Method of Procedure for Preventive Maintenance Node-B

Page 1

1.

Introduction.

This document is required as general guideline when perform activity, the preventive maintenance will be done every three months. During normal use, parts of the RBS become dirty and worn. To prevent a fault from occurring in the RBS, regular inspections, cleaning, and replacement of parts is necessary. This causes a minimum of interruption to the operation of the RBS. These maintenance instructions describe how to perform preventive maintenance on the RBS 3 !"#3$%&

/ault management

The ,ault 0andling function represents the lowest level of ,ault (anagement and is performed as close as possible to where faults occur. Page 4

1f a fault occurs in :)D(2 R2B, the ,ault 0andling function in the RB), RBS and R2B27 sends internal notifications to the 2larm 0andling and 3vent 0andling functions. :hen a fault occurs, the following actions ta-e place. %. Detection ,aults are detected automatically in :)D(2 R2B. Supervision functions are implemented to detect faults in hardware units as well as functions such as )ell handling. Bormal disturbances within limits are filtered before triggering a fault. . -ocali0ation The ,ault 0andling function identifies the faulty unit and includes information about it in the alarm report. 3. Isolation 'nce the ,ault 0andling function locates the fault, it minimi5es the effects by isolating the faulty unit. 1t ta-es the faulty unit out of service and sets its operational state to D1S2B63D. ,ault filtering and suppression reduces the number of issued alarms. $. Recover* 1f possible, the system is brought bac- into normal operation, for e9ample if there is a redundant unit available to replace the faulty unit. <. Re%orting The ,ault 0andling function generates an alarm, updates the B3 alarm list and B3 alarm log, and sends an alarm notification to 'SS;R). 1f 'SS;R) holds subscriptions for the alarm, the system forwards the alarm to the subscribers *normally a B(S+. 63Ds indicate any hardware faults. ". Correction The first step in the correction process is typically for the operator to loc- the faulty unit by setting the administrative state to 6')A3D. This removes all alarms on the unit *alarm clear notifications are issued+, although fault detection is still active to monitor the status. The ,ault 0andling function supports a C0ot repairD node capability, in some cases. This means that the field technician can unplug the unit without loc-ing the unit first. 1f the field technician inserts a replacement unit, the ,ault Detection function automatically verifies it and brings it into service if it is fault free *operational state is set to 3B2B63D and the alarm is cleared+. =. 1erification The system performs different tests and board verifications to ensure that the problem is corrected. 1n addition, the field technician or operator can perform manual tests in order to further verify the functionality of the unit. &. Restoration The operator usually restores the unit by unloc-ing the unit, that is, setting the administrative state to 8B6')A3D. 1f there are persisting faults on the unit, corresponding alarms are issued.
