WCDMA Power Amplifier (1 to 3 units)

The WDCMA Power Amplifier Unit (WMP) is a multicarrier amplifier with an


operating bandwidth of any 20 MHz section on the whole 60 MHz WCDMA
allocation. In WMP, the signals received from WTR are amplified linearly and
distributed to the WCDMA Antenna Filter Unit (WAF).
WCDMA Input Combiner (1 unit)

The WCDMA Input Combiner (WICA) unit accommodates an Ethernet hub for
the TLCI-bus.
WCDMA Antenna Filter unit (1 to 3 units)

The WCDMA Antenna Filter (WAF) combines and isolates TX/RX signals and
amplifies received signals. The unit contains a receiver multicoupler with four
outputs for main branch and four outputs for diversity branch. Also, the unit
has
an RF Monitoring port for TX signal monitoring.
TheWAFis capable of feeding operating power to twoNokia UltraSiteWCDMA
Masthead Amplifier (MHA) units.

6.4.2 WCDMA Baseband Units

This section describes the following WCDMA baseband units:


WCDMA Summing and Multiplexing (WSM)
WCDMA Signal Processing (WSP)
WCDMA Application Manager (WAM)
Construction and units

WCDMA Summing and Multiplexing unit (1 unit)

TheWCDMASumming and Multiplexing unit (WSM) sums the TX signals from


the Signal Processing units and routes it to the WTRs. RX data is routed through
the same path, but without summing.
The operating principle is the same for both WSMA and WSMB.
Rel1 (WSMA) and Rel2 (WSMB) WSMs

In Rel2 WCDMA BTS HWthe WSMA unit is replaced with the WSMB because
the WTRB doubles the carrier capacity offered by the WTRA unit. This means
that the data throughput of the WSMA has to be doubled for it to be capable of
handling WTRBs. The WSMB provides this capacity.
WCDMA Signal Processing unit (1 to 5 units)

The Signal Processing unit (WSP) performs RX and TX code channel processing,
channel coding, and channel decoding functions. Summing of the TX code
channels is performed for the code channels processed in the unit. The
operating
principle is same for WSPA and WSPC.
Rel1 (WSPA) and Rel2 (WSPC) WSPs

In Rel2 WCDMA BTS HWthe WSPA unit is replaced with the WSPC unit. The
WSPC unit offers double capacity of the WSPA unit. The WSPC unit offers 64
HWchannel capacity while WSPA unit offers 32HWchannel capacity. Rel1 and
Rel2 WSP units can be used in the same cabinet from release RAN04 onwards.
WCDMA Application Manager unit (1 to 2 units)

The WCDMA Application Manager unit (WAMA) takes care of the control
functions in NokiaWCDMABTSs, such as BTS initialization, configuration, and
O&M functions. The unit also performs transport channel processing, ATM
processing, telecom frame protocol handling and logical resource management.
One of theWAMunits in theWCDMABTS acts as the masterO&Munit and the

other one as the telecom master unit. The O&M master WAM takes care of the
BTS power up control and the control and maintenance functions during run
time.
The telecom masterWAMoperates as the main signalling counterpart to serve
the
RNC. All other WAMs perform lower levelO&Mand telecom functions. If there
is only one WAM unit in a BTS, it takes care of both master functions.

The Unit Fans are modules of the cabinet core and included with the cabinet
delivery. The BOI unit controls the fan rotation speed, according to temperature
information from other units. To maintain cooling, adjust the rotation speed of
the
fans. Smooth speed variations minimise the noise generated by the fan units.
The Outdoor cabinet has 11 unit fans, and the Outdoor Midi cabinet has 7 unit
fans.
Heater unit (0 to 1 unit)

The optional Heater unit is needed to cold start Nokia UltraSite EDGE BTS
Outdoor when operating in temperatures between -10 and -33C (+14 to
