1 Introduction

1.1 Positioning The rapid development in the field of mobile communications technology brings about sharp

growth in the number of mobile users, which increasingly poses high requirements for the

network quality of operators. Besides the improvements in network coverage, operators need

more technologies to expand network capacity to cope with the rapidly increasing traffic

volume in the mobile broadband era.

At hotspots, insufficient network capacity and coverage holes have significantly affected user

experience. Operators require a low-cost, easy-to-deploy network solution to solve problems

in these areas. Customer-oriented and innovative, Sitronics Telecom Solutions unveils the

industry-leading PICO v1.0L.

PICO v1.0L is a dual-band LTE micro base station. PICO v1.0L is small, light-weight, and

comes with plug-and-play and self-configuration features, making it an excellent network

solution for operators. It requires no shelter or equipment room, facilitating site acquisition

and network deployment.

1.2 Benefits

Compact Structure and Fast Network Deployment

Small and lightweight, PICO v1.0L is easy to install and maintain, reducing the operator’s

capital expenditures (CAPEX).

PICO v1.0L can be installed on a wall or ceiling without requiring an equipment room,

making it an effective solution for mobile operators. PICO v1.0L facilitates site acquisition,

enables flexible network deployment, and reduces costs in site leasing.

Comprehensive and Low-Cost Transmission

PICO v1.0L supports all-IP transmission and can be deployed in the star topologies.

Expanded Capacity and Improved Coverage

PICO v1.0L accurately absorbs traffic and therefore expands network capacity at hotspots and

coverage holes. This helps operators enhance network quality and user experience.

management, performance management, security management, and site deployment. It

also processes the protocol stack on the user plane over the UE interface, including

scheduling and data processing in both the uplink and downlink, and it provides

signaling processing functions, such as Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP)

signaling processing over the UE interface and Stream Control Transmission Protocol

(SCTP) signaling processing over the S1 and X2 interfaces.

PICO v1.0L



RF modules: perform modulation, demodulation, and data processing for basebands 3 &

7, as well as RF signals.

Power adapter: serves as AC/DC power adapter to supply electric power for PICO v1.0L.

Product Description 4 Operation and Maintenance


4 Operation and Maintenance

The O&M system manages, monitors, and maintains PICO v1.0L software, hardware, and

configuration information.

4.1 O&M Functions

The O&M functions include configuration management, fault management, performance

management, security management, software management, device management.

Configuration Management

Configuration management includes data configuration, query, export, backup, and

restoration, as well as configuration synchronization with NMS.

Device data, transmission data, and service data are configured independently based on

managed objects (MOs).

Fault Management

Fault management involves fault detection, fault isolation and self-healing, alarm reporting,

and alarm correlation. The faults come from hardware, environment, software, transmission,

cells, and services of different types.

Fault isolation prevents faults from affecting the operation of the entire PICO v1.0L.

Self-healing such as lowering specifications and reestablishing cells minimizes the

impact of faults on services by reestablishing a cell with degraded specifications.

Performance Management

Performance management involves periodic performance measurement on PICO v1.0L and

the collection, storage, and reporting of the measurement results.

PICO v1.0L collects the performance measurement results every 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes, and

stores the results for a maximum of three days. Performance measurement covers the

performance of PICO v1.0L, cells (including neighboring cells), transmission, standard

interfaces, and device usage.

PICO v1.0L supports real-time monitoring of key performance indicators (KPIs) with an

interval of 1 minute, which helps detect and diagnose faults timely.

Product Description 4 Operation and Maintenance


Security Management

Security management is used for PICO v1.0L authentication and access control. It involves

user account management, rights management, login management, identity authentication,

and operation authentication.

Security management provides network- and user-specific security services. It provides the

following functions:

Encryption: encrypts important user information

Authentication: manages and authenticates user accounts

Access control: controls user operations

Software Management

Software management involves the following functions:

Software version management: Software versions can be queried, backed up, and

restored.

Software version upgrade: PICO v1.0L can be remotely upgraded. With the one-click

remote upgrade wizard provided by NMS, you can:

−

− Back up, download, and activate the software.

− Check the upgrade status and results.

PICO v1.0L supports automatic configuration updates during upgrades. To complete an

upgrade, simply follow the instructions on the upgrade wizard. It also allows you to

rapidly roll back the software version by running one command, reducing the impact of

upgrade failures.

Device Management

Device management involves data configuration, device status management, fault detection,

and troubleshooting. On the device panel, you can view device status and perform simple

operations such as device query and reset.
