5. INTRODUCTION

This TSN gives the user guidelines and instructions on how to replace an existing FSMD/E System module with FSMF System module while maintaining the existing site functionality, features and capacity. The instructions will cover both dedicated 3G BTS as well as 3G-2G RF Sharing site scenarios. References to the existing Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS documentation are made (available in NOLS). WCDMA RAN, Rel. RU40, Operating Documentation, Issue 03. Check WCDMA RAN, Rel. RU40, Operating Documentation Change Delivery sets for latest updates.


6. SW MANAGEMENT

Out of box FSMF System module is delivered with so called ‘factory load SW’.

6.1 FSMF factory load SW

All new FSMF version A.103 modules are delivered with preinstalled LN4.0 1.2 (LN4.0 ENB 1202_781_57) SW that has hardware security enabled (SW Verification Agent). Repaired FSMF version A.102 modules are also updated to same LN4.0 1.2 (LN4.0_ENB_1202_ 781_57) SW since week 11/2014. After this, FSMF version A.102 works exactly the same as FSMF A.103, including RAN2423 SW Verification agent (WCDMA) and LTE940 SW Verification agent (LTE/TD-LTE) features. Some FSMF A.102 modules delivered from NSN hubs may still contain older factory SW (LN4.0_ENB_1202_696_00). In this case it is recommended to check the possible SW upgrade options in reference documentation (chapter 8).

RAN2423 SW Verification agent (WCDMA) and LTE940 SW Verification agent (LTE/TD-LTE) have been enabled in RU30/RU40/RL40/RL50/RL25/RL35 BTS SW’s and onwards. Therefore, SW versions listed in 6.2 are recommended to assure successful SW update. For further details, refer to TS-LTE_BTS_FDD-SW-0047 Severe issue - introduction of the LTE940 - SW Verification Agent and WCDMA RAN, Rel. RU40, Operating Documentation, Issue 03, RAN2423: SW Verification Agent. BTS Site manager compatibility vs. FSMF factory load To complete LTE to WCDMA SW update there is no need to have compatible LTE BTS Site manager available as WCDMA BTS Site Manager can be used as well. While FSMF is initially running LTE SW and when using WCDMA BTS Site manager, the BTS Hardware view will be limited though and no modules can be displayed. However, SW update is possible from FSMF factory load (LTE) to RU30/RU40 BTS SW (WCDMA).

Figure 1: Incompatible BTS Site manager view

If a firewall is installed on the PC, you may need to configure it to allow TCP ports 13062 – 13092 to accept incoming connections from the Flexi Multiradio BTS. This TCP port must be ‘open’ to enable FlexiBTS Site Manager software downloading and commissioning file transfer to BTS. For further information, contact your System Administrator or IT Helpdesk.


6.2 SW update – New, out of box FSMF

Figure 2: Out of box FSMF SW update to WCDMA

6.3 SW update – Used FSMF

FSMF A.102/A.103 used previously in LTE/TD-LTE

Figure 3: Used FSMF SW update to WCDMA


6.4 SW updates from WN8.0 2.1 to WN8.0 3.1 and later

Once WN8.0 2.1 is activated to WCDMA BTS and further SW upgrade is planned to WN8.0 3.1 or later, in some cases BTS is requesting additional reset due to changed link speed validation functionality. When 3Gb link speed SFP’s are used on optical link between FSMF and RF modules / when RF module does not support 6Gb link speed, additional reset is not needed.


7. INSTRUCTIONS

The instructions given in this section are used to prepare the FSMF system module for the site visit. References to the operating documentation (in NOLS) can be found in ‘Further details’ column.

7.1 Time required

The total time needed for the entire swap depends on the site specific requirement and how much preparation was done in advance. There are many ways to implement FSMF swap, this approach is typical to make necessary changes with existing tools.

7.2 Preparations

In order to minimize outage time during FSME/D to FSMF swap, it is recommended to perform certain activities in advance/remotely. However, all these steps can also be done while on site. Tools required

T20 screwdriver for tightening grounding cables, front cover etc.

T15 screwdriver / 3 mm hex tool for DC input cable tightening on FPFD

2,5 mm hex tool for DC out port cable tightening Materials

FSMF Flexi System Module

Optional sub-modules (FTIF, FBBA, FPFD) needed on target site and front cover

1.1

- Establish remote BTS Site manager connection to the existing WCDMA BTS equipped with FSME/D module.

- Store 2 files: 1) Backup commissioning file, select ‘BTS’ as Target, ‘File -> Backup Commissioning Files…’ and save it to local directory. 2) Save Snapshot (select ‘Current data in BTS Site Manager’ option to save time) and

save it local directory.

Backup SCF and snapshot is stored to local directory.

Snapshot can be viewed with offline BTS Site manager while setting TRS parameters for FSMF commissioning.

WBTS licenses

1.2

As RAN1849 BTS Licensing Logical Target ID for Flexi BTS is valid for FSMF, no manual license installation / substitution process is needed if pre-conditions from RAN1849 are considered: -There must be 24 h break in between before the re-use of a FSM or FRM in another BTS -Not both – FSM and RF Modules must be replaced at the same time

When BTS pool license is exported from NetAct, it’s possible to regenerate it and import it to NetAct again as BTS pool license.

RAN2131 Automatic License Distribution to Flexi BTS

When feature is not in use, BTS pool license cannot be transferred from NetAct to BTS in automatic way.

3 Install BTS Site manager and prepare LAN connection

3.1

- Install compatible WCDMA BTS Site manager to PC. - Connect Ethernet cable between FSMF LMP port and personal computer. Note: PC’s network port properties must be modified as follows: - Set IP address to 192.168.255.126 and subnet mask to 255.255.254.0. Specifying a default gateway is not required.

BTS Site manager installation successfully completed.

FSMF A.102 LTE factory load compatible BTS Site manager LN4.0_1202_759_00 is delivered with LN4.0 RL40 0.0.5 in NOLS. FSMF A.103 LTE factory load compatible BTS Site manager LN4.0_1202_765_02 is delivered with LN4.0 RL40 1.1.2 in NOLS.

4 Power up FSMF and check running SW versions

4.1

- Connect power source to DC in port and

power up FSMF. - Open WCDMA BTS Site manager and establish local connection with FSMF. Note: New FSMF is running LTE technology based factory SW. To check running SW version, select Update SW to BTS Site and

current BTS SW version is displayed.

FSMF comes up and local BTS Site manager connection is established.

6.1 FSMF factory SW If a firewall is installed on the PC, you may need to configure it to allow TCP ports 13062 – 13092 to accept incoming connections from the Flexi Multiradio BTS. This TCP port must be ‘open’ to enable Flexi BTS Site Manager software downloading. For further information about the specific firewall installed on your PC, contact your System Administrator or IT Helpdesk.

Update BTS SW

4.2

SW update path with factory new FSMF. Check SW compatibility and supported SW upgrade paths in chapter 6. - Download and activate WCDMA BTS SW on top of FSMF factory load/current SW load. Note: FSMF with factory load requires

compatible LTE BTS Site manager in order to have detected HW modules displayed. If FSMF is not updated to desired RU30/RU40 BTS SW, and LTE BTS Site manager is not available, no HW modules are displayed in BTS Site manager. In this case only RFM LEDs indicate detected status with is blinking green/red depending on the RFM variant.

SW update successfully completed. Time required: FSMF only – approximately 15 min FSMF with RFM’s – approximately 18 - 20 min FSMF is ready for site installation.

BTS SW file transfer requires about 10 minutes. After this FSMF unit remains in reset state for another 5 minutes. The BTS manager connection will resume automatically at the end. In total approximately 15 minutes is required. Additional SW update may be required on site due to incompatible RFM SW versions. When FSMF is prepared prior to system module replacement, RFM detection can be confirmed from BTS Site manager Hardware view display with compatible WCDMA BTS Site manager.




Further details

5 Prepare SCF (BTS part) for FSMF – start compatible BTS Site manager

5.1

- Start BTS Site manager in ‘Create File’

mode.

- Optionally, convert FSME/D commissioning data when connected to FSMF (step 9.1).

‘Create commissioning file’ view is displayed in

BTS Site manager view.

BTS Site manager in ‘Create File’ is

referred as ‘offline conversion’. The conversion of FSME/D commissioning data for FSMF use can be also done when connected to FSMF. Both BTS and TRS parts are converted during commissioning steps. Therefore, the SCF preparation prior to site visit is optional.

Prepare SCF (BTS part) for FSMF - In ‘Introduction’ page,

5.2

- Select ‘BTS’ option as ‘Target’, select ‘Create file from existing commissioning file’ and locate previously stored backup

commissioning file of BTS Site equipped with FSME/D (Backup file consists BTS part).

With RU30 Backup commissioning file

Example: Backup SCF from WN7.0 2.0. - Select ‘Convert’ to continue BTS

commissioning file conversion to FSMF use.


Example: Backup SCF from WN8.0 1.0. - Select ‘Next to continue BTS


FSME/D BTS commissioning file is converted to FSMF commissioning file. FSMF TRS commissioning parameters to be manually added.

The offline conversion of FSME/D TRS commissioning file to FSMF TRS commissioning file is not supported by WCDMA BTS Site manager. TRS parameters shall be manually added while navigating through commissioning wizard. Therefore only BTS part of the SCF can be converted for FSMF use with ‘Create file’ mode. Alternatively, the conversion of FSME/D TRS commissioning data for FSMF use can be done when connected to FSMF. Both BTS and TRS parts are converted during commissioning steps. Therefore, the SCF preparation prior to site visit is optional.




Further details

5 Prepare SCF (BTS part) for FSMF - In ‘HW selection’ page,

5.3

- Replace System module ‘FSME/D’ with ‘FSMF’

If optional FBBA is not used: - Radio module positions from existing configuration are automatically displayed.

If optional FBBA is used: - add FBBA with ‘Add BB extension’ and select ‘FBBA (472182A)’ module(s).

- If additional RFM’s are added during FSMF swap, add ‘Radio module’ to available index on available optical port positions.

RF SHARING (WCDMA BTS) EIF2/RF6 port is used to provide RP3-01

synchronisation for the slave BTS.

FSME/D is removed and FSMF (and optional FTIF and FBBA) are added to BTS configuration. By adding optional FBBA submodules, the increased Flexi BTS baseband capacity can be used for R99/ HSDPA/ HSUPA traffic processing or additional CCCH and interference cancellation processing. HW configuration of BTS commissioning file is completed.

5.4

When external GPS synchronization is received from another BTS, In synchronization source BTS’

commissioning, - select ‘Forward synchronization in co-siting’ and ‘GPS in use’.

In chained BTS synchronization

commissioning, - select ‘GPS in use’ and ‘GPS control interface blocked for co-located BTS’.

Synchronization source/sharing is set.

In synchronization source BTS, time synchronization can be done based on GPS control data. In chained BTS, GPS control data cannot be used for time synchronization due to one way control data from synchronization source BTS. Hence, NTP is required for time synchronization. In BTS SCF, commissioning parameter ‘gpsCtrlBlockForCoLocatedBts’ is set as ‘True’ to close GPS communication port on BTS so that it does not confuse time synchronization with NTP. See 7.5.2 FSMF synchronization cables, 7.5.3 FSMF GPS feeding cables

5 Prepare SCF (BTS part) for FSMF - In ‘Automatic License Distribution Settings’ page,

5.5

R99 Channel Elements (CE)

- Set a value for R99 traffic. CCCH Processing set

FSMF contains resources for Common Control Channels processing for basic configurations. One CCCH pool is included in FSMF capacity which does not require any license. In case when more cells or higher cell radius is needed additional baseband resources (CCCH pools) and CCCH Processing Set licenses need to be allocated for CCCH processing. - Provision license key in use in NetAct License manager or alternatively in BTS Site manager - License Management. RU30 / WN7.0 3.0

- In RU30, there is no requirement to commission the number of licenses for CCCH Processing sets. You do still need to include the number of CCCH processing sets as part of the baseband dimensioning exercise. CCCH Processing Set license keys are still required and BTS will automatically request the appropriate number from NetAct. RU40 / WN8.0 2.0 onwards

- In RU40, enter a value ‘CCCH processing set’ according cell configuration.

Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

When additional CCCH processing sets are added by BTS commissioning, no BTS reset is required.

In case of FSMF, the Rel99 CE license defines the maximum capacity for pure Rel99 traffic. HSDPA/HSUPA schedulers are not consuming Rel99 CE licenses. One FSMF subunit provides capacity of 96 Rel99 CE’s. Number of subunits available: FSMF: 5.5 FSMF + 1 x FBBA: 11.5 FSMF + 2 x FBBA: 17.5 WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, CCCH requirements for Multiradio 10 BTS system modules

Note: In RU30 to RU40 SW

upgrade, with configurations that require additional CCCH Processing Sets, e.g. 2+2+2/20km, additional CCCH processing set(s) need to be manually defined in RU40 by re-commissioning BTS. Since no value can be set in RU30 for CCCH Processing Set, BTS Site Configuration File (SCF) does not have a parameter set. During RU30 to RU40 SW upgrade, SCF conversion does not cover parameter for CCCH Processing Set, therefore it needs to be added by re-commissioning BTS.

5 Prepare SCF (BTS part) for FSMF - In ‘WCDMA Carrier Candidates and Local Cell Group Settings’ page,

5.6

In case of BASEBAND CAPACITY CHANGE from 2 x FSME to 1 x FSMF and more than 6 cells with HSPA are present,

- select ‘Local cell groups in use’ and ‘Frequency based grouping’ or ‘Sector based grouping’ based on your

reference.

In ‘Carrier Candidate and local cell groups’,

- set ‘Local cell group’. When ‘Local cell

groups in use’ is selected, at least 2 groups must be defined. Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

. . . Example: MultiBand 3+3+3/1+1+1, 3xLCG, 12 cells 20 Km and 3+3+3+3, 3xLCG 12 cells 20Km.

. . .

Local cells are distributed to required Local cell groups. If ‘Local cell groups in use’ is not selected, and

max. 6 cells are present, all local cells are added to Local cell group 1.

Local Cell Grouping allows

splitting available baseband capacity into baseband pools responsible for processing traffic from dedicated group of cells. Local Cell Grouping may be needed in case of BTSs with many cells, and can be used in Multi Operator RAN (MORAN). It is possible to use MORAN without Local Cell Grouping and dedicated baseband allocation. Frequency layer based commissioning

- All cells from frequency layer(s) must be dedicated to the same Local Cell Group. Sector based commissioning

- Dedication of cells from the same frequency layer(s) to different LCGs is allowed. - Dedication of cells from the same frequency layer(s) to the same LCG. In this case sector based commissioning might give the same results, as frequency layer based commissioning. WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

When more than 6 cells with HSPA are present, With 2 x FSME, one local cell group is defined. - 1 x LCG and 9 cells 20Km. With 1 x FSMF, at least 2 LCG’s must be defined - 2 x LCG and 9 cells 20Km, - 3 x LCG and 12 cells 20Km.

In ‘Baseband (BB) and HSPA license allocations’,

- set BB and HSPA license allocation values according Local Cell Group preference. Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

Example: MultiBand 3+3+3/1+1+1, 3xLCG 12 cells 20 Km and 3+3+3+3, 3xLCG, 12 cells 20Km.

In ‘Mapping HSPA local cells to baseband HW and Parallel Interference Cancellation (PIC),

- set ‘PIC pools’ starting from lowest number

available and select ‘Next’ to continue. Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

Example: MultiBand 3+3+3/1+1+1 3xLCG, 12 cells 20Km and 3+3+3+3, 3xLCG, 12 cells 20Km.

BB/HSPA license allocation and optional PIC pools are set. If ‘Local cell groups in use’ is not selected, BB

and HSPA license allocation and PIC pool setting is not available.

WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

When more than 6 cells with HSPA are present, for example 3+3+3 and Multi Band 3+3+3/1+1+1 configuration With 2 x FSME, one local cell group is defined. - 1 x LCG and 9 cells 20Km. With 1 x FSMF, at least 2 LCG’s must be defined - 2 x LCG and 9 cells 20Km, - 3 x LCG and 12 cells 20Km. The maximum available baseband capacity of FSMF for pure traffic depends on - Local Cell Group (LCG) - configuration type - Additional CCCH processing resources (if needed) - Number of activated Interference Cancellation units (PIC pools) - HSUPA static resources (optional static reservation for HSUPA data/voice users) and - HS_Cell_FA CH_UL static resources (optional static reservation for HS-FA CH UL users).

HSDPA BTS processing set 1 - 32 users and 7.2Mbps HSDPA BTS processing set 2 - 72 users and 21Mbps HSDPA BTS processing set 3 - 72 users and 84Mbps.

Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km,

In total, 1 x 21 + 2 x 84 Mbps = 189Mbps of licensed capacity available for all schedulers.

Scheduler licensed throughputs are calculated as per given formula (scheduler throughput steps from step 5.8) Scheduler 1 - LCG 1 = Round down {(1 + 4*2) * (12 /(12+6+6+3)) } * 21 Mbps = 84 Mbps

Scheduler 2 - LCG 1 = Round down {(1 + 4*2) * (6 /(12+6+6+3)) } * 21 Mbps = 42 Mbps



HSDPA processing set(s) are commissioned.

The HSDPA BTS processing set describes the maximum HSDPA capability that allows reaching a certain number of HSDPA users and DL throughput WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

Formula for scheduler licensed throughput:

If there are only HSDPA Processing Set 2 and three licenses are present in BTS, the division of licensed throughput will be done for each scheduler according to the formula below:

Scheduler_licensed_throughput = Round_down { (Number_of_HSDPA_Processing_Sets_2 + 4* Number_of_HSDPA_Processing_Sets_3) * (Scheduler_HSDPA_throughput_step / Total_number_of_HSDPA_throughput_step_per_BTS) } * 21 Mbps

If after calculations presented above throughput for all schedulers is lower than total licensed throughput in the BTS, the remaining throughput is distributed between activated schedulers.

Schedulers are prioritized in the following order:

a) Scheduler with lowest value of licensed throughput divided by commissioned throughput; b) Schedulers belonging to LCG with the lowest ID (in case of Normal HSPA configuration where 2 HSDPA schedulers activated, scheduler#1 is prioritized over scheduler#2).

In case BASEBAND CAPACITY CHANGE from 2 x FSME to1 x FSMF and more than 6 cells with HSPA are present,

- select ‘HSDPA throughput’ according

Local Cell Group preference. Each HSDPA throughput step corresponds to 7.2Mbps. Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

Optional HSPA setting is selected and HSDPA throughput steps are selected.

There are three LCG configuration types available for FSMF which describes HSPA capability (number of HSPA supported cells and number of HSDPA/HSUPA schedulers). Rel.99 only configuration

Max number of supported cells = 12 Max number of HSPA cells = 6 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 0 Small HSPA configuration

Max number of supported cells = 6 Max number of HSPA cells = 6 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 1 Normal HSPA configuration

Max number of supported cells = 12 Max number of HSPA cells = 12 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 2 The LCG configuration type is set during B TS commissioning for each LCG separately using HSPA setting parameter. If not commissioned then ‘Normal HSPA’ configuration is assumed by default. WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

The scheduler provides HSDPA throughput, which depends on activated features, number and type of BTS processing sets, and HSDPA throughput commissioning by the operator. The HSDPA throughput step has No impact on HSDPA baseband capacity allocation but it is used for HSDPA licensed throughput distribution among available schedulers. In addition it can be used to limit HSDPA scheduler throughput.

R99 Channel Elements (CE)

- Set a value for R99 traffic. CCCH Processing set

FSMF contains resources for Common Control Channels processing for basic configurations. One CCCH pool is included in FSMF capacity which does not require any license. In case when more cells or higher cell radius is needed additional baseband resources (CCCH pools) and CCCH Processing Set licenses need to be allocated for CCCH processing. - Provision license key in use in NetAct License manager or alternatively in BTS Site manager - License Management. RU30 / WN7.0 3.0

- In RU30, there is no requirement to commission the number of licenses for CCCH Processing sets. You do still need to include the number of CCCH processing sets as part of the baseband dimensioning exercise. CCCH Processing Set license keys are still required and BTS will automatically request the appropriate number from NetAct. RU40 / WN8.0 2.0 onwards

- In RU40, enter a value ‘CCCH processing set’ according cell configuration.

Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km. 2 CCCH processing sets required.

When additional CCCH processing sets are added by BTS commissioning, no BTS reset is required. R99 CE’s and CCCH processing set(s) are defined.

In case of FSMF, the Rel99 CE license defines the maximum capacity for pure Rel99 traffic. HSDPA/HSUPA schedulers are not consuming Rel99 CE licenses. One FSMF subunit provides capacity of 96 Rel99 CE’s.

Note: In RU30 to RU40 SW

upgrade, with configurations that require additional CCCH Processing Sets, e.g. 2+2+2/20km, additional CCCH processing set(s) need to be manually defined in RU40 by re-commissioning BTS. Since no value can be set in RU30 for CCCH Processing Set, BTS Site Configuration File (SCF) does not have a parameter set. During RU30 to RU40 SW upgrade, SCF conversion does not cover parameter for CCCH Processing Set, therefore it needs to be added by re-commissioning BTS.

In total, 1 x 21 + 2 x 84 Mbps = 189Mbps of licensed capacity available for all schedulers.

Scheduler licensed throughputs are calculated as per given formula (scheduler throughput steps from step 9.7) Scheduler 1 - LCG 1 = Round down {(1 + 4*2) * (12 /(12+6+6+3)) } * 21 Mbps = 84 Mbps




HSDPA processing set(s) are commissioned.

The HSDPA BTS processing set describes the maximum HSDPA capability that allows reaching a certain number of HSDPA users and DL throughput WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

Formula for scheduler licensed throughput:

If there are only HSDPA Processing Set 2 and three licenses are present in BTS, the division of licensed throughput will be done for each scheduler according to the formula below:

Scheduler_licensed_throughput = Round_down { (Number_of_HSDPA_Processing_Sets_2 + 4* Number_of_HSDPA_Processing_Sets_3) * (Scheduler_HSDPA_throughput_step / Total_number_of_HSDPA_throughput_step_per_BTS) } * 21 Mbps

If after calculations presented above throughput for all schedulers is lower than total licensed throughput in the BTS, the remaining throughput is distributed between activated schedulers.

Schedulers are prioritized in the following order:

a) Scheduler with lowest value of licensed throughput divided by commissioned throughput; b) Schedulers belonging to LCG with the lowest ID ( in case of Normal HSPA configuration (2 HSDPA schedulers activated) scheduler#1 is prioritized over scheduler#2).

In ‘HSDPA throughput’,

- select a value according Local Cell Group requirements.

This setting is optional. If ‘Max throughput’ is left as ‘System default’, then 84Mbps is

allocated to every 1-6 non-MIMO cells.

In case BASEBAND CAPACITY CHANGE from 2 x FSME to1 x FSMF and more than 6 cells with HSPA are present,

- select ‘HSDPA throughput’ according

Local Cell Group preference. Each HSDPA throughput step corresponds to 7.2Mbps. Example: 3+3+3, 2xLCG, 9 cells 20Km.

Optional HSPA setting is selected and HSDPA throughput steps are selected.

There are three LCG configuration types available for FSMF which describes HSPA capability (number of HSPA supported cells and number of HSDPA/HSUPA schedulers). Rel.99 only configuration

Max number of supported cells = 12 Max number of HSPA cells = 6 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 0 Small HSPA configuration

Max number of supported cells = 6 Max number of HSPA cells = 6 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 1 Normal HSPA configuration

Max number of supported cells = 12 Max number of HSPA cells = 12 Number of HSDPA schedulers = 2 The LCG configuration type is set during B TS commissioning for each LCG separately using HSPA setting parameter. If not commissioned then ‘Normal HSPA’ configuration is assumed by default. WCDMA RAN and Flexi Direct BTS, Rel.RU40, Operating Documentation Dimensioning WCDMA RAN: Flexi BTS Baseband, Flexi System Module Rel.3 HSDPA scheduler

The scheduler provides HSDPA throughput, which depends on activated features, number and type of BTS processing sets, and HSDPA throughput commissioning by the operator. The HSDPA throughput step has No impact on HSDPA baseband capacity allocation but it is used for HSDPA licensed throughput distribution among available schedulers. In addition it can be used to limit HSDPA scheduler throughput

When RCUA+WMHC is used with FSMF, - allocate IP address for RCUA according to the principles described in the WCDMA RAN documentation. A public IP address/routing must be arranged also for the RealTilt Solution according to the same principles. - connect the device via external 10/100 Mbit switch/hub. RCUA works with 10 Mbit/s speed with no auto negotiation support. - see further details for performing RealTilt commissioning. Continue to navigate through the rest of the commissioning steps and before sending parameters, save commissioning file for reference / RF sharing to introduce WBTS commissioning to 2G BTS.

If a firewall is installed on the PC, you may need to configure it to allow TCP ports 13062 – 13092 to accept incoming connections from the Flexi Multiradio BTS. This TCP port must be ‘open’ to enable Flexi BTS Site Manager commissioning file transfer to BTS. For further information about the specific firewall installed on your PC, contact your System Administrator or IT Helpdesk.
