Feature Functionality overview


Horizon II BTS
Provides new features including a new Site controller and associated cabinets with enhanced capabilities. New site controller has been developed to perform all digital functions in one integrated card. New transceiver capabilities of dual mode operation Supporting Dual Band GSM900/1800 within the same cell in different cabinets

Expansion of Horizonmacro and Horizonmacro II


Horizonmacro II could be used as controller or expansion cabinets to both Horizonmacro I or M-Cell6 cabinets.

Horizon II Transceiver
Double density radio has been developed to Horizon II program, one physical device can generate 2 different frequencies in. CTU2 allows for backward compatibility in a Horizon I controller/expansion cabinet, with the capability of operating in single/double mode under a restriction of DDM/Base band hopping.

HII-UMTS
The Idea
Build on existing Horizon II proposals to provide a solution to 2G end of life Add low cost, low capacity, entry level solution for UMTS license holders currently operating in 2/2.5G

Opportunity
To create a field upgradeable combined 2g and 3g base station To create credible migration story for GSM based operators To increase GSM revenues (Through defence and new customer acquisition Penetration of UMTS market where none exists in EMEA To improve the value proposition for GSM/UMTS in all markets All GSM based operators with UMTS expectations

Target Market

Window of Opportunity
Statement of intent to market within the next 3 months Commitment to UMTS capability in HII cabinet by HII gate 7 (End Feb 02) Timings of full solution delivery vs. HII and full UMTS availability (including handsets) must provide credible migration story. (To be defined) if this goes ahead.

Description of Idea
Low cost, Entry level UMTS carrier in Horizon II base station
Sold either with UMTS carrier installed or as field upgradeable GSM to combined GSM/UMTS. Primarily targeted at areas of low UMTS traffic, I.e. rural/semi-rural areas needing low capacity

Distinct competitive advantage vs. Nokia Ultrasite and Ericsson equivalent

EMEA Revenue Assumption


Lack of UMTS offering will result in a decline from c.$4Bn over 5yrs to $2.2Bn with the Yr 5 revenues restricted to GSM c. $500M (2002 2007). Delivering HIIU will provide operators with a rationale for continuing their relationship with Motorola, leading to:
Protection of c.$4Bn GSM revenue (Incremental c.$1.8Bn over current expectations) Foothold in UMTS market where none exists now creating an opportunity for c.$112.5M over 5yrs (2004 2009) (Assuming 25% of existing GSM Base stations become HII and each of these takes 1 UMTS radio, value c.$7.5k, across 30 operators, with assumed base of 2k BTSs, assumes no incremental Node B revenues)

Assuming announcement by end of Q.2/02.

Horizon II Transceiver Operation-CTU 2


Three modes of operation; one high power GSM carrier(SDM), two standard power GSM carrier (DDM) or one EDGE carrier. Horizonmacro-CTU2 provides the double density mode-DDM for GSM/GPRS in Horizon I and Horizon II, with future Support for single density EDGE. CTU-2 generates frequencies in both GSM900 and DCS 1800 band New CTU2 provides backward compatibility with Horizonmacro I cabinet, under some restriction when CTU2 is running in Double Density Mode with Horizonmacro I controller cabinet.

Horizon II Site Controller- H2SC

H2SC will act as the main processor card within the Horizon II. H2SC perform all of the same functionality as the MCUF with additional enhancements Provides site interfacing to the network through integrated NIU onto the H2SC card. H2SC (master or redundant) card offers 6 E1/T1 termination routed via site I/O panel. The current MCUF offer 2 integrated FMUX devices and one external device to allow 3 cabinet expansion, H2SC has integrated three FMUX on board. The current H/W cant match the required operation So, the current removable flash memory has been upgraded from 20Mb to 32Mb. H2SC is able to interface with the expansion cabinets of horizon I/M-cell. H2SC is only running with GSR 6.1 release, prior this release cabinet would be OOS.

H2SC is not backward compatible with MCUF

Horizon II expansion Card-XMUX


XMUX allow the Horizon II cabinet to be used as an expansion by multiplexing the data to and from the controlling cabinet. XMUX card shall slot into the H2SC slot in the digital card cage in the expansion cabinet. XMUX will be able of interfacing with the controlling cabinet, whether it is a Horizon II/ Horizon I /M-Cell controlling cabinet All data are routed to I/O panel via backplane then to master cabinet controller through fiber optic cables.

Customer Benefits in Hot Spot Area

HII solution for North coast events


Using HII BTS, the customer will gain: Maximum site capacity 24 carrier and two sector with maximum16 carrier BTS Cost is less 15 to 40%. Erlang offered Using two cabinets(CTU2-DDM) GSM 900, site can offer 158.5 Erlang with Air Interface 1% blocking per site. Using two cabinets(CTU2-DDM) DCS1800 serving in the same coverage area can also offers the same Erlang, In presence of BTS low power transmission, antenna down tilting, good RF optimizing of the neighbor sites and future AMR feature customer will not need think with the other competitor half rate BTS. Less Foot Print, useful in compact mobile shelter

Limitations

The existing capability limits of a BSS shall not be altered. For example, the maximum number of carriers within a BSS shall remain at 384 (or 512 if the Enhance BSC Capacity feature). Horizonmacro2 cabinet will only support a single frequency band. It shall not be possible to support a mixture of frequency bands within a single Horizonmacro2 cabinet. The existing capability limits of a BTS site shall not be altered. For example, the maximum number of carriers shall remain at 24 carriers, the maximum number of cells shall remain at 6 cells.

Dependencies
BSC Memory
The Horizon II feature introduces a number of new code objects required for support of the CTU2 and H2SC. The current amount of GPROC2 memory is not sufficient for that, work around to increase the BSC memory resource

MCU/MCUF Memory
As shown before for the new CTU2 enhancement feature that required new code objects and no enough memory space in MCU/MCUF available, PCMCIA should be exist in its location in order to store the CTU2 code objects.

AMR
FW delivery of support for AMR on the CTU2 will not be available upon the initial release of HII feature.
