4 1 Introduction Ericsson s RBS 3000 family contains a wide range of WCDMA RBSs with best-inclass radio performance for a variety of applications in urban, suburban, and rural environments. The products include unique radio features that enable significant cost savings by reducing the number of sites. The design base uses standardized modules for flexible installation and simplified maintenance, which in turn minimizes the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). All RBS 3000 products can be integrated seamlessly with existing networks, enabling effective co-siting with GSM for optimized capital and operational expenditure. Thanks to their full support for HSPA, the RBS 3000 family have given mobile broadband networks: increased peak data rates, reduced latency, and increased capacity. The Ericsson RBS 3000 family is naturally future-proof to secure operator's investments, providing an evolutionary path through HSPA, HSPA evolution and LTE over time. 1.1 The RBS 3206 a Member of the RBS 3000 Family The indoor macro RBS 3206 is designed to meet the challenging combination of high bit rates, a large number of subscribers, wide area coverage and good throughput far from the base station. The RBS 3206 can also be optimally configured for applications where the operator prefers to focus on some of the above requirements. Hence the RBS 3206 can be used throughout entire macro networks and is an ideal way of making mobile broadband and mobile TV available everywhere. The RBS can be used in both single- and dual-band configurations and supports the most common frequency bands: 2100, 1900, 1700/2100, 900 and 850 MHz. It can be configured very flexibly with combinations of up to six sectors with two cell carriers or three sectors with four cell carriers in a single cabinet. The RBS also supports a wide range of radio power classes, up to 60 W per cell carrier. The cabinet has a very high capacity-to-footprint ratio and is similar in shape to traditional GSM indoor macro cabinets such as RBS 2206, RBS 2202 and two stacked RBS 2216s. Hence the RBS 3206 makes optimal use of available space in GSM co-siting situations. Another essential feature of the RBS 3206 is its highly flexible upgrade and expansion possibilities. The RBS can initially be equipped with a smaller configuration and then be expanded over time. The RBS is fully HSPA-capable and prepared for HSPA evolution. 4

6 2 Hardware Architecture There are two similar variants of the cabinet: RBS 3206F and RBS 3206E. RBS 3206F supports six Radio Units and is used for 2100/900 MHz markets. RBS 3206E also supports six Radio Units and is used for 850/1900/ MHz markets. RBS 3206E is 10 cm higher than RBS 3206F, providing additional space in the power subrack reserved for future expansion with an additional three Radio Units beyond the six currently supported. The RBS 3206M is a partially equipped version of RBS 3206F supporting only three Radio Units. It is suitable where the initial focus is on roll-out deployment, without needs for extreme coverage, throughput or capacity. Its configurations are limited to 1 3 sectors, with up to two carriers per sector, and the power supply must be 48 VDC. The RBS 3206M cabinet may be upgraded to a RBS 3206F version, and this upgrade is required before larger configurations and other power supply voltages are possible.

8 3 The RBS 3206 Cabinet The RBS 3206 follows the traditional macro base station modular approach, with subracks containing Plug-in Units. This approach minimizes downtime and reduces the scope of changes needed for expansions, upgrades, replacement of faulty units or performance of maintenance activities. 3.1 Radio Unit (RU) The RU includes all necessary functionality for signal clipping, digital-to-analogue conversion, modulation and radio frequency amplification for the transmitter path, as well as analogue-to-digital conversion and filtering for the receiver path. The number of available RU slots for the RBS 3206 depends upon the version of cabinet: Number of RU slots: RBS 3206M: 3 Number of RU slots: RBS 3206F: 6 Number of RU slots: RBS 3206E: Filter Unit (FU) A Filter Unit contains a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and handles the radio frequency carrier splitting. The LNA has a one-tx-branch downlink and two-rx-branch uplink. The FU is frequency band specific. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 3 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Digital Subrack and Cassette The digital subrack for RBS 3206F and RBS 3206E consists of two separate baseband pools. The digital cassette for RBS 3206M consists of a single baseband pool. Each baseband pool supports up to six sector-carriers. The included board types are described below. 8

9 3.3.1 Control Base Unit The Control Base Unit (CBU) is the central control unit of the RBS. It handles several control functions and provides for the most common transport network connectivity requirements. The CBU also contains power distribution and filtering. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Transmitter Boards The baseband Transmitter Board (TXB) is fully HSDPA capable and available with different HSDPA (code) and R99 Channel Element (CE) capacities. The TXB consists of the baseband TX part, taking care of the following cell splitting, channel combining, encoding, modulation and spreading as well as handling transport channels. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 2 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Random Access and Receiver Boards The baseband Random Access and Receiver Board (RAXB) consists of the baseband RX part and handles cell combination for softer handover, decoding, RAKE receiving, searching as well as dedicated and random access transport channels. All available boards are fully Enhanced Up-Link (EUL) compatible, with versions that support 10 ms or 2/10 ms Transmit Time Interval (TTI). Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 6 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Radio Unit Interface The Radio Unit Interface (RUIF) contains point-to-point connections through cables to the RUs. The RUIF carries both signals for transmit and receive paths, as well as the digital control signals and timing signals. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 Number of units, RBS 3206E/F: 1 2 9

10 3.3.5 Exchange Terminal Boards The Exchange Terminal Boards (ETBs) provide additional, or other types of, transport network connection ports. The use of ETBs is optional since the CBU already provides 4 E1/T1-ports. It is possible to equip the cabinet with transmission options such as: E1/J1/T1, E3/J3/T3, STM-1 (channelised and non-channelised) and Ethernet. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 0 4 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Power Supply Unit The Power Supply Unit (PSU) converts incoming AC or DC voltage to 48 V DC system voltage. The PSU communicates with the CBU through the EC bus and is a required unit when the RBS is equipped with a DC Connection Unit (DCCU) or AC Connection Unit (ACCU). Number of units: Power Connection Units The RBS 3206 can be equipped with different power connection unit alternatives depending on chosen power supply DC Connection Unit The DCCU is used to connect incoming +24 V DC and 48 V DC (three wire), and to distribute it to the DC PSUs. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 (-48 VDC only) Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: AC Connection Unit The ACCU is used to connect incoming AC power and to distribute it to the AC PSUs. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 0 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E:

11 3.5.3 DC filter The DC Filter (DCF) is used to connect incoming 48 V DC (two-wire) power. The DCF is compulsory when external battery backup is used. Number of units, RBS 3206M: 1 Number of units, RBS 3206F/E: Power Distribution Unit The Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is used for internal DC distribution. It contains the fuses for the individual connections and a capacitor unit for power supply hold-over for the digital parts of the RBS. Number of units: Optional Units The optional equipment described below is located outside the RBS and can be ordered separately. The products are designed to enhance site performance but are not necessary for basic RBS functions Power and Battery Backup The recommended power and battery backup solution for the RBS 3206, when it is co-sited with GSM, is the PBC 6500 cabinet. One cabinet can serve up to two GSM RBSs together with the RBS 3206, and can provide battery capacity up to 500 Ah ( 48 V DC). Note that the RBS 3206F/E can be deployed with any of the +24 VDC, -48 VDC and AC power supply alternatives, so an existing Power Supply and battery back-up system can often be reused when deploying RBS 3206F/E Antenna System Controller The Antenna System Controller (ASC) is a double dual duplex Tower Mounted Amplifier (ddtma) unit available for the 2100 MHz frequency band. This is used on the receiving paths in order to lower the overall receiver noise figure. It is also possible to use the same feeder to receive and transmit signals. Only one ASC per sector is needed. It also has an interface for RET support. Key features: Contains 4 duplex filters Control platform for alarm handling Contains 2 LNAs with remotely controlled adjustable gain 115 kbps serial communication transceiver for feeder RET interface 11

12 3.7.3 Tower Mounted Amplifier There are a wide range of TMAs with standard (12dB) gain. Single band ddtmas exist for the 900, 1900, 17/2100 and 850 MHz frequency bands. Dual band TMAs exist for 850/1900. Variants of these have a Iuant (AISG2.0) interface for RET support. Normally, one single band TMA is required per sector while two dual band TMAs are needed per sector Wideband Tower Mounted Amplifier The Wideband TMA (WTMA) is a high gain ddtma available for the 2100 MHz frequency band Remote Electrical Tilt The RET function is used for optimization of the radio network performance, by enabling remote control of the vertical tilt angle of the antenna lobe. The operator can control the tilt via OSS-RC with the signals passing through the RBS and up the feeder cables to a converter near the antenna. The converter is either located in the ASC or TMA with RET interface, or in a Ret Interface Unit (RIU). 12

13 4 Applications Macro base stations are traditionally a one-solution-fits-all, used in the whole radio network where bit rate, coverage and capacity are essential for successful implementations. The RBS 3206 is one of Ericsson s most powerful radio base stations with superior radio performance that ensures mobile broadband and mobile TV everywhere. In the sections below, some typical site applications are described. 4.1 GSM Co-siting Solution Figure 3 GSM Co-siting Solution Operators make a large investment in site architecture to support the radio base station, site equipment and antenna system for a macro site. GSM is the most common mobile network technology and indoor macro base stations from Ericsson are the most widely deployed radio base station type. Hence there are numerous sites around the world built to optimally support indoor macro base stations. RBS 3206 is built with the same footprint as Ericsson s indoor macro GSM base stations, the RBS 2206, RBS 2202, RBS 200 and two stacked RBS 2216s. Hence RBS 3206 makes optimal use of the operator s most common site investment, fitting neatly into space reserved for expansion. 13

14 Sites with very high capacity requirements often have had GSM for many years, and some of these sites may have all space filled with older GSM cabinets having lower TRX density. A site modernization replacing older cabinets with two stacked high density RBS 2216s provides 24 GSM transceivers in a single full height footprint. The created space then is suitable for a RBS 3206F/E, offering high capacity WCDMA as well. 4.2 Metropolitan Indoor Site Figure 4 Metropolitan Indoor Site Greenfielders, without the possibility to reuse GSM sites, face issues obtaining new sites, especially in urban areas. The superior radio performance of RBS 3206 keeps the number of required sites to a minimum. Site acquisition and deployment are easier due to the small footprint of RBS

15 4.3 Rural Coverage Site Figure 5 Rural Coverage Site There are two common ways to improve the business case for WCDMA in rural areas, where the population density is lower. Sites covering extremely large areas may be used to increase the number of subscribers per base station. Alternatively, very small base stations covering just a village or valley are used to reduce the cost of the site. RBS 3206 can support extreme coverage, for example with 6 sectors and 60W per sector. This makes it suitable for the first approach described above. 15

16 4.4 In-building Coverage Solution Figure 6 In-building Coverage Solution The RBS 3206 may be used together with in-building coverage solutions. Together with a Distributed Antenna System (DAS), installed inside the building (or buildings), the RBS 3206 will offer high-speed data traffic for a large number of subscribers. RBS 3206 offers scalability with from one to six sectors, providing clear expansion opportunities for such environments where the traffic may grow rapidly if, for example, the building users replace fixed broadband with mobile broadband. 16

17 5 Configurations 5.1 Configurations in General The RBS 3206 is one of Ericsson s most powerful radio base stations and offers very flexible configuration alternatives according to different operator needs. The power and flexibility of the RBS 3206 originates in it being able to accommodate a large number of plug-in units, up to six (nine) RUs for 3206F(E), four TXBs, twelve RAXBs, eight ETBs and four PSUs New Node Deployments A traditional roll-out of a new node uses a 3 1 configuration with three RUs, and minimal baseband, transmission interface capacity and power conversion. This provides coverage to match a GSM grid with reasonable bit rates far out in the cell, at low cost. The higher output power options (40/60 W) can be used to improve the average downlink bit rate further. Three other configurations are suitable in a roll-out scenario, where the operator wants to maximize bit rates/throughput far out in the cell. This is achieved by deploying six RUs, instead of three. RBS 3206 with six RUs can be used in several configurations: 6 1, dual band, or (when available) TX diversity combined with 4- way RX diversity. Alternatively these configurations can be used for extended coverage to reduce the number of sites needed, for example in rural areas going beyond the existing GSM grid, or for greenfielders without existing GSM sites. MIMO 2 2 also requires six RUs and will double the peak downlink bit rate, and may be efficiently combined with TX-diversity, and (when available) 4-way RX-diversity. In swap/modernisation scenarios, the RBS 3206 offers a single cabinet solution capable not only of the rollout configurations above, but also supporting heavy WCDMA traffic via multiple carrier solutions. A cost-effective alternative is a three RU solution with each RU used for two carriers in one sector. A high performance solution involves six RUs with several alternatives: 3 2 with high output power, 3 3, 3 4, dual band, MIMO 2 2 and/or TX-diversity with 4-way RX diversity in a 3 2 configuration Expansions and Upgrades Flat rate tariffs for end-users, especially together with data-intensive applications such as mobile broadband drive the need for cost-effective capacity growth solutions. For maximum capacity a /30 W 1536 CE configuration is supported. The combined requirements of coverage, bit rates, throughput and capacity, and spectrum limitations can be handled by other configurations. An example of this is dual band with maximum coverage via /40 W with 900 or 850 MHz, and extra capacity at closer distances via /20 W with 2100 or 1900 MHz. 17

18 The deployment of all six RUs initially to maximize the bit rates far out in the cell effectively delays the need for capacity expansion. The need will eventually come for some sites, and here the upgrade concept, designed into the RBS 3206 architecture from the beginning, is vital. New technology, improving performance, may be introduced via compatible radio, baseband or transmission units. An RBS 3206 equipped with existing units may be upgraded to higher performance, the existing units moved to another node elsewhere in the network. Compatibility and modularity ensures minimal site impact during upgrade: the site infrastructure, the site equipment, the RBS 3206 cabinet and most of its contents all remain untouched. 5.2 Frequency Bands The RBS 3206 can be used for both single and dual band configurations, and supports the following common frequency bands: RBS Version RBS 3206M Available Frequency Bands 2100, 1900, 900 and 850 MHz RBS 3206F 2100 and 900 MHz; Dual band: 2100/900 RBS 3206E 1900, 1700/2100 and 850 MHz; Dual Band: 1900/850 MHz 5.3 Radio Configurations The cabinet can be configured in an extensive wide range of radio configuration alternatives with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 sectors in one single cabinet. The versions of RU can be freely and asymmetrically combined within the cabinet. This enables the operator for example to first choose a suitable rollout configuration (e.g W), and then add other RUs of for example a higher output power (e.g. 60 W) or other frequency band in all three or fewer sectors to optimally cater for subscriber coverage, capacity and bit rate requirements. The table below describes the number of RU-slots and the maximum configuration for the different RBS versions. RBS Version Number of RU-slots Maximum Configuration RBS 3206M RBS 3206F or 6 2, Dual band: RBS 3206E or 6 2, Dual band:

Each TX antenna sends a unique stream of data, thereby doubling the theoretical maximum bit rate. This differs to TX diversity where the same data is sent on each TX antenna. TX diversity helps avoid fading dips as the probability that a fading dip occurs for both streams is significantly reduced. Since both MIMO 2 2 and TX diversity employ two TX antennas and the same configuration in the RBS 3206, they may be used together, with some subscribers using MIMO 2 2 to increase bit rate and others using TX diversity to increase coverage by avoiding fading dips. 19
