HiperMAX is the ultimate MobileWiMAX base station designed forhigh-density deployment situations.HiperMAX has been architected toprovide a highly scalable, fullyredundant base station product thatwill continue to deliver the optimumperformance for years to come.HiperMAX is fully compatible with theMobile WiMAX Network ReferenceModel (NRM) as part of the AccessService Network (ASN). HiperMAXsupports the reference point (R6)between the base station and the ASNGateway as well as the reference point(R8) between base stations. HiperMAXinterworks with Airspan’s ASNGateway called ControlMAX and withother third party ASN gateways.HiperMAX represents the state of theart, next generation base stationdesign and includes:•Fully upgradeable, softwaredefined, PHY and MAC layersenabling simultaneous support forboth Mobile WiMAX (SOFDMA) andFixed WiMAX (OFDM)•Fully digital, OBSAI based, fibreoptic interfaces between indoor andoutdoor equipment, which canoperate at up to 3km•Multi-channel transmit and receivediversity•2x2 and 4x2 MIMO configurations•4 or 8 channel Smart AntennaSystems (SAS)•Support for FDD and TDD profilesHiperMAX is designed to deliver thebest link budget with the highestcapacity and net throughput; allessential qualities for macro-celldeployments used in typical wirelessroll out.HiperMAX implements an all-outdoorradio with up to eight-elementantenna array system.All HiperMAX base stations supportSAS and multi-channel Transmit andReceive diversity and are platformready for SDMA, which uses theantenna array to enhance capacityand improve frequency re-use.HiperMAX base stations cooperatewith the IMS which is part of theConnectivity Service network (CSN) todeliver voice and other multimediaservices and can also be configured tosupport VoIP applications, using astandard media gateway to the PSTN.

HiperMAX Operation
The flexibility of the HiperMAX architec-ture allows many deployment configu-rations including those suited to bothmacro and micro cellular installations. Itsupports all outdoor as well as splitindoor / outdoor configurations allow-ing the operator to select the deploy-ment model best suited to operationalexpense considerations and site accessconstraints.A HiperMAX Base station configured fortraditional multi-sector macro-celldeployments consists of a basebandsection, suitable for location within aprotected environment, and an outdoorRF section. The indoor boards, referredto as blades within the ATCA standard,are housed in a 5 or 14 slot NEBS com-pliant ATCA chassis. The outdoor enclo-sure contains the RF subsystem compo-nents, which enables smart antennafunctionality running on a SoftwareDefined Radio (SDR). The connectionbetween the baseband and RF sectionsis made through a fibre optic cable.HiperMAX supports different antennaoptions including:•Tx and Rx Diversity•2x2 MIMO Matrix A & B•4x2 MIMO Matrix A & B•4 or 8 element SASThe antenna system of choice is con-nected to the outdoor RF unit and inturn to each baseband blade. HiperMAXcan support up to 12 baseband bladesper 14-slot shelf, with a single fibreoptic cable to each RF unit. Basebandblades can be configured to support 6active channels with full redundancy or12 active channels without redundancy.The ATCA shelf also houses the shelf controller and power supplies. In addi-tion to the ATCA shelf, the HiperMAXrack houses the Ethernet switch and theGPS synchronisation unit. The Ethernetswitch aggregates the individual trafficstreams onto a Gigabit Ethernet streamfor backhaul purposes. For TDD andsmart antenna operation the multiplesectors are locked to a GPS timingsource. The ATCA shelf manager pro-vides a platform management layerthat holds an inventory of field replace-able units in the system and monitorstheir status.Fibre optic modules operating at speedsof up to 3.1GBit/s and are connected tofibre optic cables capable of carrying upto 10Gb/s for future expansion, if required.The all outdoor version of HiperMAX isknown as HiperMAX-micro. This consistsof split baseband and RF sections con-nected via a fibre interface, but with allpower supply and GPS synchronisationfunctionality housed within a singleSDR-micro enclosure. This form factor isparticularly well suited to low densitymicro-cell sites where access to a tem-perature controlled room is not possibleor preferred. eg. a building rooftop.HiperMAX fully supports the extensiveQoS characteristics of the IEEE802.16e-2005 radio interface. In addi-tion, it incorporates specific additionalradio resource management featuresthat allow applications such as VoIP tobe robustly delivered by implementingAdmission Control on a per call basis.HiperMAX is managed by Netspan, theSNMP based central management plat-form.
