Signal interaction between shelves

All resource shelves connect with GLI on the switching shelf via the optical interface on the front panel of UIMU.

The control shelf connects with UIMC on the switching shelf via RCHB1 and RCHB2 (rear board of CHUB).

Clock signals connect with UIMC on the switching shelf via RCKG1 and RCKG2 (rear board of CLKG).

Processing of signals inside the shelf

i. User data

The switching shelf is a high-speed switching backplane. All network processing modules judge the route forward of the physical interface data.

The data is sent to PSN through the high-speed switching connection of the backplane for switching.

The switched data is received from PSN for processing.

At last, the data is sent from the physical interface.

ii. Control data

UIMC switching uses the Ethernet bus as the internal control bus of the subsystem, connecting all modules in the subsystem, distributing and collecting route information, maintaining and managing system configurations, and passing the protocol and signaling data of the high layer.

The backplane of switching shelf is BPSN.

Boards

This chapter describes the functions and descriptions of ZXG10 iBSC boards.

Overview

According to the hardware assembly relation, boards can be classified as front board and rear board.

Front board has a front panel. Indicators on the front panel indicate the board status. Front board can be inserted in the slots.

Rear board consists of the external interfaces and debugging interfaces. These interfaces are used to interconnect shelves of same cabinet or different cabinets. The rear board and the front board work together. For some active/standby front board, it is necessary to configure two kinds of rear boards.

Front board and rear board are installed in the slots on the backplane.

Front board and rear board form a complete metal shield inside the shelf, reducing the external electromagnetic radiation of the system and enhancing the anti-interference capability.

Figure 43 shows the board assembly relation.

Clock Generator (CLKG)

CLKG is the clock generator board of ZXG10 iBSC system. Active and standby CLKG boards locks to the same reference to implement smooth switchover.

Functions of CLKG board are as follows:

Provides system clock and external synchronization. It extracts clock reference through A interface and gives multiple timing reference signals to the interface units after intra-board synchronization.

Supports background or manual selection of reference sources, including BITS, network (8 kHz), GPS, and local (level 2 or 3). Manual switchover can be screened by software.

Adopts loose-coupling phase-locked system, working in 4 modes: CATCH, TRACE, HOLD, and FREE.

Outputs Level-3 clock.

Performs clock loss alarming and deterioration judgment for inputted reference.

Supports active/standby switchover.

Figure 50 shows the working principle of CLKG.

It manages the board, communicates with the system control unit, implements the core clock control algorithm, outputs the clock signals, and selects the reference according to the data that the phase detection and phase locking unit provide.

Reference selection unit

It selects the suitable reference clock from several input clock under the control of the main processing unit. The clock reference can be from 8 KHz frame synchronization signal of DTB or APBE clock reference, 2 MHz/2 Mbits of Building Integrated Timing System (BITS).

Voltage controlled oscillator unit

The constant temperature crystal oscillator that meets level-3 clock standard provides the clock source with high precision.

Phase detection and phase lock unit

It compares the adjustment clock signal and input reference phase and provides the quantized data for the main processing unit, to control the voltage controlled oscillator unit. The phase lock system adopts the loose coupler phase lock principle.

Active/Standby switchover unit

It implements the active/standby switchover (the compact of the switching on the clock should be within the allowed range). The active/standby CLKG is locked in the same reference, for the smooth switchover.

Board data flow direction

Select one channel of input reference clock to lock the phase and output 16 M and phase head signals that meets the requirements of scheduling. After the balanced dived, the data is distributed to UIMU.

Perform the pulse expansion on the received PP2S and 16 CHIP signal, and then distribute the new PP2S to UIMU.

There are 12 4-digit DIP switches on DTB.

Eight 4-digit DIP switches (S1-S6, S9 and S12) are to select impedance matching resistance for each E1: 75 W or 120 W.

Line impedance is 75 W if DIP switch is set to ON.

Line impedance is 120 W if DIP switch is set to OFF.

Two 4-digit DIP switches (S7 and S8) are to indicate receiving matching impedance of each E1 chip for CPU.

Matching impedance of corresponding E1 is 75 W if DIP switch is set to ON.

Matching impedance of corresponding E1 is 120 W if DIP switch is set to OFF.

Each DIP switch corresponds to one E1 chip:

S7 corresponds to E1 chips 1 to 4 (E1 channels 1 to 16)

S8 corresponds to E1 chips 5 to 8 (E1 channels 17 to 32)

CPU reads this status during power-on and initiates each E1 chip according to this status.

Two 4-digit DIP switches (S10 and S11) are to indicate long/short line status of each E1 chip for CPU.

Corresponding E1 chip (four E1 channels in total) is in SHORT HAUL mode if DIP switch is set to ON.

Corresponding E1 chip is in LONG HAUL mode if DIP switch is set to OFF.

Each DIP switch corresponds to one E1 chip:

S10 corresponds to E1 chips 1 to 4 (E1 channels 1 to 16)

S11 corresponds to E1 chips 5 to 8 (E1 channels 17 to 32)

CPU reads this status during power-on and initiates each E1 chip according to this status.

There is one jumper (X23) on DTB for debugging. X23 must be disconnected when the board is working normally.

There are six 4-digit DIP switches on the SPB board.

Four digits of S3 respectively represent E1s 1–4 on the SPB board.

Four digits of S4 respectively represent E1s 5–8 on the SPB board.

Four digits of S5 respectively represent E1s 9–12 on the SPB board.

Four digits of S6 respectively represent E1s 13–16 on the SPB board.

S1 and S2 indicate the receiving matching impedance and long/short haul state of each E1 chip respectively. The CPU retrieves the state and initializes the E1 chip according to the state.

If S1 is ON (1 is retrieved), it indicates long haul.

If S1 is OFF (0 is retrieved), it indicates short haul.

If S2 is ON (1 is retrieved), it indicates that the matching impedance is 120 Ω.

If S2 is OFF (0 is retrieved), it indicates that the matching impedance is 75 Ω.

Channels 1–4 of S1/S2 respectively represent the E1 Chips 1–4 (namely, E1 channels 1–4, 5–8, 9–12, and 13–16).

Main Control Unit

It is the core of alarm box, which is used to save OS, startup code and voice data. The work library space is 8 MB, and data saving space is 16 MB.

Interface Unit

The external interface of alarm box is as follows:

Ethernet interface

RS232 serial interface

RS485 interface

GPS interface

Man-machine Unit

It provides hearable and visible alarm information and also provides the operation and maintenance interface.

Alarm Indicator

There are four alarm indicators. Colored red, blue, yellow and green in order of severity. When alarm occurs, the corresponding indicator will flash or be ON for a long time.

Page 119: ibsc board and its function.pdf

Chapter 4 –Boards

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 119

There is no individual alarm indicator for environment alarm, but it is handled as a certain level alarm.

Voice Announcement

The main control unit works in transparent HDLC mode, it sends the PCM voice saved in FLASH to the PCM coder/decoder chip (CODEC) for coding, and the data is converted to linear signal. Then the power amplifier drives the speaker, and the hearable alarm is realized.

The voice management at background realizes the voice recording, edit and pre-play, and downloads the voice file into the FLASH of the alarm box.

LCD

LCM is employed to display the alarm.

LCD is hung on the parallel bus of the main control unit. LCM size is proper and it is all-dots graphic display. Characters font size is controlled by software to display different type of information.

LED has back facet power, which is generally OFF resulting in increased life of the LED. When pressing the function button or displaying information, the back facet power turns ON to display.

There are some function buttons on the alarm box, which realize the operation and maintenance functions together with LCM.

Logic Unit

Employ EPLD to realize required combinational and sequential logic.

Power Unit

The input voltage of the alarm box is -48 V DC from the equipment room, and is converted to +5 V, +3.3 V and other voltages for each unit by DC-DC power converter.

When the alarm box is in the duty room outside the equipment room, there may not be -48 V DC power, in this case, a external AC/DC power adapter is required to convert 110/220 V AC to 48 V DC, providing -48 V DC power to the alarm box. AC/DC power adaptor is an optional accessory of the alarm box.
