Features of the NodeB


Advanced Platform-Based Architecture
The NodeB that uses the Huawei IP switching-based platform supports the
GSM/UMTS dual-mode application, HSPA+, and smooth evolution to the LTE
system.
The distributed NodeB, cabinet macro NodeB, and compact mini NodeB share
the baseband and RF modules. The three types of basic modules (BBU, RRU,
and RF module) can form different NodeB products that apply to different
scenarios. This reduces cost of equipment and maintenance.
The NodeB supports the dual-star GE IP switching technology, thus enabling
more powerful internal data exchange and satisfying the requirements of
increasing HSPA+ and LTE data volume in the future.
The BBU3900 provides eight slots, in which the boards or modules are
swappable, and supports smooth capacity expansion and evolution.
The RF module integrates the duplexer and the Transceiver Unit (TRU), thus
enhancing integration of RF parts and meeting future requirements for a
compact, high-efficiency, and low-cost NodeB.
A minimized NodeB cabinet is easy to transport and install, and the stack
installation mode of NodeB cabinets lowers the requirement for footprints.

Features of the NodeB

High Integration and Large Capacity


The BBU3900 contains highly integrated chips and features large capacity. A
single BBU3900 supports 24 cells, with 1,536 UL CEs and 1,536 DL CEs. It also
supports HSDPA and HSUPA services.
A single RRU, WRFU, or MRFU supports the 4-carrier configuration. When the
capacity of the NodeB is expanded from 1 x 1 to 1 x 4 or from 3 x 1 to 3 x 4, no
extra RRU, WRFU, or MRFU is required.
High Performance
The NodeB features high receiver sensitivity. The 2-way receiver sensitivity is
better than -129.3 dBm, in the absence of the Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA).
The WRFU/MRFU supports the 80 W output power, and the RRU3804 supports
the 60 W output power. The efficiency of power amplification is boosted to 40%.
The NodeB supports the open-loop TX diversity and closed-loop TX diversity to
enhance downlink coverage and capacity.

Features of the NodeB


ATM/IP Dual-Stack Protocol
ATM
The User-Network Interface (UNI) mode can be used when transmission resources are inadequate and traffic is low.
The NodeB supports the Inverse Multiplexing on ATM (IMA) mode when there are rich transmission resources. This mode
features high reliability, high-speed transmission, and low transmission delay.
The NodeB supports the fractional ATM mode.
IP
The IP transport, based on IPs, supports the transmission of various data services on low-rate links. In this mode, the IP
transmission resources are fully utilized and operators' investment is drastically reduced.
Native IP transport is supported without requirements for additional hardware. Compared with the PWE3 technology,
native IP transport enjoys higher transmission efficiency and lower investment because the PWE3 external device is not
required.
IP over E1 is supported to fully utilize the E1 resources of the existing network and to provide a complete solution of IP
transport.
The fractional Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) technology is supported.
The ATM and IP dual stack is supported to protect operators' initial investment in ATM transport.
The compression and multiplexing technologies, such as the multiplexing of PPP header compression, PPPMUX, and IP
Header Compression (IPHC), are supported to help achieve high transmission bandwidth efficiency over E1 ports. With
the solution of IPHC + PPP compression + PPPMUX, the E1 transmission rate of the 12.2 kbit/s voice service rises by up
to 37%.
The FP MUX is supported to reduce the number of Medium Access Control (MAC) headers by multiplexing packets and
to raise the transmission efficiency over FE ports. With this technology, the FE transmission rate of the 12.2 kbit/s voice
service rises by up to 40%.
Hybrid transport is supported, which enables different transmission paths to be allocated for services with different QoS
requirements. For example, hybrid transport enables real-time services to travel on electrical ports, such as E1/T1 ports,
and non-real-time services to travel on Ethernet ports.

Features of the NodeB


Flexible Clock Synchronization Modes
The NodeB supports the following clock synchronization modes to fulfill different clock networking requirements:
Synchronization with the upper-level clock extracted from the Iub interface
Synchronization with the clock obtained from the GPS
Synchronization with the external clock such as a 2 MHz clock
Synchronization with the IP clock
Without additional hardware, the IP clock is supported through software upgrade, thus providing IP transport with cost-effective clock
solutions.
Synchronization with the internal clock
The internal stratum-3 clock ensures that the NodeB keeps working properly for at least 90 days when losing the external clock.
HSDPA
HSDPA and R99/R4 services can be supported by the same carrier.
The downlink data rate of a single cell can peak at 14.4 Mbit/s.
A single cell supports 15 High Speed Physical Downlink Shared Channel (HS-PDSCH) codes and dynamic code resource allocation.
The NodeB supports 12 categories of UE at various rates.
A single cell can support 64 HSDPA UEs.
The NodeB supports dynamic power allocation.
The QPSK and 16QAM modulation modes which raise spectral efficiency are supported.
HSUPA
The HSUPA and R99/R4 services are supported by the same carrier.
The E-DCH TTI of 10 ms and 2 ms are supported.
The uplink data rate of a single cell can peak at 5.76 Mbit/s.
A single cell can support 60 HSUPA UEs.
The NodeB supports Received Total Wideband Power (RTWP) fast measurement in a period of 2 ms to effectively enhance the
reliability of UL loads.

Features of the Node B


MBMS
Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service
The NodeB supports the setup, reconfiguration, and deletion of the MBMS notification Indicator Channel (MICH), and handling of the related signaling
configuration.
Each cell supports 16 Secondary Common Control Physical Channels (SCCPCHs).
Each SCCPCH supports four Forward Access Channels (FACHs).
Each cell supports 63 MBMS channels.
Access of High-Velocity UEs
The NodeB allows UEs to move in a cell at the velocity of up to 400 km/h. The UEs can enjoy services in the high-speed vehicles such as express trains or
maglev trains.
Enhanced Antenna Technology
The RET antenna is supported to optimize network coverage, reduce interference, and expand system capacity.
The remote batch OM, batch software upgrade, and batch adjustment of RET antenna downtilts are supported.
The automatic scanning of the RET antenna is supported.
The Antenna Interface Standard Group (AISG) 1.1 and 2.0 standard interfaces are supported.
The cascading of RET antennas is supported, and the tilt of the 2G RET antenna can be controlled through the 3G site.
Same Band Antenna Sharing
To implement the same band antenna sharing with low insertion loss, the Same-band Antenna Sharing Unit (SASU) and Same-band Antenna Sharing Adapter
(SASA) are introduced to reduce cost of network deployment.
The SASU applies to two scenarios: the antenna system shared by 2G and 3G systems and the antenna system shared by two 3G systems. The SASU, which
enables two different network systems at the same band to share one antenna system, is an important part of the same band antenna sharing solution. The
SASU can greatly reduce the cost and time of the 3G network construction.
The SASU supports 900 MHz and 2,100 MHz frequency bands.
The SASA is another important part of the same band antenna sharing solution. Although it brings an insertion loss of 0.8 dB in the downlink, it can integrate
transmit carriers of two antennas into one antenna, without compromising GSM network performance.
Operation and Maintenance
The NodeB provides two OM platforms: Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) and centralized management center (M2000).
The NodeB supports local maintenance, remote maintenance, and reverse maintenance.
The NodeB supports the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) and the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). When data is not configured or the NodeB is faulty,
the NodeB automatically sets up an OM channel to enhance system reliability and to perform remote troubleshooting.
The NodeB supports the configuration baseline, which simplifies the configuration rollback process and enhances reliability of configuration rollback.
The NodeB provides the intelligent out-of-service function. Before the NodeB is out of service, the UE is handed over to another 2G or 3G cell when the NodeB
gradually reduces the cell pilot power. Such a handover prevents service disruption.
The NodeB provides the RRU topology scanning function, which enables automatic monitoring of the RRU topology in real time to help reduce manual
intervention.
The NodeB provides the complete system self-check function, and thus local commissioning is not required.

M2000 LMT

The NodeB supports two OM platforms: LMT and M2000.


The features of the NodeB OM modes are as follows:
The NodeB supports the following OM modes:
Local maintenance: The NodeB is maintained on the LMT through the local Ethernet port of the NodeB.
Remote maintenance: The NodeB is maintained through the IP route provided by the RNC. The maintenance is performed on the LMT
in an RNC equipment room or on the M2000 client in the centralized maintenance center.
Reverse maintenance: Another NodeB under the same RNS is maintained on the LMT through the local Ethernet port of a NodeB and
the IP route provided by the RNC.

ODU

Installation Mode
Different installation modes are available for an ODU, depending on the type of antenna configuration.
There are two methods of mounting the ODU and the antenna: direct mounting and separate mounting.
The direct mounting method is normally adopted when a small-diameter and single-polarized antenna is
used. In this situation, if one ODU is configured for one antenna, the ODU is directly mounted at the back of
the antenna. If two ODUs are configured for one antenna, an RF signal combiner/splitter (hereinafter referred
to as a hybrid coupler) must be mounted to connect the ODUs to the antenna. Figure 1 shows the direct
mounting method.
The separate mounting method is adopted when a double-polarized antenna or big-diameter and singlepolarized antenna is used. Figure 2 shows the separate method. In this situation, a hybrid coupler can be
mounted. That is, two ODUs share one feed boom.

The ODUs are classified into the ODU with the
waveguide interface and the ODU with the
coaxial interface according to the type of the
antenna interface of the ODU. The antenna
interfaces of the 7 - 38 GHz ODUs are
waveguide interfaces, and the antenna
interfaces of the 6 GHz SPA ODUs are coaxial
interfaces.
