The GUI-based CME has the following functions: Providing integrated solutions to RAN data configuration Improving data configuration efficiency Reducing daily maintenance cost HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 6 Components of the CME Components of the CME Logically, the CME consists of the following components: CME server: It is installed with the database software and processes core data logically. CME client: It is installed with the CME application and provides GUIs. Physically, the CME client and CME server can be located either on the same PC or on different PCs. CME Client Network Equipments LAN CME Server CME Client CME Server HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

All rights reserved Page 10 Features of the CME Automatic Data Refreshing on the Iub Interface When configuring Iub interface data, configure the transport network layer data to the RNC, and then start the data refreshing function to synchronize the data at the NodeB with the configured data at the RNC. Thus, the Iub interface data in the Radio Network System (RNS). Automatic data refreshing on the Iub interface simplifies data configuration, ensures data consistency for the Iub interface, and fulfills integrated WRAN data configuration. Distributed Client and Server The CME works in distributed mode, in which the client and server are separated and work as follows: A CME server can connect to several CME clients at the same time. A CME client can connect to different CME servers, but can only connect to one CME server at a time. The distributed mode ensures flexibility in applying the CME. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 11 Features of the CME Convenient Resource Management The resource indication on the CME client shows in real time the usage of transmission resources, such as the bandwidth and physical links. The device panel on the CME client shows the NodeB hardware data configuration in real time. Intelligent Data Operation The CME automatically operates the key data of neighboring cells, SAAL links, IP routes, and ATM addresses. And then the CME collects available resources, puts them into the resource pool, and displays them on the GUIs. The CME configures the data available in the resource pool in batches.

All rights reserved Page 13 Features of the CME User-Centered Design (UCD) The CME provides multiple information navigation modes, such as navigation by Network Element (NE) and by protocol stack. Some configuration, such as adding a NodeB or cell or removing a NodeB or cell, can be performed through the wizard. UCD simplifies data configuration. Project-Based Data Management All configuration data of the CME is stored on the database of the CME server. You can create multiple projects. Database space separated by projects enables you to configure different RAN data. Project-based data management facilitates data backup. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 14 Features of the CME Auxiliary Data Modification Tool The CME can synchronize data with the RNC BAM server. In addition, the CME provides the wizard for operations in RNC connected mode. The operations include the following: adding NodeBs in batches, adding cells in batches, modifying cell algorithm parameters in batches, modifying cell frequencies, modifying neighboring cell relationships These operations support MML-based data transfer to NEs in real time and are applicable to scenarios such as routine maintenance and network optimization. User-Friendly Online Help With the online help, you can query information of parameters on a configuration interface by the interface name. The parameter information includes the value range, description, unit, and default value. The introduction to the CME and description of project operations are also available from the online help for you to check, browse, import, or export data. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

All rights reserved Page 18 Concepts of the CME -Negotiated Data File Concept A negotiated data file contains a set of configuration data that is obtained as required during site preparation to simplify the initial configuration and expansion. The data set includes the following data: NodeB basic data at the RNC, cell data at the RNC, neighboring cell data, neighboring cell relationship data. The negotiated data template file is saved in .xls format. Role of the Negotiated Data File in the CME The negotiated data file can be a data source for CME initial configuration and expansion. Method of Obtaining the Negotiated Data File The negotiated data file is provided with the CME software. The file is available from \CMEV100R002\import, where stands for the CME installation directory Scenarios of the Negotiated Data File During RAN initial configuration and expansion on the CME, import data in the negotiated data file into the CME to generate CME configuration data. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 19 Concepts of the CME -NodeB Template Concept A NodeB template contains a set of recommended data predefined with common configuration types, demodulation modes, and Iub transmission modes to simplify NodeB data configuration. Role of the NodeB Template in the CME The NodeB template can be a data source for NodeB data configuration on the CME. Method of Obtaining the NodeB Template The NodeB template is provided with the CME software. The template is available from \CMEV100R002\template\NodeB. Scenarios of the NodeB Template During NodeB initial configuration on the CME, import a NodeB template according to the NodeB type. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 20 Concepts of the CME -NodeB Data Configuration File Concept A NodeB data configuration file contains a complete set of NodeB configuration data for proper operation of the NodeB. Role of the NodeB Data Configuration File in the CME The NodeB data configuration file can be directly loaded to the NodeB as an export file after NodeB data configuration. In addition, the NodeB data configuration file is an optional data source for NodeB configuration on the CME. Method of Obtaining the NodeB Data Configuration File You can export a NodeB data configuration file either after configuring the NodeB data or from the current network. The file then serves as the data source for NodeB data configuration. Scenarios of the NodeB Data Configuration File Export the NodeB data configuration file to the NodeB LMT after the RAN initial configuration is complete on the CME. Then load the file to the NodeB and validate the file. When reconfiguring the RAN on the CME, import the NodeB data configuration file to the CME server to synchronize new NodeB data with existing NodeB data. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 21 Concepts of the CME -RNC Data Configuration File Concept An RNC data configuration file contains a complete set of RNC configuration data for specific RNC operations. Role of the RNC Data Configuration File in the CME The RNC data configuration file can be loaded to the RNC as an export file after RNC data configuration. Method of Obtaining the RNC Data Configuration File Export the RNC data configuration file after data configuration on the CME. Scenarios of RNC Data Configuration Files The RNC initial configuration file applies to RAN initial configuration. The RNC incremental configuration file applies to RAN reconfiguration. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.
