3.4 Proposed Products Profile


3.4.1 DBS3900 Base Station

The DBS3900 mainly consists of the baseband unit (BBU3910) and the Remote Radio Unit (RRU).
For distributed installation, the RRU can be placed close to the antenna to reduce feeder loss and
improve system coverage, which features small size and high integration to support a zero footprint
solution. When RRU are required to be installed indoor, IFS rack can be easily deployed to hold RRU
and BBU. Both fulfill the requirements of easy, fast installation and network deployment. For indoor

SINGLERAN SOLUTION DESCRIPTION

scenario, one set of DBS3900 can support maximum 18RRUs; for outdoor scenario, one set of
DBS3900 can support maximum 12 RRUs.

The DBS3900 facilitates site acquisition as well as network planning and optimization, and reduces
network deployment time. It enables operators to quickly and efficiently deploy a high-performance
GSM/UMTS/LTE network.

The following figure provides a view of typical deployment scenarios for the DBS3900.

Figure 2: Overview of Deployment Scenarios of DBS3900

1. Multi-mode & High Output Power Radio Frequency Modules (Indosat)

According to INDOSATs requirements and Huawei strategy, RF modules selected are listed below:

HUAWEI TECH.CO.,LTD HUAWEI CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 12 OF 38


SINGLERAN SOLUTION DESCRIPTION

2. Multi-mode & High Output Power Radio Frequency Modules (Indosat Group)

Figure 4: Huawei proposed RRU for Indosat Group

There are two kinds of RRU in GUL configuration for Indosat:

Typical RRU already used in existing network, RRU3929 & RRU3829.

New Blade RRU proposed in optional solution, RRU3936 & RRU3826

RRU can be mounted on a pole, a wall, a stand, or other place near antenna. The operator can also
select other installation modes as required by actual situations. No equipment room or air conditioner
is required because the RRU is passively cooled by natural convective cooling, namely the RRU has
no fans. Field experience has shown that routine maintenance could be kept low because of the highly
reliable operation of the RRU.

3. Single Baseband: BBU3910

The BBU is a small-sized cassette, and can be mounted in any standard cabinet with free space of 19
inches wide and 2U high, which allows the operator fully freely arrange space even only very limited
space is available. The BBU3910 performs the following functions:

Manages the entire base station system in terms of operation, maintenance, and system clock.

Provides physical ports for information exchange between the base station and the transport
network.

Provides an OM channel between the base station and the LMT, SMT, or U2000.

Processes uplink and downlink baseband signals.

Provides CPRI ports for communication with the RF modules.

UBBPd6 is a comprehensive board with GUL and high capacity, normally it will be applied in the
G+U+L scenario due to the cost, if the site configuration is simple, e.g. GSM only, we dont
recommend UBBPd, +UMPT to support GSM, because UBBPd will be only the interface board
connected to RRU. GTMU can be simple configured for GSM only mode.

3.4.2 BSC6910 (GSM/UMTS)

The BSC6910 conforms to the trend of higher capacity and fewer sites, saving equipment room space,
meeting the requirements of rapid service growth and improves return on equipment investment. The
BSC6910 uses new platform of Advanced Radio Controller REV:b (PARCb) and supports a
processing capability of 10 Gbit/s per slot. The BSC6910 in later versions supports the evolution to a
processing capability of 40 Gbit/s to 100 Gbit/s per slot and to a Tera network.

HUAWEI TECH.CO.,LTD HUAWEI CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 14 OF 38


SINGLERAN SOLUTION DESCRIPTION

The BSC6910 introduces a new general processing board: Evolved General Processing Unit (EGPU).
When loaded with different software, the EGPU can be flexibly configured to work in different modes
and process the BSC or RNC control plane and user plane services. All the BSC6910 resources are
designed in the resource pool mode. The BSC6910 resources consist of control plane resources, user
plane resources, and transmission resources. The control plane and user plane resources can be
shared to better adapt to the traffic model changes.

4 Network Design Dimensioning

4.1 UMTS BSC6910 Dimensioning

This section describes how to configure hardware and calculate the number of required licenses
when the BSC6910 works in the UMTS mode.

The main hardware components of the BSC6910 UMTS are service processing units, interface
boards, clock boards, subracks, and cabinets. The following sections describe the hardware
configuration scenarios and configuration methods.

The capacity of UMTS BSC6910 depends on the number of EGPUa boards and the hardware actual
processing capacity in the traffic model. A maximum of 128 EGPUa boards can be configured on the
UMTS BSC6910 with two cabinets, excluding the pair of EGPUa boards fixed for resource
management. The EGPUa board can process services on the control plane (CP) and user plane (UP)
at one time. In Huawei Smartphone traffic model, a maximum of 64,000,000 BHCA can be achieved
on the control plane. In Huawei heavy PS traffic model, the maximum BHCA throughput reaches 120
Gbit/s on the user plane. However the control and user plane cannot reach the maximum value at one
time.

A BSC6910 can be configured with a maximum of two cabinets. A maximum of three subracks can
be configured in each cabinet.

The UMTS dimension is used to measure the network capacity based on the number of users and
traffic model. Counters to measure the network capacity are the BHCA, number of NodeBs/cells,
CS Erlang, PS throughput, and number of active users. The following figure shows the dimensions
that are used for calculating the configurations.

where the control plane is dimensioned by BHCA, number of cells/NodeBs, number of active users,
and number of online users. The user plane is dimensioned by CS Erl, PS throughput, number of
cells, number of active users, and number of online users. Transmission is dimensioned by CS Erl,
PS throughput, number of NodeBs, number of active users, and number of online users.

In a UMTS dimensioning process, the network capacity requirements are calculated based on the
number of users and the traffic model. The input items include the traffic model and total number of
subscribers. The output items include traffic volume, PS throughput, BHCA, number of NodeBs/cells,
active users, and online users.

Refarming is an effective strategy to support Indosat transformation from a voice service provider to a
leading multiservice and mobile broadband provider. Huawei anticipates that the valuable GSM1800
frequency resources could possibly be refarmed in the near future to enable LTE. To fully protect
Indosat investment and ensure flexible network strategy in the future, Huawei have proposed all SDR-
capable RF modules for the existing 2G network modernization. The proposed RRU3929
1800MHz modules support smooth evolution from GSM to LTE1800 by software upgrade.

5.2 RNC in Pool

Figure 10: RNC Pool Architecture

Huawei proposes RNC pool construction of newly-deployed BSC6910 with BSC6900 or without
BSC6900. The RNCs in pool solution can provide Indosat with following benefits:

RNC in Pool Load balancing: RNCs in RNC pool can share the control-plane load and user plane
load. User-plane load sharing is performed together with control-plane load sharing. RNC hardware
capacity may not meet signaling capacity requirements because of the sharp increase in smart
phones. Without this feature, operators must split the RNC when the signaling capacity requirement is
over RNC hardware capacity, which may require complex network reconstruction and affect ongoing
services. With this feature, RNCs in an RNC pool can share the control-plane load and user plane
load. The split of RNC may be avoided and the impact on the network KPIs may be minimized when
the bursting signaling capacity requirement is over RNC hardware capacity.

RNC in Pool Node redundancy: RNCs in an RNC pool can work as backups for each other, thereby
improving the reliability of the network significantly. With this feature, services on a faulty RNC can be
taken over by and resumed on the backup RNC. This increases network reliability. This feature
prevents services from being interrupted when an RNC is faulty. RNCs may fail because of natural
disasters, power outages, and software and hardware faults. Without this feature, all NodeBs under a
faulty RNC will go out of service. This will cause possible huge losses for operators.

6 MBB User Migration

6.1 Main Modules for User Migration

User migration mainly involves two logical modules, Fallback User Analysis and Potential
MBB User Analysis.

Figure 11: User Migration Analysis module

Fallback User Analysis: Users and traffic (mainly PS traffic) fall back from a higher generation
network to a lower generation network. A higher generation network usually works in a high
frequency band, such as UMTS 2100 MHz, LTE 1800 MHz, or LTE 2600 MHz, and coverage
holes exist during the initial deployment of such a network. As a result, a user may fall back to a
lower generation network even if the user subscribes to services of a high generation network.
This affects user experience. Such a fallback may also occur in a higher generation network with
light load or a lower generation network that requires capacity expansion. A specific network
planning is provided based on detailed analysis of fallback.

Below are the three main fallback scenarios in a descending order in terms of analysis
capability:
Users and traffic fall back from 3G to 2G
Users and traffic fall back from 4G to 3G
Users and traffic fall back from 4G to 2G

The current analysis focuses on the proportions of fallback users and traffic, as well as when
and where fallback occurs most. Different measures are adopted according to different
causes.

HUAWEI TECH.CO.,LTD HUAWEI CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 35 OF 38


SINGLERAN SOLUTION DESCRIPTION

Figure 12: fallback scenarios

As shown in the preceding figure, fallback is mainly caused by four reasons. The following
describes the reasons one by one and provides the corresponding measures.

A high generation network is heavily loaded: The fallback can be resolved by


expanding the capacity after evaluating the capacity.

Parameters are incorrectly configured:

A high generation network has poor coverage: The fallback can be resolved by
analyzing the area where coverage needs to be enhanced. This requires an analysis
on weak coverage of the high generation network and a geographical analysis on
the area where fallback occurs most.

Users are locked in a lower generation network: This may be caused by coverage
problems, deteriorating user experience. Current analysis capability is only limited to
coverage analysis.

Potential MBB User Analysis: This module aims at migrating users in a lower generation
network to a higher generation network. The following three steps need to be performed to
achieve this purpose:

Discover target users for migration.

Formulate migration strategies.

Perform network planning.

Step 1 is essential to the entire migration. In this step, you need to categorize users in the
entire network according to their behaviors (that is, MBB migration target user finding). In step
2, you need to formulate corresponding strategies for those categorized users. The following
table lists detailed strategies for specific users.

HUAWEI TECH.CO.,LTD HUAWEI CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 36 OF 38


SINGLERAN SOLUTION DESCRIPTION

User Category Strategy


Others 4G users //
Focus on the impact of 4G fallback users on
4G fallback user 3G networks because 4G users usually have
a great traffic volume.
Others 3G users //
Migrate users to 4G networks as soon as
3G user with 4G terminal
possible.
Replace terminals, and orderly migrate users
3G user with high traffic (> XXX Mbps
from 3G networks to 4G networks to relieve
per day)
the 3G network load.
Migrate users to 3G networks as soon as
2G user with 3G terminal
possible.
Replace terminals, and orderly migrate users
2G user with high traffic (> XX Mbps
from 3G networks to 2G networks to relieve
per day)
the 2G network load.
Replace terminals, and orderly migrate users
2G user with high ARPU
to the 3G networks.
Other 2G users //

In step 3, evaluate whether a network can meet the capacity requirements of users that
migrate to the high generation network. To be specific, evaluate the increase in the number
of 3G users after migration, and then use the evaluation results to forecast requirements of
network capacity. As shown in the following figure, user migration increases the number of
3G users by 14%. (In this case, the user forecast module of the original tool is used.)

In addition, evaluate refarming feasibility for a low generation network based on the migration
situation. The following figure shows an example.
