Overview
In general, WCDMA system consists of three parts, which are Core Network, UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network and User Equipment. As a subsystem of WCDMA, UTRAN comprises two parts: Node B and RNC. Node B can be an integrated base station or a combination of Base Band Unit and Remote Radio Unit. The WCDMA system general topology is shown as Figure 1. Iub is defined as the interface between Node B and RNC. Uu is the interface between UE and Node B.
Figure 1
So far, ZTE has launched a mature WCDMA commercial system based on 3GPP R4/R5/R6. ZTE provides a complete set of solutions from core network to radio access network. Radio network subsystem (RNS) includes ZXWR RNC and a series of ZXWR Node Bs. ZXWR series Node B has abundant products categories including: Indoor Macro Node B, Outdoor Macro Node B, BBU and RRU. All Node Bs are designed with unified hardware platform, adopting all IP switching structure. ZXWR series Node B all have the characters of high degree of integration, large capacity, expansion flexibility and high reliability. ZXWR series Node B adopts modular layout which can be separated as base band module and radio frequency module. The base band module and radio frequency unit are independent processed. This enables the each has the independent evolution capability. Moreover, the high capacity Baseband Process boards, 40% high PA efficiency, multi carriers TRXU, high sensitivity receiver and other innovational technique make ZXWR series Node B become smaller in dimension while achieving low power
consumption. These characters will reduce operators' CAPEX and TCO. ZXWR series Node B adopted advanced baseband algorithm based high capacity BP boards have realized R99/HSDPA/HSUPA BB resource sharing. It will greatly reduce future evolution cost. The DPD+Doherty based high efficiency PA has 40% efficiency. DPD adopts ZTE invented design and algorithms. It is much advance than other vendors' and will provide the lower operation cost solution to the operators. ZXWR R8840 (R8840 for short) is a member of ZTE WCDMA Distribution Base Station family, which is an outdoor RRU with high power transmission. It can be work with ZTE series Baseband unit to form a distributed base station. BBUB is one of product in ZTE BBU family. This document is a description of R8840 system structure, product function and system indices, and an introduction of R8840s typical networking and application scenarios.

Networking
R8840 provides 2 interfaces for the connection between baseband and RF. The data rate of the interface can be 1.25Gbps or 2.5Gbps. It supports CPRI standard protocol and can upgrade to support OBSAI protocol. R8840 supports star, chain and loop networking with BBU. The topologies architecture is shown in Figure 10. The cascade of R8840 supports chain and loop networking. In loop networking mode, R8840 has double fiber loop-protect mechanism which wherever the fiber is broken, it can automatic perform loop-protect switch. In chain and loop networking mode, 4 RRU can be maximally cascaded and the maximal distance is 100 Km; The maximal distance between BBU and first RRU can reach 40 Km, but its kindly suggested that not more than 10 Km.

Application Scenes
Radio remote unit R8840 is only for radio frequency processing, it cannot be use alone. It should be work together with baseband unit like BBUB or Marco Node B B09 to form a function of Node B. R8840 can be used in the location like indoor area, outdoor area, with equipment room area or without equipment room area. The design of R8840 mainly used in outdoor and upper air, so its easy to get lightning strike. Due to limited space in R8840, an external level C lightning protection box is preferred. If R8840 install in less lightning area, no external lightning protection box would be fine. If R8840 use in outdoor area, sun radiation protection is preferred. The sun-shade would be use and install at the top of R8840 cabinet. The sun-shade would have at least 50 mm distance with the cabinet top and can cover 1/3 of the cabinet. R8840 can use power supply of AC 220V or 110V and DC -48V. In outdoor scenario, if AC is available, R8840 can use AC as power supply and use UPS as backup battery or no consideration of backup battery. If DC is available, R8840 can use DC as power supply and use UPS as backup battery or no consideration of backup battery. Two typical application scenarios will be consider in following chapter.
9.1
Scene 1
3G equipment uses the existing 2G equipment room or shelter to achieve co-room or cocabinet with 2G and 3G. Solution: BBUB can be installing inside of transmission cabinet, inside the 2G equipment or just hang in the wall. R8840 can be mounted on the pole mast outside the equipment room or hang in the wall inside the equipment room/shelter. The power supply of R8840 and UPS can be provided from equipment room. The Figure 11 shows the R8840 install inside the equipment room. The Figure 12 shows the R8840 installed outside the equipment room.

Figure 12
9.2
Scene 2
In new 3G site, there is no equipment room and outdoor installation is preferred. Solution: Adopt ZTE outdoor power supply cabinet W121, where BBUB can be installed inside. At the same time it can solve the problem of power supply and UPS. The R8840 would be mounted on the pole near antenna if optical fiber resource is available. R8840 use DC power supply and UPS backup battery from W121. The external lightning protection box would be also used DC as power supply from W121 and can be installed on pole or against wall. R8840 and BBUB are connected by optical fiber. W121 would be located in the roof or a room near roof. Its recommend that the distance between power
18
supply cabinet and R8840 is 30 100 m. The Figure 13 shows the R8840 installed outside in scenario 2.
