The ZXSDR R8863 is integrated with a BBU to implement the logical functions of a
complete base station (BTS/Node B), such as radio transmission and radio channel
control in a coverage area.
1.3 Features
The ZXSDR R8863 has the following features:
l Compared with a base station using three single-Tx RRU or two dual-Tx RRU, a base
station using the ZXSDR R8863 is highly integrated, requires smaller installation area
and less weight bearing capacity, and can be easily installed.
l The natural cooling design reduces power consumption and noise pollution.
l The unified hardware platform and network management system greatly reduces the
network maintenance workload.
l The unified SDR multi-mode hardware platform is adaptive to future network evolution.
It supports dynamic GSM/UMTS carrier configuration through software and reuses
existing equipment to the greatest extent during network upgrade. Two ZXSDR R8863
RRUs can be deployed for a base station to support LTE, resulting in a reduction of
evolution cost and protecting the network investment.
1.4 Functions
The ZXSDR R8863 provides the following functions:
l Supports 900 M/1800 M/2100 MHz frequencies.

1.5 Models
The ZXSDR R8863 is available in four models, which are applicable to different scenarios.
For information about these product models, refer to Table 1-1.

Module Description
Power amplifier and low-noise This module contains three PAs, each integrated with a low-noise
amplifier amplifier. Each PA amplifies downlink RF signals and sends the
amplified signals to the duplexer filter.
Duplexer filter This module combines and filters transmitted and received RF
signals.
Power module The power module supplies power and provides EMC protection
for the monitoring interface and AISG interface.
A Linux operating system runs on the hardware platform of the ZXSDR R8863. The BSP
contains a suite of software closely related to boards, which supports the running of RTOS
on the boards. The operation support layer of the software system provides the following
functions:
l OSS: The OSS serves as the support layer of the entire software architecture.
It provides a hardware-irrelevant platform on which the software runs to provide

In remote operation and maintenance mode, the EMS connects to an NE through TCP/IP.
The EMS can be used to operate and maintain multiple base stations.
3-1
The LMT is used for local operation and maintenance of an individual base station. It
supports basic operations on the base station, such as power query, power increase and
decrease, and calibration.
l Performance management
The performance management supports performance analysis, calling trace, and
signaling trace.
l Version management
The version management allows users to view hardware and software versions in
base stations and download latest versions for software upgrade.
l Fault management
3-2
The fault management includes alarm management and diagnostic tests. By using
the fault management functions, maintenance personnel can monitor the operational
statuses of base stations and collect the information of board and link faults in real
time for fault analysis and equipment maintenance.

4.1 Overview
Table 4-1 describes the supported base station topologies when the ZXSDR R8863 (RRU)
is deployed in a base station.
In chain topology, a maximum of six RRUs can be deployed in a GSM base station; while
a maximum of two RRUs can be deployed in a UMTS base station.
