The interfaces between the BSC6900 UMTS and each NE in the UMTS network are as follows:

Uu: interface between the Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) and
the UE

Iub interface: interface between the BSC6900 UMTS and the NodeB

Iur interface: interface between the BSC6900 UMTS and other RNCs

Iu-CS interface: interface between the BSC6900 UMTS and the Mobile Switching
Center (MSC) or Media Gateway (MGW)

Iu-PS interface: interface between the BSC6900 UMTS and the Serving GPRS Support
Node (SGSN)

Iu-BC interface: interface between the BSC6900 UMTS and the CBC
The interfaces between the BSC6900 GSM and each NE in the GSM network are as follows:

Um: interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the MS

Abis: interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the BTS

A: interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the MSC or MGW

Gb: interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the SGSN

The A, Um, and Gb interfaces are standard interfaces and support interconnections
with equipment of other vendors.

The BSC6900 GU performs functions such as radio resource management, base
station management, power control, and handover control.
P-6
The system capacity of the BSC6900 GU cannot reach the maximum in the UMTS network
and GSM network at the same time.
The BSC6900 V900R012 is added with the following new boards: SPUb, XPUb, DPUe, DPUf,
SCUb, AOUc, FG2c, GOUc, POUc, and UOIc. Other boards are inherited from the BSC6000
V900R008 and BSC6810 V200R011, and they can be used directly after the BSC6000 or
BSC6810 is upgraded to the BSC6900 GU.
P-7
The BSC6900 is compatible with the hardware of the BSC6810 and BSC6000. Through
software loading, the BSC6810 and BSC6000 in the existing network can be upgraded to the
BSC6900.
P-8
High integration and low cost

The BSC6900 caters to the mobile network requirements for high capacity with few
sites, therefore requiring a smaller equipment room and less power consumption. In
addition, the BSC6900 meets the increasing requirements of the fast growth of
services and protects the investment of the operator.
Easy configuration and convenient maintenance

The BSC6900 has a small variety of boards, such as the interface processing board,
OM board, switching processing board, signaling processing board, service processing
board, and clock processing board. The simplification of board types reduces the
maintenance cost. The interface processing boards and service processing boards are
flexible in configuration and easy to maintain and expand because they are not bound.
All-IP platform meeting the varying needs for network evolution

Based on its all-IP platform, the BSC6900 betters the PS service performance. The
interfaces support IP transmission, which provides sufficient bandwidth and saves
transmission cost. Based on the unified all-IP platform in the UMTS and GSM
networks, the BSC6900 UMTS conforms to the growing trend of broadband in the
wireless network and meets the requirements for network convergence and evolution.
Smooth evolution for investment protection

The BSC6900 is compatible with the hardware configuration of the BSC6810.
Through software loading, the BSC6810 in the existing network can be upgraded to
the BSC6900 UMTS. The BSC6900 UMTS can be added with hardware and software
of BSC6900 GSM to evolve to BSC6900 GU. This saves the investment of the operator.
DPI: Deep Packet Inspection

P-9
DPI indicates that the first 20 bytes after the UDP/TCP header of a packet are
identified after traffic classification on the basis of the quintuple information. The first
20 bytes after the UDP/TCP header contains the key information about the application
layer. Therefore, DPI is a feature referred to the application layer.
PTT: Push to Talk

A means of instantaneous communication commonly employed in wireless cellular

phone services that uses a button to switch a device from voice transmission mode to
voice reception mode. The operation of phones used in this way is similar to "walkie
talkie" use.
P-10
In BM/TC combined mode, the BSC is not configured with the TCS. The boards that
implement the TC functions are inserted into the slots in the MPS or EPS. With the same
capacity, fewer cabinets and subracks are required in the BSC, therefore increasing the
hardware integration.
When the BSC is located in a remote equipment room, it is configured in BM/TC separated
mode. The BSC is configured with a separate TCS, which is located in a TransCoder Rack (TCR)
on the MSC side. Therefore, the transmission resources between the BSC and the MSC are
saved.
In A over IP mode, the BSC directly connects to the Huawei core network without using the
TC, therefore protecting the operator's investment and improving the voice quality due to the
reduction of encoding and decoding. The A over IP mode meets the needs for network
evolution.
P-11
The BSC6900 can be flexibly configured as a BSC6900 GSM only, BSC6900 UMTS only, or
BSC6900 GU as required in different networks. The BSC6900 GSM, in compliance with the
3GPP R7, operates as an independent NE to access the GSM network and performs the
functions of the GSM BSC. With the support of EDGE+, the BSC6900 GSM can be upgraded
to the BSC6900 GU through addition of UMTS boards and software upgrade.
P-12
P-13
The BSC6900 integrates the two separate OM systems of the traditional GSM network and
UMTS network into a uniform OM system, therefore improving the user experience and the
efficiency in maintaining the multi-RAT system.
The simple network architecture speeds up troubleshooting and reduces the power
consumption, and therefore lowers the OM costs.
The OM system of the BSC6900 uses the web-based LMT, which need not be installed with
any OM software. You can connect the LMT to the OMUa to perform OM functions and
obtain the online help of the LMT. All the operation results are displayed on the LMT through
the web browser.

P-14
With unified transport resource management, bandwidth can be shared by UMTS&GSM.

The BSC6900 enables the transmission bandwidth to be shared between the GSM network and
the UMTS network. In this way, the utilization of transmission bandwidth increases by 5% to
10%.
The BSC6900 supports the following flexible transmission modes shared between the GSM
network and the UMTS network:
Abis/Iub over IP
2G/3G co-transmission based on TDM timeslot switching
A/Iu-CS over IP
Gb/Iu-PS over IP
P-15
The Co-Radio Resource Management (CoRRM) algorithm performs unified management and
intelligent scheduling on the radio resources in the GSM network and UMTS network.
The traditional CoRRM algorithm exchanges the 2G/3G load information between the GSM
network and the UMTS network through signaling procedures across the core networks.

The enhanced CoRRM algorithm of Huawei enables rapid transmission of 2G/3G load
information (used as internal messages) within the BSC6900. The advantages are as
follows:

Reducing delay, adjusting the load in real time, and increasing the success rate of
inter-RAT handovers

Decreasing the signaling flow on the standard interface and saving interface resources
Enabling radio resource sharing between GSM and UMTS and therefore increasing the
network capacity

P-42
Each BSC6900 subrack must be configured with the SCUa boards. The dual-plane mesh
topology is used for connections between SCUa boards in different subracks.
P-43

The SCUa board provides maintenance management and GE switching for the subrack where it is
located. It is used to implement MAC switching and provide interconnections between all modules in
a BSC6900.
Port trunking enables multiple physical ports to be grouped into one logical port. This technology
helps enhance reliability of data transmission.
Port trunking works in trunk groups. Multiple physical links form a trunk group. If a physical link in the
trunk group becomes unavailable, the data carried on the faulty link is transmitted on other links in
the trunk group. Therefore, the link failure does not disrupt proper communication between both
ends of the trunk group.
The traffic on the trunk group can reach a maximum of the total traffic on all the physical links in the
trunk group. Port trunking helps enhance transmission reliability and increase transmission bandwidth.
Port trunking is supported by the GE port on the SCUa board.
Port trunking is supported by the switching subsystem of an RNC.
The bandwidth of a trunk group is allocated to each GE port so that load is balanced among GE ports.
If a GE port in a trunk group is faulty, the links on the GE port are switched over automatically.
If the SCU board or a service processing board is faulty, the links cannot be switched over.

The BSC6900 can use the Building Integrated Timing Supply System (BITS), Global Positioning
System (GPS), LINE, and 8 kHz clocks.
The internal clock processing process of an RNC is as follows:

The clock module in the GCUa/GCGa board receives clock signals.

Through the clock output port on the GCUa/GCGa board, the clock module sends the
8 kHz clock signals to the SCUa boards in the MPS and each EPS.

System clock signals of 19.44 MHz, 32.768 MHz, and 8 kHz are generated in the MPS
and each EPS and sent to other boards in each subrack.
The AEUa and PEUa boards obtain the 32.768 MHz clock signals.
The AOUa and POUc boards obtain the 19.44 MHz clock signals.
The UOIc board obtains the 8 kHz clock signals.
The FG2c and GOUc boards do not use the clock signals from the clock
module in the GCUa/GCGa board.

The Iub/Abis-interface board forwards clock signals to BTSs or NodeBs.
If the line clock is obtained from the CN through an interface board in an EPS, the clock
signals can be sent out through the 2 MHz clock output port on the interface board to the
GCUa/GCGa board by using a clock signal cable.
If the BSC6900 is configured with a Gb interface board, the Gb interface board can obtain
clock signals either through the backplane in the subrack where the Gb interface board is
located or from the CN. When the CS and PS data use different clock sources and clock
signals are obtained from the CN, the Gb interface cannot share a board with other interfaces.

OM of the BSC6900 is performed in the following scenarios: routine maintenance, emergency

P-87
The dual OM plane design is implemented by the hardware that works in active/standby
mode. When an active component is faulty but the standby component works properly, a
switchover is automatically performed between the active and standby components, to
ensure that the OM channel works properly.
The active/standby OMUa boards use the same external virtual IP address to communicate
with the LMT or M2000 and use the same internal virtual IP address to communicate with the
SCUa board.
When the active OMUa board is faulty, an active/standby switchover is performed
automatically, and the standby OMUa board takes over the OM task. In this case, the internal
and external virtual IP addresses remain unchanged. Therefore, proper communication
between the internal and external networks of the BSC6900 is ensured.
When a single fault occurs on the switching network, the active/standby SCUa boards in each
subrack are switched over automatically to ensure that the OM channel works properly.

boards (total throughput: 3.2 Gbit/s), four UOIc boards as Iu interface boards (with 32 STM-1
ports in all and supporting total throughput of 3.6 Gbit/s), and eight AOUc boards as Iub
interface boards (with 32 STM-1 ports and supporting total throughput of 4.8 Gbit/s). The
preceding configurations of DPUe, UOIc, and AOUc boards match each other, and the
remaining slots are occupied by SPUb boards, which process control-plane signaling.

When UOIc boards are used, the specifications that are expected by R13 cannot be reached.
In this typical configuration, each subrack is fully configured with five pairs of SPUb boards.
Each subrack is configured with four DPUe boards and eight UOIc boards, four UOIc boards
serving as the Iu interface boards and four UOIc boards serving as the Iub interface boards.
The preceding configurations of SPUb, DPUe, and UOIc boards match each other. If more
DPUe boards are configured, the control-plane signaling capability of the SPUb boards
becomes insufficient. The number of SPUb boards, however, cannot be increased.

P-141

When the GOUc boards are used, a small number of interface boards are required. Therefore,
each subrack can be fully configured with a maximum of five DPUe boards and five pairs of
SPUb boards.
