5 Reference Clocks of the BTS3900/BTS3900A

The BTS3900/BTS3900A supports three types of reference clocks: line clock, BITS clock, andfree-run clock.

Line ClockThe BBU3900 directly extracts clock signals from the E1/T1 interface. Then, the BBU exportsthe precise 2 MHz and 8 kHz clocks after frequency dividing, phase locking, and phase adjusting.The 2 MHz and 8 kHz clocks are used for frame synchronization and bit synchronization in theBTS3900/BTS3900A.

BITS ClockThe BBU3900 supports the BITS clock mode by providing a port for the 2.048 MHz BITS clock.

Free-Run ClockWhen the external reference clocks are unavailable, the oven controlled crystal oscillator(OCXO) on the GTMU of the BBU3900 provides the 13 MHz clock to ensure the normaloperation of the BTS.

6 Signal Flow of the BTS3900/BTS3900A

The signal flow of the BTS3900/BTS3900A consists of the traffic signal flow and the signalingflow of the BTS. The BTS3900/BTS3900A signal flow is classified into the DL traffic signalflow, UL traffic signal flow, and signaling flow.

DL Traffic Signal Flow

The DL traffic signal flow is transmitted from the BSC to the MS through the BTS3900/BTS3900A. In the BTS3900/BTS3900A, the BBU and DRFUs work together to process the DLtraffic signals. Figure 6-1 shows the DL traffic signal flow of the BTS3900/BTS3900A.

The DL traffic signal flow is as follows:

1. The BSC sends E1 signals to the BBU through E1 or optical cables.

2. After receiving the E1 signals, the BBU processes the E1 signals as follows:

(1) Extracts clock signals from the E1 signals

(2) Configures the BTS system based on the data configuration on the OML

(3) Encapsulates the E1 data in the format of the CPRI frame, and then transmits the datato the DRFU through the CPRI signal cable

3. After receiving the signals, the DRFU processes the signals as follows:

(1) Decapsulates the high-speed CPRI frames to obtain the baseband signals(2) Transmits the baseband signals to the relevant operation units for encapsulation and

interleaving(3) Converts the digital signals into the analog signals and modulates the analog signals

into RF signals(4) Combines or divides the RF signals based on its own configuration(5) Transmits the combined or divided signals to the antenna subsystem

UL Traffic Signal FlowOpposite to the DL traffic signal flow, the UL traffic signal flow is transmitted from the MS tothe BSC through the BTS3900/BTS3900A. In the BTS3900/BTS3900A, the BBU and DRFUswork together to process the UL traffic signals. Figure 6-2 shows the UL traffic signal flow.

The UL traffic signal flow is as follows:

1. The antenna receives the signals sent from the MS. If the TMA is configured, the receivedsignals are amplified by the TMA and then transmitted to the DRFU through the feeder.

2. After receiving the UL signals, the DRFU processes the signals as follows:

(1) Divides the UL signals received from the antenna, Rx1 in, or Rx2 in(2) Converts the divided analog signals into the digital signals to obtain the baseband

signals(3) Transmits the baseband signals to the relevant operation units for decryption and de-

2. The BBU encapsulates the signaling data in the format of the CPRI frame, and thentransmits the signaling data to the DRFU through the CPRI signal cable.

3. The DRFU decapsulates the CPRI signals into the baseband signals, transmits the basebandsignals to the relevant operation units for processing.

4. The BBU encapsulates the data of its own status in the format of the CPRI frame, and thentransmits the data to the DRFU through the CPRI signal cable.

5. The BBU decapsulates the received CPRI signals to obtain the baseband signals.6. The BBU obtains the status of the BTS by analyzing the baseband signals. Then, the BBU

transmits the information on the BTS status to the BSC through the Abis interface.

7 Topologies of the BTS

The topologies of the BTS are classified into star, chain, tree, and ring topologies. The BBU andDRFUs support multiple network topologies such as star, chain, and ring topologies. In practice,these topologies can be combined. Optimum utilization of the topologies can improve the qualityof service and save the investment on the transmission equipment.

8 Configuration of the BTS3900/BTS3900A

About This Chapter

This describes the configuration principles and typical configurations of the BTS3900/BTS3900A.

8.1 Configuration Principles of the BTS3900/BTS3900AA single BTS3900/BTS3900A cabinet provides up to 12 carriers with the maximum cellconfiguration of S4/4/4, and supports the dual-band application. In the BTS3900/BTS3900A,the antenna subsystem, DRFUs, and BBU need to be configured.

8.2 RF Signal Cable Connections of the DRFUOne end of the RF jumper is connected to the RF port on the DRFU and the other end is connectedto the feeder. You can determine the appropriate RF ports based on the actual configurationmodes.

8.3 Topology of DRFUs Connected by CPRI CablesThe DRFUs support various network topologies: star, chain, and ring.

8.4 Typical Configuration of the BTS3900/BTS3900AThis lists the number of components required for the cell configuration of S1/1/1, S2/2/2, S4/4/4,S6/6/6, S1/1/1 + S3/3/3, S2/2/2 + S2/2/2, and S4/4/4 + S4/4/4.

8-1

8.1 Configuration Principles of the BTS3900/BTS3900AA single BTS3900/BTS3900A cabinet provides up to 12 carriers with the maximum cellconfiguration of S4/4/4, and supports the dual-band application. In the BTS3900/BTS3900A,the antenna subsystem, DRFUs, and BBU need to be configured.

Basic Configuration Principlesl Smooth upgrade of configuration. If multiple types of hardware configurations meet the

requirements for configuring the parameters in network planning, the configuration modethat implements the smooth upgrade is preferred.

l The BTS3900/BTS3900A solution is recommended in S4/4/4 cell configuration or lowerconfigurations. When multiple antennas are permitted, the BTS3900/BTS3900A solutioncan be applied in S6/6/6 and S4/4/4+S4/4/4 dual-band cell configurations.

l Wide coverage. The DRFU supports wide coverage. If required, the DRFU can work inPBT, transmit diversity, or 4-way receive diversity mode in configurations lower than S2.

l Antenna configuration principles: the dual-polarized antenna is used in S4/4/4 or lowerconfigurations; the dual-band dual-polarized antenna or two dual-polarized antennas ondifferent frequency bands are used in S4/4/4 + S4/4/4 cell configuration.

Antenna Configuration Principlesl One antenna can serve up to two DRFUs.

NOTE

Single antenna refers to a bi-polarization antenna, which provides two antenna ports.

l The single antenna mode supports the maximum cell configuration of S4; the doubleantenna mode supports the cell configurations of S4 to S12.

l By default, the receive diversity is adopted in the GSM. That is, one dual-polarized antennamust be configured in a cell.

l In a single cell, one dual-polarized antenna is required in the cell configurations lower thanS4 and two dual-polarized antennas are required in the cell configurations of S5 to S8.

Table 8-1 RF configuration principles of the BTS3900

Principle Description Example

Configuration principles of asingle cabinet

l Star topology is adoptedbetween the BBU andDRFUs. The DRFUs andthe high-speed interfaceson the BBU have a one-to-one mapping relationship.That is, if DRFU slot 1 isidle, CPRI port 1 on theBBU is also idle.

l A single cabinet supportsthe maximum cellconfiguration of S4/4/4.

None

Configuration principles ofmultiple cabinets

l When star and ringtopologies are adoptedbetween the BBU andDRFUs, three levels ofDRFUs in a ring can beconnected to one BBU.That is, one BBU supports3 x 3 = 9 DRFUs.

l When star and chaintopologies are adoptedbetween the BBU andDRFUs, three levels ofDRFUs on a chain can beconnected to one BBU.That is, one BBU supports6 x 3 = 18 DRFUs.

None

Minimum number ofantennas

l Each sector of the BTSmust be configured withthe minimum number ofantennas.

l For the 2-antenna receivediversity, each sector hastwo antenna channels; forthe 4-antenna receivediversity, each sector hasfour antenna channels.

None



8-3


Non-combination in thetransmit channel

l The non-combinationconfiguration isrecommended for theDRFU to avoid the powerloss in combination and toreduce the powerconsumption of the BTS.

l If combination is required,the cavity combiner mustbe configured outside theDRFU and onecombination isrecommended.

None

Configuring two TRXs inone sector

l A single DRFU does notsupport the S1/1application; however,three DRFUs support theS3/3 application.

l When the DRFU works intransmit PBT, transmitdiversity, or 4-way receivediversity mode, a DRFUprovides only one TRX.Therefore, the actualconfiguration does notinvolve the mode ofconfiguring two TRXs inone sector.

For example, for a site inS5/4/7 cell configuration,nine DRFUs are installedmeeting the requirements ofS6/4/8 cell configuration butdata is still configured inS5/4/7 cell configuration.

Parity cell configuration When the sectorconfiguration in the middle isS4 or S8, the TRXs in theneighbor sectors can beconfigured to the middlesector.

S3/4/3, S3/4/5, S5/4/3,S3/4/7, S7/4/3, S5/4/5,S5/4/7, S7/4/5, S7/4/7,S3/8/3, S3/8/5, S3/8/7,S5/8/3, S5/8/5, S5/8/7,S7/8/3, S7/8/5, and S7/8/7

Number of DRFUs Number of DRFUs = (Roundup) Number of S1 sectors +(Number of TRXs - Numberof S1 sectors) ÷ 2

l S1/1/1: Number ofDRFUs = 3

l S3/3/3: Number ofDRFUs = (Round up) (9 ÷2) = 5

l S1/2/3, Number of DRFUs= 1 + (Round up) ((6 - 1) ÷2) = 4

l S1/1/3, Number of DRFUs= 2 + (Round up) ((5 - 2) ÷2) = 4


Product Description


Issue 02 (2008-04-30)


TRX allocation in doubleantenna mode

After TRX allocation, thecells with the odd number ofTRXs are adjacent cells.l S5 = S3 + S2 or S5 = S2 +

S3l S6 = S4 + S2 or S6 = S3 +

S3l S7 = S4 + S3 or S7 = S3 +

S4l S8 = S4 + S4

l In S3/5/4, S5 can bedivided into S3 + S2.Then, the cellconfiguration is S3/(3/2)/4.

l In S2/5/5, the first S5 isdivided into S2 + S3; thesecond S5 is divided intoS3 + S2. Then, the cellconfiguration is S2/(2/3)/(3/2).

NOTE

In the mode of configuring two TRXs in one sector, a DRFU belongs to only one sector.

Configuration Principles of the BBUl One BBU provides six CPRI ports. In the ring topology, a single BBU supports up to 18

TRXs; in the chain topology, a single BBU supports up to 36 TRXs.l Table 8-2 describes the configuration principles of the boards in the BBU.
