Huawei UMTS End-to-End Solution

Creating Value for Customers

Mobile communication is moving from simple voice and SMS to multimedia. UMTS can bring more attractive applications and better experience to subscribers, and provide a higher efficient network and faster roll-out capability of new services to operators. Huawei is dedicated to persistently bringing innovation and value to mobile communications world, and helps operators to deploy an easy-to-operate, TCO saving and future-oriented UMTS system.

TCO Saving
With Huawei innovative solutions, such as New Generation Node B, Distributed Node B Solution, Hybrid IP Transmission etc., operators can not only achieve the initial phase investment saving and a faster network deployment capability, but also, and more important, get a long-term OPEX saving, which is a big concern for operators especially in 3G era.

Future-oriented
Huawei is always considering saving future investment for operators and providing future-oriented networks as well. Huawei's unified core network, operating system and service platform, can all smoothly evolve to supporting 3GPP R6-based network. Huawei provides operators a full performance HSDPA solution (14.4 Mbps/cell) from day one to prompt service growth.

Distributed Node B Solution

Principle of Huawei Distributed Node B
Adopting remote RF technology, Huawei Distributed Node B consists of RRU (Remote Radio Unit) and BBU (Base Band Unit). RRU can be installed close to the antenna, and connected with the Host Node B or BBU via optical fiber.

HSDPA and Hybrid IP Transmission

Outstanding Advantages of Huawei HSDPA Solution
Peak rate up to 14.4 Mbps (DL), 384 kbps (UL) Dynamic 15 codes/cell allocation Support a wide variety of data rate, 12 categories of UE Support 64 HSDPA users in one cell simultaneously

Up to 30% Savings in TCO

Sites resource saving and easy site acquisition
BBU can be embedded in indoor and outdoor equipment due to its small size, 19' width x 1U height

Hybrid IP Transmission, Reducing Transmission Cost

With the deployment of HSDPA, much more transmission bandwidth is required. In order to meet the customers' requirements to reduce the cost of transmission with the same quality, Huawei provides a Hybrid IP transmission solution with the principle that voice and other services demanding conversational QoS are carried on high QoS network (eg. E1) and Best Effort packet data services are carried on low QoS network (eg. ADSL). It is also a stepping stone to All IP RAN solution.

RRU is easy to install due to its light weight, only 20 kg Fast deployment and civil work saving Distributed Node B can be used as macro Node B, RRU output power is 20 W Reducing power consumption
