2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
ALD is a generic term for antenna devices, including:
l Remote electrical tilt (RET) antenna
l Tower-mounted amplifier (TMA)
l Same-band antenna sharing unit (SASU)
l Active antenna system (AAS) module
Currently, a maximum of six ALDs can be cascaded on a control port of a remote radio unit
(RRU)/radio frequency unit (RFU) to enable the RET function, and the number of each type
of ALD varies in different application scenarios.
Table 2-1 lists the capabilities of GSM, UMTS, LTE FDD, and LTE TDD radio access
technology (RAT) systems to configure and manage different types of ALDs. Table legend:
Yes: supported; No: not supported.

NOTE
The RET cannot be used when a 4T4R RRU serves as two 2T2R RRUs in LTE TDD mode.
Table 2-2, Table 2-3, Table 2-4, Table 2-5 and Table 2-6 list the capabilities of RF modules
to support different types of ALDs.
If an RF port does not support RET antennas, control signals cannot be transmitted or
received on this RF port.

l The RCU is the control unit of an RET antenna. It receives and runs the control
commands from the base station and drives the stepper motor. The stepper motor drives
the phase shifter inside the antenna device, and the phase shifter adjusts the antenna tilt.
Interface RS485 functions as the control interface of the RCU.
l RET subunits are antenna devices that can be independently controlled.
An RET antenna may comprise more than one RET subunit combined in a single physical
entity. The RET antenna is classified into the following types:
Compared with antennas with mechanical downtilts, RET antennas have the disadvantages of
higher cost and higher complexity.
2.3 TMA
A TMA is a low noise amplifier (LNA) installed next to the antenna. It improves the signal-
to-noise ratio (SNR), sensitivity, and uplink coverage of a base station.
TMAs are classified into two types: common TMA and smart TMA. Unlike common TMAs,
smart TMAs support the Antenna Interface Standards Group (AISG) protocol. Unless
otherwise stated in this document, "TMA" refers to a smart TMA.
TMAs have a built-in smart bias-tee (SBT) that performs the following functions:
l Converts RS485 signals received from the RCU to on-off-keying (OOK) signals, and
converts OOK signals received from the RRU or RFU to RS485 signals
l Feeds DC power from the remote radio unit (RRU)/radio frequency unit (RFU) to the
RCU
NOTE
l The SBT provides DC power supply and control commands through the feeder for the RCU. The
SBT is applied on the RET antenna side.
l When an RRU or RFU connects to a TMA, at least one RF port supporting the TMA must connect
to this TMA so that the RRU/RFU can transmit control signals to the TMA. For details about
capabilities of RF modules to support the TMA, see Table 2-2 and Table 2-3.
A TMA has one or multiple subunits and supports amplification of one or multiple uplink RF
signals.
2.4 SASU
An SASU is a Huawei customized device for antenna sharing between intra-band GSM and
UMTS modes at a multimode site. Antenna sharing helps operators reduce their capital
expenditure (CAPEX). Currently, the SASU supports only the 900 MHz and 2100 MHz
frequency bands.
The SASU uses two subunits to amplify uplink signals of GSM and UMTS systems.
2.5.1 Overview
An AAS module incorporates the functions of RF modules and antennas. It consists of the
following function units:
The passive antennas and RCUs in the AAS provide the antenna and RET functions,
respectively, for the RRU/RFU that are connected to the AAS module.
For details about an AAS product, see the hardware description of the AAS product.
Different types of AAS modules have different sets of integrated dual-polarized antennas. For
details about the mapping between integrated antennas and either of the following: inserted
modules, RET functions, and external ports, see the hardware description of the AAS product.
The AAS module supports the RET function by using the Management Unit (MU), the
RETPORT on the AAS active module, or the RRU/RFU. Table 2-8 lists the capabilities of
AAS modules to support the RET function.
You can choose only one method based on onsite connections and AAS capabilities. When
the AAS module supports the RET function by using the AAS RU, you are advised to use
only one RU in the AAS to control all the RET antennas.
NOTE
In scenarios in which the RET antenna is connected through the GATM, the RET antenna does not
support ALD automatic deployment.
When you configure ALD device data, ALD automatic deployment is recommended. Use
ALD manual deployment in scenarios in which ALD automatic deployment is not supported.
Regular Scenario
In a regular scenario, an RRU can be connected to one RET antenna through the RET port
(RETPORT) or RF port (ANTENNAPORT). The RFU does not have an RETPORT and
therefore can be connected to one RET antenna only through the ANTENNAPORT.
l Connection to the RET antenna through the RETPORT
An AISG multi-wire cable connects the RETPORT on the RRU to the RCU of the RET
antenna, as shown in Figure 4-1. With the integrated BT, the RRU can send RS485
control signals and feed 12 V DC power to the RCU through the RETPORT. Therefore,
no SBT is required. This connection mode is recommended when the distance between
the RRU and the RET antenna is shorter than 20 m.
For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the following scenarios:
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 1 in section 8.4 Deployment.
– GBTS: scenario 1 in section 9.4 Deployment.
– Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 1 or 4 in section 10.4
Deployment.
l Connection to the RET antenna through the ANTENNAPORT
An SBT is required in this connection mode. Feeders and jumpers connect the RRU or
RFU, SBT, and RET antenna, and an AISG multi-wire cable connects the SBT to the
RCU of the RET antenna, as shown in Figure 4-2. The RRU or RFU combines OOK
signals, 12 V DC power, and RF signals, and sends the combined signals to the SBT
through feeders. The SBT splits the combined signals into two links. RF signals are sent
to the RET antenna on one link. On the other link, OOK signals are converted to RS485
control signals and 12 V DC power is forwarded to the RCU through an AISG multi-
wire cable.
For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the following scenarios:
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 2 in section 8.4 Deployment.
– GBTS: scenario 2 in section 9.4 Deployment.
– Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 1 or 4 in section 10.4
Deployment.
Connection modes shown in Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 also apply to a multimode base
station. For details about data configuration, see chapter 7 Engineering Guidelines
(ALD Manual Deployment on Multimode Base Station).
l Connection to the RET antenna through the RETPORT (with an external BT)
This connection mode applies to RRUs without a BT that are installed 20 m or farther
away from RET antennas, such as the RRU3801C (20 W) for UMTS, and RRU3220 for
LTE. Without a BT, RF ports cannot provide 12 V DC power for RET antennas. In this
case, connect the RETPORT on an RRU to an external Bias Tee (BT) and connect an
external SBT to an RET antenna for power supply to the antenna, as shown in Figure
4-3. The BT is the passive component that couples RF signals or OOK signals with
feeder signals. The BT is applied on the base station side.
Figure 4-3 Connection to the RET antenna through the RETPORT (with an external BT)
For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the following scenarios:
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 1 in section 8.4 Deployment.
– GBTS: scenario 1 in section 9.4 Deployment.
– Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 1 or 4 in section 10.4
Deployment.
connecting to the RET antennas through the ANTENNAPORT. The connection through the
ANTENNAPORT requires SBTs, and cascading can reduce the number of required SBTs. In
such a case, the RET antennas can be configured on the RRU or RFU that provides RS485
signals and power for the RET antennas.
In this scenario, the SCENARIO parameter for all RET antennas must be set to
DAISY_CHAIN, and the RET antennas are identified by serial numbers.
For the data configurations in the connection modes shown in Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5, see
the following scenarios:
l eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 1 and 2 in section 8.4 Deployment.
l GBTS: scenario 1 and 2 in section 9.4 Deployment.
l Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 1 or 4 in section 10.4
Deployment.
Connection modes shown in Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5 also apply to a multimode base
station with independent antennas. The configured RRUs/RFUs serve different modes.
The RET antenna data of a multimode base station must be configured only in a single mode.
For details about data configuration, see chapter 7 Engineering Guidelines (ALD Manual
Deployment on Multimode Base Station).
l In Figure 4-4, if RRU(1) is managed by the GBTS/eGBTS or eNodeB (the RET data is
configured on the GBTS/eGBTS or eNodeB side), the SCENARIO parameters must be
set to DAISY_CHAIN for RET antennas connected to RRU(1) and RRU(2).
l If RRU(1) is managed by the NodeB (the RET data is configured on the NodeB side),
the SCENARIO parameters must be set to DAISY_CHAIN and 2G_EXTENSION for
the RET antennas connected to RRU(1) and RRU(2), respectively.
Some RF modules, such as the RRU3942 and RRU3841, have four RF ports. These RF
modules have two or more RF ports to support RET functions in addition to the RETPORT.
For details, see Table 2-3. Two RF ports on these RF modules can be paired and connected to
one antenna to provide various transmit or receive functions. When the RRU3942 or
RRU3841 is used, you can refer to RRU3942 Hardware Description or RRU3841 Hardware
Description.
The following description assumes that the RRU3942 uses a 2T4R configuration. "T" and "R"
indicate transmission and reception, respectively. RF ports ANT_A and ANT_C on the
RRU3942 are paired and connected to one antenna, and RF ports ANT_B and ANT_D are
paired and connected to the other antenna.
When the RRU3942 is installed less than 20 m away from RET antennas, the RRU3942 is
connected to the RET antennas through the RETPORT. The RET antennas are cascaded
because the RRU3942 has only one RETPORT, as shown in Figure 4-6.
Figure 4-7 shows how the RRU3942 and RET antennas are connected to provide the 2T4R
function when the RRU3942 is installed more than 20 m away from the RET antennas and the
RET antennas are centrally installed.
In this connection mode, RF port ANT_A is the control port for the two RET antennas
connected to the RRU3942. For the data configuration for this connection mode, see scenario
2 in section 8.4 Deployment for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB or scenario 2 in section 9.4
Deployment for a GBTS.
In this scenario, the SCENARIO parameter for all RET antennas must be set to
SECTOR_SPLITTING, and the RET antennas are identified by serial numbers. For the data
configuration of this connection mode for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB, see scenario 2 in
section 8.4 Deployment. This connection mode does not apply to the GBTS.
GATM Scenario
The GSM Antenna and TMA Control module (GATM) scenario applies to the GBTS only. In
this scenario, a DRFU, which cannot provide OOK signals or support BT function, can be
connected to an RET antenna through a BT and SBT, as shown in Figure 4-9. The GATM
provides OOK signals and 12 V DC power for the BT. Then the BT combines OOK signals,
12 V DC power, and RF signals sent by the DRFU and sends the combined signals to the SBT
through feeders. The SBT splits the combined signals received into two links. RF signals are
sent to the RET antenna on one link. On the other link, OOK signals are converted to RS485
control signals and 12 V DC power is forwarded to the RCU through an AISG multi-wire
cable.
Because of its hardware limitations, the GATM supports only RET antennas compatible with
AISG1.1 protocols and does not support RET antennas compatible with AISG2.0 protocols.
For the data configuration for this connection mode, see scenario 5 in section 9.4
Deployment.
Run the following command to query dynamic information about RET additional data:
GBTS: DSP BTSRETDEVICEDATA
eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: DSP RETDEVICEDATA
If any information is incorrect in the command output, for example, the values of Max tilt and Min
tilt are NULL, no configuration file was loaded or the configuration file is lost.
l Antenna calibration
After an RET antenna is installed, run the following command to calibrate the RET
antenna:
– GBTS: CLB BTSRET
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: CLB RET
During the calibration, the RCU adjusts the RET antenna within the downtilt range so
that the RET antenna operates properly. If the RET antenna is not calibrated, the base
station reports ALM-26753 RET Antenna Not Calibrated.
After the preceding calibration command is executed, the RET antenna downtilt will be
restored to the configured value if it has been configured on the base station side. If it has
not been configured, the RET antenna downtilt will be determined by the actual RET
antenna implementation.
NOTE
An RET antenna does not need to be calibrated again after it is reset or powered off.
l Downtilt setting
a. After the RET antenna is calibrated, run the following command to query the
supported downtilt range:
GBTS: DSP BTSRETDEVICEDATA
eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: DSP RETDEVICEDATA
NOTE
The downtilt range of an RET antenna varies according to the manufacturer and model.
b. Run the following command to set an RET subunit downtilt:
GBTS: MOD BTSRETSUBUNIT
eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: MOD RETSUBUNIT
Setting the downtilt of an RET subunit affects the coverage of the RET antenna. Set the
downtilt based on the engineering design.
The base station can perform operations on the RCU separately, including software
download and RCU reset.
l RCU software download
Run the following command to download the RCU software:
– GBTS: LOD BTSALDSW. Before you run this command, run the DLD
BTSALDFILE command to download the RCU software from the file server to the
BSC OMU.
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: DLD ALDSW
For details about the RCU software, see the documents provided by the RET antenna
manufacturer.
l RCU reset
Run the following command to reset the RCU:
– GBTS: RST BTSALD
– eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: RST ALD
Resetting the RCU does not change the RET antenna downtilt.
Figure 4-10 Connection to the RET antenna through the ANTENNAPORT (with a TMA)
For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the following scenarios:
l eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 3 in section 8.4 Deployment.
l GBTS: scenario 3 in section 9.4 Deployment.
l Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 2 or 5 in section 10.4
Deployment.
Figure 4-11 shows how two RF modules are cascaded and then connected to the TMA and
RET antenna. In this mode, RF ports ANT_A on the two RF modules are connected to the
TMA and RET antenna, and either RF port ANT_A can be the control port for the RET
antenna connected to the two RF modules.
Figure 4-11 Two cascaded RF modules connected to the TMA and RET antenna
For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the following scenarios:
l eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: scenario 3 in section 8.4 Deployment.
l GBTS: scenario 3 in section 9.4 Deployment.
l Base station using ALD automatic deployment: scenario 6 in section 10.4 Deployment.
When RRUs with four RF ports are connected to two antennas, two RF ports on these RRUs
can be paired and connected to one antenna. The following description assumes that the
RRU3942 uses a 2T4R configuration. RF ports ANT_A and ANT_C on the RRU3942 are
paired and connected to one antenna, and RF ports ANT_B and ANT_D are paired and
connected to the other antenna. Figure 4-12 shows how the RRU3942 is connected to the
TMA and RET antenna.
Figure 4-12 RRU3942 (2T4R) connected to the TMA and RET antenna
In this connection mode, RF ports ANT_A and ANT_B are the control ports for Antenna(1)
and Antenna(2), respectively. For the data configurations in this connection mode, see the
following scenarios:
provide 12 V DC power for antennas. In this case, connect the RETPORT on an RRU to an
external BT to provide power for antennas, as shown in Figure 4-13.
The signal transmission process is as follows:
1. The RRU supplies 12 V DC power and sends RS485 control signals to the external BT
through an AISG multi-wire cable.
2. The BT converts RS485 control signals to OOK signals, combines the OOK signals and
RF signals, transparently forwards 12 V DC power, and sends the combined signals to
the TMA.
3. The TMA splits the combined signals into two links. RF signals are sent to the RET
antenna on one link. On the other link, OOK signals are converted to RS485 control
signals and 12 V DC power is forwarded to the RCU through an AISG multi-wire cable.
For the data configuration for this connection mode, see scenario 4 in section 8.4
Deployment for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB or scenario 4 in section 9.4 Deployment for
a GBTS.
Figure 4-13 Connection to the RET antenna through the RETPORT (with a TMA)
The GATM can supply power only to the connected TMA. The TMA provides the default
gains, not the configured gains. You need to configure parameters related to the power switch
and current alarm threshold for the port on the GATM connecting to the TMA. For details
about data preparation, see Table 9-7. Then, configure parameters related to the RX channel
attenuation. For details about data preparation, see Table 9-5. RET data is not involved in this
connection mode.
SASU data can be configured only on the NodeB side. Because the SASU is an active device,
you need to turn on the power switch for the 3G RRU control port on the NodeB side, and
specify current alarm thresholds. For connection mode in Figure 4-15, set the DCSWITCH
parameter for the SASU to OFF. Otherwise, the RET antenna will short-circuit. For the data
configuration for this connection mode, see scenario 5 in section 8.4 Deployment.
Figure 4-16 shows how the SASU, RRUs/RFUs, TMA, and RET antenna are connected
when the SASU is installed greater than 20 m away from the RET antenna. The SASU
combines 2G and 3G signals and sends the combined signals to the TMA. The TMA splits the
combined signals into two links. RF signals are sent to the RET antenna on one link. On the
other link, OOK signals are converted to RS485 control signals and 12 V DC power is
forwarded to the RCU through an AISG multi-wire cable.
In this connection mode, the DCSWITCH parameter for the SASU cannot be set to OFF
because the TMA is an active device. If the DCSWITCH parameter is set to UMTS, specify
the DCLOAD parameter for SASU subunits so that the TMA connected to the SASU can be
acknowledged by the base transceiver station (BTS). For the data configuration for this
connection mode, see scenario 6 in section 8.4 Deployment.
SASU is directly connected to the RET antenna, set the DCSWITCH parameter for the
SASU to OFF. Otherwise, the RET antenna will short-circuit.
l Setting SASU working mode
By default, the SASU is set to NORMAL working mode to ensure normal operation. If
you run the MOD SASUSUBUNIT command with the MODE parameter set to
BYPASS, the SASU serves as a straight-through feeder and does not amplify signals.
l Setting SASU gain
1. Run the DSP SASUDEVICEDATA command to query the value range of SASU gain.
2. Run the MOD SASUSUBUNIT command to set SASU subunit gain.
The base station can perform operations on the SASU separately, including software
download and SASU reset.
l SASU software download
Run the DLD ALDSW command to download the SASU software.
For details about the SASU software, see the documents provided by the SASU
manufacturer.
l SASU reset
Run the RST ALD command to reset the SASU.
Resetting the SASU does not change the SASU gain and working mode.
Scenario 1: Using the MU for the RET function on the AAS Module
As shown in Figure 4-17, RRUs or RFUs connect to an AAS module with passive antennas
through external ports on the AAS module. Choose an appropriate external port to connect the
RRU or RFU to the AAS module. The integrated RCU provides the RET function for the
AAS module with passive antennas and the RCU is controlled by the MU. In this scenario,
the RET function for the AAS module with passive antennas must be set by the mode that
manages the AAS module. For example, to enable GSM RRUs/RFUs to use the RET function
for the AAS module with passive antennas, the RET function must be set in the UMTS mode
that manages the AAS module with passive antennas.
Before setting the RET function, you must configure the AAS module. Compared with the
RET function on conventional antennas, the RET function on the AAS module with passive
antennas does not require you to configure power supply switches or current alarm thresholds.
For the data configuration for this connection mode, see scenario 7 in section 8.4
Deployment.
Figure 4-17 Connections to the RRUs/RFUs and BBU (MU for RET function)
Scenario 2: Using the RRU/RFU for the RET function on the AAS Module
When the RET function for an AAS module with passive antennas is provided by an RRU or
RFU connecting to the AAS module, the connections between the RRU or RFU and the AAS
module are similar to the connections between the RRU or RFU and the conventional RET
antennas except for the AISG port configuration, as shown in Figure 4-18. In this scenario,
the AAS module functions as the conventional RET antennas. Therefore, the configuration
can be performed in the same way as that for conventional RET antennas.
For other data configurations,
l If the RRU is to use an RETPORT to send RET signals to the AAS module, see scenario
1 in section 8.4 Deployment for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB or scenario 1 in section 9.4
Deployment for a GBTS.
l If the RET function is provided by the RRU or RFU through an ANTENNAPORT, see
scenario 2 in section 8.4 Deployment for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB or scenario 2 in
section 9.4 Deployment for a GBTS.
Figure 4-18 Connections to the RRUs/RFUs and BBU (RRU/RFU for RET function)
Scenario 3: Using the Active Module (RU) on the AAS for the RET function
When the RET function for an AAS module with passive antennas is controlled by the active
module on the AAS module:
l For the AAU3910, the active module forwards the RET signals received from the BBU
to the RETPORT, as shown in Figure 4-19.
l For the AAU3920 and AAU3940, the active module forwards the RET signals received
from the BBU to the ANTENNAPORT and the port must be R0A, as shown in Figure
4-20.
In this case, the active module works as a conventional RET device and therefore
configurations on this active module are the same as those on a conventional RET device.
For other data configurations for this connection mode for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB, see
scenario 8 in section "8.4 Deployment."
Figure 4-19 Connections to the RRUs/RFUs and BBU (RU for RET function)
Figure 4-20 Connections to the RRUs/RFUs and BBU (RU for RET function)
module cannot be scanned on or controlled by other RF modules that are also connected
to the AAS module.
If multiple RF modules share the AAS module, running the SCN ALD command may
fail to scan all the RET function controlled by each RF module at a time. In this case,
you can run the SCAN ALD command for each of the RF modules that control the RET
function for AAS modules that have not been scanned.
l Configuration file loading
Loading configuration files is not required because AAS modules with passive antennas
come with built-in configurations files. If ALM-26754 RET Antenna Data Loss is
reported, the configuration files have been lost. In such a case, you can run the DLD
RETCFGDATA command to reload configuration files for the AAS module. Note that
this command applies only to eGBTSs/NodeBs/eNodeBs.
l Antenna calibration
After an AAS module with passive antennas is installed, run the CLB RET command on
the eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB LMT to calibrate the antennas. During the calibration, RCUs
adjust the antennas within the downtilt range until the antennas operate properly. If the
calibration fails, ALM-26753 RET Antenna Not Calibrated is generated.
NOTE
After the AAS module is reset or powered off, it does not need to be calibrated again.
l Downtilt setting
After the AAS module is calibrated, run the DSP RETDEVICEDATA command on the
eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB LMT to query the supported downtilt range. Then, run the
MOD RETSUBUNIT command to set the downtilts for RET subunits. Because setting
RET subunit downtilt affects the coverage of the related antennas, specify parameters
based on the engineering design.
NOTE
In an AAS module with passive antennas, the base station can download software and reset
the RCU for each RCU separately.
l RCU software download
Run the DLD ALDSW command on the eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB LMT to download the
RCU software provided by Huawei. For details, see AAS-related documents provided by
Huawei.
l RCU reset
Run the RST ALD command on the eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB LMT to reset an RCU.
RCU reset does not change the antenna's downtilt.

Type recommended values, see Table 8-16.
NOTE
When an RF port except ANT_A is used as a control port, common ALD parameters are named in the
following ways:
l For a GBTS, common ALD parameters are named by analogy based on Table 7-2. For example,
when ANT_B is used as the control port, ANT_B ALD Power Switch is the correct parameter name
l For an eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT base station, common ALD parameters are named in
the same way as those listed in Table 7-2.
Other ALD-related parameters, except the RF module common parameters, must be set only
in one mode of the separate-MPT base station. Choose one from the modes that manage the
RRU or RFU providing power and OOK signals for the ALD. Then, configure all data for the
ALD only in this mode.
NOTE
l The mode in which the other ALD-related parameters are set must be the same in the data
preparation, initial configuration, activation observation, and reconfiguration.
l Only one maintenance link can be established between the RRU or RFU and the ALDs. Therefore,
ALD data can be configured only in one mode of a multimode base station. If ALD data is
configured in two modes in this multimode base station, unexpected faults will occur. For example,
ALDs cannot be scanned, or ALM-26541 ALD Maintenance Link Failure is reported. If such faults
occur, remove the ALD data configuration in both modes, and scan and configure the ALDs in the
correct mode. If ALDs cannot be scanned after the ALD data configuration is removed, turn off the
power switches in both modes, and set the power switches and current alarm thresholds in both
modes again.
then prepare all ALD data in the mode. For details, see the following data preparation
sections:
l eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB: section 8.4.2 Data Preparation.
l GBTS: section 9.4.2 Data Preparation.
Before you set other ALD-related parameters, set the RF module common parameters listed in
Table 7-2 to consistent values for all modes that manage the RRU or RFU. If ALD power
supply switches are turned on for the modes managing the RRU or RFU and current alarm
threshold configurations are inconsistent for these modes, ALM-26272 Inter-System RF Unit
Parameter Settings Conflict will be reported.
The RRU or RFU managed by multiple modes can supply power to ALDs only if the ALD power
switches are turned on for all modes that manage the multi-mode RRU or RFU. The ALD can be
scanned only after the power supply is normal.
The RETPORT and ANTENNAPORT switches on one RRU cannot be turned on simultaneously.
Then, select one of the modes that manage the RRU or RFU and set the other ALD-related
parameters in this mode. For example, if the RRU or RFU is managed by the GBTS and
NodeB, set the other ALD-related parameters on the GBTS or NodeB side. The configuration
procedure is the same as that for the related mode.

8.4.3 Precautions
This section describes precautions of configuring ALD data, running a command for scanning
ALDs, setting the current alarm threshold type for ALD data.
l Pay attention to the following restrictions when configuring ALD data:
– The RETPORT and ANTENNAPORT switches on one RRU cannot be turned on
simultaneously.
– ALD scanning, calibration, downtilt setting, software download, and configuration
file download cannot be performed simultaneously on ALDs.
– The common TMA does not support the AISG protocol. To configure a common
TMA for an eGBTS/NodeB/eNodeB, run the MOD ANTENNAPORT command
on the NodeB or eNodeB LMT to turn on the power switch and set current alarm
thresholds. (For data preparation details, see Table 8-6.) Then, run the MOD
RXBRANCH command to configure the RX channel attenuation based on the
engineering design. (For data preparation details, see Table 8-9.)
– The AISG1.1-based twin TMAs consist of two internal TMAs and perform the
same functions as the two subunits of an AISG2.0-based TMA. The AISG1.1-based
twin TMAs can be configured as two devices, each configured with one subunit. In
this case, batch loading of the TMA software may fail on one of the devices. The
AISG1.1-based twin TMAs can also be configured as one device, which is
configured with two subunits. In this case, the serial number cannot be configured
for the TMA. Otherwise, only one subunit is operational. When an RRU with four
ports is connected to multiple TMAs, the twin TMAs must be configured as two
devices and each configured with one subunit if the AISG1.1-based twin TMAs are
used.
– ALDs are automatically scanned when an RET antenna or TMA is added.
– ALDs are automatically scanned after an RRU or RFU is reset.
l Pay attention to the following restrictions when scanning ALDs:
– ALDs are scanned based on control link connections. The scanned result shows the
ALDs physically connected to the base station, which is not affected by ALD data
configuration.

Table 9-8 describes the parameters that must be set to enable the RET function.
For details about key parameters related to the RET antenna, RET antenna downtilt, and RET
device data, see Table 9-2, Table 8-4, and Table 8-5.
9.4.3 Precautions
Section 8.4.3 Precautions describes the common precautions for GBTS and eGBTS/NodeB/
eNodeB.
The common TMA does not support the AISG protocol. To configure a common TMA, you
only need to run the SET BTSRXUBP command to turn on the power switch, set current
alarm thresholds, and configure the RX channel attenuation based on the network plan. For
data preparation details for turning on the power switch and setting the current alarm
thresholds, see Table 9-3. For data preparation details for configuring the RX channel
attenuation, see Table 9-5.
After subunits are added to an AISG1.1-based TMA, all TMA subunits start to work only
after you run the STR BTSALDSCAN command.
Use the values provided in Table 9-9 and Table 9-10 to set the current alarm threshold type
for the control port.
When the current alarm threshold type is user-defined, set current alarm thresholds based on
the actual ALD type. Pay attention to the following restrictions:
l User-defined current alarm thresholds must meet the requirements: Under Current Occur
Threshold < Under Current Clear Threshold < Over Current Clear Threshold < Over
Current Occur Threshold.
l Generally, the Under Current Occur Threshold is set to 20% to 30% of the device rated
operating current, and the Under Current Clear Threshold is set to about 20 mA greater
than the Under Current Occur Threshold. The Over Current Occur Threshold is set to
150% to 200% of the device rated operating current, and the Over Current Clear
Threshold is set to about 50 mA less than the Over Current Occur Threshold.
l If RET antennas are connected in a non-regular scenario, the Under Current Occur
Threshold is set to 20% to 30% of the total rated current of all ALDs controlled by the
RRU. The Over Current Occur Threshold is set to a value that is 150% to 200% of the
total rated current of all ALDs controlled by the RRU.
l If the configured ALD model is not recommended by Huawei, the Under Current Occur
Threshold is set to 20% to 30% of the total rated current of all ALDs controlled by the
RRU. The Over Current Occur Threshold is set to 150% to 200% of the total rated
current of all ALDs controlled by the RRU.
l There are three user-define types for GBTSs: UER_SELF_DEFINE1,
UER_SELF_DEFINE2, and UER_SELF_DEFINE3. Generally, the value is
UER_SELF_DEFINE1.
