The asterisk (*) in the preceding table indicates the bandwidth that can be
achieved when no PIM3 products of TX signals fall in the RX frequency bands.
When the RX and TX signals of the RRU5512 (700 MHz+850 MHz) are configured
on the same port:
● If the PIM3CFGSW parameter is set to OFF, the configurations of the cell
whose TX signals' PIM3 products fall in the RX frequency bands cannot take
effect.
● If the PIM3CFGSW parameter is set to ON, the configurations of the cell
whose TX signals' PIM3 products fall in the RX frequency bands can take
effect.
When the RX and TX signals are configured on different ports, the TX signals'
PIM3 products will not fall in the RX frequency bands. In this case, the RRU5512
supports a maximum of 2T2R. The configurations are as follows:
● RRU5512 (700 MHz): 2T is configured on RF ports A and B, and 2R is
configured on RF ports C and D.
● RRU5512 (850 MHz): 2T is configured on RF ports C and D, and 2R is
configured on RF ports A and B.
NOTE
● An RRU5512 (700 MHz+850 MHz) can work in the 700 MHz frequency band, 850 MHz
frequency band, or both frequency bands.
● When the RRU5512 works in one frequency band, frequency band is used to indicate the
band. When the RRU5512 works in multiple frequency bands at the same time,
frequency band 1+frequency band 2 is used to indicate the bands. For example,
RRU5512 (700 MHz+850 MHz).

a: ATBR in the TX/RX Mode column indicates that the RF module uses A
transmit channels and B receive channels.
b: The carrier quantity listed in the Capacity column is the maximum number of
carriers that can be configured for the module working in a single mode. For
details about the carrier combinations for the module working in multiple
modes, see Output Power Configuration in the following table.

NOTE
● The NB-IoT multi-carrier function is an NB-IoT multi-carrier transmission technology

introduced based on 3GPP Release 13. An NB-IoT cell can have multiple carriers and
assigns UEs to multiple carriers to increase cell capacity. For details about this function
and related parameter settings, see NB-IoT Enhancements (FDD) in the eRAN FDD
Feature Documentation.
● The bandwidth information in Supported Bandwidth is the standard bandwidth that
can be configured for a single-mode carrier when only one carrier is configured. In any
carrier combination scenario, the total bandwidth of all carriers cannot exceed the IBW
value. For details about the bandwidth that can be configured for each carrier in each
carrier combination scenario, see Output Power Configuration in the following table.
For details about the non-standard bandwidths that can be configured for LTE FDD
carriers, see Compact Bandwidth (FDD).

channel is C W.
When the RRU5512 works on both 700 MHz and 850 MHz, the total output power
of single-band carriers on a single channel cannot exceed 60 W and that of dual-
band carriers on a single channel cannot exceed 80 W.
NOTE
● The Typical Power Configurations document includes the configurable carrier

combinations and the output power of each carrier in each combination. Before
referring to this document, you must be familiar with the output power configuration
rules. For details, see 4 RF Output Power Configuration Rules.
● Each value of Output Power per Carrier (W) in the Typical Power Configurations
document indicates the maximum output power of each carrier under the
corresponding configuration while ensuring the network performance. The actually
configured carrier power of RF modules can be less than or equal to the value of
Output Power per Carrier (W) in the document. The power configuration that is not
supported in the document may be configurable on the software. Huawei can only
promise the performance with the power configurations listed in the document.

RRU5512
Technical Specifications 4 RF Output Power Configuration Rules
4 RF Output Power Configuration Rules
This chapter describes the rules for configuring RF output power.
General Rules
● For an nT RF module (n is 2, 4, or 8), the restriction is as follows:
, where PAi indicates the number of carriers of transmit

channel i; Pi indicates the output power of each carrier of transmit channel i;
PAt indicates the total number of carriers configured in this RF module; P
indicates the maximum output power supported by each carrier.
● The output power is 1 dB less than the standard power when an RF module is
located at a height of 3500 m (11482.80 ft.) to 4500 m (14763.60 ft.); and is
2 dB less than the standard power when the RF module is located at a height
of 4500 m (14763.60 ft.) to 6000 m (19684.80 ft.).
GSM Output Power Configuration Rules

● If the output power per carrier on a single channel is required to be 60 W, the
corresponding power license item must be purchased.
● Before using the GSM power sharing function, ensure that the license item
"Resource-BSC6900-LGMIDPS-Dynamic Power Sharing (per TRX)" has been
purchased. To enable the power sharing function, run the SET
GCELLCHMGAD command with QTRUPWRSHARE set to DYNAMIC and
MultiGSMDynPWShareSW set to ON.
● For the GBTS and eGBTS, the output power per carrier of the same RF module
is the same. However, the unit of the output power per carrier is W for the
GBTS and dBm for the eGBTS. The conversion relationship between unit W
and unit dBm is as follows: dBm = 10log(1000 W, 10). For example, when an
RRU works in GSM mode, the output power per carrier that can be configured
for the GBTS is 60 W (GMSK). Then, the output power per carrier that can be
configured for the eGBTS is 10log(1000x60, 10), which is rounded off to 47.8
dBm (GMSK).
● The following table lists the available power configurations for each GSM
carrier.

UMTS Output Power Configuration Rules

The standard bandwidth per UMTS carrier is 5 MHz.
LTE FDD Output Power Configuration Rules

When two LTE FDD carriers are configured, it is recommended that the power
spectral density (PSD) of the two carriers be set to the same value. PSD = Carrier
output power/Carrier bandwidth (1.4 MHz and 3 MHz bandwidths are considered
as 5 MHz bandwidth in this formula.)
LTE NB-IoT Output Power Configuration Rules

● The formulas for calculating the minimum NB-IoT power per PA for an RF
module are as follows:
– When an NB-IoT cell works in guardband or in-band mode, the minimum
NB-IoT power per PA for an RF module is equal to the rated total power
per PA divided by 10000. When an NB-IoT cell works in standalone mode,
the minimum NB-IoT power per PA for an RF module is equal to the
rated total power per PA divided by 100.
– For example, the maximum output power of an RRU is 2x60 W. The
minimum NB-IoT power per PA for the RRU when NB-IoT cells work in
standalone mode is equal to 0.6 W (60 W/100).
● In standalone mode, the bandwidth spacing between two NB-IoT carriers
must be less than or equal to 300 kHz.
● When the LTE bandwidth is 5 MHz, LTE NB-IoT cells cannot be deployed in
guardband mode.
● After the NB-IoT multi-carrier function is enabled, one NB-IoT multi-carrier
cell can be configured with multiple NB-IoT carriers.
– When an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell is configured in standalone mode, a
maximum of four NB-IoT carriers can be configured.
– When an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell is configured in in-band mode and the
LTE bandwidth is 5 MHz, a maximum of four NB-IoT carriers can be
configured. If the LTE bandwidth is 10/15/20 MHz, a maximum of eight
NB-IoT carriers can be configured for an NB-IoT multi-carrier cell.
– When a cell is configured with multiple NB-IoT carriers, the cell can have
only one anchor carrier but can have multiple non-anchor carriers.

RRU5512
NOTE
The NB-IoT multi-carrier function is an NB-IoT multi-carrier transmission

technology introduced based on 3GPP Release 13. An NB-IoT cell can have
multiple carriers and assigns UEs to multiple carriers to increase cell capacity. For
details about this function and related parameter settings, see NB-IoT
Enhancements (FDD) in the eRAN FDD Feature Documentation.
NR Output Power Configuration Rules

● To ensure the performance of an NR cell, the minimum configurable output
power of the NR cell is equal to the total rated power per PA for an RF
module (unit: W) divided by 16. For example, the maximum output power of
an RRU is 2x80 W. When you configure an NR cell, the minimum configurable
output power of the NR cell is 5 W (80 W/16).
Multimode Output Power Configuration Rules

● GSM, UMTS, and LTE FDD carriers cannot be configured on the same channel
simultaneously in a single frequency band.
● The output power per carrier must be balanced among multiple channels if
possible.
● Non-MSR and MSR
– Non-MSR: Carriers of different RATs cannot be configured on the same
RF channel. For example, a 2T RF module supports GU. If GSM carriers
are configured on PA1, then UMTS carriers cannot be configured on PA1.
That is, UMTS carriers can be configured only on PA2, and GSM carriers
cannot be configured on PA2.
– MSR: Carriers of different RATs can be configured on the same RF
channel. For example, a 2T RF module supports GU. Both GSM carriers
and UMTS carriers can be configured on PA1 or PA2 simultaneously.
● When one LTE FDD carrier and one NR FDD carrier are configured, it is
recommended that the power spectral density (PSD) of the two carriers be set
to the same value. PSD = Carrier output power/Carrier bandwidth (1.4 MHz
and 3 MHz bandwidths are considered as 5 MHz bandwidth in this formula.)
● The GU frequency spacing can be calculated using the following formula: GU
frequency spacing ≥ [(GSM bandwidth/2) + (UMTS bandwidth/2)].
