multi-mode and multi-band radio access.

Based on this innovative SDR platform, ZTE promotes a series of base stations to satisfy
different scenario requirements, including Indoor Macro, Outdoor Macro, Distributed,
Outdoor Micro, and Mini BTS.

These SDR-based serial base stations aim to design a unified network which can bring
seamless experience to operators. In GSM, UMTS or mixed mode, it enables operators
to save CAPEX and OPEX significantly because they only need to deploy a Uni-Radio
Access Network, compared to the independent GSM and UMTS networks.

ZXSDR BS8900A is one outdoor macro BTS, providing an all in one solution for power
supply, battery, and transmission integration. It offers GSM/UMTS dual-mode networking
capability and provides a future-proof solution for smooth evolution to Enhanced EDGE,
HSPA+ and LTE. BS8900As appearance is shown in Figure 1-1. In the following

900MHz/1800MHz, or 2*6 TRXs with TOC output power 2*60W on 900MHz/1800MHz. In
case of GMSK modulation, the TOC output power reaches up to 2*80W, which falls back
to 2*50W if 8PSK is adopted.

In UMTS mode, it maximum supports 2*20MHz with TOC output power 2*80W on 900M
or 2*60W on 2100M.

The operating support layer provides the functions of OSS, while OAM, DBS, BRS,
BRACS, and SCS serve different BTS modes.

l OAM (Operating and Maintenance) is to provide the configuration, alarm and


performance measurement function.

l DBS (Database Sub-system) is the database system.

l BRS (Bearer Sub-system) is for protocol stack processing.

l BRACS (Bearer Access Control Sub-system) is to control the access to bear layer.

l SCS (System Control Sub-system) is to control the power supplying and


active/standby switching.

OSS (Operation Support Sub-system) is the support layer in this entire framework, which
