WiBAS-2X Network Architecture

Introduction A WiBAS-2X network is based on a point-to-multipoint architecture and is
intended for wireless Line-Of-Sight (LOS) coverage in areas with cell
sectorization.

A cell is a geographical area covered by a WiBAS-2X system incorporating a
Base Station (BS), at the center of the cell, and several Terminal Stations
(TS) scattered within the cell, as depicted below:

A cell is physically divided into usually four (or six) sectors and served by the
Base station Radio System (BRS), the outdoor part of the BS. The BRS controls
the radio links, between the BS and the scattered TS and communicates with
the outdoor part of each TS, the Terminal station Radio Systems (TRS).

The indoor part of the BS, IBAS (Intracom Broadband Access System),
aggregates traffic from all TS and provides the network interfaces to the
backbone. The MSAD (Multi-Service Access Device), the indoor part of the TS,
provides the user interfaces.

All WiBAS-2X network elements, for as many systems, may be configured,
controlled and monitored remotely through an advanced Network Management
System, the wBBMS.

IBAS

Description IBAS constitutes the INTRACOM TELECOM answer to the Multi-Service
Access Node (MSAN) requirements of Legacy and Next Generation
Networks (NGN).

As part of the WiBAS Base Station, IBAS is used to aggregate IP, TDM and
ATM traffic from all terminal stations and connect to the backbone network.
Further, customers residing in the same building as the BS can also be
served by IBAS, via its E1 and Ethernet interfaces.

IBAS employs wireline as well as wireless technologies to provide wireless
broadband access and wireless backhauling. As a true Multi-Service Access
Node (MSAN), IBAS can provide both narrowband (POTS, ISDN) and
broadband xDSL (e.g. ADSL /2/2+, G.shdsl) access services.

IBAS includes the baseband modems for each radio sector, the control logic
for the whole system, the uplink network interfaces and the wireline access
interfaces.

IBAS features a high-bandwidth backplane, high aggregation capacity, high-
speed network interfaces and advanced protection mechanisms.

IBAS comprises a configurable ETSI-standard subrack (see below) that
features vertical slots to fit interchangeable slide-in units.

Design
characteristics
A cell served by an IBAS is divided into radio sectors, each addressing a
number of TS. All TS in a given radio sector are served by the same Sector
Processing Unit (SPU), a slide-in unit of the subrack.

Traffic from all working SPU is directed to one or more of the central
processing unit(s), which aggregate and switch traffic to the backbone
network through their on-board physical interfaces.

A wide range of Line Termination Units (LTU) extend the broad and reach of
services provided by the IBAS subrack, through a number of different
wireline technologies.

FANT, the subracks detachable Fan Unit, accommodates eight fans to
protect the housed electronics against overheat.

A door at the bottom of the subrack hides a patch panel accommodating the
connection receptacles for the fitted LTUs (if any).

MSAD

Description The MSAD is an advanced network device that can perfectly meet all access
requirements at a service location for a large number of different
applications.

The MSADs role is to control the TRS, implement the baseband modem,
and provide the user network interfaces. With the support of highly
developed interworking mechanisms and sophisticated QoS features, it
stands for a comprehensive gateway, addressing the needs of demanding
high-end customers.

The MSAD is a 1U subrack suitable for desktop, wall or rack mounting.
The case is environmentally and temperature hardened and is made of
pressure die cast aluminum.

No movable mechanical parts (i.e. fans) are employed for cooling, as they
turn out to be unreliable and prone to failures. Instead, passive cooling is
employed, a technique that also provides outstanding mechanical reliability.

All connection receptacles are accessible from the front panel.

unified supervision of all WiBAS products, also supporting the integration of
standard-based third party wireless broadband elements.

Moreover, wBBMS can seamlessly be integrated into BBMS system assuring
integrated management of all Intracoms broadband products.

Finally, CORBA and SNMP northbound interfaces are available for
integration of wBBMS to overlying OSS and/or BBS systems.

WiBAS-2X

32
wBBMS System Architecture

NMC
deployment
The wBBMS system has a modular architecture and is composed of specific
software applications / modules and commercial software packages.

The software modules can be hosted in one single computer or distributed
over a computer network depending on the performance requirements of the
management system of a particular network.
The system consists of various hardware components such as the
application server, the clients workstations, the DCN equipment, printers etc.
In addition, one or more client workstation and printers may exist on this
LAN/WAN composing the Network Management Center (NMC) of a
managed network. These connections are implemented using 10 / 100BaseT
Ethernet cabling.
Communication between the wBBMS and the elements of the managed
network are performed via the core DCN network.
The application server is connected into the DCN using TCP/IP over
Ethernet 10 / 100BaseT cabling. Client workstations can be connected to the
Network Management Server as well.
An example of wBBMS system deployment is shown below:

wBBMS System Architecture, Continued

Operating
system (OS)
At the server side (application server) wBBMS currently utilizes UNIX-
Solaris2.8 OS.

The graphical user interface is a JAVA-based application and runs on
standard Intel-based PCs that use Windows
or Linux operating system.

Database wBBMS is flexible to utilize either Oracle (standard edition) or PostgreSQL
Relational Database Management Systems.

Expandability The exact configuration of the application server depends on the network
configuration and the required number of concurrent client sessions.

Due to software modularity, there is practically no limitation on the number of
network elements or the number of users the system supports.

System expansion is feasible by upgrading the hardware configuration, in
terms of CPU power and RAM memory and by apportioning the management
requirements into regional management centers (regional level
management), through additional regional servers and clients.

Configuration Management

Introduction The Configuration Management applies monitoring, management and control
changes to the network elements and to the network composed of these
elements.
The main tasks of the Configuration Management include:
Network monitoring
Initial configuration and re-configuration of the network elements
Adaptation to planned operational modifications / user requirements

Network
presentation
Network monitoring is performed through the Tree View Window (TVW, see
left picture below) where the network elements and their components are
displayed in a tree structure denoting the containment relationships.

Moreover, a Map View Window (MVW, see right pictures below) is available
in which the elements are displayed on a map at their relative positions.
By zooming in the elements, the operator can view the included components.
Network elements are commissioned under wBBMS administrative domains
through an SNMP-based auto-discovery process. When one element is
discovered, all the contained objects (cards, interfaces, cross connections)
are added to the tree view and, from now on, the network element is under
wBBMS supervision.

Tree view
Map view

Configuration Management, Continued

Model
synchronization
wBBMS network representation is real-time in the sense that all the element
attributes, held in the server, reflect the latest image of the connected
elements. The model synchronization is performed through:
Trap reception and handling of trap information, if it is sufficient
Trap directed polling, in case that traps information is not sufficient
Configurable polling of interfaces status information
Continuous polling of elements management connectivity
On-demand synchronization

Configuration
management
features
Through the wBBMS Configuration module, the operator can create
administrative domains, commission / decommission network elements and
perform various actions on them. The main features of the Configuration
Management include:
System provisioning:
- End-to-end (i.e. from a network interface to a user interface)
- Subscriber-oriented (through the configuration data window of the
respective subscriber)
- Flexible (through an import / export file mechanism, using an .xls file)
Commissioning / decommissioning and control of the TS
Creation and manipulation of traffic and uplink profiles of SPU card
Configuration of radio and modem parameters
Configuration of parameters concerning BS devices or card modules
Uploading of network elements configuration files for backup purposes
on a scheduled basis. On-demand configuration restoration can be
performed either at once or through scheduling
Configuration of IP VLAN interfaces
Configuration of the ATM PVCs through the manipulation of traffic
descriptors, cross connection entries and SNCs
Software upgrade and configuration download through files for selected
network elements can be performed centrally from wBBMS. It can be
performed at once or it can be scheduled to take place at low utilization
hours
Configuration of xDSL interfaces via the use of configuration and alarm
profiles. Though the profile mechanism, configuration of a large number
of subscriber lines (xDSL) is extremely simplified since it only requires
changing values in the corresponding profile and wBBMS handles the
profile downloading to every assigned line
Massive configuration of any number of selected interfaces and devices
SPU protection mechanism
Configuration of the radio transceivers (at both BS and TS)
All the aforementioned features are available to the wBBMS operator,
depending on his / her privileges in the security management system.

Fault Management

Introduction Fault Management provides capabilities related to the notification of the
operator in the presence of faults and identification of the root cause of the
fault. It provides a facility for notifying the operator in the presence of
network-wide faults (Alarm Surveillance), as well as the identification of the
root cause of the fault (Fault Localization).

Fault view

Fault
Management
main functional
modules
Historical Alarm List: The user asks for the historical alarms via an
appropriate menu selection (the main window menu from the Tree View
and the Element View Windows). An alarm list using filters over the
various managed entities of the application (domains, elements and
ports) is available to the user. The user prints the results or exports them
to file
Active Alarm List: The user is able to see the active alarms of an object
by clicking the object with the mouse and making an appropriate
selection or by selecting the relative menu item from the window menu,
having the certain object already selected. In addition, from the window
menu, the user can request the active alarms for all the objects or for a
specific object or group of objects
Real-Time Monitor Window: The time that the primary fault view is
generated must not load all the existing alarms of the network. On the
contrary, this window can act as a real time window alarm, which displays
all the notifications (alarms and events) at the time of the occurrence
from the time that this window is running

Fault Management, Continued

Lifetime and
handling of
alarms
When an alarm is generated, related data is stored automatically in an alarm
log (database system). Alarms are available in logs for a configurable time
interval.
Alarms, which are older than the specified interval are removed from logs
and will be stored in archives using archiving criteria set by operators. The
archives can be deleted or exported in backups.
When the operator double clicks on one alarm, the focus is placed on the
related object that issued the alarm in the tree view. Due to this fault-tree
view operational integration, the operator can identify easily the faulty
component and perform all the available actions in order to detect the root
cause of the problem and solve it.
The user has the ability to monitor all the existing alarms according to the
privileges given by the security management.
Real time monitoring of the latest alarms will also be provided in order to act
immediately in a fault situation.

Performance Management

Introduction The Performance Management ensures that the WiBAS network is operating
efficiently and that the network resources are allocated properly and
effectively.

Performance
management
features
After the resetting of an element, the measurement process begins.
As soon as the 15-min interval is completed, the current performance
counter, after being copied to the intervals buffer in the element, resets and
begins counting for the new 15-min interval.
Up to four 15 min measurements are buffered in the element, and can be
uploaded on operators demand.

In wBBMS, the operator can request and view the performance
measurements currently accumulated in the element.
On-demand refresh can be employed in order to upload measurements from
the element and update the current performance displayed.

In addition, the operator can define a performance job for scheduled
measurements uploading. After selecting any number of interfaces from
several elements, the operator can schedule the performance uploading for
the selected interfaces by identifying the measurement time period.
On job execution, the measurements stored in the element intervals table are
uploaded in wBBMS and stored in the database for operators data analysis.

Through the wBBMS database view module, stored measurements can be
filtered according to complex criteria and presented to the operator either in
table format or in graphical format. Displayed data can be printed or exported
to file.

The reporting capabilities of wBBMS include:
Equipment and traffic utilization reports
Subscriber related statistics reports
Performance reports

Security Management

Introduction The Security Management applies access control and protects both the
network and the network management systems against:

Intentional or accidental abuse
Unauthorized access
Loss of communication

To succeed in the aforementioned tasks, the Security Management offers
adequate functionality for the manipulation of:

User Profiles
Access rights
User Auditing

Security management
WiBAS-2X

41
Security Management, Continued

User profiles User profile management defines the application components and the
respective operations to which the user has access (e.g. severity mapping
GUI, Map view, alarm table, etc.) and the sub-tree, which the user can
manage. The user is not allowed to manage domains and elements other
than his assigned ones neither can he / she handle alarms emitted by
elements under other domains.

In a sense, the geographical domain serves as an administrative domain as
well. The operator makes use of the Profile Management component to
define and manipulate user profiles.

Profile management

Access rights Access Rights define the operations that the user is allowed to perform on
the management tree objects. If the user cannot perform some of the
operations from the set of operations supported by the object, then these
operations (or attributes) will not be shown to the user at all.
Access rights are defined and assigned to Security Groups. Then, users are
assigned to those Groups.
Using the Security Manipulation component, the operator defines and
manipulates access rights for groups and assigned users.

User auditing Through a configurable user auditing mechanism, all the operators
configuration actions are logged. The wBBMS administrator can define
configuration event logs based on several logging criteria.
As soon as an action, conforming to the predefined criteria, is triggered, then
the name of the user that performed the action, the time of the action, the
supplied arguments and the result are written in the corresponding
configuration log. The contents of the configuration logs are displayed to the
administrator through the wBBMS event log module.
Configuration logs can also be archived on demand.

CORBA Northbound Interface

Introduction The wBBMS has been developed using state of the art software tools like
CORBA, Relational Database and Java. These technologies together with
the software architecture ensure the openness of the system and its
capability to be fully incorporated into an integrated environment.

CORBA
features
CORBA northbound interface is provided for integration with external OSS
systems or other third party network management systems.

The interface provides topology and configuration information, real time
alarm propagation for fault integration and performance measurements
exporting.

All the information about the network elements is organized into the wBBMS
information base. This is a containment tree used to represent the network
being managed and is composed of a tree-organized collection of objects.

Through the wBBMS northbound interface, any external system can easily
traverse the information base and reach any wBBMS object, in order to
acquire the required information.

Additionally, SNMP based northbound interface is available, for integration
with external fault management systems.

Also alarms and performance measurements can be directly derived from the
system database through SQL or can be exported to files.

Furthermore, wBBMS can integrate any third party network elements, of
relevant technology, that support standard interfaces (CORBA, SNMP etc.),
delivering a common management platform for the whole underlying access
network.

Command line interface (CLI) is also available for manipulation of wBBMS
functionality.

Radio & Modem Performance

Introduction attain the highest net spectrum efficiency possible, WiBAS-2X utilizes
minimum overhead for transporting all types of traffic.

WiBAS-2X also employs adaptive PHY modes to guarantee optimal
robustness vs. performance balance, together with maximum capacity.

The PHY mode that will be used depends on the environmental conditions,
the interference and the RF channel, which is different for each subscriber /
frame.

Moving from the most robust PHY mode (4QAM 2/3 + RS) toward less robust
PHY modes (e.g. 16QAM), the system switches from the highest robustness
(required at poorest RF conditions) to higher efficiency (required at good RF
conditions), which results in increased bandwidth.

Radio Frequency Planning

Introduction Radio Frequency (RF) planning is a vital procedure during dimensioning and
implementation of a wireless system.

Designing and planning a wireless network is an elaborate process requiring
consideration of many different factors to effectively provide a robust, high
performance system.

RF design
considerations
Radio characteristics (transmitted power & antenna type / gain /
sensitivity) that define the systems range
Terrain morphology & structural environment of the area involved
Availability of frequency channels (defined by restrictions on frequency
assignment that affect system performance)
Climatic conditions in the specific geographical area (affecting the radio
propagation within the network)
Site survey information regarding available sites for Base Station
allocation, existing infrastructure, subscriber density, co-existing networks
and evaluation of the environment
Number of Base Stations (and their cell ranges) defined by the
geographical area in which the desired services and applications will be
delivered
Dimensioning and final system performance objectives
