Description
Lay the patient on his back with his arms parallel to the body. If the patient is laying on an inclined plane, make sure that his stomach is slightly lower than his chest. Open the patients mouth and check that there is no foreign matter in mouth (dentures, chewing gum, etc.). Kneel beside the patient level with his head. Put an hand under the patients head and one under his neck. Lift the patients head and let it recline backwards as far as possible.
Figure
Shift the hand from the patients neck to his chin and his mouth, the index along his jawbone, and keep the other fingers closed together. While performing these operations take a good supply of oxygen by taking deep breaths with your mouth open.
With your thumb between the patients chin and mouth keep his lips together and blow into his nasal cavities
While performing these operations observe if the patients chest rises. If not it is possible that his nose is blocked: in that case open the patients mouth as much as possible by pressing on his chin with your hand, place your lips around his mouth and blow into his oral cavity. Observe if the patients chest heaves. This second method can be used instead of the first even when the patients nose is not obstructed, provided his nose is kept closed by pressing the nostrils together using the hand you were holding his head with. The patients head must be kept sloping backwards as much as possible. Start with ten rapid expirations, hence continue at a rate of twelve/ fifteen expirations per minute. Go on like this until the patient has regained consciousness, or until a doctor has ascertained his death.

SYSTEM PRESENTATION
5.1
RADIO SYSTEM OVERVIEW
5.1.1
General
AL is SIAEs PDH radio series for lowtomedium transmission capacities in frequency bands from 7 to 38 GHz. Different hardware versions offer a range of tributaries traffic from 2xE1 to 16xE1, with or without Ethernet traffic, on 4 and 16QAM modulation, with capacity up to 64 Mbit/s. Reduced cost, high reliability, compact size, light weight and full programmability are the key features of this radio series.
5.2
COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
The equipment complies with the following international standards: EN 301 4894 for EMC ITUR recommendations for all frequency bands EN 300 1322 characteristics for power supply EN 300 019 environmental characteristics (Operation class 3.2 for IDU and class 4.1 for ODU; storage: class 1.2; transport: class 2.3) EN 60950 for safety

5.3
APPLICATIONS
AL main applications are: radio communication between GSM cells radio links for voice and data transmission spur routes for high capacity radio system emergency links Ethernet traffic in point to point communication
5.4
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
The AL radio equipment consist of two separate units: the indoor unit (IDU) that houses tributary interfaces, Ethernet ports modem and controller units the outdoor unit (ODU) that converts IF signals into RF signals and vice versa.
The two units are interconnected via coaxial cable. Fig. 5.1 and Fig. 5.2 show a typical IDU/ODU layout whereas Fig. 5.3 and Fig. 5.4 show the radio block diagram in 1+0 and 1+1 configuration respectively.
5.4.1
IDU
The IDU is available in the following hardware versions: 1 rack unit compact IDU, 1+0 configuration, 2/4/8xE1 1 rack unit compact IDU, 1+0 configuration, 2/4/8/16xE1 1 rack unit compact IDU, 1+1 configuration, 2/4/8xE1 1 rack unit compact IDU, 1+1 configuration, 2/4/8/16xE1
Ethernet module V12252 can be housed inside IDU, as option, for Ethernet traffic. Compact IDUs consist of a single circuit board plugged into a wired shelf. Line interfaces house tributary connections and, through a multiplexing/demultiplexing and bit insertion/extraction process, supply/receive the aggregate signal to/from the modulator/demodulator. Line interfaces carry out the digital processing for the QAM modulator and, in 1+1 configuration, duplicate the main signals on the transmission side and perform the changeover on the receive

side. Interfaces towards the ODU house the cable interface for bidirectional communication between ODU and IDU, and implement the IF section of the modemodulator. IDU power supply units process battery voltage and supply power to IDU and ODU circuits. The controller section of the radio houses service channels interfaces, stores IDU firmware, interfaces SIAE management systems though dedicated supervision ports, and routes external and internal alarms to relay contacts.
5.4.2
ODU
The ODU houses the interface towards the IDU on one side, and towards the antenna flange on the other. The ODU shifts the incoming QAMmodulated carrier to RF frequency through a double conversion. The opposite occurs at the receive side, when the IFconverted carrier is sent to the IDU demodulator. Antenna coupling in 1+1 systems is done through a balanced or unbalanced hybrid.
5.5
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AL radio can be controlled locally and remotely via SIAE supervision software: SCT/LCT: a Windowsbased management system for small networks (up to 100 NE) NMS5LX: a Linuxbased management system for smalltomedium networks (up to 750 NE) NMS5UX: a Unixbased management system for large networks (up to 2500 NE)
These systems provide a friendly graphic interface complying with current standard use of keyboards, mouse and windows.
5.5.1
Management ports
AL radio terminals connect to the supervision network via the following communication ports: Ethernet 10BaseT Port USB port
5.5.2
Protocols
SNMP along with IP or OSI protocol stacks are used to manage AL operation.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INDOOR UNIT PDH INTERFACES
8.1
1+0/1+1 IDU VERSIONS
The following functional description covers the versions the IDU consists of as shown in chapter Equipment technical specifications. The IDU is made up of a single motherboard that houses all the circuitry realizing the following functionalities: Line interface Radio interface Equipment controller IDU loops
8.1.1
Line interface
The line interface performs the following operations: multiplexing process of the input tributaries generation of the aggregate frame by aggregating multiplexed tributaries and service channel.
Bit extraction and demultiplexing process happens at the receive side. Tx side Refer to Fig. 8.1. The 2 Mbit/s input signal is code converted from HDB3 to NRZ format before being multiplexed. The multiplexing scheme depends on the number and the bit rate of the input tributaries. Attached figures show different multiplexing scheme as follows: Fig. 8.2 2x2 Mbit/s multiplexing. The mux performs stuffing operation on each single tributary and generates a proprietary frame embedding the two tributaries to be sent to the Bit Insertion. Opposite operation occurs at the Rx side.

Fig. 8.3 4x2 Mbit/s multiplexing. The mux aggregates the four 2 Mbit/s tributaries generating a 8448 kbit/s frame as per Recc. G.742. The multiplexed signal is then sent to the Bit Insertion. Opposite operation occurs at the Rx side. Fig. 8.4 8x2 Mbit/s multiplexing. The eight 2 Mbit/s tributaries are grouped in two 4x2 Mbit/s groups each of one generating a G742 frame structure at 8448 kbit/s to be sent to the next Bit Insertion. Opposite operation occurs at the Rx side. Fig. 8.5 16x2 Mbit/s multiplexing. The sixteen 2 Mbit/s tributaries are grouped in four 4x2 Mbit/s groups each of one generating a G.742 frame structure at 8448 kbit/s. A further multiplexing of the achieved four 8448 kbit/s streams will generate a frame structure at 34368 kbit/s as per Recc. G.751. This latter is to be sent to the Bit Insertion. Opposite operation occurs at the Rx side.
The multiplexed tributaries are then sent to the B.I. for aggregate frame generation occurring at the following bit rate depending on various versions implemented: Tab. 8.1 Version
2x2 Mbit/s 4x2 Mbit/s 8x2 Mbit/s 16x2 Mbit/s
Aggregate frame
4860 kbit/s 9720 kbit/s 19440 kbit/s 38880 kbit/s
The aggregate frame contains: the main signal from the MUX(s) the framed service signal from the service interface the EOC signals for supervision message propagation towards the remote terminal the frame alignment word the bits dedicated to the FEC.
All the synch. signals to perform multiplexing (demultiplexing) and BI (BE) process are achieved from a x0 at 40 MHz. The aggregate frame thus generates is sent to the QAM modulator.
Rx side Refer to Fig. 8.6. At Rx side the Bit extraction separates the main multiplexed signal from the service signal and then after a proper demultiplexing process (opposite to that previously described at the Tx side) sends them to the output interfaces.

Radio interface
This functionality provides the following: QAM modemodulation power supply to IDU and ODU telemetry IDU/ODU cable interface
QAM modemodulation Modulation side See Fig. 8.7. The aggregate signal from the BI undergoes the following process in digital form: serial to parallel conversion differential encoding generation of the shaped modulating signals feeding the IF part of the QAM modulator.
This latter comprises: recovery low pass filter to eliminate signal periodicity 330 MHz local oscillator a 90 phase shifter to supply two mixers with two in quadrature carriers
The thus obtained 330 MHz QAM modulated carrier is then sent to the cable interface for connection with ODU.
QAM modemodulation Demodulation side See Fig. 8.7. The 140 MHz, 4 or 16QAM modulated carrier from the ODU is reaching the IDU through the cable interface. The connection to the demodulator input is made via a cable equalizer for cable loss compensation. The IF section of the QAM demodulator extracts the I and Q analogue signals then digital converted for the following processing: clock recovery baseband equalisation and filtering bit polarity decision

differential decoding parallel to serial conversion to recover the aggregate signal.
The aggregate signal is then sent to a frame alignment circuit and CRC analysis and then to the error corrector to achieve the BER extimate, the PM and HBER/LBER alarms. Power supply Refer to Fig. 8.7. The 48 V battery voltage feeds the IDU and ODU circuitry. The service voltages for the IDU feeding are achieved through a DC/DC converter for +3.6 V generation and a step down circuit for 5V. Both voltages are protected against overvoltages and overcurrents. The power to the ODU is given by the same battery running through the interconnection cable. A breaker protects the battery against cable failure. Telemetry IDU/ODU Refer to Fig. 8.1 and Fig. 8.7. The dialogue IDU/ODU is madeup by the main controller and associated peripherals within the ODU. Controls for ODU management and alarm reporting is performed making use of a 388 kbit/s framed signals. The transport along the interconneting cable is performed via two FSK modulated carriers: 17.5 MHz from IDU to ODU; 5.5 MHZ from ODU to IDU. Cable interface Refer to Fig. 8.7. This circuit permits to communicate to the far ODU through the interconnecting cable. It is mainly made up of a set of filters that: combine the 330 MHz, QAM modulated carrier/the 17.5 MHz carrier/the power supply separate the 140 MHz QAM modulated carrier and the 5.5 MHz carrier
8.1.3
Equipment controller
The controller functionality performs the following: houses the equipment software for equipment management interfaces the SCT/LCT program through supervision ports receive external alarms and route them to relay contacts along with the internal alarms generated by the equipment.
The equipment software permits to control and manage all the equipment functionality. It is distributed on two hardware levels: main controller and ODU peripheral controller. The dialogue between main and peripheral controllers is shown in Fig. 8.8.

Main controller The activities executed by the main controller are the following: Communication management: it makes use of SNMP as management protocol and IP or IP over OSI as communication protocol stacks. See Fig. 8.9 for details. The interface ports for the equipment management are the following: LAN Ethernet 10BaseT USB port used for SCT/LCT connection EOC embedded within the PDH radio frame for connection to the remote NEs
Login: the main controller manages the equipment or network login/logout by setting and then controlling the users ID and relevant password. Database (MIB): validation and storing in a nonvolatile memory of the equipment configuration parameters. Equipment configuration: distribution of the parameters stored in the MIB towards the peripheral Ps for their attuation in addition to the controls from user not stored in the MIB (i.e. loops, manual forcing etc...). Alarm monitoring: acquisition, filtering and correlation of the alarms gathered from slaved Ps. Local logger and alarm sending to the connected managers: SCT/LCT NMS5UX. Management of the alarm signalling on the LIM front panel. Performances: PM management as per Recc. G.828. Download: the main controller is equipped with two flash memory banks containing the running program (active bank) and the standby program (inactive bank). This permits to download a new software release to the inactive bank without distributing the traffic. Bank switch enables the new release to be used. Download activity is based on FTP protocol which downloads application programs, FPGA configuration, configuration files on main controller inactive bank or directly on the peripheral controllers.
Peripheral controllers The peripheral controllers take place within the ODU and are slaved to main controller with the task of activating controls and alarm reporting of dedicated functionality.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INDOOR UNIT ETHERNET INTERFACES
The indoor unit can be provided with Ethernet module option (V12252). In this way the equipment has both 2 Mbit/s and Ethernet ports, and the bit rate assigned to Ethernet traffic is the nominal capacity of the radio minus enabled tributaries. Description that follows covers Ethernet signal treatment, 2 Mbit/s signal treatment has been described in previous chapter.
9.1
TREATMENT OF ETHERNET SIGNALS
In the place of V11 or (V28 + RS232) board it is possible to insert Ethernet Module. In this way the IDU is equipped with the following interfaces: 3x electrical interface Ethernet 10/100 BaseT IEEE 802.3 16x2 Mbit/s (E1) interface total capacity from 2 to 64 Mbit/s
Most important functions are: multiplexing of 2 Mbit/s tributaries concatenation of 2 Mbit/s streams LAPS Link Access Procedure SDH (ITU X.86) for concatenated 2 Mbit/s bridge/switch between a local LAN port and the radio LAN port MAC switching MAC address learning MAC address ageing Ethernet interface with autonegotiation 10/100, full duplex, half duplex Ethernet interface with Flow Control, Back Pressure, MDI/MDX crossover network segmentation into bridge

virtual LAN as per IEEE 802.1q (anyone from 0 to 4095 VID for a maximum of 64 memory location) (see Fig. 9.2) layer 2 QoS, priority management as per IEEE 802.1p (see Fig. 9.2) layer 3 ToS/DSCP (see Fig. 9.5) packet forwarding
A block diagram of IDU with Ethernet module can be found into Fig. 9.1. In the IDU with Ethernet module there is a switch with 3 external ports and 1internal ports. External ports are electrical Ethernet 10/100BaseT interfaces placed on the front panel. Internal port is connected to radio side stream. Ethernet traffic coming from external ports goes to internal port radio side. The radio side port is connected to one or two streams group of concatenated 2 Mbit/s. One stream for capacity up to 16x2 Mbit/s and two streams for capacity of 12 16 2 Mbit/s streams, plus other 16x2 Mbit/s streams in case of maximum capacity. The concatenated 2 Mbit/s are assembled in a protocol called LAPS similar to HDLC. In Tx side Ethernet traffic is packet into a protocol called LAPS similar to HDLC. The resulting stream is divided into the used number of 2 Mbit/s streams. The 2 Mbit/s streams are then multiplexed, together with 2 Mbit/s arriving from front panel, the resulting stream goes to the modulator, see Fig. 9.1. In Rx the stream arriving from the demodulator is divided into the 2 Mbit/s streams, then the 2 Mbit/s not used into the front panel 2 Mbit/s are concatenated and sent to Ethernet circuits. Resulting stream, after LAPS protocol control, is sent to switch internal port.
9.1.1
2 Mbit/s tributaries
Tributary channels at 2 Mbit/s (E1), connected to relevant connectors into front panel, are multiplexed as into standard IDU, see previous chapter. From 0 to 16 tributaries can be selected to be used via SCT/LCT program, all the other available 2 Mbit/s are sent to switch internal port.
9.1.2
Electrical Ethernet interface
The electrical Ethernet/Fast Ethernet interfaces are type IEEE 802.3 10/100BaseT with RJ45 connector. For input or output signals at RJ45 please refer to User connection chapter. Cable can be UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) or STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) Category 5. Standard coding: Ethernet 10 Mbit/s: Manchester Fast Ethernet 100 Mbit/s: MLT3 ternary

Input and output pins are galvanically isolated through a transformer to reduce EMI every pin at RJ45 connector is terminated even if not used two signal lines are equipped with low capacity secondary protection to sustain residuals of possible electrostatic discharges (ESD). With LCT/SCT program it is possible to activate autonegotiation (speed/duplex/flow control) on 10/100BaseT interface.
9.1.3
Front panel LEDs of Ethernet ports
There are 2 Leds for any Ethernet interface: DUPLEX: color green, On = full duplex, OFF = half duplex LINK/ACT: color green, ON = link up without activity, OFF = link down, BLINKING = link with activity on Rx and Tx.
9.1.4
Bridge/switch function
A radio link equipped with Ethernet module can operate like a bridge/switch between two or more separated LANs with the following advantags: to connect two separated LANs at a distance even greater than the maximum limits of 2.5 km (for Ethernet) to connect two LANs via radio within a complex digital network to keep separated the traffic into two LANs towards MAC filtering to get a total traffic greater than traffic in a single LAN.
The bridge realized into Ethernet module is a transparent bridge (IEEE 802.1 part D) into the same Vlan described by VLAN Configuration Table. The bridge works at data link level, Layer 2 of OSI pile, and leave untouched Layer 3. The bridge takes care to sendo traffic from a local LAN, to remote LAN.. Routing is only on the basic of Level 2 addresses, sublevel MAC. The operation of bridge is the following: when a bridge interface receives a MAC frame, the bridge on the basis of destination address, decides which LAN to send it if destination address is on originating LAN the frame is descarded if destination address is a known address (towards address learning procedure) and is present into local address table the frame is sent only on destintion LAN (MAC switching) otherwise the frame is sent to all ports with the same VLAN ID (flooding).
A bridge is very different from a repeater, which copies slavishly everything that receives from a line on all the others. The bridge, in fact, acquires a frame, analyzes it, reconstruct it and routes
57

TITOLO DEL CAPITOLO
CM.89012.I
it. The bridge compensates also the different speeds of the interfaces, therefore an input can be at 100 Mbit/s and output at 10 Mbit/s. The mechanism is the following: from the moment of its activation, the bridge examines all the frames that arrive it from different LANs, and on these basis it builds its routing tables progressively. In fact, every received frame allows the bridge to know on what LAN the sending station is located (MAC address learning). every frame that arrives to the bridge is rebroadcasted: if the bridge has the destination address into the routing table, sends the frame only into the corresponding LAN otherwise the frame is sent to all the LANs except the originating (flooding) as soon as the bridge increases its knowledge of different machines, the retransmission becomes more and more selective (and therefore more efficient)
the routing tables are updated every some minutes (programmable), removing addresses not alive in the last period (so, if a machine is moved, within a few minute it is addressed correctly) (MAC address ageing).
The whole process of bridging is restricted to the ports which are members of the same Vlan as described into Vlan Configuration Table.
9.1.5
Ethernet Full Duplex function
The first realizations of the Ethernet network were on coaxial cable with the 10Base5 standard. According to this standard Ethernet interfaces (e.g. PC) are connected to the coaxial cable in parallel and are normally in receiving mode. Only one PC, at a certain time, transmits on the cable, the others are receiving, so this is half duplex mode, and only one PC uses the recived message. Then the coaxial cable was progressively replaced by the pairs cable Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) as per 10BaseT standard. Normally there are four pairs into UTP Cat5 cable but two pairs are used with 10BaseT, one for Tx one for Rx. Into 10Base5 and 10BaseT standards, network protocols are the same the difference lays into the electrical interface. UTP cable is connected point to point betwen a hub and a Ethernet interface. Network structure is a star where the server is connected to a hub and from this a UTP cable is laid down for each Ethernet interface starts. The further step is to replace the hub with a more powerful equipment, e.g. a switch. In this case it is possible to activate transmission on both pairs at the same time, on one twisted pair for one direction, on the other pair for opposite direction. Thus we obtain full duplex transmission on UTP. Activating full duplex transmission it is possible to obtain a theoretical increase of performance of nearly 100%. Full duplex mode can be activated into 10/100BaseT interfaces manually or with autonegotiation 100BaseFx operates always into full duplex mode.

Link Loss Forwarding
Link Loss Forwarding (LLF) is an alarm status of ethernet interface. LLF can be enabled or disabled. If LLF is enabled an US radio alarm condition will generate the alarm status of Ethernet interface blocking any transmission to it. LLF can be enabled for each 3 ports at front panel. With LLF enabled the equipment connected (routers, switches so on) can be notified that radio link is not available and can temporarerly reroute the traffic.
9.1.7
MDI/MDIX crossover
The Ethernet electrical interface can be defined by SCT program as MDI or MDIX to crossover between pairs so that external crossover cable is not required.
9.1.8
VLAN functionality
LIM Ethernet module works with IEEE 802.1q and 802.1p tag for VLANs and QoS see Fig. 9.2. The virtual LAN (VLAN) are logical separated subnets so that all the stations, into VLAN, seem to be into the same physical LAN segment even if they are geographically separated. The VLAN are used to separate traffic on the same physical LAN too. Station operating on the same physical LAN but on different VLAN work in separated mode thus they do not share broadcast and multicast messages. This results in a reduction of broadcast generated traffic and above all we get more security thanks to network separation. Tag position and structure are shown into Fig. 9.2. Tag is made up with: a fixed word of 2 bytes 3 bits for priority according 802.1p 1 fixed bit 12 bits VLAN identifier (VLAN ID) according 802.1q.
Switch crossconnections are based on Vlan Configuration Table where input and output ports or only output ports should be defined for any used VID. Vlan Configuration Table has 64 position for Vlan ID range from 1 to 4095.
9.1.9
Switch organized by port
The switch can be organized on port basis treating both Tagged and Untagged packets in the same way.
59

TITOLO DEL CAPITOLO
CM.89012.I
For each input port it is possible to define where to route the incoming traffic; one or more of the 3 other ports can be Enabled to exit the incoming traffic. It is possible, also, to route back the incoming traffic into the same port. This type of connection are monodirectional. For a dibirectional connection between a generic Lan A and Lan B it is necessary to set the connection from Lan A to Lan B and from Lan B to Lan A. The IDU with Ethernet module has 3 physical ports and one internal port, radio side. The internal switch can connect two or more ports together. Then MAC address bridging rules will be applied to this packet. It is possible to select that a packet follows the description of Vlan Configuration Table for its Vlan ID. Another selection is to follow only Vlan Configuration Table. Packets can exit from a port as Unmodified or all Tagged either all Untagged. Unteggad packets will take default tags. For output operations there are 3 selections: Unmodified: tagged packets keep their tag. Untagged packets remain untagged Tagged: all the packets will exit tagged, tagged packets keep their tag, untagged packets take Default VID of incoming port. Untagged: all the packets will exit untagged.
9.1.10 Switch organized by VLAN ID

Vlan Configuration Table Vlan Configuration Table defines a list of Vlan ID, For any Vlan ID some ports are members of Vlan others are not members. Ports members of a Vlan are allowed to receive and send packets with that Vlan. Switch dinamically assignes packets to the output port according their VLAN ID. Packets arent sent out to that port unless they belong to one of the Vlan of which the port is a member. A port can be a member of a Vlan or many Vlan. A port can be a member from 1 to 64 Vlans but tagged packets are dropped if their input port is not a member of packets Vlan. After the control of packet and port Vlan membership MAC address bridging rules will be applied to this packet.
Ingress Filtering Check This is a process to check an incoming packet to compare its Valn ID to input ports Vlan membership. With Ingress Filtering Check it is possible to permit only to tagged packets to enter the switch. If the port is not member of the Vlan n. XX all the incoming packets with Vlan ID XX will be dropped.
60

TITOLO DEL CAPITOLO
CM.89012.I
CM.89012.I
There are 3 option into Ingress Filtering Check to manage incoming packets: Disable: all Tagged and Untagged packets can transit into the switch following setting of swicth organized by port. Fallback: Untagged frames follow the rules of switch organized by port, Tagged frames with Vlan ID described into the Vlan Configuration Table follow the rules of the table, Tagged frames with Vlan ID not described into the Vlan Configuration Table follow the rules of switch organized by port. Secure: Untagged frames cannot enter the switch, Tagged frames with Vlan ID described into the Vlan Configuration Table follow the rules of the table, Tagged frames with Vlan ID not described into the Vlan Configuration Table cannot enter the switch.
Operations at the input. At the input port the packet is received and a switching decision must be made. The switch analyse the Vlan ID (if present) and decides whether and where to forward the frame. If the received packet is untagged, the switch sends the packet to the port specified into incoming port Lan per port settings. If the packet is tagged the switch check the other 3 destination ports to find at least one with the same Vlan ID and put the packet into output port queue. If the Vlan ID is not listed into Vlan Configuration Table the switch sends the packet to the port specified into incoming port Lan per port settings. Then MAC address bridging rules will be applied to this packet. Operations at the output. For each output port there are 3 selections for outgoing packets. Disable output port Enable unchanged: tagged packets keep their tag. Untagged packets remain untagged. Enable tagged: all the packets will exit tagged with Vlan ID specified into Vlan Configuration Table, tagged packets keep their tag, untagged packets take Default VID of incoming port. Untagged: all the packets will exit untagged.
9.1.11 Layer 2, Priority function, QoS, 802.1p

Some services as voice overIP and videoconference have some time limits to work properly. A solution is to increase the priority of time sensitive packets. In this case random crowding coming from other services affects the delay of prioritized packets a lot less. Into LIM Ethernet module different priority of incoming packets is managed using Tag defined into IEEE 802.1p (see Fig. 9.2). Every switch output port holds 4 output queues: queue 4 has highest priority, queue 0 has the lowest priority (see Fig. 9.3). Priority can be organized by incoming port or by incoming priority tag: Priority by incoming port. For Untagged packets at each input ports it is decided to send the packets to one of the 4 queues of output ports defining which is the Default Priority Queue: Queue = 0, 1, 2, 3. For Tagged packets it is necessary to Disable Priority so they will go in the same queue of Untagged packets.

Priority by incoming priority. For tagged packets for each priority tag (3 bits = for 7 priority levels) it is possible to define where to send the packets, into Queue from 0 to 3. Priority must be enable on 802.1p mode only or IpToS mode only (see next paragraph) or first check 802.1p mode and IpToS mode either first check IpToS mode only (see next paragraph) or first check 802.1p mode and IpToS mode either first check IpToS mode and then 808.1q. For untagged packets the priority is defined only by incoming port.
Outgoing packet policy at output ports can be WFQ (Wait Fair Queue) with fixed proportional output policy 8 packets from Queue 3, 4 from Queue 2, 4 from Queue 1, 1 from Queue 0.
Layer 3, Priority function, QoS, IPV4 ToS (DSCP) Only for IP packets it is possible to use incoming Layer 3 ToS (see Fig. 9.4) to prioritize incoming packets. The 8 bits available can be read as 7 bits of ToS or 6 bits of DSCP as shown in Fig. 9.5. According priority defined into ToS/DSCP the packet is sent into high priority queue low priority queue of output ports. With SCT/LCT program it is possible to select a different output queue for any ToS/DSCP priority level at each input port.

DESCRIPTION OF THE OUTDOOR UNIT
11.1
GENERAL
The 1+0 ODU (refer to Fig. 11.1) consists of a two shell aluminium mechanical structure, one shell housing all the ODU circuits, the other forming the covering plate. On the ODU are accessible: the N type connector for cable interfacing IDU and ODU the BNC connector for connection to a multimeter with the purpose to measure the received field strength a ground bolt.
The 1+1 hot standby version (refer to Fig. 11.2) consist of two 1+0 ODUs mechanically secured to a structure housing the hybrid for the antenna connection.
11.2
TRANSMIT SECTION
Refer to block diagram shown in Fig. 11.3. The 330 MHz QAM modulated carrier from the cable interface (see chapter 11.4) is forwarded to a mixer passing through a cable equalizer for cable loss compensation up to 40 dB at 330 MHz. The mixer and the following bandpass filter give rise to a second IF Tx carrier the frequency of which depends on the go/return frequency value. The mixer is of SHP type. The IF Tx frequency is P controlled. Same happens to Rx IF and RF local oscillators. This latter is common to both Tx and Rx sides.
71
1.
TITOLO DEL CAPITOLO
CM.89012.I
The IF carrier is converted to RF and then amplified making use of a MMIC circuit. The conversion mixer is SSB type with side band selection. The power at the MMIC output can be manually attenuated, 1 dB step, by 20 dB (f 18 GHz) or 40 dB (f < 18 GHz). Total attenuation is 40 dB. The automatic adjustment is performed making use of an ATPC (see paragraph 11.5 for details). The regulated output power is kept constant against amplifier stage gain variation by a feedback including the AGC. Before reaching the antenna side the RF signal at the output of MMIC passes through the following circuits: a decoupler plus detector diode to measure the output power a circulator to protect the amplifier stages against possible circuit mismatch. a ON/OFF switch for 1+1 operation a 0 or 20 dB attenuator (f 18 GHz) to made up a total attenuation of 40 dB an RF bandpass filter for antenna coupling.
An RF coupler plus a detector and a shift oscillator made up the RF loop which is enabled upon receiving a P control. The RF loop permits the Tx power to return back to receive side thus controlling the total local radio terminal performance.
11.3
RECEIVE SECTION
The RF signal from the Rx bandpass filter is sent to a low noise amplifier that improves the receiver sensitivity. The following downconverter translates the RF frequency to approximately 765 MHz. The conversion mixer is SSB type. The sideband selection is given through a P control. A second down converter generates the 140 MHz IF carrier to be sent to the demodulator within the IDU. The level of the IF carrier is kept constant to 5 dBm thank to the IF amplifier stages, AGC controlled, distributed in the IF chain. In addition the AGC gives a measure of the receive RF level. Between two amplifiers a bandpass filter assures the required selectivity to the receiver. The filter is SAW type and the bandwidth depends on the transmitted capacity.

CABLE INTERFACE
The cable interface permits to interface the cable interconnecting IDU to ODU and viceversa. It receives/transmits the following signals: 330 MHz (from IDU to ODU) 140 MHz (from ODU to IDU) 17.5 MHz (from IDU to ODU) 5.5 MHz (from ODU to IDU) remote power supply.
The 17.5 MHz and 5.5 MHz FSK modulated carriers, carry the telemetry channel. This latter consists of two 388 kbit/s streams one from IDU to ODU with the information to manage the ODU (RF power, RF frequency, capacity, etc...) while the other, from ODU to IDU, sends back to IDU measurements and alarms of the ODU. The ODU management is made by a P.
11.5
ATPC OPERATION
The ATPC regulates the RF output power of the local transmitter depending on the value of the RF level at the remote terminal. This value has to be preset from the local terminal as threshold high and low. The difference between the two thresholds must be equal or higher than 3 dB. As soon as the received level crosses the preset threshold level low (see Fig. 11.6) due to the increase of the hop attenuation, a microP at the received side of the remote terminal sends back to the local terminal a control to increase the transmitted power. The maximum ATPC range is 40 dB (f < 18 GHz) and 20 dB (f 18 GHz). If the hop attenuation decreases and the threshold high is crossed then the control sent by the microP causes the output power to decrease. ATPC range can be reduced from the maximum value to 0 dB, by 1 dB step, consequently to a reduction of the output maximum power through an adjusted attenuation.

1+1 Tx SYSTEM
The two ODUs are coupled to the antenna side via a balanced or unbalanced hybrid. 1+1 Tx switching occurs in the 1+1 hot standby 1 antenna or 2 antennas versions as shown in Fig. 11.4 and Fig. 11.5. The transmitter switchover is electromechanic type and consists of two ON/OFF switches within the two ODUs that assure at least 40 dB insulation on the standby transmitter. Transmit alarm priority is shown in Tab. 11.1.

POWER SUPPLY
The battery voltage is dropped from the cable interface and then sent to a DC/DC converter to generate three stabilized output voltages to be distributed to the ODU circuitry: +3.5 V a voltage comprised between +6.2 V and +8.2 V to power amplifiers operating at different frequency bands a 12 V through an inverter circuit.
Each voltage is protected against overcurrent with automatic restart. Protection against overvoltage occurs as soon as the output voltage raises more than 15% respect to the nominal voltage. The restart is automatic.

LINEUP OF ETHERNET TRAFFIC (FOR IDU WITH V12252 ETHERNET MODULE ONLY)
21.1
GENERAL
This paragraph deals with lineup of V12252 Ethernet module with details of SCT/LCT program related only to Ethernet application. Assuming that the radio link is already in service, with correct frequency, output power and correct antenna alignment, the line up procedure for different kinds of connection set up of a radio link AL, equipped with LIM Ethernet/2 Mbit/s module, is hereafter described: 1. 2. Local Lan1 port to remote Lan1 port connection LAN per port, see Fig. 21.1 Local Lan1 port to remote Lan1 port connection with only VLANs
3. 3 to 1 port connections, see Fig. 21.13. Settings here below are intended to be done both into local and remote radio equipment.

The lineup of Ethernet traffic is made with the help of SCT/LCT program. Please refer to Fig. 21.2. First selection is Ethernet throughput and modulation scheme, in this example we select 16 Mbit/s and modulation 16QAM (max throughput and modulation scheme depend on terms of licence provided by Siae Microelettronica). Select configuration 1+0 or 1+1 according system requirements. Inside LCT, select Tributary window. If 2 Mbit/s tributaries are needed, inside the Tributary window it is possible to activate a 2 Mbit/s input/output on the front panel. When the activation of required 2 Mbit/s tributaries is completed, all the others 2 Mbit/s streams are automatically used for the Ethernet traffic. For instance with a 8x2 Mbit/s capacity, if we use two 2 Mbit/s the capacity assigned to Ethernet circuits is automatically set to 6x2 = 12 Mbit/s full duplex.
Fig. 21.2
Selection of Ethernet Throughput
See Fig. 21.3 for General settings for the switch. All the used ports must be Enabled, so enable Lan1 and Internal Port, see Fig. 21.4. The other ports should be disabled. The correct cable crossover arrangement must be selected too (see Fig. 21.4). At the end of Lineup, enable LLF if needed.

For Untagged traffic, connections are done with Lan per port selections. Referring to Fig. 21.5 incoming traffic at Lan1 exits at Internal Port and into Fig. 21.7 incoming traffic at Internal Port exits at lan1 port. This connection are done for all Untagged traffic and all Tagged packets with Vlan Id not described into Vlan Configuration Table. If Vlan Configuration Table is blank all Tagged traffic follows the rules of Lan per port. Possible selections of Ingress Filtering Check: 1. 2. Disable 802.1q: no check of Virtual Lan tag is made and all packets follow Lan per port settings Fallback: if Tagged packets have their Vlan Id into Vlan Configuration Table they follow the connection described into the table, otherwise they follow the Lan per port settings as Untagged packets Secure: no Untagged packet transits; only Tagged packets with Vlan Id listed into the table can transit. For all pass configuration, Disable 802.1 should be selected. With Egress Mode as Unmodified the outgoing packets at Lan1 port exit Untagged or Tagged exactly as they were Untagged or Tagged at the incoming port.

LOCAL LAN1 PORT TO REMOTE LAN1 PORT (WITH VLANs)
Settings are done to transfer only Tagged traffic within Vlans. We want that Vlan 701, 702, 710 and 1, 2, 3 can pass into the radio link and all the other Tagged or Untagged packets should be blocked. The line up of Ethernet module is made with the help of LCT/SCT program. Please refer to Fig. 21.2. First selection is Ethernet throughput and modulation scheme, in this example we select 16 Mbit/s and modulation 16QAM (max throughput and modulation scheme depends on terms of licence provided by Siae Microelettronica). Select configuration 1+0 or 1+1 according system requirements. Inside LCT, select tributary window. If 2 Mbit/s tributaries are needed, inside the tributary window it is possible to activate a 2 Mbit/s input/output on the front panel. When the activation of required 2 Mbit/s tributaries is completed, all the others 2 Mbit/s streams are automatically used for the Ethernet traffic. for instance with a 16 Mbit/s capacity if we use two 2 Mbit/s the capacity assigned to ethernet circuits is automatically set to 162x2 = 12 Mbit/s full duplex. See Fig. 21.3 for general settings for the switch. All the used ports must be enabled, so enable Lan1 and Internal Port, see Fig. 21.4. The other ports should be disabled. The correct Cable crossover arrangement must be selected too. Enable LLF if needed, only at the end of line up. Vlan settings for Lan1 and Internal Port should be like in Fig. 21.9 with Ingress Filtering Check as Secure and Engress Mode as Tagged. With this setting only Tagged packets with Vlan ID listed into the Vlan Configuration Table can transit. All Untagged packets are blocked at the incoming port and outgoing Tagged packets dont change. A packet with Vlan ID XX can enter into the switch only if Incoming Port (Ingress port) is a member of the Vlan XX, same packet will exit only from ports (Engress Port) which are members of Vlan XX. Vlan membership is described into Vlan Configuration Table. A port can be member of no one, one or more Vlans. See Fig. 21.10 for Vlan Configuration Table settings for our example.

Tagged incoming packet can be treated with FIFO policy or on the basis of their 802.1p priority tag and ToS/DSCP value for IP packets. There are 4 queue at each output port. The decision about to which output queue to send a packet is defined into Ethernet switch window selections for 802.1p tag. Into Ethernet switch window it is possible to select ToS/DSCP button to open window ToS/DSCP, in this window each incoming ToS/DSCP value is associated with an output queue so it is possible to change the priority of the incoming packet. When no info on priority is available, the packet is sent to Default Priority Queue using FIFO policy. Into Lan1 window select Priority (802.1q), into priority box there are some selections: with Disable switch doesnt look at priority tag; with 802.1p switch looks at Tag 802.1p only; with IpToS for IP packets only switch looks to ToS/DSCP identifier (into IP frame) only; with 802.1p IpToS switch looks first to 802.1p tag and secondly to ToS/DSCP, see Fig. 21.12; with IpToS802.1p switch looks first to ToS/DSCP and secondly to Tag 802.1p. Note: with IpToS switch looks to IP packet and ToS/DSCP doesnt matter if the packets are tagged with 802.1p or not. In this example incoming tagged are tagged and it is necessary to transfer the packets with no change so they must exit from output ports tagged, see Fig. 21.11 and Fig. 21.12.

In this example 3 local port must communicate with corresponding remote ports. All the ports share the same radio channel but traffic originated and directed to Lan1 should be kept separated from traffic from Lan2 and Lan3 and viceversa. Lan1 to Lan1 connection should transfer tagged packets with Vlan 1, 701, 760 and untagged packets. Unspecified tagged packets must be stopped. Lan2 and Lan3 have the same requirements. For all connections IP packets with high priority TOS should transferred at minimum delay.

3 TO 1 PORT CONNECTIONS, UNTAGGED TRAFFIC
SETTINGS
FOR
The lineup of Ethernet traffic is made with the help of LCT/SCT. Please refer to Fig. 21.1. First selection is Ethernet throughput and modulation scheme, in this example we select 16 Mbit/s and modulation 16QAM (max throughput and modulation scheme depend on terms of licence provided by Siae Microelettronica). Select configuration 1+0 or 1+1 according system requirements. Inside LCT, select Tributary window. If 2 Mbit/s tributaries are needed, inside the tributary window it is possible to activate a 2 Mbit/s input/output on the front panel. When the activation of required 2 Mbit/s tributaries is completed, all the others 2 Mbit/s streams are automatically used for the Ethernet traffic. For instance with a 8x2 Mbit/s capacity if we use two 2 Mbit/s the capacity assigned to Ethernet circuits is automatically set to 6x2 = 12 Mbit/s full duplex.

Vlan Configuration Table will be defined in order to group traffic from Lan1, Lan2, Lan3 to Port1. All the used ports must be Enabled. Untagged traffic transits only if the selection for Ingress Filtering Check is disabled at each input port and a separated Vlan for Untagged traffic is set up for each port. See Fig. 21.3, Fig. 21.4, Fig. 21.13, Fig. 21.14 and Fig. 21.15. Each port of the switch must be associated with a different Default VLAN ID in order to maintain the traffic coming from different separated LANs, Lan1 with default VID 3301, Lan2 with default VID 3302, Lan3 with default VID 3303, for Lan1 see Fig. 21.15 and Fig. 21.16. The correct Cable Crossover arrangement must be selected too.

Vlan 3301, 3302, 3303 are allowed to exit at Port1 with tags (Tagged). Different default Tags allow to keep separate the traffic from Lan1, Lan2 and Lan3 exiting at Port 1. At the remote end the traffic is split and forwarded from Port1 to Lan1, Lan 2 and Lan3 without Tag to preserve the original format.

With the above settings inside the VLAN configuration Table only Untagged traffic is forwarded accross the bridge. The same settings should be done inside the remote equipment. The above example shows the Virtual Lan Configuration Table in case of a link carrying the traffic of 3 independent LANs connected to Lan1, Lan2, Lan3, which is split at the remote end among the outgoing Lan1, Lan2, Lan3 ports, while using a common radio link. To prioritize some IP packets with high ToS/DSCP value it is possible to open PToS/DSCP window from Ethernet switch window and select the values of ToS for which the packet is sent to high priority Queue, see Fig. 21.17.

3 TO 1 PORT CONNECTIONS, SETTINGS FOR TAGGED AND UNTAGGED TRAFFIC
If we want VLAN with Tag 701, 702 and 703 to transit between Lan1 and Port1 it is necessary to define Port 1 and Lan 1 as members of VLAN1, 701, 760 (see Fig. 21.18 for VLAN 701 and do the same for VLAN1, 760). The VLAN Configuration Table will look like Fig. 21.19. For Lan2 and Lan3 we cannot use the same Vlan if we want to maintain traffic from Lan 1, 2, 3 separated. We must change the number of incoming Vlan for instance of 1, 701, 760 use 2001, 2701, 2760 for Lan2 and 3001, 3701, 3760 for Lan3. Connected equipment to Lan2 port should be reprogrammed to use Vlan 2001, 2701, 2760. Connected equipment to Lan3 port should be reprogrammed to use Vlan 3001, 3701, 3760. To prioritize Ip packets with high ToS/DSCP value it is possible to open PToS/DSCP window from Ethernet switch window and select the values of ToS for which the packet is sent to high priority Queue 3, see Fig. 21.17. The same should be done inside the remote equipment.

3 TO 1 CONNECTIONS: EXAMPLES OF PRIORITY MANAGEMENT
Example 1: To assign to Lan1 and Lan3 low priority and to Lan2 high priority, while wanting Tagged and Untagged to be treated in a fair manner on each queue do as follow: select Priority Disable for Lan1, Lan2 and Lan3; select Default Priority Queue equal to Queue 0 for lan1 and Lan3 (see Fig. 21.6). Select Default Priority Queue equal to Queue 3 for Lan2 (as in Fig. 21.20). Outgoing Untagged packets will take priority tag defined into input port, in this case 0. Tagged frames keep their tag. Example 2: Wanting tagged frames to be treated according their actual priority and untagged packets with low priority, all inputs should be configured as in Fig. 21.21. Layer 2 Priority assignment is not modified if inside the second folder of the LanX (1, 2, 3) configuration window Untagged Frame Egress Mode = Unmodified is selected as in Fig. 21.22.

TROUBLESHOOTING
23.1
GENERAL
The AL equipment consists of the following replaceable parts: IDU ODU
Purpose of the troubleshooting is to pinpoint the faulty part and replace it with spare. Warning : the replacement of a faulty IDU with spare causes the spare IDU to be reprogrammed. To the purpose refer to chapter 19 for the relevant procedure.
23.2
TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE
Troubleshooting starts as soon as one of the following alarm condition: IDU/ODU/REM is switched ON on the IDU panel from (see Fig. 23.1) or alarm messages are displayed by managers SCT/LCT. Two methods are used to troubleshoot the cause of fault: loop facilities alarm message processing using the manager SCT/LCT

TITOLO DEL CAPITOLO
CM.89012.I
23.2.1 Loop facilities

The equipment is provided with different loops that help locate the faulty part. Warning : the majority of loops causes the traffic to be lost. The available loops are the following: local tributary loops: usually used to test the cables interfacing the equipment upstreams remote tributary loops: usually used to test the two direction link performance making use of an unused 2 Mbit/s signal. baseband loop: it permits to test the LIM circuits IDU loop: it permits to test the complete IDU (optional) RF loop: it permits to test the complete radio terminal.
23.2.2 Alarm messages processing

When an alarm condition occurs, the equipment generates a number of alarm messages that appear on the SCT windows ie: log history area and equipment view current alarm. Investigation on the alarm message meaning permits to troubleshoot the faulty module. Alarm message organisation The alarms (traps) are organized as alarm grouping relevant to a specific functions performed by the equipment. The alarm grouping is available only in the view current alarm submenu. What follows is the list of the alarm grouping: COMMON alarms which are not related to a specific part of the equipment but relevant to the link as EOC radio link alarm or link telemetry fail. If these alarms are ON the link is lost. Investigation must be made on a possible bad propagation or equipment failure. See the condition of the others alarm grouping. LIM This grouping may generate alarms for the following causes: external fault: tributary loss signal LIM failure: i.e. multiplexer/demultiplexer failure or modulator/demodulator failure. external fault: demodulator fail alarm and local ODU alarm are generated when the ODU becomes faulty. RIM failure power supply alarm along with cable short/open alarms or modulator/demodulator alarms are activated.
RIM This grouping may generate alarms for the following causes:
