2.4
Physical structure
The ZXWN EIR cabinet is an international standard 19-inch cabinet, in the dimensions of 2000mm 600mm 800mm (H W D). With the hook and anchor, its dimensions are 2100 600mm 800mm (H W D). The cabinet is light gray. Both sides of the front and back doors are aluminum, and the doors are installed with hinges and have top and bottom lintels. Each cabinet consists of the power distribution plug-in boxes, fan plug-in boxes, 8U standard plug-in boxes, cable plug-in boxes from top down. Each rack has 4 standard 8U plug-in boxes, as figure 4 shows. .
Figure 4 ZXWN EIR cabinet
The system power supply is fully distributed. That is, the power modules on the functional boards convert and isolate -48V power supply into/from the power supply needed by this board (such as +5VDC/+3.3VDC/+2.5VDC /1.8 VDC).The -48V power supply of the rack is input from the power distributing module (PDM) on the top of the rack, where there is an EMC filter, a circuit breaker for the general power supply and circuit breakers for plug-in boxes. The PDM provides -48 power supply for the four 8U plug-in boxes and two fan plug-in boxes through independent -48V busbars. The system has a -48V ground line, a working ground line and a protection ground line, which are connected to the plug-in boxes though busbars. The -48V ground line and the working ground line are set separately to reduce their mutual interference. For a single-rack system, the 3 ground lines join outside the rack and then ground together. For a multi-rack system, the 3 ground lines of each rack are connected separately, join at the remote end and then ground together
The signals between the plug-in boxes are usually connected through electrical port with isolation function, to avoid any influence to the ground-toground signal.

3.2.1
Hardware reliability design

EMC design
The EMC design of the ZXWN EIR system includes filtering, grounding, overlapping and cabinet electromagnetic screening. The EMI power filter and lightening arrestor are used for the power cables of the overall system. Filters are recommended at the input/output terminals of power modules of boards.
Boards and parts must satisfy Grade B requirements of ESD air discharge 8KV and touch discharge 6KV. To satisfy the requirements, the following measures should be taken in addition to overlapping and screening: 1 Grounding points should be plenty and well distributed. They are well distributed on the in-board sockets. 2 Components (except indicators and switches) should be kept at a proper distance from the panel (>10mm), away from panel edge. 3 Holes for indicators and switches should be of proper size and there should be no excessive gap. 4 There is no wire alongside the panel edge. Any wire (except the indicator wire) should be at least 5~10mm away from the panel edge. 5 The clock cable runs inside, not on the top or the bottom and should be as short as possible. 6 The devices to be used should be of high ESD protection level. Normally the ESD of a device should be at least 2000V. 7 The grounding wire layer should be larger than the boundary of the wires and components. At the panel side, the grounding wires should be installed with at least 5mm spacing. 8 Wires on the backplane should undergo crosstalk emulation. Signal lines of high working frequency should be suppressed and shielded as necessary. 9 Boards and parts should bear anti-static labels.
3.2.2
Simplification design
For the purpose of reliability, the system is designed in the following principles: Simplifying the system structure and board circuits, reducing the quantity of devices on the board, specifying uniform board signal definitions and implementing uniform backplane design so that relevant function boards can be reused and mixed. Reuse function and compatibility are fully recognized. For example, multiple function boards are integrated into one board and circuits of the same functions are integrated into one standard circuit. Use more general-purpose devices/parts. General purpose here

means the compatibility inside this system and with other products. Units and modules of the systems are designed according to relevant industry standards.
3.2.3
Redundancy design
Redundancy design of the system is done for signalling and controlling. Almost all boards are work in active/standby mode, as SMP,, CLKG, UIM, or work in load sharing mode, as SPB, SIPI. The signaling control boards and service processing boards send "Heartbeat" signals to each other through the Ethernet to detect the status of the other. The changeover follows the active/standby changeover mechanism of the system. The active and standby boards can not be online/offline at the same time and their data are synchronized through the internal Ethernet.
3.2.4
Harsh environment resistance design

The ZXWN EIR is an indoor product, which should be installed in the central equipment room of good conditions. Air-conditioning is required. Therefore, the product is not required to be moisture proof, smoke proof, mould proof, burglar proof and water proof. It is not necessary to do 3Proof processing to the boards. To prevent any damage in shipping and storage, cabinets should be well protected. The cabinet surface should be dust proof and corrosion proof. Boards are shipped in the cabinet. Therefore cabinets should be packed in vacuum pads and shockproof foams. Since the cabinets are heavy, they should be shipped in crates and the crates must be free of moisture.

Services and functions of ZXWN EIR
5.1
General
Equipment Identity Register EIR is the network entity which manages the IMEI of all mobile stations in PLMN and checks if they are legal. This network entity includes one or more databases storing the IMEI. The mobile stations are divided into white name list, grey name list and black name list. The IMEI of the mobile stations are in their certain name list. Technically it is much easier to wire tapping or cheating for wireless transmission than cable transmission. ZXWN-EIR assures the system security from the following points: By check the IMEI to prevent the mobile handset being peculated. 1 2 A handset in the white name list is legal in the network . A handset in the black name list is forbidden in the network. The main possible reason is that it is stolen or it is illegal. 3 A handset in the grey name list is determined by the operator. The possible reason is that it is injured or not be permitted to use, it is not forbidden but it will be traced by network.
5.2
IMEI storage
IMEI (International Mobile station Equipment Identity) information is stored in ZXWN EIR database, including the black/white/grey list category and the reason. IMEI data shall have the option to be stored in the lists as individual IMEIs or as a range of IMEIs, which have a common TAC and FAC.
17
ZXWN EIR supports both formats of IMEI and IMEISV. The IMEI is composed of the following elements (each element shall consist of decimal digits only): 1 2 Type Allocation Code (TAC). Its length is 8 digits; Serial Number (SNR) is an individual serial number uniquely identifying each equipment within the TAC. Its length is 6 digits; 3 Pare digit: this digit shall be zero, when transmitted by the MS.
The IMEISV (International Mobile station Equipment Identity and Software Version Number) is composed of the following elements (each element shall consist of decimal digits only): 1 2 Type Allocation Code (TAC). Its length is 8 digits; Serial Number (SNR) is an individual serial number uniquely identifying each equipment within each TAC. Its length is 6 digits; 3 Software Version Number (SVN) identifies the software version number of the mobile equipment. Its length is 2 digits.
5.3
Check IMEI service

The interface between MSC and EIR is f interface. The interface between SGSN and EIR is Gf interface. MSC or SGSN inquire the legal status of mobile equipment by sending Check IMEI to EIR. The following is the process of this service. 1 2 MSC or SGSN send MAP_CHECK_IMEI_REQ to EIR EIR return the legal status of the mobile station.( black white grey)

5.4
IMEI Range Match

Because EIR is very difficult to collect all IMEI information, to solve this problem, ZXWN EIR support IMEI range match. IMEI ranges shall configure category of white, grey or black. That mean all IMEIs in the same range are have the same category. When ZXWN EIR receives check IMEI message, ZXWN EIR first query the database with individual IMEI, if the record inexistence, EIR return this IMEI list category, if not, it will match with IMEI ranges, and return the IMEI range list category.
5.5
White/Black/Grey List Set

ZXWN EIR can set a default list of white, black and grey. When the IMEI can not find the identity in the EIR database, and not in the IMEI ranges, EIR will return the default list. In ZXWN EIR, there are 3 levels of white/black/grew list match. The first level is single IMEI match in EIR database. EIR returns the list of specified IMEI that is contained in the database. The second level is IMEI range match. If IMEI can not be found in the database, then EIR search the IMEI range to return the list that the specified IMEI is in.
19
The third level is the default list set. If the IMEI is not contained in the database, and in the IMEI range, EIR return the default list that is set in EIR system.

The performance measurement has a wide scope, ranging from traffic and signaling performances, service quality measurement, network configuration verification, availability measurement, throughput measurement and switching function measurement.
7.4
Diagnosis and test system

The diagnosis test system, a part of fault management, provides routine test and instant test for the physical devices of the core network, to ensure normal and stable operation of the entire system. In daily maintenance, the diagnosis test system is used to test the physical devices and communication links through routine test. If the test result is likely to be abnormal, the engineering personnel should pay enough attention to it and take proper measures to avoid any fault. In case of any fault, the diagnosis test system helps the engineering personnel find the fault cause and locate the fault quickly with the instant test to remove the fault as soon as possible. This system can also be used by the engineering personnel to judge whether the equipment and even the entire system resumes normal operation. The ZXWN EIR system adopts a multi-module & fully distributed control structure. Each module consists of a series of basic units. The diagnosis test function is divided into intra-module test and inter-module test. The intramodule test is used to test the functions of the component units of the module, links between the units and MPs, speech channels between units and switching networks. And the inter-module test is used to test the communication and speech channels of the adjacent modules.

Right management system is used to manage operation right of operators. It can set different operation rights for different users, and allow different users have different operator levels and right. First, builds right groups in different levels, and add operators in corresponding right group, in this way, operators can get corresponding right according to his right group. The operators in same right group have same rights. In right management system, right group can be divided into build in group and user defined group. 1 Build-in right group
Means the groups created by ZXWN EIR maintenance system automatically during system installation, have following types: i System administrator: The highest management level, can use all functions, such as add/delete right group, add/delete operators, view and modify the name and description of operators, modify the password of operators, and not allow a operator from enter in background maintenance system; this group can not be deleted. ii iii iv v Console administrator Console operator Data maintenance administrator Data maintenance operator
ii~v different rights, the right configuration can be modified or deleted.
27
User defined right group
User defined right group is set by user (such as system administrator) who has operation right on right group. After finish install ZXWN EIR maintenance system, general operators has no rights for operation and maintenance, the operation right on background is given by system administrator. So, after the ZXWN EIR maintenance system installed successfully, should login as system administrator first (System) and run right management system to give operators proper rights by add user and set users level. In this way, users can get proper right to login ZXWN EIR maintenance system and implement corresponding operations.
