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 14 (2016-01-30)

28

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 3900 WCDMA: 3900 series base stations
Service
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 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.
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)

29

3 Logical Structure
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.
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 co-MPT without changing the existing base stations.

Operation and Maintenance
Huawei provides convenient and flexible operation and maintenance methods for 3900 series
base stations.
3900 series base stations can be maintained in the following methods:
l
Local maintenance: OM personnel maintain the base station on the base station LMT or
SMT through the local maintenance port on the base station.
Remote maintenance: OM personnel maintain the base station on the U2000 or LMT in
the equipment room or the centralized management center.
On the U2000, the base station is a management entity managing the services of one or
multiple modes. Base stations are independent of each other and have different deployment
IDs (DIDs). No Itf_RBS_MRI interface is configured between base stations.
A base station deployed with only one mode is called a single-mode base station. A base
station deployed with two or more modes is called a multimode base station. Multimode base
stations such as separate-MPT and co-MPT multimode base stations are indicated by
Multimode Base Station on the U2000. To simplify base station classification, a co-MPT
base station deployed with only one mode is also classified as a multimode base station.
Each BTS node in a multimode base station has an independent OM channel. The BTS node
together with the RAT Service deployed on it are called an NE, which can be independently
managed by the LMT, SMT, or U2000.
Operation and Maintenance for Single-Mode Base Stations

A single-mode base station serves only one mode, has one OM interface, represents one NE,
and is connected to one U2000.
The GBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB are displayed on the U2000 based on the NE type. The
corresponding NE type is BTS3900 GSM, BTS3900 WCDMA, and BTS3900 LTE,
respectively.
The NE type of the eGBTS is BTS3900. The eGBTS has the same OM system as a co-MPT
multimode base station.
Figure 4-1 shows the OM systems of the GBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB.
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)

33

Figure 4-1 OM systems of the GBTS, NodeB, and eNodeB
Operation and Maintenance for Co-MPT Multimode Base Stations

Multiple modes in a co-MPT multimode base station are deployed on the same main control
board. These modes share one OM interface, represent one NE, and are connected to one
U2000.
A co-MPT multimode base station is displayed as BTS3900 on the U2000.
Figure 4-2 shows the OM system of a co-MPT multimode base station.
Figure 4-2 OM system of a co-MPT multimode base station
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)

Operation and Maintenance for Separate-MPT Multimode Base Stations

Multiple modes in a separate-MPT multimode base station are deployed on different main
control boards. These modes have different OM interfaces, represent different NEs, and are
connected to one U2000 through their own OM channels.
NEs in a separate-MPT multimode base station are independently managed on the base station
LMT or SMT.
On the U2000, NEs in a separate-MPT multimode base station have the same DID. The
U2000 provides a unified GUI to manage NEs in a separate-MPT multimode base station.
The separate-MPT multimode base station is indicated by MBTS on the U2000. Different
modes have different NE types, including BTS3900 GSM, BTS3900 WCDMA, and BTS3900
LTE.
Figure 4-3 shows the OM system of a separate-MPT multimode base station.
Figure 4-3 OM system of a separate-MPT multimode base station
Management Method of Shared Resources

Shared resources are physical and logical resources shared among multiple modes in a
separate-MPT multimode base station. For details, see Table 4-2. Resources occupied by only
one mode are not shared resources.
In a separate-MPT multimode base station where multiple modes share resources, the shared
resources must be managed.
There are two methods for managing the shared resources:
l
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)
Unilateral management: The shared resources are managed by only one mode and are
displayed only on the management interface of this mode.
35

Multilateral management: The shared resources are collectively managed by multiple

modes. Operators need to prevent operations that may cause management conflicts.
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.
Table 4-1 lists the difference between unilateral management and multilateral management.
Table 4-1 Difference between unilateral and multilateral management
Function
Unilateral Management
Multilateral Management
Configuration
Management
Only one mode is configured

with resource sharing parameters.
Multiple modes are configured with

resource sharing parameters and these
parameters must have consistent
settings to prevent resource conflicts.
The multi-node OMC configuration
tool can automatically associate with
the shared resources to ensure

Function
Unilateral Management
Multilateral Management
Fault
Management
Only one mode reports, locates,

and clears alarms related to the
shared resources.
Multiple modes report alarms related

to the shared resources. On the multinode OMC alarm management tool,
the OM personnel can specify a mode
to locate and clear the reported alarms
while alarms reported by other modes
are shielded.
When handling a common alarm
(excluding an inter-RAT
configuration conflict alarm),
operators need to handle it only on
one mode. After being cleared on one
mode, the alarm is also cleared on
other modes. For details about the
reporting and handling of a common
alarm, see Alarm Management in
3900 Series Base Station Alarm
Reference (you can obtain this
document by choosing 3900 Series
Base Station Product
Documentation > Operation and
Maintenance > Fault Management).

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 OM personnel
can grant loading control rights to one
mode for software upgrades and
rollbacks. 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 nonstandard Huawei version mapping is
used. In principle, the loading control
rights are configured in descending
order of version and mode (for
example, LTE > UMTS > GSM).
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.

37

When unilateral management is used, the user can specify a mode to manage the shared
resources based on site situations. For example:
l
Newly deployed base stations: Different modes of newly deployed base stations are
listed in descending order of management priority: GSM > UMTS > LTE. For example,
in a newly deployed GU base station, it is recommended that GSM manage the shared
resources.
Capacity expansion: It is recommended that the existing mode manage 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. Table 4-2
lists the management method for different types of shared resources.
Table 4-2 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 used: energy saving, smart TRX, and fan speed
controlling by the main control board.
l The CCU can be managed by only one mode.
BBU 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. 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 GSM and UMTS.
ALD
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)
Unilateral management: The ALD is managed by one mode whose RF

modules are connected to the ALD. ALD is short for antenna line
device.

Unilateral management: BBU interconnection modules are managed by

one mode that shares one BBU with this BBU interconnection module.
Transmission
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.
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.

About This Chapter

3900 series base stations adopt a module design, which consists of three modules: the
BBU3900, RF modules and cabinets that work with the BBU3900 and RF modules. The
BBU3900 and RF modules can be combined with different types of cabinets to adapt to
different application scenarios and meet user's requirements for fast and cost-effective
network deployment.
5.1 Cabinets
Based on the application scenarios and cabinets installed, 3900 series base stations can be
classified into indoor macro base stations (BTS3900 and BTS3900L), outdoor macro base
stations (BTS3900A and BTS3900AL), distributed base stations (DBS3900), and mini base
stations (BTS3900C).
5.2 BBU
The BBU is a baseband processing unit and centrally manages the entire base station.
5.3 RF Module
RF modules modulate and demodulate baseband and RF signals, process data, amplify power
for signals, and conduct voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) tests.

Baseband Specifications of a Multimode Base Station

In co-BBP scenarios, the baseband signals of multiple modes are processed by one baseband
processing board. Co-BBP baseband specifications described here refer to the maximum
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)

baseband specifications of a baseband processing board when it processes baseband signals of

multiple modes at the same time. For example, baseband specifications of GL co-BBP refer to
the maximum baseband specifications of a baseband processing board when it processes GSM
and LTE FDD baseband signals at the same time.
The following tables provide the baseband specifications in GU, GL, UL, and GUL co-BBP
scenarios, respectively.
NOTE
In GL, UL, or GUL co-BBP scenarios, the UBBPd board does not support hybrid configuration of 1R and 4R
LTE FDD cells, or 2R and 4R LTE FDD cells.

Traffic Model
On live networks, the service capacity of an eNodeB FDD depends on system processing
capacities as well as the traffic model used. This section describes two traffic models:
datacard traffic model and smartphone traffic model.
l
The datacard traffic model derives from a typical LTE network where data cards make up
a large proportion of all admitted terminals. LTE dongle and customer premises
equipment (CPE) are examples of such data cards. UEs in this traffic model are
characterized by long online duration, low mobility, and many large-packet data services.
The smartphone traffic model derives from a typical LTE network where smartphones
make up a large proportion of all admitted terminals. UEs in this traffic model are
characterized by short online duration, frequent network access and release, high
mobility, and many small-packet data services.
The following table describes the control plane (CP) traffic models for the datacard and
smartphone traffic models.

Signaling Specifications of eNodeBs

Busy Hour Call Attempts (BHCA) is the number of calls attempted at a busy hour. Signaling
procedures required for completing a call may include the following: call setup, call release
(including CSFB if it occurs), handover, tracking area update (TAU), DRB setup and release,
and transition from the uplink-synchronized state to the uplink-asynchronized state. BHCA
indicates the signaling processing capabilities of a system.
A busy hour call initiated on different operators' networks involves different types and
numbers of signaling procedures and therefore consumes different amount of eNodeB
resources. As a result, the BHCA capability varies depending on the traffic model.
The BHCA specifications provided by Huawei are based on the smartphone traffic model.
The following table lists the signaling specifications of the LMPT/UMPT/LBBP/UBBP
boards in LTE FDD mode when the smartphone traffic model is used.

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 bandwidth of GSM mode is insufficient. As a result, the number of cells
supported by UMTS mode is reduced.

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.

For the GRFU V2/GRFU V2a operating in the 900 MHz frequency band:
l
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.

receive channels.
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.
0.001.
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.

keying (GMSK) modulation schemes enable the same output power for each carrier on the
RRU3008 V2 when any of the S1 through S6 configurations is used.
When the S7 or S8 configurations is used, the license controlling the GBFD-118104 Enhanced

NOTE
power of each carrier on the RRU3942 is 80 W; when the S2 configuration is applied, the maximum
output power of each carrier on the RRU3942 is 60 W. If the output power of 60 W or 80 W is required,
the related license must be obtained.
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
power of each carrier on the RRU3952 is 80 W; when the S2 configuration is applied, the maximum
output power of each carrier on the RRU3952 is 60 W. If the output power of 60 W or 80 W is required,
l The RRU3952 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.
l When two LTE carriers are configured, it is recommended that the power spectrum density (PSD) of the
two carriers be set to the same value. Power spectrum density = Carrier output power/Carrier bandwidth
(1.4 MHz and 3 MHz bandwidths are considered as 5 MHz bandwidth in this formula.)

NOTE
l For the RRU3953/RRU3953w working in GSM mode: when the S1 or S2 configuration is applied, the
maximum output power of each carrier on the RRU3953/RRU3953w is 60 W. If the output power of 60
W is required, the related license must be obtained.
l For RRU3953w, the scenario where the third-order intermodulated signal falls in the receive frequency
range of a configured carrier is not supported.

NOTE
l The RRU3953 supports a maximum of 2x80 W power configuration, and supports a maximum of 2 x 60
W power configuration working in GSM mode.
l (a) indicates that when working in the 1900 MHz frequency band in GSM mode, the RRU3953 also
supports the power configuration of 40 W+80 W.
l (b) indicates that when only working in the 900 MHz frequency band, the RRU3953 supports the power
configuration.
l (c) indicates that when only working in the 1900 MHz frequency band, the RRU3953 supports the power
configuration.
l (d) indicates that when only working in the 1800 MHz/1900 MHz frequency band, the RRU3953 supports
the power configuration.

The AAU3911 is an active antenna unit that incorporates the functions of RF modules and
antennas.
AAU Configuration
Configured with different types of AUs and RUs, the AAU3911 can support different
configuration scenarios. Table 6-862 provides the configuration scenarios of the AAU3911.
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)

771

NOTE
l In xA+yP in the AAU Configuration column, A indicates active modules and P indicates the passive
modules (not installed in the AAU3911 slots). x indicates the frequency band of the active unit, and y
indicates the frequency band of the passive unit. For example, 2100 A+700-900 P means that the
frequency band of the active module is 2100 MHz and that of the passive unit ranges from 700 MHz to
900 MHz.
l In the RU Configuration column, UP indicates that the RU is installed in the upper slot of the AAU and
DOWN indicates that the RU is installed in the lower slot of the AAU.
l In the AU Specifications column, UP indicates the frequency band supported by the antenna port at the
rear of the antenna and DOWN indicates the frequency band supported by the antenna port at the bottom
of the antenna.
l The Combiner Configuration column indicates whether a combiner is configured and, if so, the
frequency band specifications of the combiner. For details about a combiner, see AAU3911 Hardware
Description.
l In scenarios where a combiner is configured, the combiner loss must be considered when a passive
module is connected to the combiner. Therefore, the antenna gain of the passive module equals the
antenna gain minus 0.5 dB. For example, when the configuration 2100 A (2T4R 2x60 W) + 1800 P (4
Ports) + 700-900 P (2 Ports) is used, the antenna gain of the RF module is calculated as follows when the
combiner is connected to an RF module working in the 1800 MHz frequency band: 17 dBi - 0.5 dB =
16.5 dBi.

7 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
self-healing 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
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)
Wide voltage range and surge protection

843

7 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
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:
Issue 14 (2016-01-30)
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.
