These base stations can be classified into single- and multi-mode base stations according to
provided services.
A single-mode base station (GBTS, NodeB, or eNodeB) can provide services for only one
mode (GSM, UMTS, or LTE), respectively.
A multi-mode base station (MBTS) can provide services of multiple modes. MBTSs are
classified into dual-mode and triple-mode base stations according to provided services.
A dual-mode base station, providing services of two modes, can work in GSM and
UMTS (GU), GSM and LTE (GL), or UMTS and LTE (UL) mode.
A triple-mode base station, providing services of three modes, can work in GSM, UMTS
and LTE (GUL) mode.
eNodeBs are designed based on a distributed architecture. Each eNodeB consists of two basic
types of component: baseband unit BBU3900 and Radio Frequency (RF) unit RRU or RFU.
Logical structure of an eNodeB is as following
Maximum throughput per eNodeB: uplink and downlink data rate at the MAC layer: 1500
Mbit/s (packet size: 550bytes)


The BBU3900 implements OM management, signaling processing, and radio resource
management of the entire eNodeB system and provides ports for data communication
between the eNodeB and the MME/S-GW. The BBU3900 performs the following functions:
Provides ports for data communication between the eNodeB and the MME/S-GW.
Provides CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) ports for communication between the
BBU3900 and the RRUs.
Provides USB ports, which facilitate eNodeB upgrade when a USB disk is inserted into
the LMPT/UMPT during software installation and data configuration.
Provides the OM channel for connection to the M2000.
Processes uplink and downlink data.
Manages the entire eNodeB system in terms of OM and signaling processing.
Provides ports for the system clock.
Provides ports for alarm monitoring.
The BBU3900 features a compact case structure that only requires a 19-inch-wide and 2 U-
high space. It can be installed on an indoor wall, on the staircase, in the storeroom, or in an
outdoor cabinet of the existing network.
The BBU3900 is configured with the following basic hardware units:
LTE Main Processing and Transmission unit (LMPT) or Universal Main Processing and
Transmission Unit (UMPT)
LTE BaseBand Processing unit (LBBP)
Fan module, that is, FAN
Power module, that is, Universal Power and Environment interface Unit (UPEU)
LMPT/UMPT
The LTE Main Processing and Transmission Unit (LMPT) or the Universal Main Processing and
Transmission Unit (UMPT) is the main control and transmission unit of the BBU3900. It
manages the entire eNodeB in terms of OM and signaling processing and provides clock
signals for the BBU3900.
The UMPT is classified into two types: UMPTa1 and UMPTa2 to support UMTS or LTE
separately.
LBBP
The LTE Baseband Processing Unit (LBBP) is the baseband processing unit of the BBU3900. It
processes baseband signals and CPRI signals.
FAN
The FAN module controls the fan speed and monitors the temperature of the module. It
dissipates heat for boards and modules of the BBU3900.
UPEU
The Universal Power and Environment interface Unit (UPEU) is the power module of the
BBU3900. It converts +24 V DC or -48 V DC power into the power required for boards and
modules of the BBU3900 and provides ports for transmission of external monitoring signals
and eight dry contact signals.
UTRP
Universal transmission processing unit expands transmission capabilities.
Control Subsystem : The functions of the control subsystem are implemented by the
LMPT/UMPT. This subsystem performs OM functions, processes signaling, and provides
the system clock. It manages the entire eNodeB
The OM functions include configuration management, fault management,
performance management, security management, and deployment.
The signaling involves Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) signaling on the
Uu interface and Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) signaling on the S1
and X2 interfaces.
The system clock can be one of the following types: Global Positioning System
(GPS), IEEE1588 V2, synchronous Ethernet, or Clock over IP
Transport Subsystem: The functions of the transport subsystem are implemented by the
LMPT/UMPT and UTRP
Provides ports for communication between the eNodeB and the EPC
Provides the OM channel between the eNodeB and the Local Maintenance
Terminal (LMT) or M2000
Provides ports for communication between the eNodeB and 2G/3G base stations
so that the E1/T1 transmission resources can be shared by the eNodeB and the
2G/3G base stations
System Reliability
Cold redundancy of main control boards In a BBU3900, two LMPT ( or two UMPT)
boards are configured and work in active/standby mode. If the active LMPT (or
UMPT) board experiences a major fault, an active/standby switchover is
automatically performed. An active/standby switchover can also be performed if a
user runs the switchover command.
Operation and maintenance (O&M) channel backup The M2000 detects channel
connectivity by employing the handshake mechanism at the application layer. If
detecting that the active channel is disconnected, the M2000 instructs the
eNodeB through the standby channel to perform a channel switchover. The
eNodeB automatically switches from the route for the active channel to the route
for the standby channel.
Route backup Route backup enhances transmission reliability by using a pair of
primary and secondary routes to the same destination. The routes are prioritized:
A higher priority is set for the primary route, and a lower priority for the
secondary route.

E1/T1 Line Clock Synchronization
With an E1/T1 line clock, a base station obtains frequency synchronization signals from
the physical layer of an E1/T1 link to achieve clock synchronization. An E1/T1 line clock
can be used when a base station uses the E1/T1 transmission scheme and clock signals
are available on the E1/T1 link.
IP Clock (Clock over IP) Synchronization
Clock over IP is a Huawei proprietary frequency synchronization technology, in which
frequency synchronization packets are transmitted over IP. With clock over IP, only
frequency synchronization is supported. When a base station uses this synchronization
mode, the synchronization tolerance can be 0.05 ppm. The ppm stands for parts per
million. A clock over IP can be used when a base station works in IP over FE mode and an
IP clock server is configured in the network.
IP Clock (IEEE1588 V2) Synchronization
IEEE1588 V2 defines the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which targets synchronization of
clocks in the Ethernet, with the precision to microseconds. With an IEEE1588 V2 clock,
both frequency synchronization and time synchronization are supported. An IEEE1588 V2
clock can be used when a base station works in IP over FE mode and an IP clock server is
configured in the network.
Synchronous Ethernet Clock Synchronization
With a synchronous Ethernet clock, a base station traces the upstream clock by
recovering clock signals from the serial data bit streams received at the physical layer to
achieve synchronization. In synchronous Ethernet, only frequency synchronization is
supported, with the synchronization tolerance 0.05 ppm. A synchronous Ethernet
clock can be used when a base station works in IP over FE mode and the transport
network supports the synchronous Ethernet clock.

signals to the SBT from the connector on top of the cabinet. The SBT
demodulates the OOK signals to RS485 signals and then supplies the RS485
signals and part of the DC power to the RCU.
Direct connection through multi-core cables. In this mode, the distance between the RRU
and the RCU( Remote Control Unit ) is shorter than 20 m.
transfers that command to the RRU. The RRU modulates the command to RS485
signals, and then transfers the signals and the DC power to the RCU through
multi-core cables.

In the case, RCU of Huawei and the SBT of Kathrein are configured.

The RCU (Remote Control Unit) is the motor drive of the phase shifter inside the electrical
antenna. It receives and runs the control commands from the base station and drives the
stepper motor. The stepper motor drives the phase shifter inside the antenna device, and
the phase shifter adjusts the antenna tilt. Interface RS485 functions as the control
interface of the RCU.

The SBT (Smart Bias-Tee) provides DC power supply and control commands through the
feeder for the RCU. The SBT is installed on the RET antenna side. The SBT provides the
following functions:
The SBT converts the control commands that are modulated with OOK by the
feeder into the RS485 signals and transfers the signals to the RCU.
The SBT converts the RS485 signals from the RCU into OOK signals and transfers
the signals to the feeder.
The SBT divides and sends the RF signals and control signals from the feeder to
the antenna and the RCU.
The SBT transmits the direct current from the feeder to the RCU.

Topology Advantage Disadvantage Remarks
Star Transmission reliability is
high. When an RRU or an
optical fiber is faulty, only
the related sector is
affected.
Installation and
maintenance are easy.
RRUs cannot be cascaded when
the star topology is used.
RRUs can be connected to any
CPRI ports on the LBBPc or
LBBPd when the star topology
is used.
Chain The chain topology
reduces the cost for
optical fibers.
The number of cascading levels
and cascading distances are
restricted.
Faults in an upper-level RRU
may affect lower-level RRUs.
RRU3232s cannot be
cascaded.
A maximum of four RRU3251s
can be cascaded.
RRUs to be cascaded must
have the same CPRI data rate.
Load-
sharing
Transmission reliability
improves.
Wider transmission
bandwidth can be
achieved with two optical
fibers.
Two optical fibers must be
connected to one RRU.
The inter-board load-sharing
topology requires two LBBPc or
LBBPd boards.
RRUs cannot be cascaded
when the load-sharing topology
is used.
If the LBBPc is used, a 20 MHz
8T8R cell is supported only
when the load-sharing
topology is used.
Star topology
Advantage: Each eNodeB is connected directly to the MME through the transport network.
Therefore, this simple topology features easy engineering, maintenance, and capacity
expansion; Each eNodeB exchanges data with the MME directly. Signals travel through only
a few nodes, and therefore network reliability is high
Disadvantage: Compared with the other two topologies, the star topology requires more
transmission resources
Chain topology & Tree topology
Advantage: The costs of transmission equipment, engineering, and transport line lease are
relatively low
Disadvantage: Signals travel through many nodes, and therefore network reliability is low.
Each lower-level eNodeB occupies some transmission bandwidth of its upper-level eNodeB.
Reliability of the upper-level eNodeB affects operation of the lower-level eNodeB.
System Reliability
Route backup
Route backup enhances transmission reliability by using a pair of primary and
secondary routes to the same destination. The routes are prioritized: A higher priority
is set for the primary route, and a lower priority for the secondary route.
Operation and maintenance (O&M) channel backup
The M2000 detects channel connectivity by employing the handshake mechanism at
the application layer. If detecting that the active channel is disconnected, the M2000
instructs the eNodeB through the standby channel to perform a channel switchover.
The eNodeB automatically switches from the route for the active channel to the
route for the standby channel.

Common transmission with IP (Back Plane)
In this figure, A, B, and C are the three Site Units of the MBTS connected through backplane.

The MBTS can achieve route backup by using common transmission with IP, which enables
backup between traffic channels.
When the MBTS supports route backup, each SiteUnit has two transmission channels, that is,
the main channel and the backup channel.
Main channel: When each SiteUnit connects to the transport network by using an
independent physical transmission port, this independent transmission link is the main
channel for each SiteUnit.
Backup channel: When the main control boards of two SiteUnits are interconnected
by using FE/GE ports, each SiteUnit's independent transmission link serves as a
backup channel for the other SiteUnit. FE stands for fast Ethernet and GE stands for
gigabit Ethernet.

Under normal circumstances, the GBTS and NodeB use their own independent transmission
links (main channels) to transmit data. No impact exists between the GBTS and NodeB in
terms of transmission. If the main channel of the NodeB is faulty, the backup channel will be
used and the NodeB's data is transferred to the GTMU board over the FE interconnection
cable. Moreover, the transmission link of the GBTS (the backup channel) will be used to
ensure that high-priority maintenance and service data will not be affected. After the main
channel of the NodeB is restored, the system automatically switches back to the main
channel to transmit data.

The UMTS traffic is transmitted on one path whereas the LTE traffic is transmitted on
different paths

Both UMTS traffic and LTE traffic are transmitted on different paths
