ters of multiple segments.
END OF STEPS

Result The radio parameters of multiple segments are configured by us-


ing the copy and paste function. The radio parameters of all the
segments that are created with the copy and paste function are
the same as the radio parameters of segment[0] except BS ID
and Preamble Index.

Applying for the Mutex


Rights
Short Description The mutex rights ensure that only one user has the write rights of
an NE during a period of time. The introduction of strong rights

10 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION


Chapter 2 Configuration Management

secures the rights of the client. After a client obtains the mutex
rights, the other clients do not have the mutex rights. This ensures
the data consistency in the database.
Prerequisites � The OMC client must be started and must have accessed the
server.
� Multiple districts must be added.
Context You can apply for the mutex rights if a district exists in the system.
You do not need the mutex rights to add a district. After adding a
district, you will obtain the mutex rights of the district automati-
cally. In the left device tree of the Configuration Management
window, if a district is marked with a lock, the lock indicates the
mutex rights of the district. If a district is not marked with a lock,
it indicates that the user does not have the mutex rights of the dis-
trict and the user can apply for the mutex rights. Before the user
obtains the mutex rights of the district, the user does not have the
write rights for the district and the NEs under the district.
The mutex rights include the special strong rights. If a user has
the strong rights, the user has the mutex rights of all districts that
are managed by NetNumen ™ M31 (WiMAXOMM-B). The strong
rights can be released with by the user that is with strong rights,
while other users cannot take or release the rights forcefully.
Steps 1. Choose Views > Configuration Management to display the
Configuration Management window.
2. Choose Configuration > Mutex Management to display the
Mutex Management window.
3. In the Mutex Management window, select the district that
you want to obtain the mutex rights, and then click Apply.
If the green icon is displayed in the Status column, as shown
in Figure 10, it indicates that you have obtained the mutex
rights successfully.

FIGURE 10 MUTEX RIGHTS OBTAINED SUCCESSFULLY

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 11


ZXMBW BSS Operation Manual

4. If the mutex rights of the required district have been obtained


by another user, select the district and click Release. After the
mutex rights are released, perform step 3 to obtain the mutex
rights.
If you do not release the mutex rights of another user and click
Apply, the system prompts whether to release the rights. At
the prompt, click Yes to release the mutex rights of another
user and automatically apply for the mutex rights.
If another user is performing a special operation, the system
prompts that the another user has the mutex rights and the
mutex rights cannot be released. At this time, wait for the
user to complete the operation and close the window that cor-
responds to the strong rights before you can obtain the mutex
rights.
On the district node, you can also apply for or release the mu-
tex rights. If no other user has the mutex rights of the district,
right-click the district node and choose Apply for Mutex Right
to apply for the mutex rights of the district. If another user has
the mutex rights of the district, right-click the district node and
choose Release Mutex Right. After the release is successful,
apply for the mutex rights of the district.
END OF STEPS

Exporting and Importing BTS


Data
Function Overview
The function of importing and exporting BTS data helps in batch
BTS deployment.
The BTS data is exported to an XML file in the specified format. The
data can be processed based on a specified template file during
the data export. The export mode is determined by the macro
BTS and PICO BTS. Currently, PICO BTS data is exported based on
a template file.
No matter what export data is adopted, the data of one BTS is
exported into an XML file in the specified format. Then, the one or

more files are compressed and transmitted to the specified location


of the client.
Before importing BTS data, you can edit the exported BTS files,
mainly certain unique fields such as system, BTS IP and BS ID,
and then import the files to generate new BTSs. During the BTS
file import, the system determines the BTS type according to the
root node attribute of the XML files, and then delivers the files to
the respective import processors of the BTS types according to the
BTS types.
Before data import, the system performs validity and integrity
check on the files to be imported. If the files are invalid, the sys-
tem stops the import and informs the client.

Adjusting the BTS Transmit


Power
Short Description The RF analysis tool is used to implement RF control and RF pa-
rameter statistics functions. The RF control function is used to set
the BTS transmit power. The RF parameter statistics function is
used to record the antenna RF parameters of the current BTS so
that maintenance personnel can rapidly adjust the BTS transmit
power to be the same as before according to the RF parameter
statistics when updating the BTS.
Prerequisites The OMC client must be started and must have accessed the server.
Context RF control principle: The current transmit power decides the atten-
uation coefficient value to be adjusted after the automatic power
calibration function is enabled.
The RF analysis tool sends the value set by users to the NE. Upon
receiving a setting request, the NE writes the value into the WTRX
board. The BTS transmit power can be adjusted by modifying the
value.
Steps 1. Choose Views > System Tools > RF Analysis to display the
RF Analysis window.

Spectrum Scanning
Abstract Purpose of spectrum scanning: In the case of no user access, on
the specified antenna of the specified segment (that is, the speci-
fied carrier) in the uplink direction, the subcarriers within the con-
figured channel bandwidth are scanned. The scan result is then

Chapter 5 RF Analysis

Baseband Interference
Analysis
Short Description For broadband interference, you can make a judgment by ob-
serving RSSI. Therefore, only narrowband interference is provided
for spectrum analysis. Baseband analyses the spectrum features
of each symbol to determine whether interference exists. If in-
terference exists, the average value (sub-carrier number) at the
peak value position (interference position), variance with the peak
value, and the percentage at which the threshold is exceeded are
reported to the OMC.
Prerequisites The OMC client must be started and must have accessed the server.
Context Spectrum analysis analyzes the spectrum features of each sym-
bol within the user-specified scan cycle. When the user-specified
threshold is exceeded, the result is reported to the OMC.
Steps 1. Choose Views > System Tools > RF Analysis to display the
RF Analysis window.
2. Choose RF Analysis > Spectrum Analysis (or click on the
toolbar). Then, the Spectrum Analysis window is displayed,

Auto Calibration
Abstract During the automatic calibration process, the output power of the
RRU antenna port is automatically adjusted to the target power
specified by the user. When the RRU output power needs to be set
according to the network planning personnel in the case of new site
provisioning or when the user is unsatisfied with the RRU output
power, you can use the automatic calibration function to adjust the
output power.
Prerequisites � The OMC client must be started and must have accessed the
server.
� The following nodes are added to the tree of the Configuration
Management window: district, WBTSB, radio parameter, cell,
carrier, and segment.
Context In the case of automatic calibration, change the RRU target power
to the power required by the user in OMC configuration manage-
ment, and then perform synchronization between NE and OMC.
For new site provisioning, you can set the target power when you
set the system parameters. Then, after the system is powered on,
automatic calibration is performed.
Steps 1. Set the target power.
i. Choose Views > Configuration Management to display
the Configuration Management window.
ii. In the left pane of the Configuration Management win-
dow, select the RRU for which you want to set the target
power. Then, the RRU rack view is displayed.
iii. Right-click the WTRX board and choose Configure TRX
Parameters.

Note:
The calibration power takes Preamble power as its refer-
ence. Currently, the calibration accuracy must be within
-0.5 dB to +0.5 dB. Data power changes along with service
data, so it cannot act as the reference for calibration.

4. Perform processing in case of calibration failure.


i. In the configuration tree of the Radio Frequency Control
window, select the RRU node and click . In the Calibrate
dialog box as shown in Figure 73, click Start.

Monitoring Dry Contact


Alarms
Prerequisites � The OMC client must be started, and the client must have ac-
cessed the server.
� The communication link between the OMC and NE is normal.
Context The BTS receives the external environment information through
sensors, converts the information into OMC alarms, and reports
the alarms to the OMC. After the OMC receives the alarm, it dis-
plays the alarm with the alarm description modified by the user.
You need to query the dry contact alarms to be monitored in alarm
management. If they are not available, modify the dry contact de-
scription so that the dry contact alarms conform to actual situation.
Then, set dry contact alarms corresponding to the dry contacts in
configuration management. In this case, when alarms occur in the
actual environment, the alarms are displayed on the OMC window.
The OMC does not know the environment information represented
by the sensors, so you need to modify the description of the dry
contact alarms to make the information represented by each sen-
sor clear.
OMC provides the following alarm description by default, and it
provides 5 reserved alarm codes for customization, as shown in
Table 12. In addition, you can also modify the default alarm de-
scription provided by the OMC.

® bring the version into effect.
If a newer version is required, after ZXMBW BSS is powered on,
query the running version and compare it with the latest version.
If there are differences between the two versions, update the run-
ning version.
The order of ZXMBW BSS version transfer is follows: OMC server
® CSIM board ® target board.

Version Type List


Version software refers to the software modules running on various
boards. The software modules can be updated through download-
ing. The software modules mainly include CPU software (including
DSP), logic software (FPGA), single-chip microcomputer software
(MCU), and BOOT software. Table 13 shows the distributions of
the software modules on the boards.
� CPU software
It has operating system, and is usually used in the boards that
require high processing capability.
� Logic software
It is the software required by the hardware logic chips. It com-
pletes the functions such as protocol processing. FPGA is logic
software.

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 107


ZXMBW BSS Operation Manual

� Single-chip microcomputer software


It is the software that is running on the single-chip microcom-
puter. It usually does not have the operating system, and is
responsible for configuration and monitoring. Generally, after a
board is loaded with new single-chip microcomputer software,
the board restarts automatically. MMC and MCU are single-chip
microcomputer software.
� BOOT software
BOOT and MMCBOOT are BOOT software.
� DSP is the software for the chip that is dedicated for signal
processing.
