1.3 Benefits of the BTS3900

The indoor macro BTS3900 adopts the unified module design, and thus allows multiple radio access technologies (RATs) in one cabinet. It is small in size and light in weight, and supports smooth evolution to the Long Term Evolution (LTE).
1.3.1 Efficient Site Usage and Fast Networking

The BTS3900 is one of the most compact macro base stations in the industry with the footprint of only 600 mm x 450 mm; thus meeting the space requirements of the operator for site acquisition and equipment room construction. The BTS3900 has a streamlined modular structure. The part assembly and disassembly are easy and fast.
1.3.2 Cost-Effective Solutions for Capacity and Coverage

A DRFU provides two TRXs. The transmit power on top of the cabinet per TRX is up to 45 W for GSM900 or 71 W for GSM900 in Power Boost Technology (PBT) mode. With excellent performance, the BTS3900 guarantees wide coverage and high throughput, and helps minimize the number of sites. The BTS3900 supports two-way receive diversity, four-way receive diversity, transmit diversity, and PBT. Therefore, the uplink coverage and downlink coverage are enhanced. The TMA can be configured for the BTS3900 to improve the receive sensitivity.
1.3.3 Green Communication Design

The BTS3900 adopts the innovative technology in management on power amplification and power consumption. The occupation on resources, such as the equipment room and energy resources, is minimized. Compared with traditional macro BTSs, the integrated BTS3900A cabinet has the power consumption reduced by 8%. Therefore, the power rate and the cost on related devices, such as power equipment, batteries, air conditioner, and heat exchanger, are reduced accordingly.
1.3.4 Reliable OM with Minimized OPEX

The BTS3900 can share the BBU, RFU, and power system with other products of the same BTS family. Thus, the cost in production, transportation, and OM is reduced. The BTS3900 features the streamlined structure design, separated installation of the BBU and DRFU, and assembled modules. The transportation, configuration, and installation become easy. As a result, the difficulty and cost in network construction for the telecom operator are minimized. No crane is needed because the BTS3900 cabinet weights only 57 kg. All the modules in the BTS3900 are easily accessible from the front of the cabinet, which reduces the maintenance expense.
1.3.5 Smooth Evolution to Future-Oriented Network

The BTS3900 is designed on the basis of the unified platform for the Huawei wireless products. BTSs for different networks such as GSM, WCDMA, CDMA,
Issue 02 (2008-05-06)

4.9 Co-Antenna on the Same Band

The same band antenna sharing unit (SASU) and the same band antenna sharing adapter (SASA) are adopted to provide low insertion loss and to reduce the cost of network deployment. The SASU is an important component for the solution of co-antenna at the same band. It enables two networks on the same band to share the existing antenna. The SASU is applied to two scenarios: co-antenna between a 2G cell and a 3G cell, and co-antenna between two 3G cells. In addition, the cost and time of the 3G network construction are minimized. The SASA is an important component for the solution of co-antenna between a 2G network and a 3G network at the same band. In the GSM network, the insertion loss of 0.8 dB is introduced in the downlink. Thus, the two TX carriers are combined on one antenna without deteriorating the network performance.

6.1 System Reliability
Redundancy configuration
Reliability
The BTS3900 improves the system reliability by adopting the design of load sharing and redundancy configuration, and optimizing the technique of detecting/isolating the faults on the board and in the system.
The transmission, power supply, and fan units in the system support redundancy configuration, and the BBU supports load sharing. The BBU and DRFUs form a ring. When a DRFU in the ring fails, anticlockwise switchover is performed; thus greatly improving the system reliability. Crucial system data such as software releases and data configuration files, is backed up to ensure the normal system operation in case of data corruption. Reliability The BTS3900 system can automatically detect and diagnose the faults in the software and hardware, and reports the fault alarms. In addition, the BTS3900 can monitor the environment and report environment alarms.
6.2 Hardware Reliability

Overcurrent protection The power system of the BBU and DRFU is protected against overcurrent, improper insertion, and inverse insertion. Overtemperature protection The BBU and DRFU are protected against high temperature. When the internal temperature is high, the system automatically performs power derating or switches off the power amplifier based on the current temperature. When the temperature reverts to the normal value, the system increases the power level or switches on the power amplifier. Monitoring mechanism The BBU can monitor the environment and report alarms. Stable power supply
Provides a wide range of input voltages and surge protection
Issue 02 (2008-05-06)
Page 37 of 52

Protects the programs and data of the system in case of power failure Protects the board against overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection of positive and negative poles
Perfect surge protection A 1 U-high surge protection box is provided for surge protection. Surge protection measures are taken for the AC/DC ports, input/output signal ports of the cabinet (E1 port and Boolean port), antenna port, and GPS port.
6.3 Software Reliability

Software reliability is guaranteed through data redundancy and powerful error tolerance.
6.3.1 Data Redundancy

Important files, such as software releases and configuration files, and crucial system data are backed up to ensure the normal system operation in case of data corruption. Redundancy of software releases The system backs up the software releases, including the BOOTROM, in different partitions. When a software release is faulty, the backup release can be used. Redundancy of data configuration files The system backs up the data configuration files in different partitions. When the running data configuration files are corrupted, the backup data configuration files can be used. Redundancy of the operation logs The system records the user operations in a certain period and backs up the information in the operation logs. When the system incurs an unknown error, the maintenance personnel can locate the problem by tracing back to the normal status, or perform the data restoration.
6.3.2 Error Tolerance

The error-tolerance ability prevents the system crash due to the software error. That is, the system has the self-healing ability. The capabilities of the software in error tolerance are as follows: Scheduled detection on the crucial resources Usage check is performed on the software in the system to release the suspended software resources, and generate logs and alarms. Task monitoring During the software running, the monitoring process monitors all the tasks. When an error occurs in the software or the hardware is faulty, the monitoring process reports alarms and attempts to restore the normal running of the software. Data check The system checks data consistency on a regular or an event-triggering basis, restores data consistency selectively or preferably, and generates related logs and alarms. Watchdog
