Software Architecture
The software system of BS8700 consists of operating support layer and application layer.
Figure 24 BS8700 Software Structure
The operating support layer provides the functions of OAM, DBS, BRS, BRACS, and SCS to serve different base station mode.
OAM (Operating and Maintenance) provides the configuration, alarm and performance measurement function.
22
DBS (Data Base Sub-system) provides the database function. BRS (Bearer Sub-system) provides protocol stack processing function. BRACS (Bearer Access Control Sub-system) provides the function of access control on bear layer. SCS (System Control Sub-system) provides functions of power control/supply and active/standby switching.
Operation Support Sub-system is the support layer in this framework, which is a hardware independent platform for running software and providing basic functions like scheduling, timer, memory management, communication, sequencing control, monitoring, alarming and logging. BSP (Board Support Package) supports the information routing to the GSM, UMTS, LTE and common parts in the application layer.

The BSS/UTRAN/E-UTRAN provides a transparent channel to implement operation and maintenance information interaction between NetNumen M31 and the radio network. Management of the BSC/RNC and the BTS/Node B/eNode B adopts unified client interface for security management and operation log. NetNumen M31 also supports CORBA/SNMP Itf-N interface towards third-part NMS. BS8700 operation and maintenance system supports the following functions: Version Management
With this function, administrator can view versions of the all software and hardware running at the foreground. The hardware version includes the BOOT version number and its generation time. The software version includes the software version number, download time and its current running state.
26
The background provides a software downloading system for software download/upgrade at the foreground. Before download/upgrade, warehousing processing is required. The warehousing process will copy the version files to the server and register to the server. Software versions existing in the base stations can be activated with or without software tests. Alarm Management
The alarm management system monitors running states of the base stations, dynamically displays the rack structure of the foreground module and collects abnormal information of the boards, links, database and server in real time. These functions make it convenient to analyze, address the problems, maintenance and repair. Information collected by the alarm management system includes notification, alarm and alarm recovery. The alarm management system synchronizes alarms, reports historical alarms and current alarms, and sets and queries alarm shielding. Configuration Management
Configuration management implements functions of equipment configuration and radio configuration. Log Management
NetNumen M31 system provides the log management function. Any operation performed by operator will be recorded automatically. Thus, the operation maintenance administrator can query historical operation records. Log records are saved in the NM database server. In the BS8700, it has memory on CC board in order to preserve database, the storage time is 90 days. Security Management
Security management is implemented through user management and user group management. The user management includes the management for user name, password and user groups which the user belongs to. The user group management includes the management of user group name and authority information (indicating authorities the user group has). Performance Management
Performance management is to measure, report and provide performances statistic of base stations. Diagnosis and Test
Diagnosis and test are important components of EMS. The network administrator can check whether system hardware is working properly by diagnosis and test. They are also able to trace and fix the faults on time to secure the safe operation of the system.
