2 Mode Transition
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.
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.
Solid lines with arrows indicate the dependent objects and dotted lines with arrows point to
further information of specific objects.
Figure 1.2 Constraints of the subsystems and other items on each other
NB-IoT is introduced in SRAN12.0. The mode transition planning involves the following
aspects:
RF planning
1. Power configuration
2. RF module specifications
For details, see CIoT12.1 eNodeB Product Specification.
Antenna and feeder planning: the same as that for LTE FDD
MPT planning
Mode Single- Transitio Dual- Transitio Triple- Transition
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.
Configure an RF module supporting LTE TDD mode if the LTE TDD mode is added.
For details about the specifications of RF modules, see "RRU Specification" in LTE
TDD Product Specification.
For the RRU3961, the RF 800 MHz/900 MHz multiband license must be purchased if the
RRU3961 works on both the 800 MHz and 900 MHz frequency bands.
For the RRU3961 and single-band module, the RF multimode license corresponding to each
mode must be purchased if SDR is used on one frequency band.

- 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 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.)
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

Scenario Impact on Services of the Original Mode
Check whether the original antenna supports the new frequency band.
In this step, obtain the antenna model so that you can find the datasheet of the original
antenna.
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.
The RRU is directly connected to the RET through an RET port. Only AISG cables
delivered by Huawei can be used and special attention shall be paid to cable and length
constraints.

configured for the RXBRANCH of both RX channels. The following table describes the
parameters that must be set to configure RX channel attenuation.
Service impact
Adding an antenna or reusing Technically, services of the original mode are not
the original multiband antenna affected. However, the related operations are performed
around antennas, you are advised to evaluate whether
the original RF module shall be blocked based on the
actual site conditions to ensure personal safety.
Replacing the original antenna Services of the original mode are interrupted during
with a multiband antenna antenna replacement.
Note that parts highlighted with blue are new components in the preceding figures.
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
mode (frequency band). The insertion loss of an inter-band combiner is 0.X dB. For details,
see the relevant combiner datasheet.
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
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 GTAC or TMO teams. A list of RET or
TMA models that have passed the 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.
When a combiner is used, pay attention to the design of the RET and TMA, and combiner's
capability of supporting DC power and OOK signals.
Determine connections between components in the antenna and feeder subsystem.

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.
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.
LTE FDD and LTE TDD co-MPT is supported in SRAN8.1 and later versions. UMPTs
support LTE FDD and LTE TDD co-MPT but LMPTs do not.
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)
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.

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
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

- UMPT multimode license
The following table provides UMPT multimode licenses that need to be purchased.
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.
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
Reconfigurations.
Similarly, for mode transition from FDD only, TDD only, or FDD and TDD concurrency to
FDD and NB-IoT, TDD and NB-IoT, or FDD, TDD, and NB-IoT, MOs such as Application

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.

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.
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

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.
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.

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.
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.
This sheet needs to be filled out for con-MPT reconstruction scenarios where two BBUs are combined
into one.
Ensure that the main control board deployed with the reference mode is retained after site
consolidation.
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.

Service impact
Technically, services of the original mode are not affected. However, the related operations

the actual site conditions to ensure personal safety.
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

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

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

Configuration Guide for SRAN12.0.
Service impact
Services of the original mode are interrupted during the period from transmission cable
adjustment to new site deployment and activation of the original mode's data.
A new mode is added to the co-MPT base station and co-transmission is used for the new and
original modes, as shown in the following figure
Original mode:
Data of the original mode does not need any modification.
Node-related data needs to the changed as follows:
- A port IP address DEVIP must be configured for the new mode. Note that this parameter is
required only when the port IP address is required for the new mode. If no new port IP address
is required, the new mode and original mode share the same port IP address.
- The service link, signaling link, and route of the new mode must be configured.
New mode:
For new mode GU:
- CPBEARER referenced by NODE must be configured on the signaling plane of the new
mode.
- IPPATH or EPGROUP referenced by NODE must be configured on the user plane of the
new mode.
For new mode L:
- CPBEARER or EPGROUP referenced by NODE must be configured on the signaling
plane of the new mode.
- IPPATH or EPGROUP referenced by NODE must be configured on the user plane of the
new mode.
For details, see section "Configuring Transport Data" in 3900 Series Base Station Initial
Configuration Guide for SRAN12.0.
Service impact
Services of the original mode are not affected. The new mode can provide services once
the configuration is completed.

Power 1. RFU power supply:
supply If the original cabinet is used, check whether the DCDU
of the original cabinet can provide sufficient DC power
supply. If more DC power supply is required, use circuit
breakers with larger capacity or add an input to the
circuit breaker.
If a new cabinet is used, check whether the AC power
system provides DC power to the DCDU of the new
cabinet (pay attention to the cable and circuit breaker).
2. Check whether the AC power system can provide
sufficient power supply. If more power supply is
required, add a PSU or a power supply cabinet. When
adding a new power cabinet, pay attention to the
footprint for installing the cabinet.
Note:
For details about how to calculate the required cables,
cable diameter, and circuit breaker, see "Cable diameter
or circuit breaker calculation."

RRU is installed on a pole or wall, pay attention to the
installation position and bearing capacity. If the RRU is
installed on the L-type stand, pay attention to the
installation position of the L-type stand.
Power 1. RRU power supply:

RRU power cable based on the RRU type and distance
between the RRU and BBU.
DC power supply for the RRU: Check whether a new
DCDU is required and whether the new DCDU's circuit
breaker meets the related requirements. In addition, if the
DC power supply cable is routed from the cabinet, check
the cabinet cabling capability.
2. AC power supply: Check whether the AC power
system can provide sufficient power supply. If more
power supply is required, add a PSU or a power supply

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).

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.

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.
The service KPIs need to be collected based on site requirements. The following table lists the
common KPIs to be checked.
8 Preparing Data
This section describes the procedure for preparing data during mode transition.
The CME provides different configuration methods for mode transition scenarios. The
following figure shows the process of selecting the configuration method.
The mode transition procedure is complex if great differences occur between base station configurations,
and transmission and hardware reconstruction is required at the same time.
Step 2 For GBTSs, BBU interconnection links cannot be added using a summary data file. Instead,
you can run MML commands on the MBSC to add the interconnect links before data
synchronization. (The MML command is ADD BTSCTRLLNK.)
----End
Step 1 On the U2000, click in the upper left corner. Then, on the Application Center panel
of the U2000, double-click Topo View.
Step 2 Right-click the MBSC to which the GBTS belongs and choose Synchronize NE
Configuration Data.
Step 3 Synchronize the UMTS data to the U2000, right-click the NodeB and choose Synchronize
NE Configuration Data.
Step 4 Synchronize the LTE data to the U2000, right-click the eNodeB and choose Synchronize NE
Configuration Data
.
Step 5 Double-click CME on the Application Center tab page.
Step 6 On the CME, choose Area Management > Current Area > Synchronize NEs to
synchronize data to the U2000.
Step 7 In the displayed Synchronize NE(s) dialog box, select the MBSC and base station to be
synchronized.
Step 8 In the created planned data area, choose Area Management > Planned Area > Create
Planned Area. In the displayed Create Planned Area dialog box, add the MBSC and base
station, and click OK.
----End
You are advised to save configuration data on each base station side by referring to Saving
Configuration Data on the Base Station Side Before Mode Transition after synchronization for data
configuration rollback. For details about how to perform data configuration rollback, see Rolling Back
Base Station Configurations.

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
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.

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

Step 6 To generate configuration scripts in the wizard, select Export scripts and perform the
following operations:
1. Select the mode of generating scripts.
− Scripts on the controller side:
To save scripts of logical base stations in the same file, select Batch.
To save scripts of logical base stations in separate files by base station, select One
by one.
If you have reconfigured cell frequencies, the CME generates scripts only using Batch. In the
reconfiguration scenario, the CME generates neighboring cell adjustment scripts, which cannot be
separated by base station.
− Scripts of base stations:
To save the incremental scripts in separate files by RRU chain/ring, separate the
scripts by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch RRU chain/ring. The CME automatically
generates common incremental scripts and incremental RRU chain/ring scripts. For
base stations whose RRU chain/ring fails to be separated, the CME generates scripts
that are not separated.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring applies only to base stations in SRAN10.1 or later.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch applies only to base stations (using RMU) in
SRAN12.0 or later.
If the common incremental scripts of base stations depend on the incremental RRU chain/ring scripts
or if two incremental RRU chain/ring scripts are associated, scripts cannot be separated by RRU
chain/ring.
For concepts of RRU chain/ring trunk and branch, and scenarios supported by this function, see
Supported Scenarios.
2. Specify a save path for scripts.
3. 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

Step 6 Optional: To generate configuration scripts in the wizard, select Export scripts and perform
the following operations:
1. Select the mode of generating scripts.
− Scripts on the controller side:
가 To save scripts of logical base stations in the same file, select Batch.
나 To save scripts of logical base stations in separate files by base station, select
One by one.
− Scripts of base stations:
To save the incremental scripts in separate files by RRU chain/ring, separate the
scripts by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch RRU chain/ring. The CME automatically
generates common incremental scripts and incremental RRU chain/ring scripts. For
base stations whose RRU chain/ring fails to be separated, the CME generates scripts
that are not separated.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring applies only to base stations in SRAN10.1 or later.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch applies only to base stations (using RMU) in
SRAN12.0 or later.
If the common incremental scripts of base stations depend on the incremental RRU chain/ring scripts
or if two incremental RRU chain/ring scripts are associated, scripts cannot be separated by RRU
chain/ring.
For concepts of RRU chain/ring trunk and branch, and scenarios supported by this function, see
Supported Scenarios.
2. Specify a save path for scripts.
3. 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.
가 Select Yes.
나 Click Set Password. In the displayed dialog box, enter the encryption
password as required.
다 Click OK.
The exported encrypted script files are in .ecf format.
Step 7 Click Next, set the parameters for GSM service.
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.

8.3.2.3.2 Co-MPT
When the original mode is UMTS in co-MPT scenarios, you need to use the summary data
file for batch configuration (SRAN application) on the CME to configure radio 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 data of a co-MPT base station for batch
configuration is as follows:
Procedure
Export base station data to the summary data file.
Step 1 On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose SRAN Application > MBTS Application
> Export Data > Export Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode) or
CME > SRAN Application > MBTS Application > Export Data > Export Base Station
Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to
configure data in batches, as shown in Figure 1.1.
Step 2 Select a reconfiguration scenario, RAT of NEs, versions of base stations and base station
controllers, and list of base stations. Then, click Next.
If you select the GSM base station controller and base station data, the implementation
of the function is the same as that of importing and exporting Abis interface data of a
single-mode base station. For detailed operations, see Importing and Exporting Abis
Interface Data for Batch Reconfiguration.
If you select the UMTS base station controller and base station data, the implementation
of the function is the same as that of importing and exporting Iub interface data of a
single-mode base station. For detailed operations, see Exporting Iub Data for Batch
Reconfiguration and Importing Iub Data for Batch Reconfiguration.
If two or more RATs are selected, base station data and controller data cannot be
reconfigured together.
Step 3 Select Custom MOC, set objects you want to export, and specify a save path for the exported
file.
(Applies only to CME R17 and later versions.)To export a summary data file with the Operation
column, select Add the Operation column.
To export data based on the objects contained in a prepared summary data file, perform the
following steps.
(Applies only to CME R17C10 and later versions.)If you need to use a summary data file with
scenarios differentiated, customize the summary data file. For detailed operations, see Customizing
the Summary Data File with Scenarios Differentiated (Example).
1. Select Bulk configuration template.
2. In Bulk configuration data file, select the prepared file and export configuration data from the
CME based on the MOs in this file.
3. In Export path, specify a save path for the file that contains the exported data.
Step 4 Click Next. The CME verifies the configuration data to be exported.
If the verification fails, the CME does not export data.
Step 5 After the export is complete, click Finish.
----End
Open the local summary data file and reconfigure data in the summary data file based on
planned data.If parameters to be reconfigured for each base station are the same and
numbers of parameter records are the same, it is convenient to reconfigure them in the
MOC-integration view. For detailed operations, see Editing a Summary Data File for
Batch Configuration (MOC-Integration View).
Import the modified summary data file.
Step 1 On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose SRAN Application > MBTS Application
> Import Data > Import Base Station Bulk Configuration Data (CME client mode) or
CME > SRAN Application > MBTS Application > Import Data > Import Base Station
Bulk Configuration Data (U2000 client mode). A dialog box is displayed for you to import
data for batch configuration.
Step 2 Specify the RAT of NEs to be imported, determine whether to import base station controller
data (base station data must be selected), and click Next.
If two or more RATs are selected, base station data and controller data cannot be reconfigured
together.

The following table lists the corresponding CME template and reference for each scenario.
8.3.2.4.1 Separate-MPT
When the new mode is UMTS in separate-MPT scenarios, deploy a new site using the
summary data file on the CME.
The configuration procedure is as follows:
Configure the primary mode of a separate-MPT base station.
Procedure
Step 1 On the menu bar of the planned data area, choose CME > SRAN Application > MBTS
Application > MBTS RAT Priority Settings (U2000 client mode) or SRAN Application >
MBTS Application > MBTS RAT Priority Settings (CME client mode). A dialog box is
displayed for you to set priorities of the RATs that comprise a multimode base station.
If the current primary and secondary RATs are inconsistent with the planned ones,
perform Step2 through Step3.
If the current primary and secondary RATs are consistent with the planned ones, perform
Step3.
Step 2 Change the primary and secondary RATs according to the separate-MPT base station type.
The selected RAT is the primary RAT, and the other is the secondary RAT.
LTE_TDD indicates only the LTE TDD base stations that are supported since SRAN11.0, and
no LTE FDD or NB-IoT cells can be added for such base stations.
Step 3 Click OK. A dialog box is displayed, indicating that the settings are successful.
Step 4 Click OK.
----End
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 as required.
− 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, NodeB, NodeB 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:
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.
3. After the configuration is complete, click OK. The main window for customizing a
summary data file is displayed, as shown in Figure 1.1.

customized.
NOTE
You can drag a sheet to adjust its sequence.
Step 2 Start the wizard for customizing a summary data file, and customize basic and transport
parameters in a summary data file. Figure 2.1 shows the operation example.
The parameter specifications defined in the basic base station creation wizard must be lower than those
provided by NEs. If the planned data exceeds the defined parameter specifications, you can manually
customize data after completing operations by following the wizard.
Step 3 (Optional and required when the summary data file customized on the wizard does not contain
all parameters to be configured) Manually customize parameters to be configured in the
summary data file.
If an alarm is generated indicating that the branch parameter does not exist in the verification result, you
need to determine whether to customize the parameter to the summary data file based on the planned
data. The alarm does not affect the subsequent operation of saving data.
Step 5 When the verification is successful, click to save the summary data file (this button applies
only to a user-defined summary data file), or click to save the file to a local PC. If you
perform copy and paste operations when saving the file, the file will fail to be saved.
----End
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 as required.
− 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, NodeB, NodeB 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:
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

If multiple NE configuration parameters are in the same summary parameter group and
share the same name, they are combined into a column in the generated summary data
file.
Editable records are highlighted in white; Records that are not editable are highlighted in
; Records that can be deleted but cannot be modified are highlighted in .
Step 2 Start the wizard for customizing a summary data file, and customize basic, transport, and
security data in the file.
The parameter specifications defined in the basic base station creation wizard must be lower than those
provided by NEs. If the planned data exceeds the defined parameter specifications, you can manually
customize data after completing operations by following the wizard.
1. Use the customization wizard to customize basic and transport data. Figure 2.1 shows an
operation example.
added MOs and planned parameter values (excluding default values), and
information that needs to be set manually.
Tip2 Configure data based on the planned data in each step on the wizard.
2. Use the security wizard to customize security-related data. Figure 2.2 shows an operation
example.
Tip 1 When multi-level CA certificates in the certificate chain provided by you are
stored separately, configure multiple CA records.
When you provide a certificate chain file, configure a certificate chain record.
Tip 2 Configure security gateway information records based on collected IKE and
IPsec algorithms and combination status of these algorithms provided by you.
For example, two IKE algorithms, two IPsec algorithms, and only three IKE and
IPsec algorithm combination methods are provided. You need to configure only
three security gateway information records.
Tip 3 Sequence Number of IPsec tunnel of IPsec tunnels configured for the same
port cannot be duplicate.
Values of Sequence number of SeGW corresponding to this tunnel
corresponding to Sequence number of SeGW configured in the preceding
step.
Tip 4 After the operations in the wizard are complete, a customization report is
generated. The report displays user-specified information, automatically added
MOs and planned parameter values (excluding default values), and information
that needs to be set manually.
Step 3 (Optional and required when the summary data file customized on the wizard does not contain
all parameters to be configured) Manually customize parameters to be configured in the
summary data file.
One configuration object can be customized only on one tab page or on one tab page and
the Common Data tab page.
Parameter names in the same parameter group cannot be duplicate.
Parameter group names and parameter names cannot be empty.
Step 4 Click to verify validity of the edited summary data file. Then, modify the file based on the
verification result.
If the verification fails, you can double-click the error message. Then, the CME automatically
locates the error. You have to rectify the error until the verification succeeds.
If an alarm is generated indicating that the branch parameter does not exist in the verification result, you
need to determine whether to customize the parameter to the summary data file based on the planned
data. The alarm does not affect the subsequent operation of saving data.
Step 5 When the verification is successful, click to save the summary data file (this button applies
only to a user-defined summary data file), or click to save the file to a local PC. If you
perform copy and paste operations when saving the file, the file will fail to be saved.
----End
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.
1 Specify the sheet, parameter group, and parameter name that correspond
to the IP addresses and subnet masks to be calculated.
2 Specify locations in the summary data file for the calculated IP addresses
and subnet masks.
To use the calculated IP addresses and subnet masks to overwrite
existing data in the summary data file, perform the following
operations:
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.
Step 7 Configure automatic deployment data about the base stations to be created.
Click the Auto Deployment sheet and set the value of each parameter based on the planned
data.
Step 8 Close the modified summary data file.

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.
NodeB Yes Yes The CME contains the existing data and the
NodeB data in the file and reallocates NodeB
IDs.
No Yes The CME adds the NodeB data in the file.
Yes No Data on the CME remains unchanged.
Cell Yes Yes The CME overwrites the existing data using the
cell data in the file.
No Yes The CME adds the cell data in the file. The
principles for selecting a cell template are as
follows:
In the data planning file, if the
TEMPLATENAME parameter of the cell is
empty, the CME creates the cell by using the
cell template selected in the dialog box.
In the data planning file, if you specify a cell
template name in the TEMPLATENAME
parameter, the CME creates the cell by using
the cell template specified in the file. In this
case, the cell template selected in the dialog
box does not take effect.
NOTE
If data about the URA, LAC, SAC, RAC, and SPG
referenced by the cell does not exist on the CME,
the CME automatically adds the data.
You need to manually delete the URA, LAC, SAC,
RAC, and SPG that are no longer referenced by any
cell from the general configuration window.

One by one.
− Scripts of base stations:
To save the incremental scripts in separate files by RRU chain/ring, separate the
scripts by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch RRU chain/ring. The CME automatically
generates common incremental scripts and incremental RRU chain/ring scripts. For
base stations whose RRU chain/ring fails to be separated, the CME generates scripts
that are not separated.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring applies only to base stations in SRAN10.1 or later.
Script separation by RRU chain/ring trunk or branch applies only to base stations (using RMU) in
SRAN12.0 or later.
If the common incremental scripts of base stations depend on the incremental RRU chain/ring scripts
or if two incremental RRU chain/ring scripts are associated, scripts cannot be separated by RRU
chain/ring.
For concepts of RRU chain/ring trunk and branch, and scenarios supported by this function, see
Supported Scenarios.
2. Specify a save path for scripts.
3. 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.
가 Select Yes.
나 Click Set Password. In the displayed dialog box, enter the encryption
password as required.
다 Click OK.
The exported encrypted script files are in .ecf format.
Step 7 Click Next, set the parameters for GSM service.
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.

The following table lists the corresponding CME template and reference for each scenario.
8.3.3.4.1 Separate-MPT
To add LTE as a new mode using a summary template for new site deployment is similar to
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.
3. After the configuration is complete, click OK. The main window for customizing a
summary data file is displayed, as shown in Figure 1.1.
1 Tab page, which displays a set of NE configuration parameters. This area can be
customized.
NOTE
You can drag a sheet to adjust its sequence.
Step 2 Start the wizard for customizing a summary data file, and customize basic and transport
parameters in a summary data file.
The parameter specifications defined in the basic base station creation wizard must be lower than those
provided by NEs. If the planned data exceeds the defined parameter specifications, you can manually
customize data after completing operations by following the wizard.
1. Use the customization wizard to customize basic and transport data. Figure 2.1 shows an
operation example.
2. Optional: Use the customization wizard to customize RAN sharing data. Figure 2.2
shows an operation example.
Parameters with * in the wizard are mandatory. Optional parameters are configured based on site
requirements.
After the operations in the wizard are complete, a customization report is generated. The report displays
user-specified information, automatically added MOs and planned parameter values (excluding default
values), and information that needs to be set manually.
Step 3 (Optional and required when the summary data file customized on the wizard does not contain
all parameters to be configured) Manually customize parameters to be configured in the
summary data file.
If an alarm is generated indicating that the branch parameter does not exist in the verification result, you
need to determine whether to customize the parameter to the summary data file based on the planned
data. The alarm does not affect the subsequent operation of saving data.
Step 5 When the verification is successful, click to save the summary data file (this button applies
only to a user-defined summary data file), or click to save the file to a local PC. If you
perform copy and paste operations when saving the file, the file will fail to be saved.
----End
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

: indicates an added record. Such tags will not be displayed next time after you
save the summary data file.
NOTE
When the values of NE MOC and NE Attribute are empty in a record, the parameter is a
new one in the summary data file and there is no mapping between the parameter and NE
configuration objects.
This parameter is referenced by other configuration parameters. If this parameter is not
referenced, the parameter value does not take effect.
If multiple NE configuration parameters are in the same summary parameter group and
share the same name, they are combined into a column in the generated summary data
file.
Editable records are highlighted in white; Records that are not editable are highlighted in
; Records that can be deleted but cannot be modified are highlighted in .
Step 2 Start the wizard for customizing a summary data file, and customize basic, transport, and
security data in the file.
The parameter specifications defined in the basic base station creation wizard must be lower than those
provided by NEs. If the planned data exceeds the defined parameter specifications, you can manually
customize data after completing operations by following the wizard.
1. Use the customization wizard to customize basic and transport data. Figure 2.1 shows an
operation example.
2. Use the security wizard to customize security-related data. Figure 2.2 shows an operation
example.
Tip 1 When multi-level CA certificates in the certificate chain provided by you are
stored separately, configure multiple CA records.
When you provide a certificate chain file, configure a certificate chain record.
Tip 2 Configure security gateway information records based on collected IKE and
IPsec algorithms and combination status of these algorithms provided by you.
For example, two IKE algorithms, two IPsec algorithms, and only three IKE and
IPsec algorithm combination methods are provided. You need to configure only
three security gateway information records.
Tip 3 Sequence Number of IPsec tunnel of IPsec tunnels configured for the same
port cannot be duplicate.
Values of Sequence number of SeGW corresponding to this tunnel
corresponding to Sequence number of SeGW configured in the preceding
step.
Tip 4 After the operations in the wizard are complete, a customization report is
generated. The report displays user-specified information, automatically added
MOs and planned parameter values (excluding default values), and information
that needs to be set manually.
3. Optional: Use the customization wizard to customize RAN sharing data. Figure 2.3
shows an operation example.
Parameters with * in the wizard are mandatory. Optional parameters are configured based on site
requirements.
After the operations in the wizard are complete, a customization report is generated. The report displays
user-specified information, automatically added MOs and planned parameter values (excluding default
values), and information that needs to be set manually.
Step 3 (Optional and required when the summary data file customized on the wizard does not contain
all parameters to be configured) Manually customize parameters to be configured in the
summary data file.
If an alarm is generated indicating that the branch parameter does not exist in the verification result, you
need to determine whether to customize the parameter to the summary data file based on the planned
data. The alarm does not affect the subsequent operation of saving data.
Step 5 When the verification is successful, click to save the summary data file (this button applies
only to a user-defined summary data file), or click to save the file to a local PC. If you
perform copy and paste operations when saving the file, the file will fail to be saved.
----End
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.
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.
1 Specify the sheet, parameter group, and parameter name that correspond
to the IP addresses and subnet masks to be calculated.
2 Specify locations in the summary data file for the calculated IP addresses
and subnet masks.
To use the calculated IP addresses and subnet masks to overwrite
existing data in the summary data file, perform the following
operations:
1. Select Select Filling Column.
2. Specify the names of the parameter group and parameter mapped
to the data to be overwritten.
To add a row next to the parameter specified in step 1 and show the
calculated IP addresses and subnet masks in the added row, perform
the following operations:
1. Select Add Filling Column.
2. Enter the names of the parameter group and parameter to be
displayed in the row.
3 Click Add and add a conversion rule. You can repeat steps 1 and 2 to add
multiple conversion rules.
4 This function provides the following calculation methods:
Non-32-bit subnet mask: After you enter IP addresses and subnet
masks, a logic AND operation is performed on them. The obtained
network codes replace the IP addresses, and the subnet masks are
replaced with 255.255.255.255.
32-bit subnet mask: The IP addresses remain the same. The entered
subnet masks are replaced with 255.255.255.255.
5 Click OK. Excel starts the calculation based on the preset information.
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.
Step 8 Configure automatic deployment data about the base stations to be created.
Click the Auto Deployment sheet and set the value of each parameter based on the planned
data.
Step 9 Close the modified summary data file.

Step 3 Select the eNodeBs you want to import and click Next.
Step 4 Select cells and neighbor relationships you want to import into the CME, and select an import
mode. Then, click Next.
After you select an import mode, the CME uses the primary key (such as cell ID) to determine
whether the objects exist on the CME and in the file, and then determines how to process the
data. Table 1.1 describes the import modes and import results.
Append Yes Yes The CME overwrites the existing data with
the data in the file.
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

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.
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).
Operation Procedure
You can combine the repeated operations in the base station deployment scenario and data
migration scenario using the Base Station Reconstruction Express function on the CME to
improve reconstruction efficiency.
This document describes the base station deployment and RF migration operations that are
performed simultaneously using the Base Station Reconstruction Express function. For
separate operations, see 3900 Series Base Station Initial Configuration Guide and Base
Station RF Migration Guide respectively.
− Automatic function creation for a certain mode is not allowed on a co-MPT base
station. If the target base station lacks the function for the corresponding mode,
create the function manually.
− The following types of base stations are supported.
가 GSM site types
Scenario Source Base Station Target Base Station
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.
Mode MO to be Inherited
나 For other MOs whose primary key parameters are defined in the summary data
file, their non-primary key parameters are inherited from the live network.
To reuse the existing equipment in the source base station during co-MPT reconstruction,
perform the following steps:
a. On the NEP-SD main window, click or choose Project > New Project to create
a project. In the displayed dialog box, set Scene to Single-Site Expansion, Swap,
and Reconstruction or Batch-Site Expansion, Swap, and Reconstruction. Click
OK.
b. Import existing configuration data and inventory data of the base station.
c. After the data is imported, right-click the base station name and choose
Reconstruction to modify the configurations.
d. After the modification, choose Data > Export BTS Configuration on the NEP-SD
main menu bar to export a base station design file.
As described in 8.5.4 Filling In Data for New Base Station Deployment and RF
Migration, BTS Design File in the Base Station Transport Data sheet will refer to
this base station design file, and BTS Design Cell ID in the cell-related sheets will
refer to the cell IDs planned in this base station design file. When importing data
described in 8.5.5 Importing Data, select Use BTS design file and select the
directory in which the BTS design file is saved.
The customized summary data file is used for subsequent data exportation and filling. If the summary
data file is not customized, it can be automatically generated by the CME through selecting the MO after
a customized project is created.
From the main menu bar, choose Advanced > Customize Summary Data File. For
detailed customization operations, press F1 on the CME to view the Online Help.
− The following CME template is used to deploy a new base station using the
summary data file.
The CME provides three default templates according to scenarios in the following
table.
The sample summary data file includes the operators. For the customized summary
data file, see Summary Data File for RF Migration.
2. Create a customized project and define the new base station deployment and RF
migration as a reconstruction project.
On the menu bar of the CME, choose Advanced > Base Station Reconstruction Express
> Customize Reconstruction Project. The Customize Reconstruction Project dialog box
is displayed.
Tip 1: Basic information to be configured varies with the project type. The basic information
to be configured may include scenarios, RATs, and NE versions. For Base Station RF
Migration under SRAN, you need to select conversion tools for base station controller (BSC)
and base transceiver station (BTS) modules when RF data is to be migrated from a GBTS to
an eGBTS or co-MPT base station whose RATs include GSM.
Name of the conversion tool for BSC modules:
SRANconvert_BSCModule_V***R***C**SPC***.zip To obtain the tool, visit the
http://support.huawei.com/carrier/ website, choose Support > Product Support > Wireless
Network > Wireless Network Common > SingleRAN > SingleRAN_MBSC > BSC6900
or choose Support > Product Support > Wireless Network > Wireless Network Common
> SingleRAN > SingleRAN_MBSC > BSC6910. Then, search for the name.
Name of the conversion tool for BTS modules:
SRANconvert_GBTS&SRANModule_V***R***C**SPC***.zip To obtain the tool,
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
chain. is selected, the CME exports the RF migration summary data file including 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The tool for converting the LLD data file to a summary data file can be used to improve efficiency.
Only List and Common sheets are supported.
For details about the tool for converting the LLD data, see Training Document_iManager U2000-
CME V200R017_Interconnection Between LLD Data File and Summary 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). 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.
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.
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.
In the UMTS Cell sheet, migrate the cell on the source base station to the target
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
ID: 22751) and then bind the cell to the RFU board that has been migrated.
Appendix
Macro functions of Excel can help you set parameters. The following table lists the available
macro functions in this scenario.
If equipment data is to be inherited using the NEP-SD tool, select Use BTS design file and select the
directory of the base station design file, as shown in the following figure. Ensure that the summary data
file refers to the base station design file. The following figure shows an example.
After the reconstruction project data is imported successfully, the target base station is created
and the data on the live network is successfully migrated. The CME generates the script files
on the base station controller side. You need to export the script files on the base station side.
3. Select the base stations whose auto deployment data is to be exported, and click Next.
4. Select a save path for the exported file and a method for processing data, and click Next.
5. View data in the base station deployment list, and click Next. The CME verifies data
correctness and exports the data.
If the parameter values displayed on the GUI are different from the data plan, you need to change the
parameter values based on the data plan. Otherwise, the deployment may fail.
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.
If the import fails, click a link to view the error report. After modifying data based on the report,
click Retry to return to the step where the error occurs, and perform the operation again.
In the BSC node redundancy scenario, if the primary and secondary homing base stations are
available in the planned data area, only the primary homing base station can be bound. If the
secondary homing base station is bound, an error message is displayed. If only the primary homing
base station or secondary homing base station is available in the planned data area, either can be
bound.

10 Adjusting Hardware
Adjusting hardware may affect services. For details, see section 3.1.2 "General Impacts" in
3900 Series Multimode Base Station V100R010C10 Mode Transition Guide.
Adjusting BBUs
For details about BBU installation, see the installation guide of the corresponding base
station. For details about board installation, see the hardware maintenance guides of the
corresponding base station.
In the co-MPT reconstruction involving mode expansion scenario for 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.
Adjusting RF Modules
For details about how to install RRUs, see the related RRU installation guide.
Adjusting Feeders
Connect feeders to the newly added MRRUs.
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.
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.

are executed before the error occurs can be executed successfully.
Best effort: If any errors occur when the scripts are being activated, the
CME skips the error commands and proceeds with the activation.
Commands other than the error commands can be executed
successfully.
For XML scripts, the CME performs operations based on the
predefined mode, regardless of your selection. Processing method: If
an error occurs during the activation, the CME immediately stops the
activation and restores configuration data to the status before the
activation.
After scripts are exported, the CME automatically starts the script
executor to activate the scripts.
NOTE
Before performing this operation, ensure that you have the network device
permission Modify Physical NE Data through CME. Otherwise, the scripts
cannot be exported.
For security purposes, the CME displays the NE cipher key as *****. If you have changed the cipher
key in the planned data area, the CME displays either of the following information based on the change.
You can check the details in the drop-down list.
If Yes is displayed in the Is Fallback column, you have changed the NE cipher key from the default
value to another value and the NE cipher key in the fallback script is replaced with the default value.
If No is displayed in the Is Fallback column, you have changed the NE cipher key from another
value to the default value and the NE cipher key in the positive script is replaced with the default
value.

activation, the CME immediately stops the activation and restores
configuration data to the data before the activation.
나 If a project containing MML scripts is to be rolled back, the CME uses either
of the following modes:
□ Break on failure
Choose Activate Fallback Project > Break on Failure. The CME stops
the activation immediately if an error occurs during the activation.
□ Best effort
Choose Activate Fallback Project > Best Effort. The CME continues
with the activation by running a command next to the error command if
an error occurs during activation.
5. Perform the following steps to view the activation task:
Procedure
Step 1 Double-click the project information in the right pane of the Summary window. The

the display sequence of the columns.
Step 2 Right-click a task and choose Report > Report Type from the shortcut menu to view the task
execution results.
If the activation fails because the activated NE is disconnected from the U2000, execution results are
unavailable.
In execution result reports, preactivation reports are displayed by NE, and activation reports are
displayed by task.
If scripts in the activation task are MML scripts, the following report types are available:
All: contains all information about successful and failed activation.
Succeeded: contains only information about successful activation.
Failed: contains only information about failed activation.
If scripts in the activation task are XML scripts, the following report types are available:
Recent: checks details about the script execution results.
History: displays a dialog box for selecting historical operations. You can select historical
operations on the script and click OK to check details about the selected operations.
For base station controllers, if the activation report contains failure information, you can double-click
the error record in the error information list in the lower part of the window. The CME then
automatically locates the configuration object where the error in the script occurs, helping you view and
correct the information.
If you cannot double-click the error to locate the configuration object where the script is incorrect, you
can check the error information (Messages column) in the information list and then check the XML
script file based on the error information to find the operations that cause this error and correct it.
After the scripts are activated, the following execution results returned from NEs are available:
If is displayed in front of the NE node in the navigation tree, the activated scripts contain error
information. In this case, you can select Browse errors to check only the error information.
If is displayed in front of the NE node in the navigation tree, the script activation is successful
but some information needs to be observed.

shown in Figure 9.2. Copy the MBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB folders from the USB File
folder to the USB flash drive.
If you have not selected Support xMPT with SRAN7.0 in Path Settings, the MBTS
directory is generated. If you have selected Support xMPT with SRAN7.0 in Path Settings,
the generated directory has the following file folders: MBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB. Folders
NodeB and eNodeB are used for an upgrade of a main control board from SRAN7.0 or earlier
to SRAN10.0.
After a file is copied from a computer to a USB flash drive, the file may change due to
faults on hardware or the Window OS, but this seldom occurs. In this case, you can copy
the file from another computer, to another USB flash drive, or restart the OS and copy the
file again.
After the folders are copied to the USB flash drive, eject or safely remove the USB flash
drive from the Windows operating system. You can only remove the USB flash drive from
the PC after either of the preceding operations. If the USB flash drive is forcibly ejected,
the files in the USB flash drive may be damaged. As a result, software and data
configuration files cannot be loaded by using the USB flash drive.
When transferring files for a making USB flash drive, do not copy the .xml files from a
remote desktop to a local PC. Otherwise, base station deployment will fail. You are
advised to compress the required files into a .rar or .zip file for file transfer.
You can use file comparison software, such as the BCCompare, to compare whether the file copied to
the USB flash drive is consistent with that on the computer.

----End
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.
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.
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.
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.
− Check whether the modes deployed on the target base station are displayed, as
shown in the following figure.
− Right-click the target base station and choose Device Maintenance to check
whether the mode information about each board is correct, as shown in the
following figures. Note that the UMPT serves multiple modes, the WBBP serves
the UMTS mode, the LBBP serves the LTE mode, and the
UBRI/UTRP/FAN/UCIU/UEIU/UPEU/PSU/TCU serves multiple modes.
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.
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.

Restore the maintenance mode for the base station when it is operating properly after the
commissioning.
You may restore the maintenance mode by NE or by mode, which must be consistent with the
granularity when you set the maintenance mode. Use the same way to set the maintenance
mode to Normal.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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).
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;
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,
− 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.
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.
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.
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.
− 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.
