1.2 Application Scenario and Precautions


To improve the configuration efficiency, the CME automatically generates non-negotiation
parameters. Therefore, the user does not need to plan these parameters. In this case, a couple
of planned areas of multiple standalone CMEs or an integrated CME are independent from
each other. Therefore, when more than one user performs configuration operations on the
same BSC by using the CME, non- negotiation parameters automatically generated by the
CME may conflict with each other. As a result, configuration commands fail to be executed
on the NE and the data duplication error is displayed, for example, Duplicate BTS Index.
Non- negotiated parameters automatically generated by the CME may conflict with each other
in one of the following scenarios:

When the integrated CME is used, multiple users create their own planned areas which
involve the same BSC. Then, users perform configuration operations on the NE in their
own planned area.

When the standalone CME is used, multiple users import the same bcp file to the CME,
and then perform configuration operations on the BSC through the CME.

To avoid configuration data conflicts, note the followings:

Ensure that different users manage different BSCs during network planning, that is,
multiple users perform configuration operations on different BSCs by using the CME,
such as create a site, add frequencies, add external cells, or add transmission links.

If different users perform operations on the same BSC, perform the following steps to
avoid data conflicts:

Issue 01 (2010-11-20)

Plan all non-negotiation parameters instead of using parameters generated


automatically by the CME.

Ensure that users perform configuration operations in turn, that is, after a user
completes the configuration and exports the scripts, another user is notified to start to
perform the configuration.

Creating an MBSC

This section describes the method of completing the initial configuration of the BSC6900 by
using the standalone CME.

2.1 Configuration Scenario and Method


Scenario

Method

The first BSC6900 is


configured or the
configuration of the new
BSC6900 is different from
configurations of all
existing BSC6900s.

The standalone CME provides the bcp file which involves


the typical configuration of the BSC6900 (in GU mode) with
the single subrack. When creating a BTS, the user can use
this file and configure the global data, device data, clock
data, and interface data by following the process of creating a
BTS in the product manual.

The configuration plan


(hardware and interfaces)
of the BSC6900 to be
created is similar to that of
an existing BSC6900.

After a typical BSC is created, the user can export the


configuration data of the BSC to create another BSC. The
configuration data can be exported through one of the
following methods:

Issue 01 (2010-11-20)

After the previous user executes the configuration scripts


on the BSC, the next user exports the bcp file to the CME
from the BSC and then performs configuration operations
based on the file.

The bcp file cannot be obtained on the field, but the BSC
configuration needs to be copied to create another BSC. In
this case, after completing the BSC configuration, the
previous user exports the configuration scripts, packs these
scripts into a zip file, and delivers this zip file to the next
user. Then, the next user imports this zip file and performs
the configuration operations based on this file.

2.1.1 Principle of Selecting a Typical BSC (GSM)

Select the BSC whose configuration is similar to that of the BSC to be created. Then, the
user only needs to make a few modifications on global data and device data.

Select the BSC which accesses the same core network with the BSC to be created. In this
case, the user only needs to make a few modifications on the data related to the signaling
point, A interface, and Gb interface.

2.1.2 Principle of Exporting Configuration Data of


the Typical BSC (GSM)

The configuration data of different BTSs controlled by different BSCs has little
similarity. Therefore, before BTSs are configured on the typical BSC, export the
configuration data to provide a guide for the configurations of other BSCs.

The configuration data of external cells served by different BSCs has little similarity.
Therefore, before external cells are configured on the typical BSC, export the
configuration data to provide a guide for the configurations of other BSCs.

2.1.3 Principle of Selecting a Typical RNC (UMTS)

Select the RNC whose hardware configuration is similar to that of the RNC to be
created. In this case, the user only needs to make a few modifications on global data and
device data.

Select the RNC which accesses the same core network with the RNC to be created. In
this case, the user only needs to make a few modifications on the signaling point data.

2.1.4 Principle of Exporting Configuration Data of


the Typical RNC (UMTS)

Most of Iu interface data cannot be modified. To reduce the data modification workload,
export the configuration data of the typical RNC to provide a guide for the
configurations of other RNCs before the Iu interface is configured.

The configuration data of NodeBs served by different RNCs has little similarity.
Therefore, before BTSs are configured on the typical RNC, export the configuration data
to provide a guide for the configurations of other RNCs.

The configuration data of external cells served by different RNCs has little similarity.
Therefore, before external cells are configured on the typical RNC, export the
configuration data to provide a guide for the configuration of other RNCs.

Creating a BTS

The CME supports the BTS creation in the GUI or by importing the negotiation data file. That
is, the user sets the planning data in the GUI or prepares the planning data in the negotiation
data file and then imports the data.
To reduce the number of parameters to be set during the configuration and ensure the
consistency of parameters of multiple BTSs and cells, the CME provides the templates to
encapsulate parameters that can be reused by multiple BTSs. The user can specify a template
in the GUI or in the negotiation data file and configure the BTS rapidly. If the planning data
overlaps certain parameters, the planning data prevails.
Templates such as the BTS template and cell template may be involved during the BTS
creation.

3.1 Custom BTS Template


3.1.1 Principle of Using a Custom BTS Template
During the BTS planning, the user prepares custom templates through the following
principles:

Customize templates based on the BTS type. At least, each type of BTSs matches a
template, for example, separately define a template for the BTS3900 S444 and BTS3900
S666.

If BTSs of the same type differ in hardware configuration, determine whether to define
more than one template according to the configuration difference, for example, S444
series BTSs.

Issue 01 (2010-11-20)

If there are few inconsistent hardware configurations, only one template is defined for
the creation of S444 series BTSs. Then, the user can adjust the inconsistent
configurations in the GUI.

If there are many inconsistent hardware configurations, more than one template are
defined for S444 series BTSs according to the configuration differences, for example,
templates with the bypasses or without bypasses.

to the template to be customized. Then, configure the BTS (serving as a base BTS) in the GUI
or by importing the data file. Finally, save the data of the base BTS as a custom template.

3.2 Custom Cell Template


3.2.1 Principle of Using a Custom Cell Template
During the BTS planning, the user prepares custom templates through the following
principles:
Customize templates based on the planned cell type. At least, each type of cells matches one
template, for example, separately define a template for EDGE cells and half-rate EDGE cells.

3.2.2 Creating a Custom Cell Template


During the BTS creation, select a system-carried template whose configuration is similar to
the cell template to be customized. Then, configure the BTS (serving as a base BTS) in the

3. Import the modified Excel file and create
BTSs in batch.
4. Import the wireless network planning data to
configure external cells and neighboring cells.
5. If certain planning parameters are
inconsistent with those of the BTS template,
make some modifications.

A batch of
BTSs (more
than ten) are
created.

Issue 01 (2010-11-20)

The scenario features a great number of BTSs


and a small number of BTS types. Then, the

Creating a NodeB

To reduce the number of parameters to be set during the configuration and ensure the
consistency of parameters of multiple NodeBs and cells, the CME provides the templates to
encapsulate parameters that can be reused by multiple NodeBs. The user can specify a
template in the negotiation data file to configure the NodeB rapidly. If the planning data in the
negotiation data file overlaps certain parameters, the planning data prevails.
Templates such as the NodeB template and cell template may be involved during the NodeB
creation.

4.1 Custom NodeB Template


4.1.1 Principle of Using a Custom NodeB Template
During the NodeB planning, the user prepares custom templates through the following
principles:

Customize templates based on the NodeB type. At least, each type of NodeBs matches a
template, for example, separately define a template for the BTS3900 3x1 and BTS3900
3x2.

If NodeBs of the same type differ in hardware configuration, determine whether to


define more than one template according to the difference, for example, 3x1 series
NodeBs.

If there are few inconsistent hardware configurations, only one template is defined for
the creation of 3x1 series NodeBs. Then, the user can adjust the inconsistent
configurations in the GUI.

If there are many inconsistent hardware configurations, more than one template are
defined for 3x1 series NodeBs according to the configuration differences.

4.1.2 Creating a Custom NodeB Template


During the NodeB creation, select a system-carried template whose configuration is similar to
the NodeB template to be customized. Then, configure the NodeB (serving as a base NodeB)
by importing the negotiation data file. Finally, save the data of the base NodeB as a custom
template.

Configuring an MBTS

This section describes the principle of configuring an MBTS and the relevant parameter
settings.

6.1 MBTS
In an MBTS, each NE has an independent control board. That is, each NE functions
independently and has a complete set of configuration data.
A GU MBTS consists of a GBTS and a NodeB.
A GL MBTS consists of a GBTS and an eNodeB.

6.2 Principle of Configuring an MBTS


The MBTS supports the following deployment modes:

Co-cabinet

The NEs that form an MBTS share a common set of electromechanical units, such as the fans,
temperature control unit, power monitoring unit, and environment monitoring unit.
When the user configures or manages the common electromechanical units on one NE, ensure
that the parameter settings on this NE are consistent with those on the other NE. Otherwise,
an alarm is triggered due to conflicting parameter settings on two NEs.
Common devices include:

Electromechanical devices in the BBU

The parameter settings of the unit in each slot of each subrack in the cabinet must be
consistent between the NEs.

Local RS485 electromechanical devices

The parameter settings of the unit in each slot of each subrack in the cabinet must be
consistent between the NEs.

INTERNAL
iManager M2000-CME V200R010C00SPC220
Guide to NE Configuration on the CME

The RS485 fieldbus address of the local RS485 electromechanical unit, whose cabinet,
subrack, and slot information is consistent between the NEs, must be consistent between the
NEs. Likewise, the slot, subrack, and cabinet information about the electromechanical unit
whose RS485 fieldbus address is consistent between the NEs must be consistent between the
NEs.

Remote electromechanical devices and RET antennas

The cabinet, subrack, and slot information about each remote electromechanical unit must not
conflict between the NEs, and each RET antenna number must be unique within the MBTS.

Co-RF

In the MBTS deployed in this mode, the NEs share both common electromechanical units and
the MRFU/MRRU. The software-defined radio (SDR) technology enables the TRXs and
carriers to be transmitted through one MRFU/MRRU in the MBTS.
In co-RF mode, the MBTS adopts the dual-star structure in connecting the physical MRRU to
the NEs. The cabinet, subrack, and slot information about the MRRU on one NE must be
consistent with that on the other NE. The cabinet, subrack, and slot information about the
physical MRRUs not shared by the NodeB and GBTS must be different between the NEs.
The MSR for 3GPP co-RF MBTSs is to be released in July 2010. Currently, the user is
recommended to configure independent transmit channels for GU MBTSs. That is, the NEs in
the MBTS do not share the power amplifier (PA).

An MRFU provides one transmit channel. Therefore, a GU MBTS needs two MRFUs.

An MRRU provides two transmit channels. Currently, the NEs do not share the PA if the
MBTS is configured with an MRRU.

The hardware specifications of the RF modules of an MBTS have limitations in terms of the
number of TRXs and carriers, bandwidth, and power. That is, ensure that the sum of TRXs
and carriers configured for the NEs does not exceed the specifications.

6.3 MBTS Types


SRAN 5.0 supports the following types of MBTSs:

GU MBTS

GL MBTS

UL MBTS

GU MBTSs and GL MBTSs can be deployed in co-cabinet and co-RF modes, which are
typical configuration scenarios. The CME provides functions of configuring these types of
MBTSs. For details about the functions, see the description in later sections.
UL MBTSs can only be deployed in co-cabinet mode, which is a non-typical configuration
scenario. The CME provides consistency check on the parameter settings of common
electromechanical units for this type of MBTSs. For details about the functions, see the
function description of SRAN 3.0.

Creating an MBTS

The CME provides configuration templates that provide the common parameters shared by
the NEs in an MBTS. During MBTS deployment through the GUI or negotiation data files,
the user can specify a suitable template and then complete the configuration of common
electromechanical units of the MBTS quickly. In this way, the user can reduce the number of
input parameters and ensure the consistency of parameters settings between the NEs.
As the interface protocol stack for each RAT is different, the user needs to plan and configure
the transport layer data on each NE separately.
As each NE adopts a different RAT, the user needs to plan and configure the data of the radio
layer on each NE separately.
The CME provides the functions of configuring GU MBTSs and GL MBTSs. The following
section takes the creation of a GU MBTS as an example.

7.1 Custom MBTS Template


7.1.1 Principle of Using a Custom MBTS Template
The user needs to customize a template for each typical configuration scenario according to
the actual configuration of common electromechanical units.
A custom MBTS template consists of the common parameters of the GBTS template and the
NodeB template.

7.1.2 Creating a Custom MBTS Template


Create a golden MBTS, complete the configuration of each NE in the MBTS through the GUI
or negotiation data files, and save the configuration data of the golden MBTS as a custom
template. For details about how to create a golden MBTS, see the SRAN 3.0 guide.

7.2 Creating an MBTS


The user can deploy an MBTS through the GUI or negotiation data files.

same as that for deploying a single-RAT NodeB.
MBTS data negotiation file: The user needs to specify the mapping between the GBTS and
NodeB in this file.
Step 3 Import the negotiation data files.
The user needs to import the negotiation data files to the CME.
Step 4 Check/adjust the common parameters.
The user needs to check the consistency of common parameter settings and adjust inconsistent
parameter settings.

Note: The user does not need to specify the Iub negotiation data file when reconstructing a
GBTS and does not need to specify the GBTS negotiation data file when reconstructing a
NodeB.
The user can also adopt the configuration mode introduced in SRAN 3.0 to deploy MBTSs
through negotiation data files.
Step 1 Import the GBTS negotiation data file.
The user needs to create a GBTS by importing the GBTS negotiation data file.
Step 2 Import the Iub negotiation data file.
The user needs to create a NodeB by importing the Iub negotiation data file.
Step 3 Configure the GBTS and NodeB into an MBTS.
The user needs to configure the GBTS created in step 1 and the NodeB created in step 2 into
an MBTS in the MBTS configuration/browsing window.
Step 4 Check/adjust the common parameters.
The user needs to check the consistency of common parameter settings and adjusts
inconsistent parameter settings.

7.2.2 Creating an MBTS Through the GUI


The mode of creating the MBTS through the GUI is applicable to a new MBTS. The user
needs to run the ADD UNODEB command to create the logical NodeB on the RNC/MBSC
for the NodeB in the MBTS.
The user needs to set the following parameters in the GUI when deploying a new MBTS:
1.

Basic GBTS parameters, including the ID, name, site type, and Abis interface

2.

Basic NodeB parameters, including the site type and version

3.

Parameters in the MBTS template

After a new MBTS is deployed, the user needs to perform the following GUI operations:
1.

Guide to NE Configuration on the CME

Adjusting MBTS

Parameter Settings
The CME provides functions of configuring GU MBTSs and GL MBTSs. This section takes
the configuration of a GU MBTS as an example to describe the adjustment of MBTS
parameter settings.
The CME provides an MBTS device panel for configuring common electromechanical units,
which supports the following functions:

Displaying all MBTS units (including all GBTS and NodeB units) and identifying the
common electromechanical units shared by the GBTS and NodeB.

Ensuring the consistency of common parameter settings between the GBTS and NodeB.
The settings of common parameters performed on one NE take effect on both NEs in the
MBTS.

The CME provides data check and adjustment for the RF module of the MBTS deployed in
co-RF mode.

The CME supports the check of the carriers and TRXs on the RF module in terms of
bands, bandwidth, and power and generates an error report on the items incompliant with
the hardware specifications.

The CME provides one-touch adjustment of inconsistent parameter settings. The CME
collects and lists the optional adjustment suggestions for the user to choose and then
completes the adjustment automatically.
