sists of the agent processes that run on the NE and the inte-
grated network management software OMC. It fulfills the functions
of security management, configuration management, fault man-
agement, performance management, log management and other
auxiliary functions to meet the telecommunications demands.

1.8 Product Reliability


Hardware Hardware reliability lies in the following aspects.
Reliability
1. Board re-power on function
When the software of a board fails to reset, implement power-
off reset to the board power supply through the CSIM board.
The CSIM board controls over MPIM, MPXM, WBPM and TFM,
while it cannot control the other boards.
2. Board in-position detection function

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 11


ZXMBW B9100 Principle and Hardware Structure Training Manual

The CSIM board communicates with the other boards to judge


whether the boards run normally. To learn a more real running
status of the boards, the CSIM board can implement in-position
detection of each board through the backplane or the connec-
tion cable.
3. Board reverse insertion prevention function
If a board is inserted upside down, the board fails to contact
the backplane normally so as to protect the equipment from
damage.
4. Power over-voltage, over-current and inverse connection pro-
tection function

� -48 V distributed power supply with lightning proof design
� Remote failure location, a better mode for locating hard
fault and graceful failure
� Reliable grounding design
� Consideration of structure, hot design and overall wiring
� Simplified and error protection design
Software Software reliability lies in the following aspects.
Reliability
1. Software operation support
� Periodically collects statistics of the CPU occupancy and
heap of tasks.
� Monitors abnormal statuses such as system CPU overload,
task endless loop, suspension and dead lock.
� Detects various abnormal CPU events and conducts pro-
cessing accordingly.
� Provides reset logs and black box and makes records on
field information of board software failures to facilitate fail-
ure location.
� Database management

Chapter 2 Working Principle
After you have completed this chapter, you will know:
>> ZXMBW B9100 Work Principle

2.1 System Architecture


Architecture Figure 9 illustrates the ZXMBW B9100 system architecture.

FIGURE 9 SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Signal Flow � Forward Service


The ZXMBW B9100 receives the forward service from AGW
through R6 interface, and implements signal coding and
modulation. After that the coded and modulated signals are
transmitted to the RRU through fiber or local connection. The
RRU performs radio modulation, amplification and filtration on
the signals, and then sends the signals to the access terminal
through the antenna.
� Reverse Service
The antenna receives the reverse service that from access ter-
minals, and passes the service to the RRU. The RRU performs
radio demodulation on the service. The demodulated signals

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 17


ZXMBW B9100 Principle and Hardware Structure Training Manual

are transmitted to ZXMBW B9100 through fiber or local con-


nection. The ZXMBW B9100 decodes the signal, and sends the
signal to core network through the R6 interface.

2.2 Signal Flows


2.2.1 Service Signal Flow

In ZXMBW B9100, the control plane signal flow and the media
plane signal flow are combined into one signal flow.
Forward Signal Figure 10 shows the forward service signal flow.
Flow
FIGURE 10 FORWARD SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW

The service signals from the CN flows from the AGW into the CSIM
board through the R6 interface. After the signals pass the Ethernet
switch, they are distributed to MPXM, MPIM and WBPM boards to
implement MAC and PHY processing of baseband modulation. The
signals are then sent to RRU through the baseband-RF interface.

18 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION


Chapter 2 Working Principle

Reverse Signal Figure 11 shows the reverse signal flow.


Flow
FIGURE 11 RESERVE SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW

The RF signals from the MS flow into the WBPM board through the
baseband-RF interface. After the signals pass the Ethernet switch,
they are distributed to the MPXM, MPIM and WBPM boards for MAC
and PHY processing of baseband demodulation. Finally, the signals
are sent to the AGW through the R6 interface of the CSIM board.

2.2.2 Clock Signal Flow

The ZXMBW B9100 system clock is wholly distributed by the TFM


board.
The TFM board processes the received satellite signals and outputs
PP1S, 4CHIP and SerDes clock signals. Afterwards, it distributes
these clock signals to each board of the ZXMBW B9100, as shown
in Figure 12.

FIGURE 12 CLOCK SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION

2.3 Power Distribution


The external -48 V power supply goes through the DC power cable
to the PM panel through its panel inlet. The PM panel processes
and outputs 12 V and 3.3 V into the boards in the chassis.

2.4 Ventilation and Heat


Dissipation Principles
ZXMBW B9100 adopts forced air-cooling with front intake and rear
exhaust. It is equipped with 3 separated fan units.
The cool air blows into the cabinet through the air intake vent at
the bottom and goes upwards through the air exhaust vent at top.

Chapter 3 Networking and
Configuration

After you have completed this chapter, you will know:


>> Networking and Configuration

3.1 ZXMBW B9100 and AGW


Networking
One AGW ZXMBW B9100 supports the star networking mode with AGW, as
Connected to shown in Figure 14.
Multiple BSs
FIGURE 14 ZXMBW B9100-AGW STAR NETWORKING

Each ZXMBW B9100 is connected to the AGW through the trans-


mission medium. This networking mode facilitates network main-
tenance and engineering installation. The signals are transferred
for very few times, so the line reliability is high.
One BS Connected To improve the reliability and AGW disaster recovery capability,
to Multiple AGWs one BS can be connected to multiple AGWs. Both layer 2 and
layer 3 switches are supported between BS and AGWs.
1. In layer 2 mode:
One BS is connected to multiple AGWs through a layer 2 switch,
as shown in Figure 15.

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 23


ZXMBW B9100 Principle and Hardware Structure Training Manual

FIGURE 15 BS CONNECTED TO MULTIPLE AGWS VIA LAYER 2 SWITCH

In this mode, the external IP address of MPXM is in the same


subnet as the IP addresses of the AGW interfaces. Because all
media plane and signaling plane packets that are sent to an
AGW should be transferred by the AGW interface, the corre-
sponding route table must be configured in MPXM.
2. In layer 3 mode:
The external IP address of MPXM, the AGW interface IP ad-
dresses, the signaling IP addresses and the media plane IP ad-
dresses of AGWs can be in different subnets. In this mode, the
configuration of MPXM is simple. The media plane and signal-
ing plane packets that are sent to any AGW need to be routed
only to the external router that is connected to the MPXM.
Figure 16 shows the layer 3 mode.

4.5 GPS Antenna Feeder System


4.5.1 GPS Antenna Feeder System
Structure

GPS signals are the reference clock and reference frequency of


the ZXMBW B9100 system. The GPS antenna feeder system re-
ceives the positioning signals from the GPS satellites. The GPS
receiver demodulates and extracts the frequency and clock sig-
nals and sends them to the required units of the ZXMBW B9100.
In the case that the ZXMBW B9100 is installed indoors, the struc-
ture of the GPS antenna feeder system is as shown in Figure 53.

4.5.3 GPS Feeder

The GPS feeder connects the GPS antenna and the clock module
of ZXMBW B9100. It sends the signals that are received by the
GPS antenna to the clock module for processing, and sends the
DC power supply that is provided by the clock module to the GPS
antenna as the working voltage.
When the GPS feeder length is shorter than 100m, adopt the 1/4"
RF coaxial cable. When the GPS feeder length is longer than 100m,
adopt the 1/2" RF coaxial cable.
1/4" Feeder Figure 55 shows the appearance of the 1/4" feeder.
