R2 vs. R3 HW Structure


CBU – (Control Basic Unit) (replaces GPB,TUB,SCB,and ETB from 3202)

Implements the following:

• MP for control

• Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switch for all boards connected to thebackplane in the digital subrack.

• Timing Unit (TU) provides clock signals for synchronization

• Exchange Terminal (ET) board function, providing 4 E1, T1, or J1 ports to the transmission network

• Supplies Digital Sub Rack with power

RUIF(Radio Unit Interface) contains point to point connections via cables to the RUs. The RUIF is connected to the ATM backplane in the digital sub rack.

RAXB(Random Access and Receiver Board) Implements uplink base band processing. Two times over sampling is required to work with the RU interface. The RAX variants are available in different Channel Element capacities.

TXB (Transmitter Board) implements the downlink base band processing. The TX boards are available in different Channel Element capacities.

Digital Subrack Modules


FU – (Filter Unit) Contains low noise amplifier (LNA)- analogous to RBS 2x06 CDU.

PDU – (Power Distribution Unit) supplies RU, the FCU and the digitalsubrack (thru the CBU) with –48 V DC power. The supply to the CBU has 10 ms hold-up. The PDU contains circuit breakers.

RU – (Radio Unit) Handles the following:D/A and A/D conversion.RF modulation and demodulation.RF Carrier combining and splitting.- analogous to RBS 2x06 dTRU.

Radio and Filter Subrack Modules


PSUPower Supply Unit, converts incoming voltage to –48 VDC system voltage. The PSU is available for: 120-250 VAC, +24 VDC and –(48-60) VDC (3 wire).

ACCUAC Connection Unit, used to connect AC mains incoming voltage.

DCCUDC Connection Unit, used to connect incoming DC voltage, available for +24 VDC and –(48-60) VDC (3 wire).

DCFDC-filter, this is used to connect incoming voltage –48 VDC (2 wire).

Bus barConnection point for DC power, e.g. PSUs and PDU.

BFU (optional and external)Battery Fuse Unit, supervises and connects/disconnects the battery backup.

AUH (optional)

Power Subrack Modules


ETB- ( Exchange Terminal Board) implements transmission ports. Can beused when CBU ports are not sufficient, or when another type of transmission standard is required.

Three types available:

•ETMC1 - 8 (eight) E1, T1, or J1 ports

•ETM3 – 2 (two) E3 or T3 ports

•ETM4 – 2 STM-1 ports

GPB – (General Purpose Processor Board) Operates as MP, can contain and execute the main part of the RBS software. Controls devices on boards and in auxiliary units. It has flash disk storage, an Ethernet connection,and and RS232 interface. Can be duplicated for added reliability.

Minimum Hardware Requirements

512 Mb RAMCD-ROM Color monitor Sound card (alarms)


Other RequirementsThe Thin Client Operating System is Windows 2000 with SP2.Java Runtime Environment 1.3.1 has been installed.Internet Explorer 5.01, Service Pack 2, has been installed


Editing the Security Policy File(if you don’t have Java 1.3.1_14)

1. On the Windows taskbar, right-click the Start button to open the menu, then select Explore to start the Windows Explorer.

2. The Windows Explorer window opens. Go to the following path:

C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.2\lib\security


3. In the right pane of the window, locate the java.policyfile, press SHIFT and right-click on it to open the shortcut menu.


4 4. From the shortcut menu, select Open with... . The Open With window opens.

5. From the program list, choose WordPad as a program to open the file with.

6. Click Ok.

7. The java policy file opens with Wordpad.

8. Modify the following line in the java.policy file:

grant {permission java.security.AllPermission;

};9. Save the java.policy file.


Modified java.policy file


Connecting the Thin Client to the Node B.

A crossed Ethernet cable is required to communicate through the Ethernet port to the RBS cabinet.The connection interface for the Thin Client is located on the connection field of the RBS 3x06 cabinet.

Integration Procedures6.1.2Cabling between Thin Client RBS

6.1.2.1Connect serial cable to M2 on the connection field of UMTS RBS

3206/3106. If the serial port connector is not connected into the main CBU Test

port, plug it in.

6.1.2.2Ensure that the Ethernet cable to RBS is connected. M1 on the

Connection Field.


Thin Client IP Address ChangeOpen NW Configuration display of Control Panel, (example shown for windows 2000). From the lower left of the display, Start Settings Control Panel Network and Dial-up Connections Local Area Connection


Back-up Mode(optional if RBS is been pre-loaded already)

reload - -Analogous to “safe mode” in PC terms.Format /c2 and d drives on the CBU.Configure the IP addresses and default routes for the Node.Ping the node – make sure that you got contact with the RBS.


Uploading of Basic Package to Node(optional if RBS is been pre-loaded already)

WSFTP to RBS.Configure the WSFTP client with the correct IP addresses (node and laptop).


Make sure the drives /c2 and /d exist on the RBS.Takes approximately 10 minutes to upload all the basic package to the node’s drives.vols – command to check if all files have been uploaded on both drives.


Cabinet Configuration(optional if RBS is been pre-loaded already)

reload - command bringing the RBS to normal mode (without “- -”).rbs_basic_cv has been created.CV – configuration version. Analogous to restore point on Windows XP or autoexec.bat on DOS.Wait for IOR (approximately 5 minutes).pglist – command to check if all 46 moduleshave been uploaded.

Cabinet Equipment Configuration (cont’d)

Start-up EMAS:http://<RBS IP Address>/em/index_stubbed.html

<RBS>_CabinetEquipment.xml will be loaded by selecting Cabinet Equipment Wizard (next slide).Verify that correct cabinet has been configured on the scripts.Verify correct IP addresses and default routes loaded.Once loaded, restart RBS and all boards would be initialized (most boards, except FU, will go through locked mode – solid yellow lights).Approximately 5 minutes to locked mode.INITIAL_CV created in this process.


Cabinet Equipment Wizard


O&M Access ConfigurationStart EMAS again.<RBS>_OamAccess.xml will be loaded through the O&M Access Wizard.IPoverATM access will be configured so RDC could have control on the node.Transmission (e.g. T1) sync will be verified on the CBU.LOCKED mode – 10 mins. OAM_CV will be created by this process.


O&M Access Wizard


Site Equipment Configuration Wizard

<RBS>_external_hw.xml will loaded on Site Equipment Wizard.Cell configuration, power, antenna, TMAs, etc. data are configured.SITE_CV will created.


Site Complete MO Scripts<RBS>_SiteComplete.mo - MO (managed object) script to configure the ATM paths (AAL2, AAL5, etc.)Loaded through “Run Command File”Wizard on EMAS.make sure you receive “Configuration

Succeeded” printout.


Software Back-upManual backing-up of CV created after site complete.mo file.Final CV will be manually created.Last step of integration process.From Menu Bar, Select Maintenance Software Configuration Version Create


Software Back-up (cont’d)
