1.General Introduction

ZXG10 B8018 is new type of ZXG10-BTS, based on ZXG10-BTS

(V2)

employs many new technologies and achieves great improvement

in software, hardware and system reliability.

It not only has inherited all advantages of ZXG10-BTS (V2), but

also has added many new functions and services to satisfy market

requirements. In addition, it also reduces hardware and networking

cost.

It is one of the most perfect serial BS and solve the problem that

cannot be solved by current ZXG10-BTS (V2).

Page 5: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

1.General Introduction

Employs DTRU technology, i.e. two carriers in each physical transceiver module;

Supports parallel connection with ZXG10-BTS (V2) cabinet to realize capacity expansion;

Supports DPCT, downlink delay diversity (DDT) transmission, IRC and so on;

Supports 4 diversities reception; Supports 8 E1/T1 interface; Supports 75Ω/E1 and 120Ω/E1 transmission; Supports intelligent power on/off; Supports IP Abis-interface.

The main features of ZXG10 B8018 is shown below:

Page 55: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features - dTRU

The dTRU is very flexible and can be used for several purposes.

Its two TRXs, for instance, can be used separately or, by DPCT

to improve the downlink and four-way diversity to improve the

uplink, they can be configured to create a super TRX.

Page 56: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features - dTRU

One dTRU can easily be used to extend coverage

Page 57: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features - DPCT

When seeking greater cell range it is crucial to have a strong signal from the BTS to the handset.

This is often referred to as downlink capability. This is what a handset presents as signal

strength in the display. In configurations intended for maximum coverage, Dual Power

Combining Transmission (DPCT) feature doubles the output power from the BTS cabinet,

resulting in a significantly larger coverage area.

3.New features – DDT

Purpose: supports downlink transmitter diversity (the mobile phone combines the best of two signals).

Implementation: by transmitting the same information on two TRXs with a short delay and different antennas.

using only a simple software command, operators can convert the base station from a two transceiver operational mode into the “DDT" mode, where the two transceivers work together as one virtual transceiver, so extending the range.

cellular downlink performance is increased by at least 3.0 decibels (dB) at the cell border, reducing the number of sites needed by up to 30 percent over any conventional base station coverage network.

Page 62: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features – 4 div RX

The majority of radio networks today have limited range due to

weak uplink signals from handsets. The best way to overcome an

unbalanced link budget is to ensure good receiver capability in

the base station. With the addition of a second antenna system in

the cell, we enable 4-Way Receiver Diversity (4WRD), and this

provides a total uplink that compensates for weak handset

signals.

The combination of DPCT with fully compensated uplink based

on 4-way Receiver Diversity comprises our Supreme Coverage

solution.

― 4 diversities reception

Page 63: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features - IRC

Another way to increase the capacity, more advanced detection techniques have been implemented - Interference Rejection Combining (IRC)

In maximum ratio combining (MRC) each signal is weighted with its signal-to-noise ratio to achieve optimum performance in white noise environments, i.e. the noise signal is uncorrelated in time.

IRC, on the other hand, takes the correlation properties of CO-channel interferers into account to suppress them, and therefore is able to achieve much better performance in co-channel limited environments than MRC.

― Interference Rejection Combining

Page 64: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features – Int. Pwr on/off

In order to reduce OPEX of operator, when traffic decrease

to certain value or in idle mode, this scheme automatically

to turn off part of Modules of B8018 to save power.

When traffic increase to certain busy threshold, this scheme

automatically to turn on sleep module to balance the traffic.

The principle is as follows: CMB is able to control the switch

of all board (mainly is DTRU) in rack except interface board

(EIB/FIB) and CMB.

― Intelligent power on/off

Page 65: BTS 8018 Hardware Presentation

3.New features – TFO

In a normal MS-MS call configuration the Speech Signal is first encoded in the

originating MS, sent over the Air Interface, converted to A-law or μ-law in the local

transcoder, carried over the fixed network, transcoded again in the distant

transcoder, sent over the distant Air Interface and finally decoded in the terminating

MS. In this configuration, the two speech codecs (coder/decoder pairs) are in

"Tandem Operation". The key inconvenience of a tandem configuration is the

speech quality degradation introduced by the double transcoding. This degradation

is usually more noticeable when the speech codecs are operating at low rates.

When the originating and terminating connections are using the same speech

codec, it is possible to transmit transparently the speech frames received from the

originating MS to the terminating MS without activating the transcoding functions in

the originating and terminating networks. In this configuration, "Tandem Free

Operation" is on-going.

3.New features – IP Abis

One of the primary advantages of employing IP-based transport is

the ease of maintenance arising from convergence of core and

RAN networks.

Other advantages include economic benefits and capacity benefits
