Network Architecture
About This Chapter

Radio access network (RAN) consists of the RAN physical layer and RAN logical layer.
l
The RAN physical layer consists of physical devices in a base station and base station
controller. Base station devices communicate with base station controller devices through
the transport network.
The RAN logical layer consists of logical functions implemented on a base station and base
station controller. Base station logical functions communicate with base station controller
logical functions through interface protocols.

The RAN physical layer consists of BTS nodes, BSC nodes, and the transport network that
connects BTS and BSC nodes.
2.2 BTS in the RAN Logical Layer
The RAN logical layer is classified into the GBSS, UTRAN, and E-UTRAN according to
protocols used by each network. The RAN logical layer consists of logical functions
implemented on base stations and base station controllers. Logical functions of base stations
include GBTS Service, NodeB Service, and eNodeB Service. Logical functions of base station
controllers include GBSC Service and RNC Service. GBSS is short for GSM base station system,
UTRAN is short for universal terrestrial radio access network, and E-UTRAN is short for
evolved universal terrestrial radio access network.
2.3 Mapping of a BTS in the RAN Physical Layer and RAN Logical Layer
The logical functions of a base station are deployed on physical devices. One physical device
can be deployed with one or several logical functions.

The RAN physical layer consists of BTS nodes, BSC nodes, and the transport network that
connects BTS and BSC nodes.
The following figure shows the position of BTS nodes in the RAN physical layer.
Figure 2-1 BTS nodes in the RAN physical layer
UE: user equipment
BTS Node: a physical base station BSC Node: a physical base station
controller
MME: mobility management entity S-GW: serving gateway
BTS Node: provides the infrastructure and application platform for a base station to deploy
GBTS Service, NodeB Service, and eNodeB Service. BTS nodes are classified into singlemodeand multi-mode base stations based on the types and quantity of services deployed.
BSC Node: provides GBSC Service or RNC Service.
Transport network: forwards data between BTS nodes and BSC nodes, between BTS nodes
and the operation and maintenance center (OMC). Multiple modes can share one transport
network or use an independent transport network.

Figure 2-5 Mapping of a BTS in the RAN physical layer and RAN logical layer
The red, green, and blue lines in the preceding figure indicate the deployment of services for
each base station on each BTS node. BTS nodes are classified into single-mode and multi-mode
base stations based on the types and quantity of deployed services.
l
BTS Node 1 is deployed with GBTS services only. Therefore, BTS Node 1 is a GSM-only
base station.
BTS Node 2 is deployed with NodeB and eNodeB services. Therefore, BTS Node 2 is a
UL dual-mode base station.
BTS Node 3 is deployed with GBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB services. Therefore, BTS Node
3 is a GUL triple-mode base station.

3.2 BTS Functional Structure

BTS functional structure consists of BTS nodes, GBTS Service, NodeB Service, and eNodeB
Service.
The following figure shows the functional structure of a BTS.
Figure 3-2 BTS functional structure
BTS nodes use abstract resources and a unified interface design. In this case, software and
hardware differences are shielded and each Service can be flexibly deployed on each type of
resources. As a result, resources can be flexibly shared and allocated among each type of Service.

3 Logical Structure
BTS Node: for details about the functions of a BTS node, see 2.1 BTS in the RAN Physical
Layer.
GBTS Service, NodeB Service, and eNodeB Service: for details about the functions of GBTS
Service, NodeB Service, and eNodeB Service, see 2.2 BTS in the RAN Logical Layer.
Itf_Platform-Service: service control interface provided by BTS nodes, including the service
deployment interface, version upgrade interface, starting and restarting interface, and status
monitoring interface.
Itf_Node-RAT: interface provided by BTS nodes to control the common resources in a base
station, including resource application, releasing, activation, and reconfiguration interfaces.
Common resources in a base station include transmission resources, carrier resource, and
universal resources such as SCTP links, RF TX and RX channels, and CPU progress. SCTP is
short for Signaling Control Transmission Protocol.
3.3 Deployment of 3900 Series Base Stations

3900 series base stations can be deployed as separate-MPT or co-MPT base stations.
3.3.1 Co-MPT Base Stations

In a co-MPT 3900 series base station, all the services are deployed on one BTS node and managed
by the operation and maintenance center (OMC) through one O&M channel.
The following figure shows a 3900 series base station with co-MPT.
Figure 3-3 3900 series base stations with co-MPT
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

22

3 Logical Structure
In a co-MPT base station, the BTS node manages the software and hardware platforms.
Resources can be shared or used independently for each Service to achieve flexible resource
scheduling and allocation. This facilitates the evolution of multimode base stations.
In a co-MPT base station, different modes can be flexibly combined to implement GSM, UMTS,
LTE FDD, and LTE TDD single-mode base stations, GU, GL, and UL dual-mode base stations,
GUL triple-mode base stations, and GULT four-mode base stations.
NOTICE
If operations that affect services are performed on the shared resources, services of modes that
share these resources will be affected. These operations include parameter adjustments, resets,
board additions and removals, power-off, blocking, loopbacks, offline tests, offline performance
tests, and software upgrades and rollbacks.
3.3.2 Separate-MPT Base Stations

In a separate-MPT 3900 series base station, services of each mode are deployed on its own BTS
node and managed by the operation and maintenance center (OMC) through its own O&M
channel.
The following figure shows a 3900 series base station with separate-MPT.
Figure 3-4 3900 series base station with separate-MPT
3900 GSM: 3900 series base stations

deployed only with GBTS Service
3900 WCDMA: 3900 series base stations

deployed only with NodeB Service
3900 LTE: 3900 series base stations deployed

only with eNodeB Service
In a separate-MPT base station, each mode has an independent software platform and an
independent hardware platform. However, these modes can still share part of the resources, such
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

23

3 Logical Structure
as site devices, cabinets, the BBU, transmission resources, clocks, RF modules, and the antenna
system. The more the resources are shared, the more each Service depends on each other. The
less the resources are shared, the less each Service depends on each other. The BTS nodes
communicate with each other through the Itf_RBS_MRI interface to negotiate how to allocate
shared resources and prevent resource conflicts.
In a separate-MPT base station, the four modes can be flexibly combined to implement GSM,
UMTS, LTE FDD, and LTE TDD single-mode base stations, GU, GL, and UL dual-mode base
stations, GUL triple-mode base stations, and GULT four-mode base stations.
Different Deployment of GBTS Service

GBTS Service can be deployed in two ways: 3900 GSM and 3900 (Co-MPT). The following
figure shows the differences between 3900 GSM and 3900 (Co-MPT).
Figure 3-5 Differences between 3900 GSM and 3900 (Co-MPT)
3900 GSM: The base stations are managed by the OMC through the O&M interface on the BSC.
The BSC together with the base stations under this BSC are displayed as an independent NE on
the OMC interface. The base stations are not independent NEs.
3900 (Co-MPT): The base stations are directly managed by the OMC and function as
independent NEs. The base stations now independently manage changes in product forms,
hardware configuration, networking capability and specifications of RF modules. Moreover,
GSM, UMTS, and LTE base stations have unified O&M methods. This facilitates the evolution
of multimode base stations.
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

3 Logical Structure
Special Type of Separate-MPT 3900 Series Base Stations

If UMTS and LTE services are to be deployed in a 3900 GSM base station, the following special
type of separate-MPT base stations can be used to achieve high service integration through coMPT without changing the existing base stations.
Figure 3-6 Special type of separate-MPT 3900 series base stations
Management Method of Shared Resources

In a separate-MPT multimode base station where multiple modes share resources, the shared
resources must be managed.
There are two methods of managing the shared resources:
l
Unilateral management: The shared resources are managed by only one mode.
Multilateral management: The shared resources are collectively managed by multiple

modes.
NOTICE
If operations that affect services are performed on the shared resources, services of modes that
share these resources will be affected. These operations include parameter adjustments, resets,
board additions and removals, power-off, blocking, loopbacks, offline tests, offline performance
tests, and software upgrades and rollbacks.
The following table lists differences between unilateral management and multilateral
management.
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

25

3 Logical Structure
Table 3-1 Differences between unilateral management and multilateral management

Function
Unilateral Management
Multilateral Management
Configuration
management
Only one mode is configured with

resource sharing parameters.
Other modes can use the shared
resources without being
configured.
Multiple modes are configured with

resource sharing parameters and these
parameters must have consistent
configurations to prevent resource
conflicts. The multi-node OMC
configuration tool can automatically
associate with the shared resources to
ensure consistent parameter
configuration.
Fault
management
Only one mode reports, locates,

and clears alarms related to the
shared resources. Other modes
report alarms related to resources
that depend on the shared
resources.
Multiple modes report alarms related

to the shared resources. On the multinode OMC alarm management tool,
the O&M personnel can specify a mode
to locate and clear the reported alarms
while alarms reported by other modes
are shielded.
Performance
management
Only one mode reports

performance measurement results
of the shared resources.
Multiple modes report performance

measurement results of the shared
resources.
Software
management
Only one mode manages the

resource sharing software.
Multiple modes manage the resource

sharing software. The O&M personnel
can grant loading control rights to one
mode to perform software upgrades
and rollback. Loading control rights
can be automatically configured by the
multi-node OMC software
management tool if the base station
uses Huawei standard version
mapping. Loading control rights must
be manually configured if the base
station uses non-standard Huawei
version mapping.
Inventory
management
Only one mode reports the

inventory information about the
shared resources.
Multiple modes report the inventory

information about the shared
resources. The multi-node OMC
software management tool can
automatically associate with the
inventory information about the shared
resources.
When unilateral management is used, the user can specify a mode to manage the shared resources
based on site situations. For example:
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

26

3 Logical Structure
Newly deployed base stations: GSM has the highest management priority, UMTS has the
medium management priority, and LTE has the lowest management priority. For example,
in a GU base station, it is recommended that GSM manage the shared resources.
Capacity expansion: The existing mode manages the shared resources. For example, during
an evolution from GSM to GU, it is recommended that GSM manage the shared resources.
The management method varies according to different types of shared resources. The following
table lists the management method for different types of shared resources.
Table 3-2 Method for managing different types of shared resources
Shared
Resources
Management Method
Site devices
Unilateral management: Site devices are managed by one mode in the

BBU to which the site devices are connected
Cabinets
Unilateral management: If a cabinet is connected to a BBU, the

monitoring system of this cabinet is monitored by one mode in this BBU.
The monitoring system includes the power monitoring unit (PMU),
temperature control unit (TCU), cabinet control unit (CCU), fan
monitoring unit (FMU), and environment monitoring unit (EMU). If a
cabinet is connected to a BBU through the radio remote units (RRUs), the
monitoring system of this cabinet is managed by one mode the RRUs
serve.
NOTE
l When monitoring boards are managed by only one mode, the following
functions cannot be enabled: Energy Saving, Smart TRX, and controlling fan
speed by the main control board.
l The CCU can only be managed by one mode.
BBU3900
subrack
Multilateral management: The UPEU, UEIU, and FAN are managed

collectively by all modes in the BBU. UPEU is short for universal power
and environment interface unit. The UEIU is short for universal
environment interface unit.
Multimode RF
modules
Multilateral management: Multimode RF modules are managed by the

modes that the multimode RF modules serve.
For example, a multimode RF module working in GU mode is managed
collectively by a GBTS and a NodeB.
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)
ALD
Unilateral management: The ALD is managed by one mode whose RF

modules are connected to the ALD. ALD is short for antenna line device.
BBU
interconnection
module
Unilateral management: BBU interconnection modules are managed by

one mode that shares one BBU with this BBU interconnection module
Transmission
resources
Unilateral management: When multiple modes share the transmission

ports and bandwidth, the transmission ports and the board that provides
transmission ports are managed by one mode in the BBU.

Management Method
Clock
Unilateral management: When multiple modes share one external clock

source, the clock source is managed by one mode in the BBU.
CPRI links
Unilateral management: When multiple modes share a CPRI link, the

CPRI link is managed by the mode whose baseband board provides CPRI
ports.

The maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by an eNodeB can be

calculated using the following formula:
Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by an eNodeB = Min
(Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by the main control board,
Maximum number of UEs in RRC_Connected mode supported by BBP boards)
The main control board is the LMPT or UMPT and the BBP boards are the LBBP or UBBP
boards.

enabled with the virtual antenna mapping (VAM) function are connected to two RF modules
carried on different CPRI links.
NOTE
In a GU dual-mode base station where the GTMU is connected to port on the WMPT or UMPT through
ports on their panels, part of CPRI bandwidth of UMTS mode is reserved for a TX and an RX channel of
GSM mode in case that bandwidths of GSM mode are insufficient. As a result, the number of cells supported
by UMTS mode is reduced.

l CPRI compression is not supported when the cell bandwidth is 5 MHz.
l The LBBPc does not support CPRI compression.
l If the CPRI extension switch is turned on, carrier specifications supported by the LBBPd
with a data rate of 9.8 Gbit/s are affected only when CPRI compression is used. For details
about the CPRI extension switch, see the CPRIEX parameter in the MOD BBP or LST
BBP command. When the CPRI extension switch is turned on, only the CPRI0, CPRI1,
and CPRI2 ports on the LBBPd can be used.

The preceding table lists the maximum numbers of cells and antennas supported by each CPRI link with
a corresponding CPRI port rate. In combined RF module scenarios, the CPRI port rate is determined by
the actual numbers of cells and antennas carried by each CPRI link.

The maximum output power of the RF module in S1 configuration is 60 W. To achieve the maximum
output power, you need to buy a license.
After design optimization, the 8 phase shift keying (8PSK) and Gaussian minimum shift-frequency
keying (GMSK) modulation schemes enable the same output power for each carrier on the the RF
module when the S1, S2, or S3 configuration is used.
When the S4, S5, or S6 configuration is used, the license controlling the GBFD-118104 Enhanced
EDGE Coverage feature must be obtained. Otherwise, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes
cannot enable the same output power for each carrier on the RF module.

l EF MSR indicates that E and F data is carried on the same transmit channel of an RF module.
l The GSM receiver sensitivity is measured, as recommended in 3GPP TS 51.021, over the central band at
the antenna connector on condition that the channel rate reaches 13 kbit/s and the bit error rate (BER) does
not exceed 2%. The central band is the 80% of the full band.
l The MRFU that works in GSM mode and operates in the 900 or 1800 MHz frequency band complies with
the EN 301 502 V9.2.1 standard. The MRFU that works in GSM mode and operates in the 850 or 1900 MHz
frequency band complies with the 3GPP TS 45.005 V10.2.0 and 3GPP TS 51.021 V10.2.0 standards.
l The MRFU that works in UMTS, LTE FDD, or multiple service ring (MSR) mode and operates in the 900
or 1800 MHz frequency band complies with the ETSI EN 301 908 V5.2.1 and 3GPP TS 37.104 standards.
The MRFU that works in UMTS, LTE FDD, or MSR mode and operates in the 850 or 1900 MHz frequency
band complies with the 3GPP TS 37.104 V10.4.0 and TS 37.141 V10.4.0 standards.

NOTE
l If the power sharing feature is activated, assume that UEs in a cell are randomly located.
l If the RF module is placed at an altitude of 3500 to 4500 meters, its power reduces by 1 dB. If the RF module
is placed at an altitude of 4500 to 6000 meters, its power reduces by 2 dB.
l Station spacing, frequency multiplexing factor, power control algorithm, and traffic model all affect the
gains of dynamic power sharing. In most cases, network plans are designed on the basis of power
specifications of dynamic power sharing.
l Before activating the dynamic power sharing feature, enable the DTX and power control functions. In
GBSS8.1, the dynamic power sharing feature is mutually exclusive with the GBFD-113201 Concentric Cell,
GBFD-114501 Co-BCCH Cell, GBFD-118001 BCCH Dense Frequency Multiplexing, and GBFD-117501
Enhanced Measurement Report (EMR) features. In GBSS9.0 and later versions, the dynamic power sharing
feature can be used together with these features. However, the dynamic power sharing feature currently
cannot be used together with the GBFD-117002 IBCA (Interference Based Channel Allocation),
GBFD-117001 Flex MAIO, GBFD-118701 RAN Sharing, and GBFD-114001 Extended Cell features in
GBSS8.1, GBSS9.0, and later versions.
l For the MRFU working in GSM mode: The maximum output power of the RF module in S1 configuration
is 60 W. To achieve the maximum output power, you need to buy a license.
l For the MRFU V2/MRFU V2a working in GSM mode and operating in the 900 MHz frequency band: After
design optimization, the 8 phase shift keying (8PSK) and Gaussian minimum shift-frequency keying
(GMSK) modulation schemes enable the same output power for each carrier on the the RF module when
the S1, S2, or S3 configuration is used. When the S4, S5, or S6 configuration is used, the license controlling
the GBFD-118104 Enhanced EDGE Coverage feature must be obtained. Otherwise, the 8PSK and GMSK
modulation schemes cannot enable the same output power for each carrier on the RF module.
l For the MRFU V2/MRFU V2a working in GSM mode and operating in the 1800 MHz frequency band:
When the S4, S5, or S6 configuration is used, the license controlling the GBFD-118104 Enhanced EDGE
Coverage feature must be obtained. Otherwise, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes cannot enable
the same output power for each carrier on the RF module.

NOTE
l For the MRFUd working in GSM mode: when the S1 or S2 configuration is applied, the maximum output
power of each carrier on the MRFUd is 80 W. If the output power of 60 W or 80 W is required, the related
license must be obtained. After design optimization, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes enable the
same output power for each carrier on the MRFUd when any of the S1 through S6 configurations is used.
When the S7 or S8 configuration is used, the license controlling the GBFD-118104 Enhanced EDGE
Coverage feature must be obtained. Otherwise, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes cannot enable
the same output power for each carrier on the MRFUd.

NOTE
In SRAN6.0, when an MRFUe works in GL mode and is configured with two LTE FDD carriers, each
carrier can use 1.4 MHz, 3 MHz, 5 MHz, or 10 MHz bandwidth. In SRAN7.0, when an MRFUe works in
GL mode and is configured with two LTE FDD carriers, only one carrier can use 15 MHz or larger
bandwidth.

NOTE
l For the RRU3926 working in GSM mode: when the S1 configuration is applied, the maximum output power
of each carrier on the RRU3926 is 80 W. If the output power of 60 W or 80 W is required, the related license
must be obtained. After design optimization, the 8 phase shift keying (8PSK) and Gaussian minimum shiftfrequency keying (GMSK) modulation schemes enable the same output power for each carrier on the the
RF module when the S1, S2, or S3 configuration is used. When any of the S4 through S8 configurations is
on the RRU3926.

NOTE
l For the RRU3929 working in GSM mode: when the S1 or S2 configuration is applied, the maximum output
power of each carrier on the RRU3929 is 60 W. If the output power of 60 W is required, the related license
must be obtained.After design optimization, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes enable the same
output power for each carrier on the RF module when any of the S1 through S6 configurations is used. When
the S7 or S8 configuration is used, the license controlling the GBFD-118104 Enhanced EDGE Coverage
feature must be obtained. Otherwise, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes cannot enable the same
output power for each carrier on the RF module..

l For the RRU3939 working in GSM mode: when the S1 or S2 configuration is applied, the maximum output
power of each carrier on the RRU3939 is 60 W. If the output power of 60 W is required, the related license
must be obtained.After design optimization, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes enable the same
output power for each carrier on the RF module.

NOTE
of each carrier on the RRU3942 is 80 W; when the S2 configuration is applied, the maximum output power
must be obtained. After design optimization, the 8PSK and GMSK modulation schemes enable the same
output power for each carrier on the RF module..
l The RRU3942 supports 2 x 60 W or 40 W + 80 W configuration. The "40 W + 80 W" configuration does
not apply to typical scenarios. When this configuration is used, only power of channel B can be 80 W.

NOTE
l The output power of an RRU3256 working at 3500 MHz varies with the factors such as uplink-downlink
subframe configuration, filter insertion loss, and carrier configuration (contiguous or non-contiguous
carriers). When the frequency spacing between carriers is greater than 80 MHz, the rated output power of
RF channels must be decreased.

6 Reliability
Reliability
3900 series base stations adopt a platform design so that hardware can be shared on this platform.
This provides mature communications technologies and stable transmission reliability.
System Reliability
3900 series base stations feature a reliability design with load sharing and redundancy
configuration, optimized fault detection and isolation technologies for boards and the system.
This greatly enhances system reliability.
l
Redundancy configuration
Units such as the power supply unit all support redundancy configuration.
CPRI ports that connect the BBU and RF modules support the ring topology. When one
CPRI link becomes faulty, services are automatically switched over to the other CPRI
link.
Key files such as software versions and data configuration files all support redundancy
backup.
Reliability
The system automatically detects and diagnoses faults in the software, hardware, and
environment, and reports alarms. Then the system automatically clears the faults using selfhealing measures. If the faults cannot be cleared, the faulty units will be automatically
isolated.
Hardware Reliability
l
Anti-misinsertion of boards
When a board is mistakenly inserted into the slot of another board, this board cannot be
connected to the backplane, and in this way, the equipment is free from damage.
Overtemperature protection
When the temperature near the power amplifier (PA) in an RF module is too high, the base
station reports an over-temperature alarm and immediately shuts down the PA. This
function protects the PA from damage caused by over-temperature.
Reliable power supply

Wide voltage range and surge protection
Issue 05 (2014-08-30)

662

6 Reliability
Power failure protection for programs and data

Protection of power supply against overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection of
positive and negative poles on boards
l
All-round surge protection design

Surge protection is provided for AC and DC power sockets, input and output signal ports
(E1/T1 port, FE/GE ports, interconnection ports, and Boolean alarm port), antenna
connectors, and GPS ports. GPS is short for Global Positioning System.
Software Reliability
l
Redundancy backup
The system stores important files or data such as software versions and data configuration
files to ensure normal operation of the system when errors occur in these files or data.
Software versions: The system stores software versions. If the current version is
abnormal, the system switches over to the backup version, which ensures normal
operation of the base station.
Data configuration files: The system stores data configuration files in different
partitions. If the current file is damaged, the base station can continue working properly
by loading the backup file.
Error tolerance
When software errors occur, the system can still work due to its self-healing and error
tolerance capabilities, which are supported by the following functions:
Scheduled check of key resources: The system checks software resource usage
periodically. If resources cannot be released because of software errors, the system can
release the occupied resources in time and export logs and alarms.
Task monitoring: When software is running, monitoring processes check for internal
software faults or certain hardware faults. If an error occurs in a task, an alarm is reported
and self-healing measures are taken to restore the task.
Data verification: The system performs scheduled or event-driven data consistency
check, restores data selectively or preferably, and generates logs and alarms.
Watchdog: When a software error occurs, the base station system detects the error using
the software and hardware watchdogs and automatically resets.
