neighboring and external cell data you need to export belong.

You can click to load common objects in batches.


c. Click Next. A dialog box is displayed for you to select export options.

To configure two cells under different base station controllers as neighboring cells, you need to export
data of external cells and neighboring cells and add the corresponding external cells to the exported file.
Otherwise, the neighbor relationships fail to be configured.
e. Click Next to specify a file format (TXT, XLS, or XLSM) and a save path.
바 XLS and XLSM files contain all the configuration objects. Each configuration
object corresponds to a sheet.
Sheet names must not be changed. Otherwise, the CME fails to process data in
the file during the import.
사 The TXT file contains only the selected configuration objects. Each
configuration object corresponds to a TXT file.
The TXT file name must not be changed. Otherwise, the CME fails to process
data in the file during the import.
아 If the data to be exported exceeds 65,535 rows, save the data as a TXT or an
XLSM file.
f. Click Next. The CME exports neighbor relationship and external cell data.

No Yes  For the external cell data, the CME adds the
data in the file.
 The CME processes neighbor relationships
in the following methods:
− If the external cells related to the
neighbor relationships to be imported
have been configured on the CME, the
CME adds the neighboring cell data in
the file.
− If the external cells related to the
neighbor relationships to be imported
have not been configured on the CME
and the source cell cannot be found,
the CME does not process the data.
− If the local cell related to the neighbor
relationships to be imported does not
exist on the CME, the CME does not
process the data.
NOTE
 BIDIRECTION in the file takes effect only in
the Append mode.
 If BIDIRECTION is set to Yes and inverse
neighboring cells do not exist, the CME
processes data in the following ways:
 Parameter values for the inverse neighboring
cells come from the source cell.
 If no external cell exists, the CME also
automatically configures external cells and
uses the default NE values for the parameters
of the external cells.
 If any external cells exist and the parameter
configurations of the external cells are different
from those of the source cell, the CME does
not reconfigure external cell parameters and
obtains the parameter values of neighboring
cells from the source cell.

Table 1.1 Setting attributes


Attribute Description

Cell ID The CME can automatically allocate IDs to new cells and TRXs.
TRX ID Automatic allocation rules: After you enter a reference ID in the
wizard, the CME searches for available IDs from the reference ID and
allocates them to new cells and TRXs. For example, after allocating a
reference TRX ID to the first TRX, the CME generates a new ID by
automatically adding 1 to the reference TRX ID and allocates the new
ID to the second TRX. If the generated ID has been used, the CME
automatically adds 1 to the ID until it is available and allocates the ID
to the second TRX.
NOTE
 The minimum ID available under the NE selected in the wizard functions as
the start value by default on the CME.
 When the imported data file contains different NEs, the CME searches for
available IDs from the preset start value and allocates them.

FH Attributes The CME generates data based on the FH type in the data file for RF
adjustment. If the FH type is not specified in the data file, the CME
generates data based on the FH type selected in the wizard.
NOTE
1. FH type has the following values: NO_FH, RF_FH, BaseBand_FH(BCCH
HOP), and BaseBand_FH(BCCH NOT HOP), indicating no FH, RF FH,
baseband FH (BCCH TRX involved), and baseband FH (BCCH TRX not
involved), respectively.
2. The configuration of the FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band parameter is
as follows:
 When FH type is NO_FH, the configuration of FH in PGSM/EGSM
frequency band does not take effect.
 When FH type is RF_FH, FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set
to In Different MAGroup or In One MAGroup.
 When FH type is BaseBand_FH(BCCH HOP) or BaseBand_FH(BCCH
NOT HOP), FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set to In
Different MAGroup, In One MAGroup, or EGSM Frequency Not In Any
MAGroup.

Channel Rule Set channel allocation rules based on the RF adjustment scenarios.

Attribute Description
 New Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains new cells or you need to re-allocate channels of
existing cells. For details about channel allocation rules, see
Channel Allocation Rules.
NOTE
In the data file for RF adjustment, if Cell Extension Type is set to Double
Timeslot Extension Cell, the configuration of Channel Rule does not take
effect. The CME automatically allocates timeslots 0 and 2 on the BCCH TRX to
the BCCH and SDCCH, respectively, and allocates all the other timeslots in the
cell to TCHs.
 Existed Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains only new TRXs or you need to add TRXs in an
existing cell.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 0 for TRXs is selected, the
CME re-allocates all channels of the imported cells based on the
channel allocation rule specified by New Cells Channel Rule.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 1 for TRXs is selected, the
CME allocates only channels of new TRXs based on the
following rules:
1. Rank TRXs by TRX No. in ascending order.
2. Allocate PDCCHs: PDCCHs are allocated to channels 6, 5, 7, 4,
3, 2, 1, and 0 of a TRX in sequence.
3. Allocate SDCCHs: Based on the sequence of TRX numbers,
allocate SDCCHs to channel 0 of all new TRXs in the current
cell, channel 1, and so on.
NOTE
 The rules do not take effect when the cell to which a TRX belongs is a double
timeslot extension cell.
 The number of available channels is the difference between the sum of
Number of PDCH and Number of SDCCH specified in the data file for RF
adjustment and the number of configured channels of the cell to which new
TRXs belong.

Step 8 Click Next, when the import is complete, click Finish.

8.3.2.2 Preparing Transmission Data


This section describes how to adjust equipment data in co-MPT and separate-MPT scenarios
when the original mode is UMTS. The transmission data to be adjusted includes the following
MOs: IP, IPPATH, SCTPLINK, CPBEAR, and IPRT.

8.3.2.2.1 Separate-MPT
In separate-MPT scenarios where the original mode is UMTS, if only the base station data
needs to be adjusted, use the summary data file for batch configuration (GSM application) on
the CME to configure transmission data. If the data of the base station and controller needs to
be adjusted together, use the Iub batch adjustment data.
The configuration procedure is as follows:
Step 1 Customize and obtain the summary data file based on the mode transition planning results.
Step 2 Based on the customized template, export the data to be adjusted and specify data in the
template file as planned.
Step 3 Import the template file.
----End

The procedure for exporting and importing the summary data file for batch configuration
(UMTS application) is as follows:

Procedure
 Exporting NodeB data for batch configuration.
Step 1 On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose UMTS Application > Export Data >
Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode) or CME > UMTS
Application > Export Data > Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client
mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to export the data you want to reconfigure in
batches.

You are advised to select the default summary data file Scenario Basic Summary Template. The causes
are as follows:
 Scenario Basic Summary Template is the minimum set of configuration parameters for base
station creation. After you select information required for creating base stations, such as the link
mode, telecom operator sharing mode, and security information on the customization wizard, the
CME automatically adds related parameters to the summary data file according to your selection.
You can use the customization wizard to combine base station creation scenarios, reducing
redundant parameters generated in the summary data file.
 Other default summary data files are classified by scenario and contain all parameters in the related
scenarios. Therefore, the following problems may occur:
 Redundant parameters are generated.
 A summary data file fails to be verified due to data collision when the customization wizard is used.
You can learn the introduction to scenarios by checking the information displayed on the GUI of the
summary data file.

Edit a summary data file.

Procedure
Step 1 Open a user-defined summary data file.
Step 2 On the menu bar of the Excel file, click Add-Ins.
If the macro function is not displayed under Add-Ins, verify the following settings:
 In Microsoft Office Excel 2003, the macro function must be enabled and the macro
security level must be set to Medium.
 In Microsoft Office Excel 2007 and Excel 2010, the macro function must be enabled.
Step 3 Edit basic data.
1. Edit global data, which is the same for all base stations, on the Common Data sheet.
Such parameters include the telecom operator information and OSS IP address.
2. Edit basic information, which is different for all base stations, on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet or the MO list sheet (XXXX List). For example:
− Edit the basic base station information including the base station name and type on
the Base Station Transport Data sheet.
− Edit base station functions and locations on the corresponding MO list sheet
(XXXX List).
Step 4 Edit device data.
1. The configuration data of devices uses the values in the base station template. Therefore,
you need to set the name of the prepared base station template on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet.

Only the default template name is displayed in the drop-down list for selecting a template in the
summary data file. Therefore, before selecting a user-defined template, you have to click
to add the user-defined template name to the drop-down
list.
Information about the user-defined template must be consistent with that about the existing template on
the CME.
2. Edit clock data and time data on the Common Data sheet.
Step 5 Edit transport data.
1. Edit the data planned for each base station, such as the IP address, subnet, and port
number, on the Base Station Transport Data sheet.
2. Edit the parameters for the MOs corresponding to each interface on the corresponding
MO sheets (XXXX List or XXXX Pattern). For example, device IP addresses and SCTP
links are MOs.
a. If the value of a parameter on the XXXX Pattern sheet varies among base stations,
you can click and select the parameter that needs to be referenced.
Microsoft Excel automatically generates the reference path for the parameter in the
summary data file. Figure 1 provides an example for using the reference function.
Advantage of the reference function: The value of one parameter can be referenced
on multiple XXXX Pattern sheets. Therefore, after a reference relationship is set,
you only need to change the referenced parameter value and do not need to modify
the parameters on the XXXX Pattern sheets even if the referenced parameter value
changes.
Restriction of the reference function:
가 The parameters to be referenced must be on the Common Data or Base
Station Transport Data sheet.
나 If a branch parameter has been set to be referenced by another parameters, the
summary data file does not enable or disable the parameters controlled by the
branch parameter. The CME will still check accuracy of all the parameters
during the import.

Under the Device IP Address object in the preceding figure, to retain the parameter
value of IP Address on port 0 in slot 7 of subrack 0 in cabinet 0 the same as the
parameter value of IP 1 under the NodeB IP address object on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet, you have to enter the path of the referenced parameter Base
Station Transport Data\NodeB IP address\IP 1 as the parameter value of IP
Address on port 0 in slot 7 of subrack 0 in cabinet 0. The CME assigns a parameter
value based on the reference path.
b. During IP route configuration, if the value obtained after a logic AND operation is
performed on the IP address and subnet mask is not equal to the IP address, you
need to use the macro function to convert the IP address to
an IP address that meets the rule.
The IP address verification rule is the same as the NE configuration rule. That is,
after a logical AND operation is performed on the IP address and subnet mask, the
obtained value is equal to the IP address.
For detailed operations related to macro functions, see Figure 5.2.

Figure 5.2 Settings

1 Specify the sheet, parameter group, and parameter name that correspond
to the IP addresses and subnet masks to be calculated.

Procedure
Step 1 Obtain the radio data planning file 3G Radio Network Planning Data Template.xls from
client installation path\client\client\Data\BSC version\Model\local\language\Template.
Step 2 Open the file and reconfigure the data as planned.
You are not allowed to modify the parameters marked in gray in the file.
Step 3 Import the radio data planning file.
The CME imports the file by NE. For example, the CME contains data about 10 NEs and data
only about one of the NEs is contained in the file to be imported. After the file is imported, the
CME reconfigures data only about the specified NE in the file. For data about the other NEs,
the CME reconfigures only the interlocked data.

 When you modify a parameter that supports automatic synchronization in UCELL, the CME
automatically updates the parameters (for example, external cell information) that are associated
with this parameter on other NEs in the planned data area. For details about associated parameters,
see the Associated_Parameter.xls file in client installation
path\client\client\Data\Common\AssociatedParameter\language. You can use the inter-U2000
neighboring cell management function to ensure that the cell associated parameters are consistent in
different U2000 systems.
 In the RNC in Pool management scenario, you need to configure neighboring cell data only on the
master RNC and then import the configured data. After the master RNC is configured, you can
synchronize the configuration of the backup RNC with the configuration of the master RNC using
the consistency check function.
1. On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose UMTS Application > Import Data >
Import Radio Network Planning Data (CME client mode) or CME > UMTS
Application > Import Data > Import Radio Network Planning Data (U2000 client
mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to select files.
2. Specify TXT, XLS, or XLSM as the format of the file you want to import, and click Add
File to select a data planning file.
3. Click Next. A dialog box is displayed for you to select an import mode.
4. Select configuration objects you want to import.
− Table 1.1 describes the configuration objects in Basic Info.
− Table 1.2 describes the configuration objects in External Cell Type and
Neighboring Cell Relationship Type and the import modes.

 When importing neighbor relationships, the CME automatically skips those involving cells that do
not exist.
 If cell indexes are not set for the external cell data in the imported file, the CME allocates the related
cell indexes based on whether the cell names exist on the CME. The allocation mechanism is as
follows:
 If an external cell exists on the CME, the CME changes the cell index to the existing one.
 If an excel cell does not exist on the CME, the CME automatically allocates a cell index.

Table 1.1 Setting attributes


Attribute Description

Cell ID The CME can automatically allocate IDs to new cells and TRXs.
TRX ID Automatic allocation rules: After you enter a reference ID in the
wizard, the CME searches for available IDs from the reference ID and
allocates them to new cells and TRXs. For example, after allocating a
reference TRX ID to the first TRX, the CME generates a new ID by
automatically adding 1 to the reference TRX ID and allocates the new
ID to the second TRX. If the generated ID has been used, the CME
automatically adds 1 to the ID until it is available and allocates the ID
to the second TRX.
NOTE
 The minimum ID available under the NE selected in the wizard functions as
the start value by default on the CME.
 When the imported data file contains different NEs, the CME searches for
available IDs from the preset start value and allocates them.

FH Attributes The CME generates data based on the FH type in the data file for RF
adjustment. If the FH type is not specified in the data file, the CME
generates data based on the FH type selected in the wizard.
NOTE
1. FH type has the following values: NO_FH, RF_FH, BaseBand_FH(BCCH
HOP), and BaseBand_FH(BCCH NOT HOP), indicating no FH, RF FH,
baseband FH (BCCH TRX involved), and baseband FH (BCCH TRX not
involved), respectively.
2. The configuration of the FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band parameter is
as follows:
 When FH type is NO_FH, the configuration of FH in PGSM/EGSM
frequency band does not take effect.
 When FH type is RF_FH, FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set
to In Different MAGroup or In One MAGroup.
 When FH type is BaseBand_FH(BCCH HOP) or BaseBand_FH(BCCH
NOT HOP), FH in PGSM/EGSM frequency band can be set to In
Different MAGroup, In One MAGroup, or EGSM Frequency Not In Any
MAGroup.

Attribute Description
 New Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains new cells or you need to re-allocate channels of
existing cells. For details about channel allocation rules, see
Channel Allocation Rules.
NOTE
In the data file for RF adjustment, if Cell Extension Type is set to Double
Timeslot Extension Cell, the configuration of Channel Rule does not take
effect. The CME automatically allocates timeslots 0 and 2 on the BCCH TRX to
the BCCH and SDCCH, respectively, and allocates all the other timeslots in the
cell to TCHs.
 Existed Cells Channel Rule: configured when the data file for RF
adjustment contains only new TRXs or you need to add TRXs in an
existing cell.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 0 for TRXs is selected, the
CME re-allocates all channels of the imported cells based on the
channel allocation rule specified by New Cells Channel Rule.
− When Channel Allocation Rule 1 for TRXs is selected, the
CME allocates only channels of new TRXs based on the
following rules:
1. Rank TRXs by TRX No. in ascending order.
2. Allocate PDCCHs: PDCCHs are allocated to channels 6, 5, 7, 4,
3, 2, 1, and 0 of a TRX in sequence.
3. Allocate SDCCHs: Based on the sequence of TRX numbers,
allocate SDCCHs to channel 0 of all new TRXs in the current
cell, channel 1, and so on.
NOTE
 The rules do not take effect when the cell to which a TRX belongs is a double
timeslot extension cell.
 The number of available channels is the difference between the sum of
Number of PDCH and Number of SDCCH specified in the data file for RF
adjustment and the number of configured channels of the cell to which new
TRXs belong.

add an eNodeB. For detailed operations, see section "Creating eNodeBs" in "Creating Base
Stations" in 3900 Series Base Station Initial Configuration Guide.
Create a summary data file.
 Customize a summary data file (insecure networking).

Procedure
Step 1 Open the summary data file in the basic scenario by using the function of customizing a
summary data file.
1. On the menu bar, choose Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (CME client
mode) or CME > Advanced > Customize Summary Data File (U2000 client mode). A
dialog box is displayed for you to open the summary data file.
2. Perform operations.
− To adjust the sheets, configuration objects, and parameter names in a user-defined
summary data file, select Custom to select a user-defined summary data file.
− To use a default summary data file, select Default, GBTS/NodeB/eNodeB
Summary, eNodeB, eNodeB version, and Scenario Basic Summary Template in
sequence.

You are advised to select the default summary data file Scenario Basic Summary Template. The causes
are as follows:
1. Scenario Basic Summary Template is the minimum set of configuration parameters for base
station creation. After you select information required for creating base stations, such as the link
mode, telecom operator sharing mode, and security information on the customization wizard, the
CME automatically adds related parameters to the summary data file according to your selection.
You can use the customization wizard to combine base station creation scenarios, reducing
redundant parameters generated in the summary data file.
2. Other default summary data files are classified by scenario and contain all parameters in the related
scenarios. Therefore, the following problems may occur:
 Redundant parameters are generated.
 A summary data file fails to be verified due to data collision when the customization wizard is used.
You can learn the introduction to scenarios by checking the information displayed on the GUI of the
summary data file.

Edit a summary data file.

Procedure
Step 1 Open a user-defined summary data file.
Step 2 On the menu bar of the Excel file, click Add-Ins.
If the macro function is not displayed under Add-Ins, verify the following settings:
 In Microsoft Office Excel 2003, the macro function must be enabled and the macro
security level must be set to Medium.
 In Microsoft Office Excel 2007 and Excel 2010, the macro function must be enabled.
Step 3 (Optional) Edit the data that has been negotiated with telecom operators in the LLD data file.
Only eNodeBs support the LLD data file.
You need to convert a summary data file into an LLD data file first. After configuring data in
the LLD data file, convert the LLD data file into a summary data file.

This function is available only after you select the LLD column of related parameters when customizing
a summary data file.
1. In the summary data file, click to convert it into an LLD data file.
The sheet named Common Data maps COMMON. The other sheet names remain
unchanged.
2. Edit the prepared data in the LLD data file.

By default, the CME provides the parameter values of Qos based on the network design. You can
manually delete records from or add records to Qos as required. After the LLD data file has been
converted into the summary data file, parameters are automatically edited in the corresponding locations
in the summary data file according to the conversion principles shown in Figure 3.1. The existing data in
the summary data file is overwritten.

Figure 3.1 Conversion principles for the parameters under the Qos object

If Service Type has two records IKE and Ping under the Qos object in the LLD data
file, the mapping (1) does not map the two records.

3. Click to apply the data in the LLD data file to the summary data
file.
Step 4 Edit basic data.
1. Edit global data, which is the same for all base stations, on the Common Data sheet.
Such parameters include the telecom operator information and OSS IP address.
2. Edit basic information, which is different for all base stations, on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet or the MO list sheet (XXXX List). For example:
− Edit the basic base station information including the base station name and type on
the Base Station Transport Data sheet.
− Edit base station functions and locations on the corresponding MO list sheet
(XXXX List).
Step 5 Edit device data.
1. The configuration data of devices uses the values in the base station template. Therefore,
you need to set the name of the prepared base station template on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet.

Only the default template name is displayed in the drop-down list for selecting a template in the
summary data file. Therefore, before selecting a user-defined template, you have to click
to add the user-defined template name to the drop-down list.
Information about the user-defined template must be consistent with that about the existing template on
the CME.
2. Edit clock data and time data on the Common Data sheet.
Step 6 Edit transport data.
1. Edit the data planned for each base station, such as the IP address, subnet, and port
number, on the Base Station Transport Data sheet.
2. Edit the parameters for the MOs corresponding to each interface on the corresponding
MO sheets (XXXX List or XXXX Pattern). For example, device IP addresses and SCTP
links are MOs.
a. If the value of a parameter on the XXXX Pattern sheet varies among base stations,
you can click and select the parameter that needs to be referenced.
Microsoft Excel automatically generates the reference path for the parameter in the
summary data file. Figure 6.1 provides an example for using the reference function.
Advantage of the reference function: The value of one parameter can be referenced
on multiple XXXX Pattern sheets. Therefore, after a reference relationship is set,
you only need to change the referenced parameter value and do not need to modify
the parameters on the XXXX Pattern sheets even if the referenced parameter value
changes.
Restriction of the reference function:
가 The parameters to be referenced must be on the Common Data or Base
Station Transport Data sheet.
나 If a branch parameter has been set to be referenced by another parameters, the
summary data file does not enable or disable the parameters controlled by the
branch parameter. The CME will still check accuracy of all the parameters
during the import.

Figure 6.1 Example for using the reference function

Under the DevIPPattern object in the preceding figure, to retain the parameter
value of Mask on port 0 in slot 7 of subrack 0 in cabinet 0 the same as the
parameter value of PeerMask under the OMCH object on the Base Station
Transport Data sheet, you have to enter the path of the referenced parameter
eNodeB Transport Data\OMCH\PeerMask as the parameter value of Mask on
port 0 in slot 7 of subrack 0 in cabinet 0. The CME assigns a parameter value based
on the reference path.
b. During IP route configuration, if the value obtained after a logic AND operation is
performed on the IP address and subnet mask is not equal to the IP address, you
need to use the macro function to convert the IP address to an
IP address that meets the rule.
The IP address verification rule is the same as the NE configuration rule. That is,
after a logical AND operation is performed on the IP address and subnet mask, the
obtained value is equal to the IP address.
For detailed operations related to macro functions, see Figure 6.2.

8.5 Preparing Data Through New Co-MPT Base Station


Deployment and Cell/Radio Parameter Inheritance
Overview
In mode transition, co-MPT reconstruction cannot be used if data on the live network needs
massive adjustments, such as transmission adjustment, conflict of subrack and slot numbers
among base stations in different modes, change of cabinet types, and inconformity of sector or
sector device numbers with site requirements after reconstruction. For these scenarios, new
base station deployment+RF migration can be used to perform mode transition, that is, deploy
a new co-MPT base station and migrate the radio data on the live network to the new base
station.
During migration of the radio data, RF, antenna, and baseband resources of the existing base
station can be reused, that is, these resources can be migrated to the target base station
together with the radio data. If the target base station is newly deployed, the radio global
parameters of a certain source base station can be migrated to it to improve the data
preparation efficiency of the target base station.

Issue 03 (2016-12-09) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 610


Copyright © Huawei
Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 8 Preparing Data

Principles
The CME supports migration of the baseband, RF unit, and cell data. If the data to be
migrated is inherited from the base station on the live network, it does not need to be filled in
the summary data file.

Table 1.1 Inheritance of data types of a base station


Data Type Support for Migration

Cabinet and subrack data No


Baseband data Yes
RF data Yes
Antenna data Yes
Cell data (including neighboring cell data) Yes
Radio global data Yes
Transmission data No

 If cells are migrated from the source base station to the target base station, network
optimization parameters are inherited automatically and the neighbor relationships are
automatically reconfigured.
 (Optional) Global radio objects of the source base station (for GSM/UMTS/LTE) can be
inherited to the target base station.
The following figure shows the migration (for detailed operations, see 8.5.4 Filling In Data
for New Base Station Deployment and RF Migration).

 If new base station deployment and RF migration are performed using the Base Station
Reconstruction Express function and NE names of a mode of the new co-MPT base
station are the same as those of the source base station for RF migration on the live
network, the CME supports site overwriting, that is, the base station on the live network
is deleted and the new target base station inherits the transport data of the source base
station. This scenario has the following constraints:
− Site overwriting only supports the migration from a single-mode base station to a
co-MPT base station, but not from a co-MPT base station to another co-MPT base
station.
− If other adjustments are required in the reconstruction (such as primary key
adjustments), new base station deployment and RF migration must be performed
before other adjustments in customizing a project, that is, complete new base station
deployment and RF migration before performing other data adjustments.
− For multiple new co-MPT base stations, if NE names of a mode are the same as
those of some base stations in the live network, and different from those of some
base stations in the live network, RF migration must be performed in batches. (This
is only confined to the same mode.) For example, if NE names of GSM of the new
co-MPT base stations are the same as those of the base station in the live network
and the NE names of UMTS of the new co-MPT base stations are different from
those of the base station in the live network, RF migration can be performed at the
same time.
− If the NE names of LTE of a new co-MPT base station are the same as those of the
base station in the live network and site overwriting is required, it is recommended
that cell associated parameters be not modified in RF migration. That is because the
CME does not automatically reconfigures the associated radio parameters in this
scenario.

For details about cell associated parameters, see Associated_Parameter.xls under the client installation
path\client\client\Data\Common\AssociatedParameter\language directory.
− The following describes the base station-level data to be inherited on the base
station controller side in site overwriting scenarios.
가 If the transmission-related MOs listed in the following table are not defined in
the summary data file, they are inherited from the live network.

Tip 2: Select the import and export options of each function (the CME provides default option
settings) and set the parameters. No setting is required for NE data.
When setting the export options, you can select the summary data file customized in step 1 or
select the MO if the summary data file is not customized.

To set the export options, select Export Scripts. The CME generates script files on the base
station controller side after the data is imported.
 If One by one is selected, the CME separates the scripts on the base station controller side
by base station, which facilitates further delivery by base station.
 If Batch is selected, the scripts on the base station controller side are not separated, which
applies to the scenario where data of all base stations is uniformly delivered.

Tip 3: (Refer to this tip if the summary data file is not customized) Select the migration
scenario as planned when setting the export options for RF migration. (The summary data file
type to be exported on the CME and the default MO vary according to different scenarios.)
 If only Migrate CPRI chain and RXUs, CXUs, sectors, and sector equipment on the

Operation column.
 If only Migrate cell and its subobjects is selected, the CME exports the RF migration
summary data file excluding the Operation column. If hardware data needs to be
planned in the base station design file using the NEP-SD tool, select Plan hardware
data in the BTS design file.
 If both options are selected, the CME exports the RF migration summary data file
including the Operation column (migration by chain).
Click View and edit detailed information to configure the MOs to be exported.

8.5.2 Specifying NE Mapping for RF Migration


This step is required because you need to specify the source and target base stations for RF
migration first in this scenario.

Issue 03 (2016-12-09) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 622


Copyright © Huawei
Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 8 Preparing Data

In this scenario, the target base station is the new co-MPT base station to be deployed. You
need to specify the name of the base station before deployment.

1. Click to export the project template.

If the edited data in a project template needs to be inherited, select Inherited existing reconstruction
project data and the corresponding file. The CME copies data from corresponding parameter lists of the
Base Station Transport Data, Pattern, and List sheets to a new project template. (Data in the
following sheets cannot be inherited: base station name sheet of summary data files in the MOC-
Integration MOC View mode, RF Migration NEs Relationship, Auto Deployment, Board Style,
MBTS_BindInfo, Base Station CN SRN Adjustment, and co-MPT reconstruction-related sheets.)
2. In the RF Migration NEs Relationship sheet of the exported template, specify the
source and target base stations.

When specifying the source and target base stations, pay attention to the following:
 The Source NE and Target NE fields must be set to NE names.
 You can specify multiple source NEs and define the number of NEs using macro button Configure
Source NE Columns. Each column corresponds to a source base station.
 The Global Radio Reference field specifies the source base station of which the global radio
parameter settings are inherited by the target base station. Set this field to the identity of the base
station. For example, set Global Radio Reference to NodeB1 if the NE name of NodeB1 is n111,
the NE name of NodeB2 is n222, and the target base station inherits the global radio parameter
settings of n111. The target base station automatically inherits global radio data after migration. The
global radio data excludes transmission interface objects, external cell objects, objects referencing
cell objects or sub-objects of cell objects, and objects referencing transmission objects or equipment
objects.
 You need to delete the default data in the template example.
Refer to the following figure to fill in the data.

3. After editing the file, save and close it.

8.5.3 Exporting Existing Base Station Data


The CME exports the data from the source base station according to RF Migration NEs
Relationship filled by the user. The following figure shows the detailed operations.

Skip this step if reconstruction data can be obtained from an LLD data file.To obtain the tool for
conversion from an LLD data file to a summary data file, contact the CME representative, Zhang Yi
(employee ID: 00334527).
If you need to configure the reconstruction data based on the configurations on the live network, export
the data on the source base station and then modify the exported data.

Figure 1.2 Exporting the reconstruction project data

In this scenario, the CME exports data based on the specified source base station. You need to
export the project by template in step 2 and select the template edited in 8.5.2 Specifying NE
Mapping for RF Migration.
When the CME exports the reconstruction project data, data in the RF Migration NEs
Relationship sheet of the specified source base station is exported to the summary data file.

8.5.4 Filling In Data for New Base Station Deployment and RF


Migration
Fill in the sheets other than RF Migration NEs Relationship based on the data plan.
Example provides an example for data configurations. You can fill in data based on onsite
conditions by referring to the example.
The following describes the scenario in the example.

tool for conversion from an LLD data file to a summary data file, contact the CME representative,
Zhang Yi (employee ID: 00334527). To obtain the tool for conversion from an LLD data file to a
summary data file, contact the CME representative, Zhang Yi (employee ID: 00334527).
 If equipment data is to be inherited using the NEP-SD tool, BTS Design File in the Base Station
Transport Data sheet of the summary data file refers to the base station design file generated using
the NEP-SD tool. BTS Design Cell ID in the cell-related sheet of the summary data file refers to the
planned cell ID in this design file. (The NEP-SD tool is not used in the sample data.) The following
figures show an example.

1. Fill in the data for new base station deployment.


The transport data cannot be inherited. You need to plan and fill in the data in the Base
Station Transport Data sheet. (Reference relationships with the parameter on the
Pattern sheet have been defined.)

The data exported by the CME is the data on the source base station. When filling in the data,
you need to change the base station name and base station ID to those of the target base
station as planned.

The maintenance mode can be set in the Application sheet when the data for new base
station deployment is filled in. This method is supported by the base stations of
SRAN11.0 and later versions. When the maintenance mode is set, the operations in
Setting NE Maintenance mode are not required.
2. Fill in the data for RF migration.
Details are as follows:
− Migrate the baseband board.

− Migrate the CPRI.


For example, migrate the RRU chain whose Source RRU Chain No. is 0 on the
U0971 source base station to the U0972 target base station as the RRU chain whose
Source RRU Chain No. is 1.
Click Move or Copy in Excel to add a Board Style sheet for new base station
deployment.

 For a summary data file excluding the Operation column, only items filled in the file can be
migrated when the summary data file is imported to the CME. For example, only the RRU chain
filled in the file can be migrated but the RRU or CXU on the RRU chain cannot be migrated. To
migrate these items, fill in the corresponding migration information in the file.
 For a summary data file including the Operation column, migration by chain is supported. For
example, if the RRU chain is filled in the file, the RRU and CXU on the RRU chain, and the sectors
and sector devices that use the RF module can be migrated together.
In the Board Style2 sheet used by the U0972 base station, click
to specify Expand/Migrate Object to RRU Chain and
Expand/Migrate Rows count to 1.

base station.

If cell subobjects to be migrated are defined in the summary data file, modify Cell
Name and Local Cell ID of the cell subobjects to those after migration. Fill in the
configuration data used after migrating on the target base station.
If cells are migrated from the source base station to the target base station, network
optimization parameters are inherited automatically and the neighbor relationships
are automatically reconfigured.

If names of the source base station and target base station are the same before and after migration, the
data of cells to be migrated does not need to be adjusted and only cells that require no migration need to
be deleted from the sheet.
− In the summary data file (excluding the Operation column) for RF migration,
modify the RF board used for cell migration.
Migrate the cell from the U0971 base station to the U0972 base station (Local Cell

6. Click Finish.
The exported data configuration scripts and deployment lists are stored in the following
paths:
− Data configuration script: export directory\CfgData\base station name
− Deployment lists: export directory\ADList\

 If you modified the associated parameters for GSM or UMTS cells, the CME automatically adjusts
external cell parameters of the corresponding NEs that have neighbor relationships with the GSM or
UMTS cells. The auto-deployment data can be exported only for new base stations. If data of the
base station in the live network is changed, you need to export the incremental scripts by choosing
Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts.
 To activate scripts, it is recommended that the CME script executor be used for scripts on the
BSC/RNC side and for base station scripts.
 If the scripts on the base station controller side are activated by the script executor and the scripts are
exported in "One by one" mode using the Base Station Reconstruction Express, you can check the
base station name of each corresponding script in the Description field. The CME adds dependencies
between scrips. Execute the base station addition scripts before executing the RF migration scripts.

Commissioning

For details about the remote commissioning and USB flash drive-based commissioning, see 3900 Series
Base Station Commissioning Guide.

The LTE data configuration must be activated before the GSM and UMTS data configuration
because GUL co-transmission is implemented through the backplane and transmission ports
are provided on the LTE side after mode transition. Connect the transmission cable on the
GSM side to the LTE side and then activate the UMTS and GSM data configuration
successively if only one transmission cable is used. If two transmission cables are used,
connect the unused cable to the LTE side and then activate the UMTS and GSM data
configuration successively. There is no requirement on whether the other transmission cable
connected to the GSM side must be disconnected or not.
When you adjust the data of the original mode or when the data of the new mode includes
controller data, you must export an incremental script and use the script executor to activate
the script. For the operation methods, see 11.1Activating Data in Incremental Scripts.
For the newly added mode to the co-MPT multimode base station, the remote U2000-based
commissioning without auxiliary equipment is recommended. For the operation methods, see
11.2Base Station Deployment by PnP.
For the newly added mode to the separate-MPT multimode base station, either the remote
U2000-based commissioning without auxiliary equipment or the local USB + remote U2000-
based commissioning can be used. For the operation methods, see 11.2Base Station
Deployment by PnP and 11.3Base Station Deployment by USB.
For the newly added mode to the co-MPT reconstruction and capacity expansion, if the main
control board of the co-MPT base station is WMPT or LMPT, replace the WMPT or LMPT
with UMPT. The local USB + remote U2000-based commissioning can be used. If the main
control board of the co-MPT base station is UMPT, the remote U2000-based commissioning
can be used. For the operation methods, see 11.4PnP-based Co-MPT Reconstruction and
11.3Base Station Deployment by USB.

11.1 Activating Data in Incremental Scripts


For the original mode, export the incremental scripts and use the script executor for data
activation during data adjustment.
For the new mode, export the incremental scripts and use the script executor for data
activation if data on the base station controller side exists.
1. The procedure for exporting the incremental scripts of the planned area is as follows:

Procedure
Step 1 On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose Area Management > Planned Area >
Export Incremental Scripts (CME client mode) or CME > Planned Area > Export
Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to export
scripts.
 If NE data in the planned data area has been modified, the CME automatically adds the
related NEs to the right pane.
 If data in the planned data area is not modified, the CME displays a message indicating
that incremental scripts cannot be generated.
Step 2 Specify a save path for scripts.
Step 3 (Optional) Set description for the scripts in Project description.
The CME uses the user-defined information in Project description as the file name prefix for
the folder saving the exported scripts to easily identify the exported scripts and identify
loaded projects in the script.
Step 4 Select a script export mode, for example, Break on Failure or Best Effort.
 Break on Failure: If an error occurs on any NE during the export, the import stops
immediately and no scripts are exported.
 Best Effort: The CME skips the NEs where errors occur and continues the export, and
the exported scripts do not contain NEs where errors occur.
Step 5 (Optional) Set an encryption mode for exported scripts.
 No: The exported scripts do not have encryption passwords and no encryption passwords
are required when you loading projects.
 Yes: The exported scripts have encryption passwords. When loading projects, you have
to enter encryption passwords by performing the following operations:

If an encrypted password has been set for the exproted script, you cannot check the script on the local
PC. Instead, you have to check it using the script executor.
1. Select Yes.
2. Click Set Password. In the displayed dialog box, enter the encryption password as
required.
3. Click OK.
The exported encrypted script files are in .ecf format.
Step 6 Select a mode for starting the script executor.

2. Perform the following steps to start an NE commissioning task for the scenario where
modes are added in co-MPT reconstruction.
Step 1 Create a task of site reconstruction on the U2000.
1. On the U2000, choose SON > Auto Deployment. On the Deployment List tab page,
right-click a site and choose Import Deployment List to import the deployment list
generated during data conversion.
2. On the Site Configuration Data tab page, upload data configurations of a co-MPT site
generated after site reconstruction to the U2000.
3. On the Controller Configuration Data tab page, upload MBSC reconstruction scripts
generated after site reconstruction to the U2000.
4. On the Software&Cold Patch tab page, upload GTMU conversion software and co-
MPT software to the U2000 if required based on site reconstruction requirements.

To upload the GTMU conversion software, set NE type to GBTS. To upload the co-MPT
software, set NE type to BTS3900.

Step 2 Download the GTMU conversion software and co-MPT software.


1. During PnP task settings, site software needs to be loaded beforehand to reduce the time
for software loading at night. For batch reconstruction of multiple sites, finish data
configuration in the Task Parameter Settings dialog box for each site beforehand.
Details are as follows:
− Select Download GTMU evolution software and Download site software when
separate-MPT GBTSs are reconstructed with GTMU conversion adopted.

− Select only Download site software when separate-MPT GBTSs/eGBTSs are


reconstructed with GTMU abandonment adopted or when modes are added during
co-MPT reconstruction with the GSM mode not involved.

2. Start a PnP-based co-MPT reconstruction task on the U2000.

After this task is executed, the status of the task will be Waiting for Confirmation. In this
case, do not confirm it. Then, you can repeat the task subsequently. If you confirm it, you
have to create another PnP task later.

Step 3 Restart the site reconstruction task. Specifically, execute reconstruction scripts (when a base
station controller is involved), and download and activate the configuration file.
1. Restart the PnP task.

In BSC node redundancy scenarios, perform the PnP tasks on the master and slave BSCs at the same
time.
Finish data configuration in the Task Parameter Settings dialog box before
reconstruction. Specifically, select Download BSC configuration data, Query GBTS
license information, Deliver license, Download site software, Download site
configuration, and Activate site. Then click Restart to start the batch reconstruction.

For the reconstruction scenarios of GU+L/GL+U with BBUs interconnected, select Change
the peer main control board to co-MPT to ensure that BBU 1 works as the secondary BBU
after reconstruction; or select Activate GTMU evolution software when the preceding steps
are performed for a co-MPT base station using the UMPT after reconstruction.

2. Click Restart to start the reconstruction.


3. After the task is complete, click Confirm Completion.

Ensure a reachable route between the U2000 and IP address of the base station after
reconstruction before clicking Confirm Completion. In this way, licenses can be successfully
delivered, and the PnP task will be complete.

Step 4 Adjust data of intermediate devices.

This step is required only when co-transmission is not used before reconstruction and GSM uses the IP
over FE transmission.
1. If gateways of the separate-MPT multimode base stations before the reconstruction use
different next-hop IP addresses, use either of the original IP addresses and next-hop IP
addresses for the router or Layer 3 switch for co-transmission after the reconstruction.
2. If the gateways of the separate-MPT multimode base stations before the reconstruction
use the same next-hop IP address, skip this step.
Step 5 Deliver incremental BSC scripts (when GSM/UMTS is to be added).
Manage activation data using the CME executor. For details, see Activating Data.
Step 6 Adjust and deliver the license.
The following describes how to adjust "UMPT Multi Mode License" for an eGBTS when
GSM is involved in reconstruction.
 On the U2000, synchronize configurations, and the eGBTS that is newly deployed on the
BSC will be displayed.
 On the eGBTS licensed-resource allocation page of the U2000, choose a BSC, right-
click the newly deployed eGBTS, and choose Modify. In the displayed window, set
UMPT Multi Mode License(GSM) (per UMPT) to 1, and click OK.
 On the licensed-resource allocation page, right-click the eGBTS and choose Allocate
Remaining Resources to BSC. The licensed value of the GBTS (BSC) is automatically
modified.
 Right-click the activated eGBTS license file and choose Distribute.
Step 7 Verify the reconstruction.
Check whether the reconstruction succeeds. If it succeeds, adjust the DHCP server, and then
modes are successfully added. If it fails, perform the following operations to roll back base
stations to the status before reconstruction.
13.4 How Can I Roll Back Base Stations When Co-MPT Reconstruction Fails?
Perform the following operations to verify the co-MPT reconstruction:
1. Start the U2000, and check whether the target base station has become a co-MPT base
station whose NE type is now BTS3900.
− Right-click the target base station and choose Properties. In the displayed NE
Properties dialog box, check whether the value of NE Type is BTS3900.

− For the reconstruction scenarios of GU+L/GL+U/UL, the system will automatically


convert the base station deployed with the reference mode to a co-MPT base station
during the reconstruction, but will not handle the base station deployed with the
non-reference mode. In this case, you need to manually check whether the
reconstruction succeeds and whether the rollback is required (the rollback is not
required after the reconstruction succeeds). If the reconstruction succeeds, manually
remove the base station deployed with the non-reference mode from the U2000

MBTS topology. After the base station is removed, its historical alarms and traffic
statistics are all deleted and you cannot query them. The status of the base station
deployed with the non-reference mode is unavailable. Delete such a base station as
follows:
가 Select the name of the base station to be deleted on the topology.
나 Right-click the base station and choose Delete.

다 Click Yes in the Confirm dialog box.

2. Check whether services of each mode are processed properly after reconstruction.
3. Check whether new alarms are generated after co-MPT reconstruction. If new alarms are
generated, clear them.
− Check whether alarms related to separate-MPT NEs indicate errors. If they do not,
manually clear them.
− If alarms are user-defined alarms before reconstruction, such as an environmental
alarm, you need to define alarms for the co-MPT base station after reconstruction
because the NE type has changed to BTS3900.
4. After the reconstruction, check whether boards are functioning properly, software
versions of these boards are correct, and the status of cells is normal. Check whether the
software versions of the UMPT, GTMU, and LMPT meet expectations. Note that the
GTMU works as an interface board and the LMPT works as a signaling capacity
expansion board after reconstruction.

5. Check whether the values of service KPIs specific to each mode are normal and whether
these values unexpectedly fluctuate after co-MPT reconstruction.
For measurement items registered on the U2000 before reconstruction, you need to register
measurement items for the co-MPT base station because the NE type has changed to
BTS3900.
Step 8 Adjust the DHCP server.
The DHCP server must be deployed on the U2000 after the reconstruction. If the DHCP
server is deployed on the BSC before the reconstruction, you need to switch it from the BSC
to the U2000. If the DHCP server is deployed on the U2000 before the reconstruction, skip
this step.

the co-MPT base station. When configuration data differs with modes, the tool modifies
the configuration data for the modes involved based on the value of the
SRANBaselineRAT parameter in the data planning template. If this parameter is not
specified, the tool applies the configuration data used on the more advanced mode to the
other modes of the MBTS in question. For example, the tool applies the configuration
data used on the UMTS side to the GSM of a GU dual-mode base station. If this
parameter is specified, the tool applies the configuration data used on the specified mode
to the other modes of the MBTS in question.
If consolidated data affects the system, alarms will be generated and displayed in the
result area and conversion logs. You need to determine whether the data needs to be
adjusted based on actual network conditions.

13.2 Preparing GSM Licenses


For the reconstruction where the GSM mode is involved, an eGBTS license file introduced in
SRAN8.0 is required in addition to a BSC license file. From SRAN8.0 onwards, the license
management system is consistent between GSM and UMTS in co-MPT reconstruction
scenarios. Specifically, the licensed resources for a BSC are contained in a BSC license file,
and the licensed resources for the GBTSs are contained in an eGBTS license file. In versions
earlier than SRAN8.0, the licensed resources for both the BSC and GBTS are contained in a
BSC license file. For co-MPT reconstruction, you need to split the existing permanent
commercial or permanent&temporary license file of a BSC into a BSC license file (containing
the licensed resources for the BSC only) and an eGBTS license file (containing the licensed
resources for eGBTSs only). In addition, you may need to purchase certain licenses for
features deployed on base stations (the licenses are quoted by sales personnel). Then global
technical service (GTS) personnel merge a newly delivered eGBTS license file with the
eGBTS license file after splitting on the license website. The following figure shows an
example. Steps boxed in the dotted line are optional and can be performed by frontline
personnel according to the actual situation.

If a BSC uses a commissioning license or temporary commercial license, you cannot obtain
an eGBTS license file by splitting the license on the FNO. In this scenario, you need to apply
for a commissioning license or temporary commercial license for the eGBTS by using the
eGBTS license template at least one week in advance.
Note that Huawei now supports two license distribution platforms: FNO and ESDP. You can
apply for licenses on either of them. This document uses the FNO as an example to describe
license application.
GSM license preparation is required only when the first batch of base stations to be
reconstructed are all GBTSs.

(Recommended) Using a Permanent Commercial License or


Permanent&Temporary Commercial License
Step 1 Split the license.
After the reconstruction, obtain the license file for the eGBTS and that for the corresponding
BSC by splitting the original BSC license file. The following describes how to split the BSC
license file:
 On the Web LMT of the BSC6900/BSC6910 to which the eGBTS belongs, revoke the
BSC license file on the BSC and obtain the revocation code.
a. Run the LST LICENSE command to query the activated license file.

b. Run the RVK LICENSE command. In this step, enter the name of the license file
to be revoked.

 Log in to the FNO on the website of license.huawei.com. Choose GTS Portal > Split
GSM License.
 Enter the revocation code and click Search. Then the resources to be split are listed.

 Click Submit. The system will split a BSC license file into a new BSC license file and
an eGBTS license file.
After the task is complete, the FNO will send the results to your mailbox. If the task fails,
click Error Repair. If the error persists, contact the IT hotline or License Fulfillment
Department.

Click My Task and then download the license files. You can also download the license files
from your mailbox.

Only licensed control items for features supported by both eGBTSs and GBTSs and those
supported only by GBTSs can be split through the preceding steps. (License control items for
features supported only by GBTSs can be delivered by the U2000 to the BSC in order to
control the GBTSs. In this way, license files do not need to be replaced when the eGBTSs
support such features subsequently.) The UMPT Multi Mode License(GSM)(per UMPT)
supported by eGBTSs needs to be separately applied for, and is not required in GO co-MPT
reconstruction. Such license control items for eGBTSs as the IPSec bypass (per BTS), UMPT
Multi Mode License(GSM), Antenna Feeder Intermodulation Test (per TRX), and Spectrum
Scan (per TRX) must be applied for in other ways. For details, see GBSS18.1 eGBTS License
Application Guide.
Only a permanent commercial license and the permanent license in a permanent&temporary
license can be split into an eGBTS license file. A commissioning license or a temporary
commercial license cannot be split into an eGBTS license file on the FNO. You need to apply
for a commissioning license or temporary commercial license for the eGBTS using the license
application template at least one week early.

Step 2 Apply for new license control items that cannot be obtained from step 1 for the eGBTS, such
as the license control item "UMPT Multi Mode License(GSM)", and incorporate them into
the eGBTS license file after splitting.
----End

If a commissioning license or a temporary commercial license is used for reconstruction, skip


this step. You can obtain all the licenses for the eGBTS using the eGBTS license application
template by performing step 1.

To incorporate license files, perform the following operations:


1. Visit license.huawei.com to log in to the FNO.
2. On the FNO, choose GTS Portal > Manage Licenses > Manage Licenses.

3. In the displayed window, choose ESN from the drop-down list of Search By. Enter an
ESN in the text box of Search For. Click to query all the license files of this NE.

4. Select the NE license files for the same product. Click Consolidate and the window
shown in the following figure will be displayed. Select the incorporated license files to
be downloaded and click Save to File to save these files on the local PC.

The license control item "UMPT Multi Mode License(GSM)" must be applied for when
multimode base stations to be reconstructed serve GSM. In this scenario, the license
control item should be quoted first by sales personnel, and then the GTS personnel apply
for the license control item. For more information, see steps 1 to 5 of section "Applying
for a License During Version Upgrade, Capacity Expansion, or New Feature
Deployment" in chapter "License Application Operations Guidance in Different
Scenarios" in GBSS18.1 eGBTS License Application Guide. For the license control items
"Antenna Feeder Intermodulation Test (per TRX) and "Spectrum Scan (per TRX)", only
a temporary license can be applied for when a permanent commercial license or
permanent&temporary commercial license is used. For more information, see steps 1 to
4 of section "Applying for a Permanent&Temporary/Trial License" in chapter "License
Application Operations Guidance in Different Scenarios" in GBSS18.1 eGBTS License
Application Guide.
"IPSec bypass (per BTS)" is a customized license control item, and is usually not
required during the reconstruction. If it is required, the license control item should be
quoted first by sales personnel, and then the GTS personnel apply for the license control
item. For more information, see steps 1 to 5 of section "Applying for a License During
Version Upgrade, Capacity Expansion, or New Feature Deployment" in chapter "License
Application Operations Guidance in Different Scenarios" in GBSS18.1 eGBTS License
Application Guide.

The steps above have covered the operations for obtaining the eGBTS license and
incorporating new license control items.

(Not Recommended) Using a Temporary Commercial License or Commissioning


License for GSM
If no permanent commercial license or permanent&temporary license for a BSC is available
during the reconstruction, apply for temporary commercial or commissioning licenses for the
eGBTS and BSC.
If the permanent commercial license or permanent&temporary license for a BSC is available
during the reconstruction and the eGBTS will be restored to a GBTS after the reconstruction,
retain the existing BSC license and apply for a temporary commercial or commissioning
license for the eGBTS.
When these two types of license files are used for reconstruction, all license control items for
an eGBTS (the license control item "UMPT Multi Mode License(GSM)" must be contained)
must be directly applied for instead of being obtained by splitting the BSC license file.
For details on how to apply for a temporary commercial license for the eGBTS, see section
"Applying for a License in Exceptional Cases" of chapter "License Application Operations
Guidance in Different Scenarios" in GBSS18.1 eGBTS License Application Guide.
For details on how to apply for a commissioning license for the eGBTS, see section
"Manually Applying for a Commissioning License" of chapter "License Application
Operations Guidance in Different Scenarios" in GBSS18.1 eGBTS License Application Guide.

13.3 What Should I Do If an Error Prompting "Data


Preparation failed" Occurs During the Execution of a PnP
Task?
An error occurs during the PnP task execution, as shown in the following figure.

The error indicates that the version of GTMU conversion software saved on the U2000 is
inconsistent with that in the auto-deployment list. First, check whether the parameter
ActBTSSoftwareVersion is specified in the data planning template and whether the value is
correct. If the parameter is not specified or the parameter value is incorrect, specify or correct
it and convert data again. If the parameter is correctly specified, check whether the GTMU
conversion software package has been uploaded to the U2000 and whether the version is
consistent with the specified one. If the software package has not been uploaded or the
package version is inconsistent with the specified one, upload the specified software package
and execute the PnP task again.

13.4 How Can I Roll Back Base Stations When Co-MPT


Reconstruction Fails?
1. Adjust site hardware.
Restore the hardware to the status before the reconstruction.
 Replace the transmission and main control boards with those used before reconstruction
and insert the original boards to the corresponding slots.
 Replace the baseband processing boards with those used before reconstruction and insert
the original boards to the corresponding slots. In addition, remove the newly added
baseband processing boards or UBRI boards.
 Replace the RF modules with those used before reconstruction and insert the original
units to the corresponding boards. In addition, adjust the antenna system.
 Connect the transmission cables to the original ports before reconstruction.
 Connect the CPRI cables to the original ports before reconstruction.
 Reset the RF boards whose CPRI cable connections are adjusted.
2. Roll back data configurations on the BSC side.

This operation is required when the GSM mode is involved in the reconstruction.

Upload scripts through the CME script executor. Specifically, select the directory where the
rollback scripts described in 3 are saved to import the BSC rollback scripts. Then execute the
rollback scripts to roll back BSC data configuration.
3. Create a NodeB or an eNodeB on the U2000.
Create the same separate-MPT NEs as those before reconstruction through the Auto
Deployment function.
4. Perform a power-off reset on the GTMU.

When GSM is involved in reconstruction and the GTMU is converted, a power-off reset is
required on the GTMU for rollback to prevent the GTMU from exceptions after the GTMU
software version is rolled back and the GTMU works as a main control unit again.

Perform this operation once the NodeB/eNodeB is normal. You can run the following
command to power off the GTMU: RST BRDPWROFF:CN=0,SRN=0,SN=6;
5. Change the NodeB's OMCH IP address configured on an RNC.
Change the NodeB's OMCH IP address configured on an RNC to the OMCH IP address of the
NodeB before the reconstruction for rollback in the following reconstruction scenarios: UL
site reconstruction (LTE is deployed as the reference mode), GL+U site reconstruction, and
two BBUs are consolidated (including UMTS and LTE, with LTE as the reference mode).

Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

 Run the LST OMCH command to query the OMCH IP address of the NodeB.
 Run the MOD UNODEBIP command to change the NodeB's OMCH IP address
configured on the RNC to the OMCH IP address of the NodeB before reconstruction.
The following is a command example: MOD UNODEBIP: IDTYPE=BYID,
NODEBID=1, NBTRANTP=IPTRANS_IP, NBIPOAMIP="10.171.35.123",
NBIPOAMMASK="255.255.255.0", IPSRN=0, IPSN=18, IPLOGPORTFLAG=NO;

13.5 Constraints and Limitations


Limitations on the Standalone CME
1. After the standalone CME is used to prepare co-MPT configuration data in offline mode,
the cabinet No., subrack No., and slot No. of the main control board cannot be adjusted
and the main control board cannot be removed during the device reconstruction on the
standalone CME. In the co-MPT reconstruction scenario where the GSM mode is
included, the GTMU handling method cannot be changed during other reconstruction
activities in offline mode after co-MPT reconstruction. For example, GTMU evolution is
adopted during co-MPT reconstruction, and the GTMU cannot be abandoned during
device reconstruction. If you change the GTMU handling method, the deployment list
exported by the standalone CME after configuration data is prepared will be abnormal.
2. The configuration data of the GBTS can be converted only in By ID mode by using the
standalone CME. To set the By ID mode, select By ID in the GSM Script Index Type
Options dialog box.

Copyright © Huawei
Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

Limitation on NE Equipment
1. Data of only the following GSM base stations can be reconstructed: DBS3900 (GSM),
BTS3900 (GSM), BTS3900A (GSM), BTS3900L (GSM), and BTS3900AL (GSM).
2. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported on super base stations.
3. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if a GBTS is configured with a DRFU, DRRU,
or UTRP.
4. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if the Send Mode parameter of a GBTS is set to
a value other than NOCOMB(No Combination) or DTIC(Transmit Independency or
Combination).
5. Omit the following functions during co-MPT reconstruction if any of them are enabled
for a GBTS: inter-module RF frequency hopping or inter-module power sharing, and
inter-PA RF frequency hopping or inter-PA power sharing.
6. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if two sectors in different modes share part of
antennas before reconstruction, or if two baseband devices in different modes share part
of baseband processing units before reconstruction.
7. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if alarms related to configuration conflicts
persist. The configuration may conflict when the baseband processing boards or RF units
(except those in the dual-star topology) are configured in the same place for two modes
or different boards are configured in the same place for two modes.
8. The GTMUa boards for the GSM sites can only fall into disuse and cannot be converted
after the reconstruction.
9. If the replaced LMPT and WMPT boards are used as main control boards in other sites,
the IP configuration data retained in the boards may conflict with that of other sites. In
this scenario, download the data configuration using the USB or LMT before connecting
them to the transmission network.
10. Only one user can convert the GBTSs under the same BSC for one time.
11. In the BSC node redundancy scenarios, the scenario where the GBTSs can be
reconstructed to eGBTSs only after the BSC switchover is not considered. (This is new
in SRAN9.0.)
12. When the GBTS includes RFU and RRU and the RRUs are connected to the UBRI and
RFU to the GTMU through the CPRI cables, the GBTS is reconstructed into the eGBTS
through GTMU evolution. This is because a new UBRI is required if the GTMU is
abandoned, and the Multi-site Cell feature for GBTS does not support co-cell between
two transmission boards.
13. The separate-MPT base stations configured with BBU3910 can be reconstructed to co-
MPT base stations. Hardware configuration (subrack quantity, subrack type, subrack

number, board quantity, board type, and slot number) remains unchanged after the
reconstruction. (This is new in SRAN9.0.)
14. The BBU3910A has only one main control unit, and therefore it supports multiple modes
implemented only by the co-MPT. In this case, it involves the UO/LO co-MPT
reconstruction only. If the BBU3910A needs to support multimode co-MPT, it is
recommended that a new multimode co-MPT base station be deployed or modes be
added to the main control board after single-mode co-MPT reconstruction. The
BBU3910A neither supports a GBTS nor BBU interconnection. (This is new in
SRAN10.0.)
15. After a separate-MPT multimode base station enabled with the CPRI MUX feature is
reconstructed into a co-MPT base station, the UBRIb or UBBPd serves as the converging
board if CPRI ports of the co-MPT base station carry GU/GL services. For details, see
CPRI MUX Feature Parameter Description in 3900 Series Base Station Product
Documentation.
16. To reduce the GSM service interruption duration, load the GTMUb/GTMUc conversion
software before co-MPT reconstruction from GU/GL/GU+L/GL+U base station. In this
scenario, you are advised to perform reconstruction for ten base stations in a batch.
Reconstruction for too many base stations at a time may fail within the specified period
of service interruption because the BSC scripts are executed one by one. If multiple
MBTSs to be reconstructed have the same reference mode, reconstruction can be
implemented at a time. If multiple MBTSs to be reconstructed have different reference
modes, reconstruction must be implemented in different batches.
17. If different BSCs have GBTSs with the same name, faults may occur during
configuration data conversion. In this scenario, run the MOD BTS command on the BSC
LMT to modify the name of the GBTSs. Similarly, before co-MPT reconstruction for
GU, UL, GUL, UO base stations, query the names of NodeBs on the following three
sides: on the RNC (by running the LST UNODEB command), on the U2000, and in the
NodeB configuration data (by running the LST NE command). Ensure that the names
are consistent on all three sides. Otherwise, if NE names on the U2000 are changed
during reconstruction when the deployment list is imported, functions of these NodeBs
cannot be displayed on the U2000 topology.

Limitation on Transmission
1. If the GBTS uses TDM or HDLC transmission (TDM over E1 for GTMU or other
transmission), change the TDM over E1 transmission to IP over E1 or IP over FE.
Otherwise, co-MPT reconstruction is not supported.
2. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if a BSC pool is used and the transmission over
the Abis interface is used by different operators.
3. In the E1 backup scenario, if configuration data of the GBTS indicates that the primary
channel of the base station uses IP over E1 transmission and the secondary channel of
the base station uses IP over FE transmission, co-MPT reconstruction is not supported. If
the BTS IP address of the GBTS is non-logical, set the BTS IP address to the loopback
interface IP address which is logical and then performed co-MPT reconstruction using
the conversion tool. Otherwise, co-MPT reconstruction is not supported.
4. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if the networking changes during reconstruction
from a GBTS to an eGBTS. The networking may change from IP over E1 to IP over FE,
from IP over FE to IP over E1, from VLAN networking (in this scenario, the base station
carries VLAN information in packets) to non-VLAN networking, or from non-VLAN
networking to VLAN networking. In addition, the VLAN ID may change.
5. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if the configured and actual Ethernet port is
inconsistent. For example, the IP address is configured on an electrical port but the cable
is connected to an optical port in actual use.

6. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if non-64 kbit/s timeslots have been monitored.
7. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if an ARP session has been configured.
8. If the GBTS uses IP over FE/GE transmission (FE port on the GTMU), the GTMUb
conversion board does not support IP over FE/GE after reconstruction. (If separate
transmission was used before reconstruction, intermediate transmission needs to be
adjusted.) Assume that a base station deployed with both UMTS and LTE which use
separate transmission supporting IP over FE needs to be reconstructed into a co-MPT
base station which uses co-transmission supporting port sharing and IP over FE, and the
base station has UMTS and LTE inclusive route relationship and preferentially matches
the route of the non-reference mode (this route complies with the longest matching
principle or has the highest priority under the same length). In this scenario, you need to
configure the VLAN and route of the non-reference mode and reference mode for
transmission device. Otherwise, the OMCH and co-MPT reconstruction fail.
9. Scenarios where IP addresses for GU and GL conflict are not considered for data
verification. If the IP addresses conflict, reconstruction fails.
10. If a BTS using IP over E1 transmission is configured with the monitor timeslot, the
monitor timeslot configuration cannot be automatically converted for the co-MPT base
stations. You need to manually add the configuration of monitor timeslot after the
reconstruction.
11. When reconstructing base stations using DHCP servers, you are advised to reconstruct
base stations configured on the same port of the base station controller at the same batch.
If one base station is not reconstructed together with other base stations, the base station
will obtain incorrect IP configuration data when it goes through the DHCP server-based
deployment procedure after a reset. As a result, the base station fails to start.
12. Co-MPT reconstruction restrictions on co-transmission are as follows:
a. In the scenario where a GU base station uses co-IP transmission, the internal IP
address on the GSM side is on the same network segment as the default local IP
address. As a result, the generated data fails the verification. In addition, the tool for
converting the GBTS data to eGBTS data cannot identify such a scenario, and
therefore the tool used for co-MPT reconstruction from a separate-MPT GU base
station to a co-MPT GU base station does not support this scenario.
b. Scenarios where BBUs are interconnected through two front panels are not
supported. If a GTMU is to be abandoned, BBU interconnection through either one
or two front panels is not supported. If co-transmission through panel
interconnection in one BBU is deployed before co-MPT reconstruction, the
interconnection cables must be reserved. The cables must be connected to ports 0
and 1 on the UMPTe in the same way as the UMPTa or UMPTb. Data can be
converted only if the cables are connected to ports 0 and 1.
c. E1/T1 co-transmission is not supported. Reconstruction from E1/T1 separate
transmission to E1/T1 co-transmission is not supported.
d. If co-transmission is applied before and after reconstruction, scenarios where the
cascaded main control board transfer data to other boards as well as the cascading
board are not supported.
e. Reconstruction from Ethernet trunk separate transmission to Ethernet trunk co-
transmission is not supported.
f. Co-MPT reconstruction is performed in UTRPc-based co-transmission scenarios
when GSM is involved in reconstruction. When a separate-MPT UL base station
uses UTRPc-based co-transmission, only the reference mode provides transmission
ports during reconstruction.
g. In the case of co-transmission through a backplane, the two ports of the board that
provides a co-transmission port are configured with device IP addresses. Therefore,

Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

it is difficult to determine which port is the co-transmission port and co-MPT


reconstruction is not supported in this scenario.
h. Multiple tunnels are configured, and it is difficult to determine the slot number of
the board that provides the transmission port. Therefore, co-MPT reconstruction is
not supported in this scenario.
13. Co-MPT reconstruction restrictions on security are as follows:
− For a separate-MPT multimode base station to be reconstructed, if security objects
are set for both the reference mode and non-reference modes, only security objects
for the reference mode are reserved after co-MPT reconstruction.
− If a separate-MPT multimode base station is to be reconstructed, only the digital
certificate for the reference mode is supported. Security objects of non-reference
modes cannot reference digital certificates. In the GSM configuration data, the
following items are not supported: digital certificates, IPsec, PACKETFILTER,
PINGFILTER, IPGUARD, or DOT1X (802.1x-based authentication).
− Co-MPT reconstruction from a separate-MPT multimode base station is not
supported if the following conditions are met:
− A UTRPc is configured to transmit data for the reference mode.
− IPsec is configured for the non-reference modes but not the reference mode.
− An operator's certificate is used for SSL.
14. Co-MPT reconstruction from a separate-MPT multimode base station is not supported if
both Ethernet and Ethernet trunk are used.
15. Co-MPT reconstruction from a separate-MPT multimode base station is not supported if
LTE is not the reference mode and the two ports of the LMPT are used as optical or
electrical ports.
16. Co-MPT reconstruction from a separate-MPT multimode base station is not supported if
PA of the main control board of a non-reference mode is set to AUTO(Automatic
Detection) because whether the Ethernet port is an optical or electrical port is not clear.
You can query the value of PA using the LST ETHPORT command. In addition, Co-
MPT reconstruction from an LO base station is not supported if PA of the LMPT board
is set to AUTO(Automatic Detection).
17. If the E1/T1 ports on one board will work in two bearing modes, such as IP and ATM
bearing modes after reconstruction, co-MPT reconstruction is not supported.
18. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if conflicts in the VLANMAP MO exist (the
values of Next Hop IP are the same or the subnet of a base station contains that of
another) and the values of VLAN Group No. are different.
19. Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported if boards working in active/standby mode are
configured on multiple separate-MPT multimode base stations.
20. In scenarios where a separate-MPT multimode base station is to be reconstructed, only
one type of route, source route or destination route, must be used for both the reference
and non-reference modes. Otherwise, co-MPT reconstruction is not supported.
21. The transmission port cannot be specified during reconstruction but can be specified
during transmission reconfiguration after reconstruction.
22. After the reconstruction, multiple next hop IP addresses, instead of one next hop IP
address, are used for the BTS maintenance plane, controller plane, and service plane.
Specifically, for the original GBTS, only one next hop IP address is used. If multiple
next hop IP addresses are required after the reconstruction, this configuration is not
supported by the tool. In this case, configure the route data after the reconstruction. The
following describes how to manually configure the route:

Issue 03 (2016-12-09) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 706

Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

− If the next hop IP address of the BTS maintenance plane after the reconstruction is
different from the original next hop IP address, delete the original route to the IP
address of the U2000, and then run the ADD IPRT command to add a new route
and configure the actual next hop IP address.
− If the next hop IP address of the BTS control plane after the reconstruction is
different from the original next hop IP address, configure the route and next hop IP
address in the same way.
Note that the new next hop IP address planned for the BTS maintenance or control plane
must fall in the same network segment as the IP address of the Ethernet port configured
in the BTS parameter DEVIP. If they fall in different network segments, plan the IP
addresses of new BTS ports by running the ADD DEVIP command.
23. If a board is added or replaced due to reconstruction, a UMPT is used as the main control
board after reconstruction and the original main control board uses optical ports, run the
DSP ETHPORT command to query the data rate over the port before replacing the
board. This ensures that the data rate at the local end is the same as that at the peer end.
If the data rates are different, optical port negotiation fails and transmission is
interrupted.

Limitation on Clock
Co-MPT reconstruction is not supported in the following scenarios:
1. The reference clock planned by the customer is not included in the configuration data of
existing base stations.
2. The reference clock planned by the customer supports only frequency synchronization,
but time synchronization is used for the configuration data of existing base stations. In
this case, it is recommended that the planned reference clock be adjusted to correct the
planned data before co-MPT reconstruction.
3. The reference clock planned by the customer does not support TOD clock cascading, but
TOD clock cascading data is included in the configuration data of existing base stations.

Technologies Co., Ltd.
3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

In this case, it is recommended that the reference clock be changed to a TOD clock to
correct the planned data or you run the RMV TOD command to modify the
configuration data of existing base stations.
4. The reference clock planned by the customer does not support synchronous Ethernet
clock cascading, but synchronous Ethernet clock cascading data is included in the
configuration data of existing base stations. In this case, it is recommended that the
reference clock be changed to a synchronous Ethernet clock to correct the planned data
or you run the RMV SYNCETH command to modify the configuration data of existing
base stations.
5. If a GBTS is to be reconstructed to a eGBTS and the BSC has been configured with the
NTP server, the tool does not support the reconstruction when the NTP uses encrypted
authentication. In this case, re-configure the encryption information after the BTS starts
upon the configuration activation.

Limitation on Co-MPT Reconstruction in Independent RAT Upgrade Scenarios


Co-MPT reconstruction when a RAT is upgraded separately is supported from SRAN10.1.
Specifically, each RAT bound to multimode base stations before reconstruction runs different
versions, and the mapping relationships between each mode satisfy the software whitelist
requirements. The multimode base stations can be directly reconstructed as a co-MPT base
station. In the co-MPT base station after reconstruction, each RAT retains the original version,
and the node runs the latest version. Such a co-MPT reconstruction has the following
limitations:
1. The GBTS must run a version no later than that of NodeB and eNodeB, and the mapping
relationships between these three base stations satisfy the software whitelist
requirements.
2. Only the standalone CME supports co-MPT reconstruction when a RAT is upgraded
separately. The online CME does not support such a reconstruction.
3. When the independent RAT upgrade function is supported, the software whitelist
contains the mapping relationships about V/R/C/SPC versions. Therefore, such a co-
MPT reconstruction is supported when RATs differ in the SPC version, instead of the
SPH version.
4. Base station software supports a disguised version. However, the name of the base
station conversion component released at the support website must have a true version. If
the name have a disguised version, unpredictable exceptions may occur during co-MPT
reconstruction when a RAT is upgraded separately.
5. If the reconstruction is performed in batches, the base stations with the same RAT must
have the RAT running the same version. If base stations with the same RAT have the
RAT running different version, they must be classified into different batches for
reconstruction.

13.6 Description about Co-MPT Data Conversion


Background
This tool is used for converting the configuration data for separate-MPT multimode base
stations, BTSs, NodeBs, and eNodeBs to that for co-MPT multimode base stations.
Reconstructing separate-MPT multimode base stations, BTSs, NodeBs, and eNodeBs to co-
MPT multimode base stations requires complex data reconfigurations. This tool is used to
simplify the data reconfigurations.

Requirements for Base Stations to Be Reconstructed


 The GBTSs involved in a reconstruction must belong to one BSC.
 A maximum of 50 base stations can be reconstructed at a time, and therefore do not enter
data for more than 50 base stations in the reconstruction data planning file.

13.6.1 Application Scenarios and Restrictions of the MBSC


Reconstruction Module
By default, an MBSC reconstruction module supports verification of configuration data
before reconstruction. If the verification results show that the configuration data does not
support the reconstruction, related information will be displayed to inform users of modifying
the configuration data. In addition, if the tool does not support the verification, query the
configuration data to determine whether to perform manual verification.

Scenarios Where Tool-Based Verification Is Supported


1. If License Share in BBU Carrier Pool is set to YES(Yes), run the MOD BTS
command to change the setting.
2. If Cell Extension Type is set DualTS_ExtCell, run the MOD GCELL command to
change the setting.
3. If Support BTS Local Switch is set to YES(Yes), run the SET BTSLSW command to
change the setting.
4. If Transmission Mode is set to TER_AND_SAT_TRANS(Terrestrial and Satellite)
or PICO_AND_SAT_TRANS(Pico and Satellite), run the SET BTSTRANS
command to change the setting.
5. If NCH Occupy Block Number is set to a value other than 0, run the SET
GCELLGSMR command to change the setting.
6. If ICB Allowed is set to YES(YES) or NULL(NULL), run the SET
GCELLBASICPARA command to change the setting.
7. If Dynamic Transmission Div Supported is set to DDIVERSITY(DDIVERSITY) or
DPBT(DPBT), run the SET GCELLCHMGBASIC command to change the setting.
8. If EGPRS2-A is set to YES(YES), run the SET GCELLGPRS command to change the
setting.

10. If Support Downlink Dual-Carrier is set to SUPPORT(Support), run the SET
GCELLGPRS command to change the setting.
11. If Move Immediate Assignment Down to BTS is set to YES(Support), run the SET
GCELLPSOTHERPARA command to change the setting.
12. If Move Packet Assignment Down to BTS is set to YES(Support), run the SET
GCELLPSOTHERPARA command to change the setting.

Scenarios Where Manual Verification Is Required


None

13.6.2 Application Scenarios and Restrictions of the GBTS


Reconstruction Module
By default, a GBTS reconstruction module supports verification of configuration data before
reconstruction. If the verification results show that the configuration data does not support the
reconstruction, related information will be displayed to inform users of modifying the
configuration data. In addition, if the tool does not support the verification, query the
configuration data to determine whether to perform manual verification.

Scenarios Where Tool-Based Verification Is Supported


1. Convert the data of activated base station, cells and carriers only.

Scenarios Where Manual Verification Is Required


1. In the Ethernet OAM CC scenario, after the BTS is reconstructed into an eGBTS, run the
ACT CFMCC command to perform corresponding activation and check.
2. Before the reconstruction, Ethernet OAM 802.1ag is configured for the GBTS, and the
MAC-based RMEP is configured for the equipment interconnected to the GBTS: After
the reconstruction, Ethernet ports for interconnection are configured for the UMPT
instead of the GTMU. Therefore, in the given scenario, after the reconstruction, the data
configuration of the equipment interconnected to the GBTS needs to be changed to
ensure that the configured MAC address is the MAC address of the Ethernet port on the
UMPT.
3. After a GBTS is changed to an eGBTS, if the NTP protocol is required for the clock
synchronization, the reconstruction tool will by default use the NTP server used by the
BSC as the NTP server for the eGBTS. Therefore, the route from the NTP server to the
eGBTS must exist. Otherwise, you need to add one. If another NTP server is required by
the eGBTS after reconstruction, a new NTP address must be configured.

13.6.3 Application Scenarios and Restrictions of the SRAN


Reconstruction Module
By default, an SRAN reconstruction module supports verification of configuration data before
reconstruction. If the verification results show that the configuration data does not support the
reconstruction, related information will be displayed to inform users of modifying the
configuration data. In addition, if the tool does not support the verification, query the
configuration data to determine whether to perform manual verification.

3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

Scenarios Where Tool-Based Verification Is Supported


1. CTRLLNK: The scenario where no control link is configured for both main control
boards when inter-BBU separate-MPT is used for a dual-mode base station is not
supported. In addition, a control link can be added by running the ADD CTRLLNK
command.
2. The dual-star topology of RF modules in a BBU will be automatically changed to the
load-sharing networking.
3. If both the primary and secondary modes have the same chain number under
RRUCHAIN, reassign a chain number to the secondary mode, that is, using the
maximum value among available values.
4. If ALDs of both modes have the same device number, reassign a device number to the
secondary mode, that is, using the minimum value among available values.
5. If the SRAN name after the reconstruction is not included in the reconstruction planning
file, the NE name of the primary mode will be used by default. However, the
reconstruction is not supported if the SRAN name is excluded and the NE name is blank.
In this case, the NE name can be configured by running the SET NENAME command.
6. For ALDs of the primary and secondary modes, the vendor code, serial number, and
device name cannot be the same value except the value of null.
7. If two sectors with different modes share the same antenna before the reconstruction,
combine the two sectors into one, using the parameters of the primary mode
preferentially, such as the sector number and sector name.
8. If two baseband devices with different modes share the same baseband processing units
before the reconstruction, combine the two devices into one, using the parameters of the
primary mode preferentially.
9. If DEVIP and ETHTRK are configured for the Ethernet, the configurations of the
primary mode will be used.
10. The OMCH configurations of the UMTS or LTE mode will be used to ensure the OMCH
connectivity in the scenario in GU or GL reconstruction scenarios.
11. For E1 backup, the network segments of the routes for the OMCH cannot overlap with
those of the routes for the user plane and data plane. If a route of the LTE mode can
reach U2000 as well as MME or SGW, users need to split this route into multiple routes.
The network segment of the destination IP address of the route to the U2000 cannot
contain the network segment of the route to the MME or SGW. For details about the
configurations, see Abis Transmission Backup. (You can obtain this document from
GBSS Feature Documentation on Hedex. On the GBSS Feature Documentation web
page, choose Description > Reliability > Abis Transmission Backup from the
navigation tree.). The OMCH configurations will not be combined. The configurations
related to E1 backup in UDPSESSION and GTRANSPARA will be combined.
12. For RRUs serving one GSM cell and two UMTS/LTE sectors, configure the RRU for
one UMTS/LTE sector before the combination.

Scenarios Where Manual Verification Is Required


1. If multiple default routes for the IPRT exist, the default route of the primary mode will
be used. Users need to analyze the impact and solve the issue.
2. The QoS-related configurations of the primary mode will be used after the
reconstruction. As a result, the QoS of the secondary mode will be affected. After the
reconstruction, a warning will be generated. The warning indicates the configurations of
each mode before the reconstruction, and users need to determine whether the QoS-
related configurations (such as DIFPRI and DSCPMAP) need to be modified.

3. The tool cannot automatically convert interconnected sectors through two systems into
one sector in one system.
4. If the maintenance IP of GBTS is the same as 192.168 network segment, need to replan
IP address. Otherwise the maintenance IP of GBTS and default maintenance IP of
UMPT are in the same segment caused co-MPT reconstruction failed.
5. The rule for merging the transmission configuration data (the PACKETFILTER MO) is
as follows: all the PACKETFILTER MOs for baseline RAT and non-baseline RAT and
set the filter switch in the EPGROUP MO to disable. If users need packet filtering after
co-MPT reconstruction, the users manually configure the filter switch.
6. For a separate-MPT multimode base station, the co-MPT base station after
reconstruction applies IP over FE transmission using the same port if multiple modes are
configured with resource groups, the transmission port numbers of different modes are
the same, and the base station applies IP over FE. In this scenario, adjust the bandwidth
configuration of resource groups base on service types.
7. If a GBTS cell is configured with multiple RF modules, other modes must share the RF
modules in the same sector. Otherwise, the tool does not support the conversion.

13.7 Co-MPT Reconstruction Scenarios


Note:
1. The UMPT in co-MPT reconstruction scenarios described in this document includes
UMPTa, UMPTb, and UMPTe. The types of the UMPT are consistent before and after
reconstruction. For example, if the main control board of a separate-MPT base station is
UMPTb and the mode of this base station is used as the reference mode before
reconstruction, the main control board of the co-MPT base station after reconstruction
must also be UMPTb.

1. If the base station before reconstruction uses E1/T1 transmission (including E1/T1 over IP
or E1/T1 over ATM), the UMPTe cannot serve as the main control board for the co-MPT
base station after reconstruction because the UMPTe does not support E1/T1 transmission.
2. If the UMPTe serves as the main control board for the co-MPT base station after
reconstruction, the main control boards (including WMPT and LMPT) before
reconstruction are abandoned, and the main control board (UMPTa/b) before
reconstruction is retained and serves as the signaling extension board for the UMPTe.

2. From SRAN11.1 onwards, hybrid-MPT base stations can be reconstructed. That is, the
co-MPT base station and separate-MPT base station can be reconstructed into a new co-
MPT base station. This type of reconstruction has the following constraints:
− The separate-MPT base station and co-MPT base station before reconstruction
cannot have the same NE types. For example, in the case of G[G*U]->[G*U], G
indicates the separate-MPT base station and G*U the co-MPT base station before
reconstruction.
− The reference mode must be the mode deployed on the co-MPT base station instead
of the separate-MPT base station.

3900 Series Multimode Base Station
Mode Transition Guide(For NB) 13 Appendix for Co-MPT Reconstruction

− The following reconstruction scenarios are not supported: Two or more co-MPT
base stations are involved before reconstruction; The co-MPT base station to be
reconstructed is an eGBTS.
3. In SRAN11.0 and earlier versions, the GTMUc supports only the legacy scenarios and
does not support SingleOM co-MPT or evolution mode. Therefore, the GTMUc serves
as a GTMUa during the reconstruction. In SRAN11.1 and later versions, the GTMUc
supports SingleOM and evolution modes. Therefore, the GTMUc serves as a GTMUb
during the reconstruction.
