Dynamic PBT
Dynamic PBT is a mode based on the operation of timeslots, compared with static PBT, it brings the balance between capacity and coverage and does not cause the 50% decrease of capacity. The subscriber occupies a TS under the detection of measure report. When the quality is lower than a threshold, the same No. of TS of the adjacent TRX will be used as the secondary TS by the subscriber to start PBT. (The former subscriber in the secondary TS will handover) When the quality is higher than a threshold, the PBT will be canceled and the secondary TS will be released.

BTS3900 Topologies - Star
The star topology applies to common areas, especially densely populated areas, such as cities.
Advantages
In the star topology, each site is directly connected to the BSC. It has the following features: Easy networking
Easy project implementation

Easy network maintenance Easy network expansion High network reliability
Disadvantages
Compared with other topologies, the star topology requires more transmission cables.
Page85
BTS3900 Topologies - Chain
The chain topology applies to sparsely populated areas in strip-like terrain, such as areas along highways and railway tracks.
Advantages
The chain topology reduces cost in transmission equipment, construction, and transmission link lease.
Disadvantages
As signals pass through many nodes, the transmission reliability in the chain topology is reduced.
The faults in the upper-level BTSs may affect the lower-level BTSs. The number of levels in a chain network should not exceed five.

BTS3900 Topologies - Tree
The tree topology applies to areas where network structures, site distribution, and subscriber distribution are complicated, for example, an area where large-scale coverage overlaps hot spot or small-scale coverage. Advantages
The tree topology requires fewer transmission cables compared with the star topology.
Disadvantages
As signals pass through many nodes, the transmission reliability is reduced. This makes it difficult for maintenance and engineering. The faults in the upper-level BTSs may affect the lower-level BTSs. Capacity expansion is difficult. The number of levels in the tree should not exceed five.
Page87
BTS3900 Topologies - Ring
The ring topology applies to common scenarios. Due to its strong selfhealing capability, the ring topology is preferred if permitted by the routing. Advantages
If there is a breaking point in the ring, the ring breaks into two chains at the breaking point automatically. In this way, the BTSs preceding and following the breaking point can work normally despite the breaking point; thus improving the robustness of the system.
Disadvantages
In the ring topology, there is always a link section that does not transfer data.

DRFU Topologies Configuration
The DRFU supports various network topologies: star, chain, and ring.

Basic Configuration Principles
A single BTS3900/BTS3900A cabinet provides up to 12 carriers with the maximum cell configuration of S4/4/4, and supports the dual-band application. Minimum cost Smooth upgrade of configuration Antenna configuration principles
Minimum number of DRFUs

Minimum number of BBUs Highest reliability Mode of configuring two TRXs in one sector
Page91
RF Configuration Principles

A maximum of three levels of DRFUs can be connected to one BBU. For S4/4/4 cell configuration and lower configurations, the star topology is recommended between the BBU and the DRFU; for the configuration higher than the S4/4/4 cell configuration, the ring topology is recommended between the BBU and the DRFU. Minimum number of antennas. Each sector of the BTS must be configured with the minimum number of antennas. For the 2-antenna receive diversity, each sector has two antenna channels; for the 4-antenna receive diversity, each sector has four antenna channels. Non-combination in the transmit channel. The non-combination configuration is recommended for the DRFU to avoid the power loss in combination and to reduce the power consumption of the BTS. If combination is required, the cavity combiner must be configured outside the DRFU and one combination is recommended.
Page92
Configuration Principles of the BBU
Minimum number of trunk cables. You can determine the number of trunk cables as required, and take the existing configuration for saving transmission resources into account in networking. Minimum number of UPEUs. The configuration of a single UPEU is recommended. The redundancy backup mode can be configured if required.
One BBU supports six CPRI ports. The star topology is recommended between DRFUs.
