 System Working Principle （ 1 ）

• One of the biggest characteristics of CDMA BSS system is that

service/signaling switching between subsystems or modules is not in
the traditional circuit switching mode but in the high-speed packet
data network switching mode.

---- Hence the system provides the functions of flexible structure and
convenient addition of functional modules. It can satisfy the switching
requirement of voice communications and adapt to high-speed
multimedia data services. Hence it realizes convenient transition to 3G
system.

ZTE University ZTE Confidential www.univ.zte.com.cn

 System Working Principle （ 2 ）
• The network structure of CDMA BSS is of two levels:
---The first level is HIRS subsystem in BSC, which is
called “big HIRS”. It is the packet data switching center of the
system.
---The second level is the packet data switching network with relatively
low speed formed in SVBS or BDS subsystem, which is called “small
HIRS”. It mainly provides packet data switching services for modules
in SVBS or BDS subsystem

BSS comprises BSC and BTS. In logic, BSC and BTS are two
systems in cooperation to provide services for CDMA mobile
subscribers.
In hardware, these are two different physical entities in
different positions in the telecom network.

 ZXC10-BSS Features
• 1. Advanced ness: The system makes use of a lot of advanced technologies, for
example high-speed packet switching.
• 2. Forward compatibility: The system is designed by fully considering the
transition to the third-generation (3G) mobile communication system. High-speed
packet data services can evolve smoothly to 2M.
• 3. High integrity: ZXC10-BSS makes usage of a lot of advanced components to
improve system integrity and reduce board types and amount.
• 4. High reliability: The amount of boards in the system is reduced. Important
boards of the system adopt 1+1 or N+1 redundancy configuration and software
error tolerance design. System reliability is highly improved.
• 5. Configuration flexibility: In addition to supporting traditional networking
modes, ZXC10-BSS also realizes the daisy chain connection mode for up to 6
BTSs. According to the requirements, each BTS can be configured into 1TRX/1-
sector to 4TRX/3-sectors.
• 6. Supporting rich service types: ZXC10-BSS supports voice calls (8K, 13K, 8K
EVRC voice coding), test calls (Markov call, Loop back call, TDSO call), data
calls, circuit-type data services (asynchronous data and G3 fax), and
supplementary services.
