There are two methods of mounting the ODU and the antenna: direct mounting and separate mounting.
z The direct mounting method is normally adopted when a small-diameter and single-polarized antenna is used. In this situation, if one ODU is configured for one antenna, the ODU is directly mounted at the back of the antenna. If two ODUs are configured for one antenna, an RF signal combiner/splitter (hereinafter referred to as a hybrid coupler) must be mounted to connect the ODUs to the antenna. Figure 1-3 shows the direct mounting method.
Figure 1-3 Direct mounting
z The separate mounting method is adopted when a double-polarized antenna or big-diameter and single-polarized antenna is used. Figure 1-4 shows the separate method. In this situation, a hybrid coupler can be mounted. That is, two ODUs share one feed boom.

2.1.1 SDH/PDH Microwave The SDH microwave refers to the microwave that transmits SDH services. The PDH microwave refers to the microwave that transmits only the PDH services (mainly, the E1 services).
The IF1 board can work in the TU-12-based PDH microwave mode or the STM-1-based SDH microwave mode. The ISU/ISX2 board can work in the SDH mode and support one STM-1 or two STM-1s. The ISU/ISX2 board transmits two STM-1s in contiguous concatenation mode. That is, the VC-4 payloads of two STM-1s are transmitted, but only the regeneration section (RS) overheads and multiplex section (MS) overheads of first STM-1 service are transmitted.
SDH Microwave Unlike the conventional SDH microwave equipment, the OptiX RTN 980 has a built-in MADM. The MADM grooms services to the microwave port through cross-connections, maps the services into the STM-1-based or 2STM-1-based microwave frames, and then transmits the STM-1-based or STM-2-based microwave frames. Thus, the services can be groomed flexibly and seamless convergence between the optical network and the microwave network is achieved.

2.1.2 Hybrid/Packet Integrated IP Microwave IP microwave can transmit packet services. The OptiX RTN 980 supports the Hybrid/Packet integrated IP microwave.
Universal IF boards IFU2/IFX2/ISU2/ISX2 support Hybrid/Packet Integrated IP microwave.
IP microwave can transmit packet services and support the AM function. Traditional IP microwave is divided into two different types: Hybrid microwave and Packet microwave.
z Hybrid microwave: Native TDM services and Native Ethernet services can be transmitted through the air interface.
z Packet microwave: TDM services, ATM services, and Ethernet services after PWE3 encapsulation are transmitted through the air interface.
The OptiX RTN 980 supports the Hybrid/Packet integrated IP microwave (integrated IP microwave), and can transmit Native TDM and packet services at the same time. The packet services transmitted can be native Ethernet services or MPLS/PWE3 services, based on the software configuration of the equipment. Therefore, the equipment can support Hybrid and Packet microwave at the same time, and support a smooth upgrade from Hybrid microwave to Packet microwave.
The OptiX RTN 980 is embedded with dual service planes: TDM service processing plane and packet service processing plane. TDM services and packet services can be flexibly transmitted over the integrated IP microwave, as shown in Figure 2-3.
z TDM service processing plane Performs cross-connections on the incoming TDM services (E1 services or STM-1 services), and then transmits the services to the microwave ports.
z Packet service processing plane Performs PWE3 emulation on the incoming services (E1 services, ATM/IMA services, and Ethernet services) and encapsulates them into the MPLS packets, and transmits the Ethernet frames that bear the MPLS packets to the microwave ports. Ethernet services are directly transmitted to the microwave ports in Native mode after Layer 2 switching.

priority. When AM is switched to the reference mode, the services with higher priority can be transmitted with preference.
2.2 Modulation Strategy The SDH/PDH microwave supports fixed modulation, whereas the Hybrid/Packet microwave supports fixed modulation and adaptive modulation.
2.2.1 Fixed Modulation
Fixed modulation refers to a modulation strategy wherein a modulation mode is adopted invariably on a running radio link.

Adaptive modulation (AM) is a technology wherein the modulation mode can be adjusted automatically based on channel quality.
2.2.1 Fixed Modulation Fixed modulation refers to a modulation strategy wherein a modulation mode is adopted invariably on a running radio link.
When the OptiX RTN 980 uses the fixed modulation strategy, you can set the modulation mode and the channel spacing through the software. Fixed modulation provides specific air-interface bandwidth.
z The SDH/PDH radio link adopts the fixed modulation mode. The microwave work modes are distinguished by mode numbers. Different mode numbers represent different modulation modes and channel spacings.
z The Hybrid/packet radio link supports the fixed modulation mode. You can set a variety of combinations of modulation modes and channel spacings.
2.2.2 Adaptive Modulation Adaptive modulation (AM) is a technology wherein the modulation mode can be adjusted automatically based on channel quality.
When the AM technology is adopted, in the case of the same channel spacing, the microwave service bandwidth varies according to the modulation mode. The higher the modulation efficiency, the higher the bandwidth of the transmitted services.
z When the channel quality is good (such as on days when weather conditions are favorable), the equipment adopts a higher modulation mode to transmit more user services. In this manner, the transmission efficiency and the spectrum utilization of the system are improved.
z When the channel quality is degraded (such as on days when there is a storm or fog), the equipment adopts a lower modulation mode to transmit only the services with a higher priority within the available bandwidth and to discard the services with a lower priority. In this manner, the anti-interference capability of the radio link is improved and the link availability of the services with a higher priority is ensured.
The Hybrid/Packet microwave equipment supports the AM technology, in which the priorities of E1 services and packet services can be set. With the AM technology adopted, service transmission is controlled based on the service bandwidth and QoS policy corresponding to the current modulation scheme. The service with the highest priority is transmitted with preference.
When the Hybrid microwave equipment transmits STM-1 services and packet services at the same time, STM-1 services have the highest priority and their transmission is guaranteed.
z Priorities of E1 services The priorities of E1 services are assigned based on the number of E1 services that each modulation mode can transmit. When a shift between modulation modes occurs, only the E1 services whose number is specified in the new modulation mode can be transmitted and the excess E1 services are discarded.
z Packet service priority Through the QoS technology, packet services are scheduled to queues with different priorities. Then, the services in different queues are transmitted to the microwave port after computation of the SP or WRR algorithm. When a shift between modulation modes

occurs, certain queues may be congested due to insufficient capacity at the air interface. In this case, certain services or all the services in these queues are discarded.
Figure 2-4 shows the change in services brought by the AM technology. The orange part indicates E1 services. The blue part indicates Packet services. The closer to the edge, the lower the service priority. Under all channel conditions, the service capacity varies according to the modulation mode. When the channel is in bad conditions, the service with a lower priority is discarded.

The AM technology adopted by the OptiX RTN 980 has the following features:
z The AM technology can use the QPSK, 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM, 128QAM, and 256QAM modulation mode.
z The lowest modulation mode (also called "reference mode") and the highest modulation mode (also called "nominal mode") actually used by the AM can be configured.
z When the modulation modes of AM are switched, the transmit frequency, receive frequency, and channel spacing do not change.
z When the modulation modes of AM are switched, the step-by-step switching mode is adopted.
z AM switching is a hitless switch. When the AM scheme is downshifted, high-priority services will not be affected due to the mode switching when the low-priority services are discarded. The switching rate meets the requirement of the 100dB/s fast channel fading.

CCDP transmission adopts both the horizontally polarized wave and the vertically polarized wave on one channel to transmit two channels of signals. The ideal situation of CCDP transmission is that no interference is present between the two orthogonal signals although they are with the same frequency. In this manner, the receiver can easily recover the two signals. In actual engineering conditions, despite the orthogonality of the two signals, interference between the signals inevitably occurs due to cross-polarization discrimination (XPD) of the antenna and channel degradation. To cancel the interference, the XPIC technology is adopted. In XPIC technology, the signals are received in the horizontal and vertical directions. The signals in the two directions are then processed and the original signals are recovered from interfered signals.
2.7 Automatic Transmit Power Control Automatic transmit power control (ATPC) enables the output power of the transmitter to automatically trace the level fluctuation at the receive end within the ATPC control range. This reduces the interference with neighboring systems and residual BER.
2.8 MPLS/PWE3 Function The OptiX RTN 980 adopts the MPLS that is optimized for the telecom bearer network as the packet forwarding mechanism to implement the packet transmission of carrier-class services. The OptiX RTN 980 adopts the PWE3 technology as the service bearer technology to implement the MPLS network access of various types of services.
