BTS (site)
Extension cabinetsBase cabinet
• A BTS may consists of one or more cabinets:
• The cabinet that contains the BCF (plus TRXs and Coupling
systems) is called a Base cabinet.
• The other cabinet containing the TRXs and coupling system
is called an Extension cabinet.

Coupling System
• There are two types of Transmission coupler but only one type can be ussed in the same BTS. Hybrid or Cavity couplers.
• The Hybrid combiner is a broad band coupler enabling the combination of two RF signals generated by two transmitters into one signal, with high flexibility in frequency management.
• The minimum frequency separation required between TXs connnected to one coupler is 200 Khz.
• The receive coupling is achieved by means of two components LNA and the RX splitter.
• RX splitter is aimed at at pre-amplifying the signal received from the duplexer, and splitting it into several outputs to drive the receivers. For diversity purposes, the RX Splitters are duplicated onto the diversity receive path.
• The duplexer allows the connection of the transmission and reception paths onto a single antenna.
• The device mainly consists of two pass band filters tuned on the transmit and receive frequency bands.

Compact BCF Module
• The Compact Base Common Function module is composed of six boards
• One BCF Interconnection
• Three Compact PCM Interface
• Two compactMain commonfunction
• The CBCF module manages Abis PCM interfaces,Signalling concentration (Lap D ) and Routing functions
• BTS synchronisation
• The RECAL board is incharge of collecting and managing internal and external alarms.

Where :• For DRX:
DRX digital part = DRX Logic board + Power Supply board, DRX Radio part = DRX Radio board + Power Supply board.
• For eDRX eDRX digital part = e-LDRX Digital board, eDRX Radio part = e-RDRX Radio board.
S8000E TRXFunctional view
• The e-DRX is designed to work in one of the frequency range used by the BTS (GSM 850,GSM900,E-GSM 900,GSM 1800 and GSM 1900), the personalisation is done by the radio board. The (e) DRX is split into.
• a DRX digital part including a frame processor, a TX logic (GMSK and 8-PSK or only GMSK modulation) and a local time base, working for all frequency bands.
• A DRX Radio part including a low power driver and dual receiver
• The use of DRX by separating the TX power Amplifier (PA) from the rest of the transmit chain, allows different power classes of transmission to be envisaged.

Characteristics of the ePA:• Available in GSM 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz frequency bands.• RF Output power: 30 W
Characteristics of the HePA:• Only available in GSM 1900 MHz frequency band.• RF Output power:
60W for GMSK modulation. 45W for 8-PSK modulation.

S8000/S12000 EDGE TRXFrom HW point of view
• The introduction of EDGE requires two new boards:
• An Edge driver+Receiver+Frame processor(eDRX) board.
• An Edge power Amplifier (e PA ) board
• The e DRX is fully backward and forward compatible with the current DRX versions.
• A combination of DRX, eDRX,PA and ePA (or HePA) can co-exist in a single BTS configuration (same cabinet and / or same cell)The association of both eDRX +e PA or HePA) enables the EDGE capability of the TRX.
• SW updation required in the BCF
