1.1 Orientation
The DBS3900 WiMAX is the distributed WiMAX BTS developed by Huawei and complies
with IEEE 802.16e standards. Currently, the DBS3900 WiMAX satisfies the application
requirements of high-end mobile WiMAX networks, and thus is applicable to global markets.
Its coverage and capacity are expanded through 4T4R multi-antenna technologies, its
maintainability and testability are improved, and thus it provides subscribers with the wireless
broadband access services of large capacity and high quality.
The WiMAX system consists of the mobile station/subscriber station (MS/SS), access service
network (ASN), and connectivity service network (CSN). Figure 1-1 shows the position of the
DBS3900 WiMAX in the WiMAX network.
The MS/SS is the subscriber terminal on the WiMAX network. With the MS/SS, the
subscriber uses the services provided by the operator.
The ASN consists of the BTS (DBS3900 WiMAX) and ASN-GW, and provides wireless
access services for the CSNs of various network service providers (NSPs). One ASN can
be connected to multiple CSNs.
The CSN consists of the router, the authentication, authorization and accounting (AAA)
agent/server, and the Internet gateway, and supports subscriber databases. In addition, it
performs functions such as IP connection, mobility management, QoS management, and
billing management.
1.2 Features
The DBS3900 WiMAX uses advanced technologies, has high performance, and reduces the
network construction cost.
Flexible Networking
The DBS3900 WiMAX supports four networking modes.
The frequency reuse mode is denoted with N x S x K (N indicates the number of BTSs forming a cluster
on the network, S indicates the number of sectors on each BTS, and K indicates the number of
frequencies at which each BTS works).
PUSC 1x3x1: The three sectors of a BTS are used as a reuse cluster, each sector uses 1/3
subchannels at a frequency, and the equidirectional sectors on different BTSs use the
same subchannel.
PUSC with all SC 1x3x3: The three sectors of a BTS are used as a reuse cluster, the three
sectors of each BTS work at a frequency respectively, and the equidirectional sectors on
different BTSs work at the same frequency. Different BTSs use different UL_PermBase
and DL_PermBase to balance interference, and thus the co-channel interference between
cells is reduced.
FFR 1x3x1 (same-frequency FFR): The three sectors of a BTS are used as a reuse cluster
and work at a frequency. In addition, the border area of each sector uses some
subchannels to ensure coverage, and the center area of each sector uses all the
subchannels to improve spectrum usage.
FFR 1x3x1 (different-frequency FFR): The three sectors of a BTS are used as a reuse
cluster, each sector works at a frequency respectively, the border area of each sector uses
some subchannels at the corresponding frequency, and the center area of each sector uses
all the subchannels at the corresponding frequency.
When satellite signals cannot be received, the system automatically switches to the free-run mode, and
the BTS can work normally in this mode for eight hours.
2.1 Overview
The DBS3900 WiMAX uses the modular design. It has only two basic functional modules:
BBU and RRU. The BBU communicates with the RRU through the high-rate CPRI interface.
The RRU3702 is connected to the BBU3900 through optical fibers and to the antenna system
through feeders or jumpers, as shown in Figure 2-1.
2.2.2 RRU3702
As a remote RF unit, the RRU3702 is the IF and RF subsystem of the DBS3900 WiMAX. It
implements the conversion between baseband signals, IF signals, and RF signals, demodulates
the received radio signals, modulates the signals to be transmitted, and amplifies the signal
power.
If the RRU3702 is installed on the tower and close to the antenna, only the jumper is used to connect the
antenna and the RRU3702.
The DBS3900 WiMAX often uses the two-port antenna and the four-port antenna.
If the RRU3702 is used as two 2T2R RRUs, the two-port antenna is recommended for
implementing the two-antenna MIMO function.
If the RRU3702 is used as the 4T4R RRU, the four-port antenna is recommended for
implementing the four-antenna MIMO function.
The DBS3900 WiMAX supports the RET antenna. The RS485 signal cable connects the RET
antenna and the RRU. The maintenance personnel can log in to the M2000 in the equipment
room to remotely maintain and manage the RET antenna, such as automatic scanning, antenna
tilt setting, and status query.
TMC11H
If larger space is required for customer equipment, the TMC11H is recommended. The
TMC11H can provide a maximum of 11U space for customer equipment. The BBU3900 can
be installed in the TMC11H.
The TMC11H dissipates heat through the core of the heat exchanger and the outer and inner
air circulation fans. Therefore, its heat dissipation insulation is good and it is applicable to
outdoor scenarios.
2.5.2 EMUA
The EMUA is used to monitor the environments in the equipment room and the cabinet, and is
applicable to all types of BTSs manufactured by Huawei.
The EMUA performs following functions:
Environment monitoring: The EMUA provides an independent 12 V/24 V DC
current-type (4 mA to 20 mA) port for a temperature and humidity sensor. The
temperature sensing range is -20oC to +80oC. The EMUA provides four ports for analog
value signal monitoring. Voltage-type (0 V to 5 V) and current-type (4 mA to 20 mA)
analog value signal sensors can be used.
Boolean value signal monitoring: The EMUA provides ports for Boolean value signal
monitoring. Boolean value signal sensors of the dry-contact mode and OC mode can be
used.
Communication ports: The EMUA provides two RS485 communication ports for the
communication between the EMUA and the BTS.
2.5.3 DCDU
The DCDU is an indoor surge protection and power distribution box for DC power supply,
performing power distribution for the DBS3900 WiMAX.
The DCDU performs the following functions:
Providing surge protection for DC power input
Converting the -48 V DC power input into multiple -48 V DC power outputs and
providing simple power distribution functions
Supporting DC power surge protection alarms
3.1 Overview
The DBS3900 WiMAX is easily installed with a small footprint and has low power
consumption. Therefore, it can coexist with the existing site. With these features, the
DBS3900 WiMAX fully addresses operators' concern over site acquisition, facilitates network
planning and optimization, reduces network construction time, and thus enables operators to
efficiently deploy a high-performance WiMAX network with a low total cost of ownership
(TCO) by minimizing the investment in electricity, space, and labor.
BBU+RRU+APM30H
There are two types of scenarios for BBU+RRU+APM30H:
If the site is configured with the -48 V DC power supply and has no requirements for
power backup, only the transmission cabinet TMC11H is used. The BBU and
DCDU-03C are installed in the TMC11H, and the RRU is installed on the wall, pole, or
tower. The DCDU-03C distributes the DC power supply to the BBU, RRU, and related
transmission devices.
If the site is configured with only the 220 V AC power supply, the APM30H can be
installed as required. The BBU and transmission devices are installed in the APM30H,
and the RRU is installed on a wall, pole, or tower.
− If power backup is not required, only the outdoor power cabinet APM30H is used. It
provides a maximum of 7U space for the installation of the customer's equipment.
− When power backup is required, you can configure the battery cabinet IBBS200D or
IBBS200T, each of which can be configured with a built-in -48 V 184 Ah storage
battery group.
− If larger space is required, you can configure the transmission cabinet TMC11H,
which can provide extra 11U spaces.
Figure 3-1 shows the typical scenario of BBU+RRU+APM30H.
BBU+RRU+OMB
When the site is configured with 220 V AC power supply and has no requirement for power
backup, the BBU and the AC/DC converter are installed in the outdoor mini box (OMB) The
OMB is installed on the pole, and the RRU is installed on the wall, pole, or tower. This
scenario facilitates the site acquisition and reduces the site lease cost.
Figure 3-2 shows the typical scenario of BBU+RRU+OMB.
Co-Site Application
If the DBS3900 WiMAX is installed at the same site with a 2G or 3G BTS, the BBU can be
installed in a standard 19-inch cabinet that provides 2U space, and the RRU can be installed
on the rooftop or the tower, and close to the antenna. In this scenario, the BBU and RRU can
share the power backup system and transmission system with the 2G or 3G BTS, and thus
network construction cost and period are reduced.
Figure 3-3 shows the typical scenario of the co-site application.
4 Configurations
4.1 Overview
A single DBS3900 WiMAX supports a minimum of O(1) configuration, and a maximum of S
(2/2/2) configuration. It can be added with the BBBI, RRU, optical module, and optical cable,
and added with sector carriers through software configuration to expand capacity smoothly.
5.1 Overview
The DBS3900 WiMAX supports two OM modes: centralized OM and local OM.
Centralized OM: On the iManager M2000 in the equipment room, the user can remotely
maintain BTSs in a centralized manner, such as data configuration, remote
commissioning, alarm monitoring, performance monitoring, software upgrade, and
network adjustment.
This OM mode can save time and labor and thus reduce the operating expense (OPEX).
Local OM: With a computer, the user maintains the BTS by logging in to the BTS
through the web site, such as alarm management, data configuration through man
machine language (MML) commands, network adjustment, and subscriber management.
The LMT software is not required for the computer.
Figure 5-1 shows the typical networking for OM.
5.2 OM Features
The OM functions provided by the DBS3900 WiMAX involve software management, fault
management, performance management, configuration management, site deployment
management, equipment management, environment monitoring, tracing management, and log
management.
Configuration Management
Configuration management refers to configuring, querying, backing up, exporting, and
recovering BTS configuration data.
There are two modes of configuring DBS3900 WiMAX data: MML and graphic user interface
(GUI).
The MML mode is applicable only for single-BTS configuration. In the GUI mode, the user
can use the WCS integrated into the M2000 client to configure BTSs in batches.
Fault Management
The fault management system of the DBS3900 WiMAX detects hardware faults, environment
faults, and transmission faults, isolates the faulty components, and reports alarms.
The user can block the faulty carrier to prevent the neighboring cell from interference.
Therefore, the impact of faulty cell on the other components of the BTS can be avoided, and
the impact on the system services is minimized.
The alarm management system of the DBS3900 WiMAX timely detects and reports the faults
or exceptions on devices. On the iManager M2000, alarm information is displayed, and the
suggestions for clearing alarms are provided.
Performance Management
The performance management system of the DBS3900 WiMAX provides an all-around visual
operating environment. The user can perform performance management on the devices of the
entire network. Performance management refers to creating, modifying, and querying
performance measurement tasks and to managing measurement results. The user can trace the
running statuses of the network and devices, assess the performance of the network and
devices, and obtain network optimization references through performance management.
On the M2000, the user can set the subscription period and object. Then, performance
measurement results are displayed on the client of the M2000 periodically. The subscription
period can be set to 30 minutes.
Software Management
The DBS3900 WiMAX provides software version query, software upgrade, and patch
management.
Software version query refers to querying the BTS software version through MML
commands.
One-key software upgrade refers to upgrading the software of multiple BTSs through
GUI upgrade wizard on the M2000 client, and involves performing the health checks
before and after the upgrade, downloading and activating the software, displaying the
upgrade progress and status during the upgrade, sending the upgrade report during the
upgrade, and verifying services after the upgrade.
If the software upgrade fails or the network performance deteriorates greatly in the call
test after the upgrade, the user can perform version rollback through the GUI upgrade
wizard on the M2000 client to minimize the impact of upgrade failure on the system.
Patch management involves patch query, patch installation, and rollback.
Environment Monitoring
The DBS3900 WiMAX performs comprehensive environment monitoring functions through
the environment monitoring device. Therefore, the unmanned DBS3900 WiMAX can be
deployed across wide areas and operate adverse environments.
The environment monitoring device is connected to the BBU3900 alarm port through the
monitoring signal cable. When the environment monitoring device detects an alarm of access
control, infrared sensing, smoke sensing, water sensing, or temperature monitoring, or a
customized alarm, the BBU reports the alarm to the M2000 and informs the attendant.
Tracing Management
Tracing management refers to tracing the R1 interface, R6 interface, subscribers, and system
resources through the M2000.
Interface tracing management refers to tracing and resolving the messages over the R1
and R6 interfaces, facilitating fault location.
Subscriber tracing management refers to tracing a single subscriber's messages over the
R1 and R6 interfaces. In this way, the user can monitor the information such as signal
quality.
System resource tracing refers to tracing carrier status, board CPU usage, and board
temperatures. In this way, the user can learn about the usage of system resources.
Log Management
Logs are classified into operation logs, running logs, security logs, commissioning logs, and
call logs. The user can back up logs in a specified directory and at a specified interval.
