Product Description 1 Introduction
1 Introduction
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is an evolved telecom standard. It provides various technical
benefits to Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN), including:
 Reduced service delay
 Higher user data rates
 Increased spectral efficiency
 Optimized support for packet services
 Improved system capacity and coverage
LTE has flexible bandwidths, enhanced modulation schemes, and effective scheduling. In
addition, LTE allows operators to use both original and new spectral resources to provide data
and voice services.
1.1 Overview
Focusing on customer-oriented innovation, Huawei launches a series of LTE products in its
SingleBTS product portfolio. The LTE frequency division duplex (FDD) 3900 series base
stations (referred to as the 3900 series eNodeBs in this document) fully utilize Huawei
platform resources and use a variety of technologies to meet the challenges of mobile network
development.
The E-UTRAN NodeB (eNodeB) is used for radio access in the LTE system. The eNodeB
mainly performs Radio Resource Management (RRM) functions such as air interface
management, access control, mobility control, and User Equipment (UE) resource allocation.
Multiple eNodeBs constitute an E-UTRAN system.
The innovative design and flexible combinations of basic modules and auxiliary devices
encourage Huawei to diversify 3900 series eNodeB products. Figure 1-1 shows the 3900
series eNodeBs.

1.2 Benefits
Diverse Usage Scenarios and RF Module Types for Different
Network Deployment Requirements
Huawei provides two types of radio frequency (RF) modules: radio frequency unit (RFU) and
remote radio unit (RRU), which can be installed based on installation scenarios for macro and
distributed eNodeBs. Each RF module provides at least two TX channels and two RX
channels (2T2R). The modules support main LTE frequency bands and the minimum
requirement of 2x2 uplink and downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). RRUs that
are designed with 2T4R or 4T4R are adopted to meet the requirement of higher MIMO. RF
modules are also characterized by their support for various bandwidths, great TX power, and
high power amplification efficiency. 3mRRU that supports multi-carrier, multi-mode, and
MIMO is one of the smallest, lightest, and most-efficient RF modules in the industry. Diverse
usage scenarios and RF module types can meet different network deployment requirements of
operators.
SingleRAN Platform to Support Multi-Mode Base Stations and Smooth Network

Evolution
 As a SingleRAN solution, the 3900 series eNodeBs can share the mature platform with
other base stations, such as the 3900 series base stations working in GSM or UMTS
mode. Equipment of different standards can be installed in the same cabinet. An indoor
cabinet or a BTS3900AL outdoor cabinet supports a maximum of five carriers and three
standards (GSM, UMTS, and LTE).
 The 3900 series eNodeBs enable smooth network upgrade by sharing equipment with
other base stations working in the same frequency band according to the
software-defined radio (SDR) technology. This protects the original investment and
reduces the cost of network deployment.
Flexible Installation for Fast Network Deployment with a Low TCO

Flexible installation of the 3900 series eNodeBs simplifies site acquisition and achieves fast
network deployment with a low total cost of ownership (TCO). The BBU a baseband unit, can

be installed on an indoor wall or in a standard cabinet. This reduces the installation

investment. The RRU can be mounted onto a pole, tower, or concrete wall. Flexible
installation locations and low space requirements reduce site lease costs. The RRU can also be
installed close to the antenna system to reduce the cost of feeders and power consumption.

2.2 Basic Modules

The 3900 series eNodeBs feature modular design. The three basic module types include the
BBU (a baseband unit), radio frequency unit (RFU), remote radio unit (RRU), and
AAS(Active Antenna System). The BBU and RRUs/RFUs are connected using optical fibers
or cables through common public radio interface (CPRI) ports to transmit CPRI signals.

2.2.1 BBU
The BBU (BBU3900 and BBU3910) is a baseband control unit and performs the following
functions:
 Centrally manages the entire base station, including operation and maintenance,
signaling processing, and the system clock.
 Processes uplink and downlink baseband signals.
 Provides physical ports, which are used to connect the base station to the transport
network for information exchange; a maintenance channel, which is used to connect the
BBU to the operation and maintenance center (OMC); CPRI ports for
communication with RF modules; and ports for communication with environment
monitoring devices.
Figure 2-1 shows the slot layout of a BBU.
Figure 2-1 Slot layout of a BBU
NOTE
For details about the BBU3900 and BBU3910, see the BBU3900 Description and BBU3910 Description,
respectively.
2.2.2 RFU
An RFU is a radio frequency unit. RFUs modulate and demodulate baseband signals and RF
signals, process data, amplify power, and detect standing waves.
eNodeBs support RFU combination to provide a larger capacity. RFU combination is a
scheme that two RFUs working in the same frequency band are connected to the same LBBP
to serve the same sector. The configuration principles of the RFU combination are as follows:
 Two 1T2R or 2T2R RFUs of the same type can be used together.
 Two RFUs of different types that equipped with the same number of antennas can be
used together. Only sectors working in the bandwidth of 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, or 20
MHz are supported.

NOTE
 For the specifications and parameters of each type of RFU, see the description of the RFU in
question.
 LRFUe and MRFUd modules have the same appearance but can be identified by different
silkscreens.
2.2.3 RRU
An RRU is a remote radio unit. One or more RRUs constitute the RF part of a distributed
eNodeB. RRUs can be installed on a pole, wall, or stand. They can also be installed close to
antennas to shorten the feeder length, reduce feeder loss, and improve system coverage. RRUs
modulate and demodulate baseband signals and RF signals, process data, amplify power, and
detect standing waves.
eNodeBs support RRU combination to provide a larger capacity. RRU combination is a
scheme that two RRUs working in the same frequency band are connected to the same LBBP
to serve the same sector. The configuration principles of the RRU combination are as follows:

 Two 1T2R or 2T2R RRUs of the same type can be used together.
 Two RRUs of different types that equipped with the same number of antennas can be
used together. Only sectors working in the bandwidth of 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, or 20
MHz are supported.

2.2.4 AAS
The AAS is a new type of RF module. An AAS module connects to baseband signal
processing boards using CPRI ports and incorporates the functions of RF modules and
conventional antennas, which simplifies site deployment. In addition, an AAS module has
multiple transmit and receive channels and adjusts beams on the vertical and horizontal
planes, which improves radio signal coverage and expands network capacity.

2.6 BTS3900AL Cabinet

A BTS3900AL cabinet performs power distribution and surge protection. It consists of BBUs
and RFUs. As a high-integration outdoor site solution, the BTS3900AL cabinet houses a
maximum of 2 BBUs, 9 RFUs, and 9 RRUs to save installation space and ensure smooth
evolution.

When the RFU and RRU are configured together on BTS3900AL, the RFU and RRU can be
configured on the same baseband processing board. If multiple baseband processing boards
are available, it is recommended to configure the RFU and RRU on different baseband
processing boards.
NOTE
When BTS3900AL houses RRUs, an extra DCDU outside the cabinet is needed for the RRU power
supply.

2.7 DBS3900
The DBS3900 facilitates site acquisition as well as network planning and optimization, and
reduces network deployment time. It enables operators to efficiently deploy a
high-performance LTE network with a low total cost of ownership (TCO) by minimizing
investment in electricity, space, and manpower.
The DBS3900 consists of the BBU and RRUs. The BBU is characterized by its small
footprint, easy installation, and low power consumption. Therefore, the BBU can be easily
installed in a spare space at an existing site. The RRU is also compact and light. It can be
installed close to an antenna to reduce feeder loss and to improve system coverage.

NOTE
Cabinets for the DBS3900 are of two versions: Ver.C and Ver.D. The DBS3900 (Ver.C) cabinets can be
APM30H (Ver.C)/TMC11H (Ver.C)/IBBS200D (Ver.C)//IBBS200T (Ver.C)//IBBS700D

2.9 LampSite solution

2.9.1 Overview
The LampSite solution provides indoor coverage to indoor areas with high traffic, such as
office buildings, shopping malls, bars, hotels, and parking lots. In the LampSite solution, the
base station comprises the baseband unit (BBU), pico remote radio unit (pRRU), and RRU
HUB (RHUB). These modules can be flexibly combined to meet different scenario
requirements.
Like the DBS3900, the LampSite uses the same type of BBU.
The RHUB3908 and pRRU3901 are compact and light, and therefore they can be installed
anywhere indoors. The RHUB3908, which is 1 U in height, can be installed in a cabinet, rack,
shelf, or on a wall. The pRRU3901 can be installed on a wall or ceiling.
In office buildings, BBUs are installed in an equipment room, and RHUBs and pRRUs are
installed in the office areas, as shown in Figure 2-1.

Figure 2-1 Example of the LampSite
In SRAN9.0, if the customer requires the WLAN network deployment in addition to the
UMTS/LTE network, pRRUs with Wi-Fi daughter cards can be purchased and connected to
the WLAN network through GE ports on the pRRUs.

2.9.2 Typical Configurations

The following are the configuration principles for the LampSite solution:
 UMTS
− One RHUB supports one or two independent sectors, and each sector supports one or
two cells.
− One BBU supports a maximum of 96 pRRUs.
− A cell can be served by a maximum of 96 pRRUs concurrently.
− Four-level RHUB cascading is supported on a CPRI link, and the RF combining of a
maximum of 16 pRRUs is supported on this link.
 LTE
− One RHUB supports a maximum of four independent sectors, and each sector
supports only one cell.
− One BBU supports a maximum of 96 pRRUs.
− In SRAN9.0 or later, a cell can be served by a maximum of 96 pRRUs concurrently.
− In SRAN9.0 or later, four-level RHUB cascading is supported on a CPRI link, and
the RF combining for a maximum of 16 pRRUs is supported on this link. For LTE
cells, one RHUB can serve only one LTE cell that is also served by another RHUB.
 Multi-mode
− On multi-mode networks, each mode is configured separately.
− In the separate-MPT multi-mode scenario, one BBU supports a maximum of 96
pRRUs.
− In the co-MPT multi-mode scenario, one BBU supports a maximum of 48 pRRUs.
The typical configurations of the LampSite solution are shown in Table 2-18 and Table 2-19.
The LBBPd1 board is used as an example of the LBBPd board, and the UBBPd3 board is
used as an example of the UBBPd board. The following are the specifications of each
baseband board:
 Each WBBPf board supports a maximum of six UTRAN cells.
 Each LBBPd1 board supports a maximum of three E-UTRAN cells.
 Each UBBPd3 board supports a maximum of six UTRAN cells or three E-UTRAN cells.

NOTE
In SRAN9.0 or later:
As listed Table 2-19, the pRRU can connect to the RHUB through one Ethernet cable to carry the CPRI
data. Therefore, one RHUB can connect to a maximum of eight pRRUs. Table 2-20 lists the number of
required Ethernet cables for the LampSite solution in different scenarios.
In the UMTS mode, the WBBPf or UBBPd board can be used as the baseband processing board. In the
LTE mode, the LBBPd or UBBPd board can be used as the baseband board. The UBBPd board is
recommended.
When the UBBP board is used as the baseband board, the board supports only single-mode networks,
not multi-mode networks.
In the preceding tables, combination indicates combination of pRRU cells.
One pRRU has three slots, in which RF daughter boards in different modes can be configured
to achieve flexible multi-mode configurations. Table 2-20 lists the number of required
Ethernet cables for the LampSite solution in different scenarios.
