Layer Functions

Internal Communication Control Plane (ICCP)

Transfers internal maintenance messages and service control messages between different processors, thus implementing efficient control over distributed communication.

Operates independent of the infrastructure layer.

Service Transport Control Plane (STCP)

Transports the service data on the user plane and control plane at the network layer between NEs.

Separates the service transport technology from the radio access technology and makes the service transport transparent to the upper-layer service.

Provides service bearer channels.

Application Implements the basic functions of network element service control and controls the upper-layer service, such as call processing, mobility management, and RRM.

Hides the topology characteristics of various resources in the network and in the equipment.

Provides the resource access interface, hides the distribution of internal resources and network resources, maintains the mapping between the service control and resource instance, and controls the association between various resources.

Manages the resources and OM status, responds to the resource request from the upper layer, and hides the resource implementation from the upper layer.

Isolates the upper-layer services from the hardware platform to facilitate the hardware development.

2.4 Reliability The resource pool and redundancy are widely used in the reliability design of the BSC6900 UMTS. The techniques of detecting and isolating the faults in the boards and in the system are optimized and the software fault tolerance capability is improved to enhance the system reliability.

2.4.1 System Reliability The BSC6900 UMTS system reliability is designed with the following features:

High reliable architecture design The design of dual switching planes, with up to 120 Gbit/s GE star non-blocking switching capability per subrack, solves the bottleneck problem and prevents the single point failure in the deployment of the high-capacity BSC6900 UMTS. Moreover, port trunking is adopted on the switching boards. The port trunking function allows data backup in case of link failure, thus preventing inter-plane switchover and cascading switchover and improving the reliability of intra-system communication.



of 30


Dual clock planes are used in clock transmission between the GCUa/GCGa board and the SCUa board. Thus, a single point of failure does not affect the normal operation of the system clock.

Resource pool design In case of overload, the system achieves load sharing between the control plane and the user plane by employing the resource pooling functionality. This effectively avoids suspension because of overload, thus improving the resource utilization and system reliability.

Redundancy mechanism All the hardware in the BSC6900 UMTS supports the redundancy mechanism. The rapid switchover between active and standby parts improves the system reliability. Moreover, with the quick fault detection and rectification feature, the impact of the faults on the service is minimized.

Flow control The system performs flow control based on the CPU and memory usage. Thus, the BSC6900 UMTS can continue working by regulating the items pertaining to performance monitoring, resource auditing, and resource scheduling in the case of CPU overload and resource congestion. In this way, the system reliability is enhanced.

2.4.2 Hardware Reliability The BSC6900 UMTS hardware reliability is designed with the following features:

The system uses the multi-level cascaded and distributed cluster control mode. Several CPUs form a cluster processing system. Each module has distinct functions. The communication channels between modules are based on the redundancy design or anti-suspension/breakdown design.

The system uses the redundancy design, as described in Table 2-6, to support hot swap of boards and redundancy of important modules. Therefore, the system has a strong fault tolerance capability.

The isolation mechanism is used. When entity A fails to accomplish a task, entity B that has the same functionalities as entity A takes over the task. Meanwhile, entity A is isolated until it is restored.

When a board with a single functionality is faulty, the board can be restarted to rectify the fault.

All boards support dual-BIOS. When one BIOS is faulty, the startup or operation of a board is not affected.

The system uses the non-volatile memory to store important data. With advanced integrated circuits, the system is characterized by high integration,

sophisticated technology, and high reliability. All the parts of the system are of high quality and pass the aging test. The process of

hardware assembly is strictly controlled. These methods ensure the high stability and reliability for long-term operation.

2.4.3 Software Reliability The BSC6900 UMTS software reliability is designed with the following features:

Scheduled check on crucial resources The software check mechanism checks various software resources in the system. If a resource deadlock occurs because of software faults, the check mechanism can release the locked resources and generate related logs and alarms.

Task monitoring When the software is running, internal software faults and some hardware faults can be monitored through the monitoring process. The monitoring process monitors the task operating status and reports errors to the OM system.

Data check The software performs regular or event-driven data consistency check, restores the data selectively or preferably, and generates logs and alarms.

Data backup Both the data in the OMU database and the board data can be backed up to ensure data reliability and consistency.

Operation logs The system automatically records the history operations into logs. The operation logs help in identifying and rectifying the faults caused by improper operations.
