into despreading soft decision symbols after access channel searching, access channel demodulation, and dedicated channel demodulation. The signals are then sent to the RNC through the transport subsystem after decoding and FP processing. DL baseband signal processing module
The DL baseband signal processing module consists of the modulation unit and the coding unit. Before sending signals received from the transport subsystem to the optical module, the module sends service data received from the transport subsystem to the Frame Protocol (FP) processor. After FP processing, the module processes the signals through transmission channel mapping, physical channel generating, framing, spreading, demodulating, transmit diversity control, and power control combination. The module finally sends the processed signals to the interface module.
Control Subsystem
The control subsystem manages the entire distributed NodeB. The subsystem performs OM, processes signaling, and provides system clocks. The OM module performs functions such as equipment management, configuration management, alarm management, software management, and commissioning management. The signaling processor performs functions such as the NodeB Application Part (NBAP) signaling processing, the Access Link Control Application Part (ALCAP) processing, the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) processing, and the logical resource management. The clock sources of the NodeB consist of the phase-locked line clock extracted from the Iub interface, the Global Positioning System (GPS) clock, and the external clock such as the Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) clock. The BBU extracts the clock from the Iub interface and provides the clock for the entire NodeB after frequency dividing, phase locking, and phase adjusting in the clock module.

4.1 Advanced Platform Structure
Features
The advanced platform structure of the 3900 series NodeBs is described as follows: The 3900 series NodeBs that adopt the Huawei platform based on IP switch, support the GSM-WCDMA dual-mode cabinet, HSPA+, and smooth evolution to LTE. The 3900 series NodeBs introduce the module-sharing concept, that is, the distributed NodeB, cabinet macro NodeB, and compact mini NodeB share all baseband and RF modules. The three module types form different NodeB products and apply to different scenarios. This concept protects investment in equipment and maintenance. The dual-star GE IP switch technology enables exchange of large amount of internal data and satisfies more data traffic needs for HSPA+ and LTE in the future. The hot-swappable BBU3900 provides eight slots and supports smooth capacity expansion and evolution. The combination of duplexer and TRU in the RF module enhances the integrity of RF parts and meets the future requirements of the minimized, high-efficiency, and low-cost NodeBs. A minimized NodeB cabinet is easy to carry and install, and the stacked NodeB cabinets take up a small footprint.

6.1 Overview 6.2 System Reliability
Reliability
The 3900 series NodeBs introduce a fresh new NodeB system structure and provides a complete redundancy design. It also takes advantage of Huawei large-capacity ASIC chips to enhance the integrity of modules, reduce the number of parts, and greatly improve the reliability of the system.
The system reliability of the 3900 series NodeBs is embodied in the load-sharing and redundancy configuration design, which optimizes the fault detection/isolation technology of boards and systems and greatly improves the reliability of the system.
Redundancy Design
The main control board, transmission board, power supply unit, and fan in the NodeB all support redundancy. The BBU supports load sharing. The CPRI port that connects the BBU and the RRU supports ring networking. When one CPRI link is faulty, the NodeB can automatically switch to another CPRI link. The key data such as software version and data configuration files in the NodeB supports redundancy.
Reliability Design
The NodeB can automatically self-detect and diagnose hardware failure and environment problems, and then report alarms. It also attempts to conduct self-healing to clear faults. If the self-healing fails, it can automatically isolate the faults.

Overtemperature Protection
When the ambient temperature of the power amplifier on the RRU is too high, the NodeB generates overtemperature alarms and immediately switches off the power amplifier to prevent it from damage.
Software Redundancy
The 3900 series NodeBs provide redundancy for key files and data such as software versions and data configuration files to prevent them from damage and to ensure the normal running of the NodeBs. Redundancy of software versions The 3900 series NodeBs provide separate redundancy for software versions including the BootROM software version to avoid version problems. If one version is faulty, the NodeB can switch to the backup version. Redundancy of data configuration files

The 3900 series NodeBs provide separate redundancy for data configuration files to avoid interrupting the running of the files. If the current file is faulty, the backup file can still work properly.
Error Tolerance
When the software is faulty, it does not affect the entire NodeB because the system is capable of self-healing. The software error tolerance functions are as follows: Scheduled detection of key resources The 3900 series NodeBs perform occupancy check on software resources. If resource hang-up occurs due to software faults, the NodeB can release the unavailable resources in time and export logs and alarms. Task monitoring During the running of software, the 3900 series NodeBs monitor the internal errors of all software and some hardware faults, if any. The 3900 series NodeBs also monitor task progress and running status, report alarms when the system is faulty, and try to restore the task by self-healing. Data Consistency Check The 3900 series NodeBs perform scheduled or event-triggered data consistency check and can restore the data consistency preferably or preferentially. Also, they generate related logs and alarms. Dongle The 3900 series NodeBs can detect the irregular running status of the software and then automatically reset the system through the dongles at both software and hardware levels.
