2 Overview

Overview

This document describes the configuration principles for single- and multi-mode 3900 series
base stations.

Introduction to 3900 Series Base Stations


The 3900 series base stations, which mainly comprises the baseband unit (BBU) and RF
modules, use the state-of-the-art multimode technology. A uniform design is applied to various
product forms and different installation scenarios. This significantly reduces operators' network
construction and operating costs in site acquisition, capacity expansion, and environmental
protection. The 3900 series base stations provide various evolution solutions from GSM to
UMTS and then to LTE.
l

The BBU supports multimode applications.


Boards working in different modes can be configured in a BBU so that any two or three
among GSM, UMTS, and LTE can share the BBU. In separate-MPT scenarios, one BBU
supports two modes, and two BBUs support three modes. In co-MPT scenarios, one BBU
supports three modes.
NOTE

The BBU in this document includes the BBU3900 and BBU3910.

RRUs and RFUs are radio frequency units and support multimode and multi-band
applications.
With the SDR technology, RF modules support any two or all three modes among GSM,
UMTS and LTE by using different software configurations to meet operators'
requirements. RF modules of different modes can be deployed at one base station.
Therefore, a base station can work in a single mode or any two or all three modes among
GSM, UMTS and LTE.
RF modules working in different frequency bands can also be used together.
High-power RFUs are as follows: MRFUd/MRFUe/WRFUd/WRFUe/CRFUd used
together with the BTS3900 (Ver.C/Ver.D/Ver.E) cabinets.
High-power RRUs are as follows: RRU3829/RRU3929/RRU3942/RRU3841/
RRU3961/RRU3832/RRU3839/RRU3939 that are used together with the DCDU-11B/
DCDU-12B. All other RRUs are low-power RRUs. In addition, the 2100 MHz
AAU3910 and AWS AAU3910 are also high-power RF modules.

It is used between different modes in a separate-MPT base station. For example, GSM&UMTS
indicates a separate-MPT GSM/UMTS dual-mode base station, which can be shortened to GU.

It is used between different modes in a co-MPT base station. For example, GSM*UMTS
indicates a co-MPT GSM/UMTS dual-mode base station, which can be shortened to G*U.

It is used between different modes for the two BBUs in a separate-MPT base station. For
example, GSM&UMTS+LTE indicates a separate-MPT GSM/UMTS/LTE triple-mode base
station, which can be shortened to GU+L.

[]

For example, GSM[UMTS*LTE] indicates which can be shorted to G[U*L].

The mode following the underscore next to UMPT or UBBP is the actual mode in which the
UMPT or UBBP is working. For example, UMPT_GUL is a UMPT working in GUL mode
and UBBP_UL is a UBBP working in UL mode.

GU SDR

GSM and UMTS share the same RF modules.

GL SDR

GSM and LTE share the same RF modules.

UL SDR

UMTS and LTE share the same RF modules.

The BBU is a baseband control unit. It provides a maximum of eight slots for boards. In separateMPT scenarios, the BBU can work in GO, UO, LO, GU, GL, or UL mode. To achieve the GUL
triple-mode application, two BBUs are required. In co-MPT scenarios, only one BBU is required
to achieve the GUL triple-mode application.
In SRAN6.0, the BBU supports the GSM& WCDMA+LTE and GSM&LTE+WCDMA
configurations. In GSM&WCDMA+LTE configuration, GSM and UMTS share one BBU3900
and LTE uses the other BBU3900. In GSM&LTE+WCDMA configuration, GSM and LTE share
one BBU3900 and WCDMA uses the other BBU3900.
SRAN7.0 supports the following triple-mode configurations: GSM&WCDMA+LTE (GSM),
GSM&LTE+WCDMA (GSM), GSM&WCDMA+WCDMA&LTE, and GSM&WCDMA
+WCDMA&LTE (GSM). In GU+L (GSM) mode, GSM and UMTS use one BBU3900 and LTE
uses the other BBU3900; SDR RF modules are connected to the two BBUs to support GL dualmode. In GL+U (GSM) mode, GSM and LTE use one BBU3900 and UMTS uses the other BBU;
SDR RF modules are connected to the two BBUs to support UL dual-mode.In GU+UL mode,
GSM and UMTS use one BBU3900, and UMTS and LTE use the other BBU3900. In GU+UL
(GSM) mode, GSM and UMTS use one BBU3900, and UMTS and LTE use the other BBU3900;
SDR RF modules are connected to the two BBUs to support GL dual-mode.
In SRAN7.0, GU+L (GSM) and GL+U (GSM) configurations are introduced, and SDR RF
modules are connected to two BBU3900s, which requires BBU3900 interconnection. In this
case, the two BBU3900s are interconnected by connecting the UCIU in the root BBU and the
UMPT in the leaf BBU.

BBU3900 (GSM&LTE+WCDMA (GSM)) typical board configuration (GU SDR)

The multimode co-MPT application is supported since SRAN8.0. Added the GSM*WCDMA,
GSM*LTE, WCDMA*LTE, GSM*WCDMA*LTE, and GSM&[WCDMA*LTE]
configurations. The GSM*UMTS, GSM*LTE, UMTS*LTE configurations indicate that any
two of the three modes share one main control board. The GSM*UMTS*LTE configuration
indicates that the three modes share one main control board. The GSM&[UMTS*LTE]
configuration indicates that the UMTS and LTE share one main control board while GSM uses
a GO main control board. In SRAN8.0, it is recommended that one BBU3900 be configured to
support co-MPT mode. If two BBUs are used to support co-MPT, they can be interconnected in
UCIU+UMPT mode.
Note: The asterisk (*) is used between different modes in a co-MPT base station. The modes
contained in square brackets share the same main control board.
From SRAN8.1 onwards, two BBUs that support co-MPT can be interconnected in UMPT
+UMPT mode.
SRAN9.0 and later versions support the BBU3910 (with a fully-interconnected backplane),
which supports enhanced board interconnection technologies, for example, CoMP and CA. The
BBU3910 applies to deployment and capacity expansion scenarios.
Since SRAN9.0, co-MPT and hybrid-MPT in two BBUs are supported, such as [G*U*L]+
[G*U*L] and G&[U*L]+[U*L]. When both BBUs are configured with UMPTs, the UMPT
+UMPT interconnection is recommended to substitute for the UCIU+UMPT interconnection
that is supported since SRAN7.0.
From SRAN9.0, the GUL co-BBP technique is supported, which means that multiple modes
including GSM, UMTS, and LTE can be concurrently configured on one baseband processing

In separate-MPT scenarios, the dual-star CPRI connection is recommended for multimode


RRUs, that is, the baseband processing board of each mode provides CPRI ports for connecting
RRUs.
In co-MPT scenarios, the CPRI MUX topology is recommended for multimode RRUs, that is,
multiple modes share one CPRI cable. If the GSM mode is deployed on a main control board
where co-MPT is applied, a UBRIb must be configured. In UL co-MPT scenario, the WBBPf,
LBBPd, or UBBPd can provide CPRI ports.
The following table lists the CPRI MUX-related specifications of different boards. The number
of boards to be configured is determined by these boards' cell access capabilities. UBBPd boards
introduced in SRAN9.0 have higher CPRI port capabilities and access capabilities than WBBPf/
LBBPd boards.

The total cell access capabilities of a board are the sum of the cell access capability of each CPRI
port on the board. When the cell access capability of a port is maximized, the total cell access
capabilities of the board are restricted. For CPRI MUX on GU or GL dual-mode base stations,
a maximum of two UBRIb boards can be added as required. For CPRI MUX on UL dual-mode
base stations, only one baseband processing board is allowed to provide a CPRI port to deploy
CPRI MUX.

4.2.3.5 Clock and Transmission Board Configurations


This section describes the principles for configuring clock and transmission boards in a BBU.
In SRAN6.0, three modes can be deployed on two BBUs. For example, GSM and UMTS are
deployed on one BBU and LTE mode is deployed on the other BBU, or GSM and LTE are
deployed on one BBU and UMTS mode is deployed on the other BBU. The two BBUs cannot
share transmission resources or clock signals. Configurations of LTE mode in GU+L mode are
the same as those of LTE only mode. In GL+U mode, UMTS configurations are the same as the
configurations in UMTS only mode.
In SRAN7.0, two BBUs can be interconnected to support three modes, such as G&U+L(G) and
G&L+U(G). In addition, co-clock and co-transmission are supported in BBU interconnection
scenarios. In SRAN7.0, the UMPT is introduced to support the mainstream solution of cotransmission. The UTRPc is used for the alternative solution of co-transmission.
In RAN14.0, the UTRPa board is introduced (used only for UMTS) to replace the UTRP3 and
UTRP4 boards, which will enter the EOM phase.
In SRAN8.0, co-MPT is introduced. In co-MPT scenarios, co-transmission is recommended.
The following table lists the principles for configuring clock and transmission boards in a BBU.
NOTE

For details about the specifications of each board, see the following contents in 3900 Series Base Station

4.3 RF Module Configuration


This section describes the principles for configuring RF modules in a 3900 series base station.

4.3.1 RF Module Configuration


The type of RF modules to be used is determined by the frequency band. Each sector is configured
with at least one RF module. The number of RF modules to be configured depends on the number
of sectors, number of carriers, and output power.
The following table lists the relationships between sectors and RF modules.

Configuration Scenario

RF Module Configuration

Transmit diversity

Two TX channels are required for one sector:

2x2 MIMO

l Two 1T modulesa are configured for one sector.

MIMO Prime

l One 2Tb or 4T module is configured for one sector.

DL 4x2 MIMO

Four TX channels are required for one sector:

DL 4x4 MIMO

l Two 2T modules are configured for one sector.


l One 4T module is configured for one sector.
NOTE
1T modules cannot be used in this configuration scenario.

UL 4-way Diversity

Four RX channels are required for one sector:

UL 2x4 multi-user MIMO


(MU-MIMO)

l Two 2R modules are configured for one sector.


l One 4R module is configured for one sector.

a: In versions earlier than SRAN6.0, when two 1T RF modules are configured to support MIMO, the two RF
modules must be cascaded by connecting CPRI ports. From SRAN6.0 onwards, it is recommended that the two
RF modules be cascaded by connecting CPRI ports.
b: In UMTS mode, two 2T RF modules in one sector support UL 4-way diversity but do not support carrier or
power expansion. If RFUs and RRUs are used in the same base station, they cannot operate in the same frequency
band.

The application scenarios supported by RF modules vary according to the working mode of the
RF modules, as shown in the following table.
Table 4-20 RF module configuration restrictions
Mode

Restriction

GSM

l The DRFUs support UL 4-way diversity.


l From GBSS16.0/SRAN9.0, the UBBPd is introduced to process GSM baseband signals and
support UL 4-way diversity.
l The DRFU RRU3004, and 2T RF modules support the transmit diversity.
l When 4-way receive diversity is used, two DRFUs must be configured.
l Each DRFU or RRU3004 supports only one TRX when PBT or transmit diversity is used. Each
cell served by the DRFU or RRU3004 supports a maximum of two TRXs. When transmit
diversity is used, the maximum number of carriers supported by each GSM RF module with
two transmit channels decreases by half.
l The DRFU and RRU3004 do not support PBT when transmit diversity is used.
l When UL 4-way diversity is used, the DRFU does not support TMA. When 4-way diversity
is used, each cell supports a maximum of two TRXs.
NOTE
DRFUs and RRU3004 modules do not support eGBTS.

4.4.2 AAU3902 Configurations


This section describes configuration principles, typical configurations, and typical conversions
of an AAU3902.

AAU3902 Configuration Principles


The AAU3902 configuration principles are as follows:

Issue 13 (2015-08-30)

Huawei Proprietary and Confidential


Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

116

SingleRAN
3900 Series Base Station Configuration Principles

4 Product Configuration

Each sector needs to be configured with an AAU3902. The number of RF modules is


determined by the number of sectors, number of carriers, and output power.

The AAU3902 is an antenna with horizontal beamwidth of 65, and therefore does not
apply to an omni-directional site.

In sector splitting scenarios, the 4RXD mode (1T4R/2T4R/4T4R) is not supported.


Therefore, the configuration of six sectors is not supported.

For RU44-2.1G
If a sector is not split, an AAU3902 supports one sector with a horizontal beamwidth
of 65 degrees, and an RU44-2.1G supports a maximum of eight 1T2R carriers or four
2T2R/2T4R carriers (if 4R is required).
If a sector is split vertically, an AAU3902 supports two sectors, each with a horizontal
beamwidth of 65 degrees, and an RU44-2.1G supports a maximum of four 1T2R carriers
or four 2T2R carriers. It does not support 1T4R and 2T4R carriers.
The WBBPf1-4 is recommended. In 4RX mode, the WBBPb and WBBPd only support
small specifications, and they do not support CPRI MUX. Therefore, the WBBPf is
recommended in 4RX mode.

For RU44-1.8 G
The LTE mode supports the AAS vertical sector splitting and vertical four receive
features.
The GSM mode does not support the AAS vertical sector splitting and vertical four
receive features.
It is recommended that the UBBP be used to support multiple modes because the 1800
MHz RU44 does not have a baseband processing unit.
The AAU3902 can be used in eGBTS sites rather than GBTS sites. Therefore, the UMPT
must be configured.

An AAU3902 with one active unit can be transited to support two active units. For example,
an 1800 MHz RU44 can be added to an AAU3902 with the 2100 A+(790 to 960) P
+(1710 to 2690) P configuration to support the 2100 A+1800 A+(790 to 960) P+(1710
to 2690) P configuration,
or a 2600 MHz RU44 can be added to convert the AAU3902 so that the AAU3902
supports the 2100 A+2600 A+(790 to 960) P+(1710 to 2690) P configuration.

The typical configuration of an SRAN9.0 AAU3902 is 1800 A+(790 to 960) P+(1710 to 2690)
P. Its package contains an RU44 of 1800 MHz. It can connect to a high-frequency RRU/RFU
and a low-frequency RRU/RFU, as shown in the following figure.

Typical AAU3902 Conversion


An AAU3902 with one active unit can be converted to support two active units. For example,
an 1800 MHz RU44 can be added to an AAU3902 with the 2100 A+(790 to 960) P+(1710 to
2690) P configuration to convert the AAU3902 so that the AAU3902 supports the 2100 A+1800
A+(790 to 960) P+(1710 to 2690) P configuration, or a 2600 MHz RU44can be added to convert
the AAU3902 so that the AAU3902 supports the 2100 A+2600 A+(790 to 960) P+(1710 to
2690) P configuration. The following figure shows the conversion.

4.4.3 AAU3920 Configurations


This section describes configuration principles and typical configurations of the AAU3920.

Principles for Configuring an AAU3920


The AAU3920 configuration principles are as follows:
l

The baseband processing boards can be configured for UMTS are WBBPb1 to WBBPb4,
WBBPd1 to WBBPd3, and WBBPf1 to WBBPf4. In 4RX mode, the WBBPb and WBBPd
only support small specifications, and they do not support CPRI MUX. Therefore, the
WBBPf is recommended in 4RX mode.

A UBBPd can be configured as a baseband processing board in LTE mode to support UL


mode.

The AAU3920 supports a -48 V DC power supply socket and does not support power
cascading.

The passive antennas of the AAU3920 can be used on devices provided by Huawei or
customers.

The AAU3920's CPRI configuration principles are as follows:


l

The active RU configured on the AAU3920 provides two CPRI ports to connect to BBUs.
Each CPRI port supports a rate of 9.8 Gbit/s. For LO/UL base stations in wideband 2x2T4R
mode, the 2:1 Compression and CPRI MUX features need to be supported.

Multiple AAU3920s cannot be cascaded because of bandwidth limitation. In small


bandwidth configuration scenarios, three sectors supported by one base station can be
cascaded. In this case, a maximum of three cascading levels are supported. During the
cascading, you need to consider the number of cells supported by CPRI bandwidth and
CPRI port adaptive capabilities.

SingleRAN
3900 Series Base Station Configuration Principles

4 Product Configuration

It is not recommended that active and passive modules be cascaded by connecting CPRI
ports.

The AAU3920 is configured with 9.8 Gbit/s optical modules by default.

The AAU3920 electrical tilt configuration principles are as follows:


l

Different modes in same frequency band must use the same downtilt.

The electrical tilt is adjusted independently on 2T working at 1.8 GHz and 2.1 GHz.

The downtilt of the 2.6 GHz 2T cannot be independently adjusted in RET mode. 2.6 GHz
2T must use the same downtilt with 1.8 GHz 2T. For 2.6 GHz 4T, one 2.6 GHz 2T must
use the same downtilt with 1.8 GHz 2T, and other 2.6 GHz 2T must use the same downtilt
with 2.1 GHz 2T.

Determine the principles for sharing the same downtilt and independent electrical tilt
according to the network planning and optimization requirements.

4.4.5 AAU3940 Configurations


This section describes configuration principles and typical configurations of the AAU3940.

Principles for configuring an AAU3940


The AAU3940 configuration principles are as follows:

SingleRAN
3900 Series Base Station Configuration Principles

4 Product Configuration

Each sector needs to be configured with an AAU3940. The number of RF modules is


determined by the number of sectors, number of carriers, and output power.

The AAU3940 is an antenna with horizontal beamwidth of 70, and therefore does not
apply to an omni-directional site.

The AAU3940 only applies to sectorized cells. Each sector requires at most one AAU3940.
The AAU3940 is applicable to a cell that is partitioned into a maximum of three sectors.

The AAU3940 does not support mechanical tilt but only supports electrical tilt. The
horizontal angle of the AAU3940 is adjusted using mounting kits.

The AAU3940 only supports one AC input, which is applied in AC power supply scenarios.
The DC power supply is not supported. The AAU3940 also supports 10 kA differential
mode and 20 kA common mode with surge protection capabilities.

The AAU3940 can be used together with the BBU3900, BBU3910, or BBU3910A.

Configuration principle of CPRI ports


l

The AAU3940 provides two CPRI ports, which support a rate of 1.25 Gbit/s, 2.5 Gbit/s,
4.9 Gbit/s, or 9.8 Gbit/s.

The AAU3940 supports dual-band and UL dual-mode. The dual-star, star, and chain
topologies are used for CPRI connection.

In remote networking scenarios, the star topology for CPRI connection is recommended
for a base station located on a rooftop. A cascading way is recommended for a base station
located along the streets to reduce fiber optic cables.

Optical modules supporting a CPRI data of 9.8 Gbit/s are recommended.

Typical configurations of an AAU3940

4.5 Cabinet Upgrade


The cabinet upgrade solution aims to replace components in a cabinet whose version is earlier
than Ver.D with components designed for a Ver.D cabinet so that the restructured cabinet has
the same capabilities of power supply, power distribution, and heat dissipation as a Ver.D
cabinet. This solution facilitates the evolution to SingleRAN.

Co-MPT
license for
LTE

Configure this package based on the number of LTE


base stations supported by each UMPT(1). Each base
station can be configured with a maximum of one
such license.

NOTE

(1) Each UMPT supports one mode by default. One license needs to be added for each additional mode.
When multiple modes are configured for a UMPT, first quote a UMPT for the earliest mode and then add
licenses for later modes. The GSM, UMTS, and LTE modes are arranged from the earliest to the latest as
follows: GSM < UMTS < LTE

5.2 Capacity Expansion Principles


This section describes the capacity expansion principles for 3900 series base stations.
The following table lists the capacity expansion principles for 3900 series base stations.
Table 5-36 Capacity expansion principles
Expansion Item

Principle

Radio frequency
capacity

If the capacity to be expanded does not exceed the hardware capability, first expand the
multi-carrier license and power, and then add RFUs and RRUs.

Baseband capacity

If the capacity to be expanded does not exceed the hardware capability, first expand the
license, and then add baseband boards.

Transmission
capacity

If more than four E1s/T1s or more than one FE electrical or optical port is required, add
UTRP boards to provide more transmission ports.

NOTE

For the typical configurations after capacity expansion, see 5.1 Typical Configurations.
