Application
The Alcatel-Lucent 936x Small Cell solution provides improved coverage, dedicated
capacity and extends the macro coverage.
It is made up of Small Cells plus a small set of cluster and core network elements for
interconnection between the Small Cells and the legacy 3G network core.
An end user can connect to the Small Cell solution with any legacy handset. The Small
Cells have been designed for:
In building home (Alcatel-Lucent 9361 Home Cell)

Enterprise (Alcatel-Lucent 9362 Enterprise Cell)
Indoor public area (Alcatel-Lucent 9363 Metro Cell Indoor)
Outdoor public area (Alcatel-Lucent 9364 Metro Cell Outdoor)

Outdoor public area (9764 Metro Cell Outdoor)
The solution is based on a flat IP architecture that collapses many functions of the
traditional W-CDMA network into a device.
Elements are provided in the solution to allow a scalable interconnection to the legacy
W-CDMA network over the existing standardized 3GPP interfaces.
A real-time monitoring of backhaul bandwidth allows to take the appropriate action in
case of backhaul congestion. Quality of service information is considered when admitting
a new call. The call can be admitted, redirected to the macro network or ultimately
rejected
The solution provides support for circuit switched voice as well as W-CDMA packet data
and High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA).
The solution benefits are as follows:
Improvement of coverage and capacity at lower CAPEX/OPEX
Low latency
Easy evolution to mobile IP, IMS, LTE
Easy implementation
Improvement of coverage and quality for voice and high speed data on 3G handset
Cheaper communications, specific home tariff for all communications established at
home or in the office
Simplification and convenience (single bill, single handset, multiple lines, content
sharing)

Small cell device integrates all this into a single unit

The Small Cell is designed to support up to 32 active subscribers with 3GPP compliant
packet and circuit switched voice services and HSPA data services in the W-CDMA 850,
1900 and 2100 MHz band.
For home applications:
The Small Cell is limited in the number of UEs that may be registered as authorized to
use the Home Cell. These are kept in an ACL (Access Control List) within the Small
Cell and used to allow only authorized UEs to camp on the cell and establish a call.
The ACL can be updated by the Small Cell owner or the operator. It may be disabled
by the operator to allow public access.
As a standard, and for home application, up to 20 mW of transmit power is available,
sufficient to allow in-building coverage within the home environment. The
approximate cell radius is 30 meters, although this depends on the construction of the
building in which the Small Cell device is located as well as the prevailing RF
conditions.
The US V2 Home Cell device can be supplied with 100mW transmission power.
For enterprise and metro applications:
Groups of Small Cells are used to cover the target areas.
RF transmit power of up to 250 mW is available, depending on version and license

key.
Note: ACL and RF transmit power are provisioning data.

Equipment (UE) in the home or in the office, and the network operator to provide a
seamless service from macro to the Small Cell network.
Ethernet interface
The Small Cell provides a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface to an IP Transport
Network through an external DSL router. From V2.2 a 1000BASE-T port is available.
Tone generation
The Small Cell device generates a special tone during voice call set up, to alert the
end-user that the call is being handled by the Small Cells. This means the end-user is
made aware that the call is charged at the Small Cells network rate.
Emergency call support
The Small Cell device allows public access for emergency call establishment. An
emergency call is given priority over other services. In this scenario, the access
control list is ignored and an emergency call pre-empts an existing non-emergency
call. If the Macro cell is available, then the UE obtains service from the Macro cell. If
no coverage is available, then the UE goes into Emergency Calls only mode and
searches for any suitable cell, including the Small Cells, to camp on.
Security
Air interface security, UE identity checking, authentication, hosting party
authentication, key agreement procedures, integrity protection, encryption are
compliant with the 3GPP standards. A firewall is provided within the Small Cell unit
to protect against malicious attacks. Secure Shell (SSH) and SFTP are provided for
secure management communication with the SCMS.
Self optimization
The Small Cell unit monitors the surrounding network. It changes its Primary
Scrambling Code (up to 16 codes are provided at initial configuration) and adjust
transmit power to avoid interference. Power levels are periodically monitored and
optimized for maximum coverage and capacity without interfering with the
surrounding Small Cells and the macro network.
Information message
The Small Cell network name is displayed on the user terminal.

The Small Cell device supports two performance monitoring (PM) lists and real time
alarm which enhances the operational aspect of the Small Cells network.
National Location Lock
Enables the operator to control usage of the Small Cell device in unauthorized
countries.
Appropriate quality of service
Identifies the Ethernet link associated to the Small Cell device to apply the
appropriate quality of service.
Specific features for enterprise or public applications
Four features characterize the enterprise or public Small Cell device:
Small Cell group

A Small Cell group is used in small or medium enterprises, or in public areas where a
Small Cell device is not sufficient to cover the target area. The coverage is provided
by a group of Small Cells. All the Small Cells belonging to the same group have a
common extended Access Control list, if any, and the same billing definition
(LACx/SACx attributes).
Small Cell to Small Cell CS handover
Handover CS voice calls are possible between neighbouring Small Cells within a
Small Cells group.
Open access list
The operator can make use of Small Cells for hot spot coverage and offer access
similar to that provided in the macro network, without having to grant access to all the
Small Cells.
The user capacity can be from eight to thirty-two users in steps of eight, depending on
the version and the license key(s) purchased.
The Small Cell device can be equipped with two antennas that receive the same signal
to increase the uplink receiver sensitivity. Moreover the possibility to locate the
direction of the uplink signal originator enables cancellation of energy arriving from
other directions, which improves the reception quality.
The Enterprise Cell and Metro Indoor and Outdoor Cells support 64QAM for HSDPA
from V2 to provide increased throughput.
Power output is 100mW in V1.5 or 250mW from V2.
Enterprise Cell V2.1 has a power output of 20mW for small enterprise applications.
For LightRadio the 9764 Metro Cell Outdoor access point provides an optional
WiFi access point.
Small Cell interfaces
The Small Cell supports logical interfaces and a single physical interface through which it
connects to an IP Transport network through a backhaul interface.

Introduction
The Small Cells Cluster solution contains a single gateway called the Alcatel-Lucent 9366
Small Cell Gateway. This gateway contains the Alcatel-Lucent 9365 BSR Gateway,
Security Gateway, IPC and AAA. The BSR Gateway implements the three following
logical elements:
BSR Signaling Gateway

BSR Voice Gateway
BSR Packet Gateway
AAA Proxy
DNS/ToD
They are combined onto a single hardware platform. The BSR Gateway appears as a
single network element to the mobile network operator.
BSG functional overview
The BSR Gateway terminates the signaling interfaces going to the traditional core
network elements. Thereby it creates the notion of a single and virtual RNC.
This virtual RNC represents the Small Cell Cluster as a whole. The BSR Gateway is the
integration point between the Small Cells Cluster and the core network, which includes
the 3G-MSC for IuCS control plane purposes and the SGSN for IuPS control plane
purposes.
The BSR Gateway has the following roles:
Signaling Converter, to perform the signaling translation between the SS7 and the
Small Cell IP domains
Signaling Concentrator, so that a batch of Small Cell appears as a single RNC in the
operator's network
Mobility Gateway, to track the position of the UE in the Small Cell domain
The BSR Gateway is also used to register legal requisition information to meet regulatory
requirements. Legal authorities can access to the following data through a web server:
The Small Cell Internet Public IP address
The Small Cell Factory Serial Number

The port number of the DSL router the Small Cell connects to within the home
network
IMSI of the UE
Date, time and type of the event (SMS or call event)

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
BVG functional overview
The BVG acts as the virtual MSC router for the Small Cell cluster. It acts as the
virtual RNC router for the MSC. All user plane traffic passes through to the MSC
directly from the BVG, while signaling is handled by the BSG.
For circuit switched (CS) services, the BVG enables the separation of the user plane from
the control plane. Iu-CS signaling traffic passes through the BSG.
BPG functional overview
The BPG acts as a concentrator for the IuPS interface for a Small Cell cluster. It provides
a single IP address towards the SGSN from a virtual RNC which combines the BSG
and BPG.
The BPG performs port and address translation to enable routing to/from the many Small
Cells.
The number of BPGs per Small Cells Cluster depends on the number of Small Cells in the
cluster.
AAA Proxy functional overview
The AAA Proxy function is a standard interface to the security gateway. It helps the
security gateway to resolve authentication and authorization. It acts as a proxy to the
central external AAA server.
DNS and TOD functions
Domain name server and time of the day functions can be hosted on the BSR Gateway
hardware platform.
Hardware platforms
Up to BCR2.4.1 the BSR Gateway is supported by the SUN Server x4250 hardware
platform. From BCR3.0, the BSR Gateway is supported by an ATCA blade architecture.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Security Gateway
Security Gateway functional overview
The Security Gateway is a single network element that implements the following logical
functionalities:
Firewall(s)
IPSec router(s)
Firewall and IPSec router
The firewall function provides a Security Gateway/Firewall between the Small Cells and
the operators network, isolating the operators network from potentially harmful traffic.
The IPSec router provides secure IPSec tunnel endpoints to all Small Cells in the cluster.
The mapping is one or two IPSec tunnels for each Small Cell.
The following traffic passes through this tunnel:
All signaling traffic to/from the operator's network elements

All user plane packets
Signalling traffic for the BSG, BVG and BPG functions
All OAM traffic to manage the Small Cells
Having this centralized IPSec router avoids the need to implement IPSec on all the
network elements.
Both traffic inside and outside the IPsec tunnel(s) are subject to firewall checks.
Implementation
In previous releases, the Brick 1200HS provided the logical functionality of the
firewall(s), IPSec, BSR Voice Gateway and BSR Packet Gateway all on a single physical
network element.
In this release, the operator can use a third party security gateway or continue to use the
Brick 1200HS.
Security Gateway Management System
The Security Gateway Management System provides OAM functions for the Brick
1200HS Security Gateway.

NTP server
NTP server
The Small Cell - Network Timing Protocol (NTP) server provides the timing solution for
the Small Cell to keep the internal oscillator trained to the correct accuracy.
All Small Cells in the network derive their synchronization from the NTP server. The
server transmits NTP packets to keep the Small Cell synchronized with the network time.
This server guarantees a clock source stable in better than +/- 100 ppb.
The NTP solution can be provided by Brilliant Telecommunications or Symmetricom.
The Brilliant Telecommunications platform is the Zurich Z-1000 server. The
Symmetricom platform is the TP5000 server.

AAA server
AAA server
The Alcatel-Lucent 8950 Authentication, Accounting and Authorisation (AAA) is a server

which provides the Small Cell authentication function for the Small Cell cluster.
A Small Cell request to access the network involves the following steps:
1. The Small Cell creates an IPsec tunnel to the IPsec router.
2. The Small Cell requests the AAA to authenticate the request using a RADIUS
interface to the AAA.
The AAA performs the following functions:
Controls the challenge-response protocol between itself and the secure authentication
chip in the Small Cell when the EAP-DS2460 authentication protocol is used.
Interacts with the network to identify the Small Cell Factory Serial Number.
The AAA must be provisioned with the right information to authenticate parameters such
as the Small Cell, Serial Number and Pre-shared Key.
The AAA is provided with the adapted EAP plugin, to authenticate the Small Cell.
Note: In Small Cell V2, with the introduction of certificate-based authentication there
is no longer a need for a secure AAA server in the authentication process.
AAA and Small Cell Gateway
A standard interface is supported between the AAA* function of the Small Cell Gateway
and the AAA server. The AAA* function helps the Security Gateway to resolve
authentication and authorization. If the AAA* function cannot resolve authentication
itself, then it acts as a AAA Proxy to the central external AAA server.

DNS/DHCP server
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
DNS/DHCP server
Domain Name Server
There is a fixed mapping between a Small Cell and its IP address. Depending on operator
requirements this can be populated within the Domain Name server (DNS) to allow other
network elements to query the Small Cell address.
NEs use the DNS server to locate the IP address of other NEs within the network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
The DHCP automates the assignment of IP addresses, subnet masks, and other IP
parameters.
When a Small Cell unit connects to the Small Cell Cluster, the Small Cell sends a
broadcast query requesting necessary information from the DHCP server.
The DHCP server manages a pool of IP addresses and information about client
configuration parameters such as the default gateway, the domain name, the DNS servers.
Upon receipt of a valid request the server will assign the Small Cell an IP address, and
configuration parameters such as subnet mask and default gateway.
Time Of the Day Server
The Time Of the Day server distributes the date and time of the server to the clients. This
function can be hardware supported by the Small Cell Gateway.

IPC
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
IPC
Iu Protocol Converter
The Iu Protocol Converter (IPC) is a functional element in the Small Cell network
solution for the support of circuit switched voice and data over ATM transport.
The IPC connects a Small Cell cluster to a 3G-MSC using the Iu-CS over the ATM
interface and to a GGSN using the IuPS over ATM interface. One IPC can support up to
eight Small Cell clusters, depending on throughput requirements.
The IPC performs the following functions:
The IP to ATM conversion and vice versa for the IuCS and IuPS
For IuCS, both signaling and bearer conversion
For IuPS, signaling conversion
For the multiple media gateway feature, the IPC needs to support two media gateways per
MSC.
The IPC is only required if an ATM-based IuCS interface is required for the core network.
The IPC is not required for an IP-based IuCS interface.

Overview
The Small Cell Management is used for management of the Small Cell devices.
The architecture combines the following components:
9353 WMS Small Cells

9352 WPS Small Cells
HDM
WMS Small Cells
This topic describes the activities and the data storage for the WMS Small Cells.
Actvities
Generation of the Bulk CM file:

The Femto Adaptation Layer (FAL) of the WMS Small Cells generates the Bulk CM
file, which represents the initial model information base of the Small Cell. The file is
kept available one day after being collected by the Small Cell through Secured FTP.
Support of Small Cell software:
Small Cell software is downloaded from the WMS Small Cells to the Small Cell when
necessary (configuration phase or software upgrade). The Small Cell software is
stored on the WMS Small Cells. The software is collected by the Small Cell through
SFTP.
Small Cell Performances Management files:
Small Cell PM files are stored on the WMS Small Cells. Those counters are pushed
through SFTP every 24 Hours by the Small Cell . By default, the PM is not activated
on the Small Cell.
Small Cell RF Trace files:
Small Cell records RF Trace measurements on demand of the HDM. The RF Trace
files can be collected manually by the user through SFTP.
Small Cell faults files:
Small Cell records Small Cell faults in a log file. The log file can be collected
manually by the user through SFTP.

WPS Small Cells
This topic describes the objectives, backup function and technical implementation of the
WPS Small Cells.
Objectives
The WPS Small Cells tool suite provides users with tools to generate XML work-orders.
The workorders can be activated on the live network to implement a target configuration.
In the Small Cell network context, WPS Small Cells is used to create Small Cell profiles,
create the Small Cell clusters, create the locations and to complete the Small Cell
configuration tasks including mechanism to import/export the configuration between
WPS Small Cells and the WMS Small Cells server.
For Small Cell profile, the WPS Small Cells user creates a library of profiles that list the
majority of the parameters required for the configuration of the Small Cell. With the WPS
Small Cells toolset, this library is easily manageable.
For each Small Cell deployed in the network, the operator associates a given Small Cell
profile to specific Small Cell information such as:
The IMSI.
The IP address on the VPN (to be used inside the IPSec tunnel).
The cluster the Small Cell must be associated with.
The Security Gateway to be used.
The WPS Small Cells is used for the following tasks:
Configuration management, offering tabular editor, CM XML import/export,

work-order synchronization, configuration audit, copy/paste, template management,
model check
Small Cell profile management
Cluster management
Location management
Backup function
The backup function of the WPS Small Cells operates in the following manner:
Back office periodically generates a backup of the configuration with all Small Cell. It
contains the data managed at a back office level (such as the geographical location
information in latitude/longitude/z-coordinate format, Small Cell serial).
The WMS for Small Cells also periodically generates a network copy with all Small
Cell currently registered.
Both configurations are merged in the WPS Small Cells.

Alcatel-Lucent SC
5-6
9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Using the comparison capability of the WPS Small Cells, it is possible to retrieve the
Small Cells for which configuration is not complete, for example, cluster, security
gateway or profile is missing. You can update the uncompleted configuration using
bulk update mechanisms.
A workorder in CM XML format is generated by the WPS Small Cells. You can
import the workorder into the WMS Small Cells to see all the Small Cell updates.
In addition, the WPS Small Cells checks:
The internal configuration of the Small Cell, and
The Small Cell configuration within a cluster and the BSG.
Technical implementation
The WPS Small Cells runs on a dedicated Windows based PC and is a Java based
application. It is a generic engine, which provides a wide range of configuration
management and reporting facilities.

HDM
This topic describes the following functions:
Inventory management
Firmware image management
HDM policies
Individual configuration of the Small Cell
Inventory management
All Small Cells managed by the HDM are identified by means of their TR-069 device ID.
This identifier consists of the manufacturer name, the manufacturer OUI, the Product
Class and the device Serial Number.
The HDM stores all TR-069 object model data passed in the TR-069 Inform message.
This includes device information (vendor name, OUI, product class, serial sumber), the
WAN IP address, the URL of the connection request and connection request
username/password.
The HDM can be configured to store any selection of supported (standard or vendor
specific) TR-069 parameters in its cached data records. They contain cached values of the
last known configuration of CPE.
In addition to the TR-069 object model data, the HDM provides storage for non-TR-069
metadata for the device. This metadata informs about the state of the device (for
example Activated/Non-activated, Enabled/Disabled, Last Contact Time) and about
provisioning set as the cellid.
It also contains subscriber-related information (user-defined User Tags) and
service-related information (user-defined Service Tags and Dynamic Variables).
Firmware image management
The HDM supports Small Cell firmware and software image management using the
standard TR- 069 two-stage approach. First, the device is configured to download the
image file from the File Server (FS) / WMS for Small Cells using SFTP. Secondly, the
CPE installs the software, reboots and informs the HDM that the new version is installed.
The HDM provides a specific User Interface (UI) screen for firmware image
management. The UI allows specification of firmware images with all the required
parameters. They can also be named and consequently be referred to by name, for
example when they are used as an argument in device operations.

Alcatel-Lucent SC
5-8
9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Operators can use the UI to perform the following tasks:
Check whether a firmware version has already been defined in the system.
Check whether any configured policies use the firmware before deleting this firmware
version.
Configure a list of prerequisite versions for the firmware update. An upgrade is
possible only if the current version is in the prerequisite list.
Policies
The HDM provides some facilities to configure and manage the device by means of
policies. A policy is a rule inside HDM. It is composed of a policy trigger and a policy
action that contains a set of device selection criteria.
When the policy trigger is received from a device that matches the device selection
criteria, the HDM automatically schedules a device operation based on the specified
selection. A policy continues to run against targeted devices unless it expires or reaches a
failure threshold or retry count configured in the policy. Policies run only on devices that
are currently enabled and not locked by an operator for manual operation. The HDM
offers multiple ways to enable or disable the created policies (immediately, at a specified
date and time, for a define duration repeated daily, weekly, or monthly and so on). In
addition, the policies can be imported or exported in XML format (a use case would be to
get policies from the production environment without introducing user errors).
The results of the execution consists of a list of policy outcomes (whether each policy in
the list has been run, and if so, how many times it has run successfully or failed). The list
also provides details on the policy failure threshold (the number of devices on which it
had to fail before the policy was disabled), and whether that threshold was reached.
The HDM supports two types of policy triggers: instant triggers and event triggers.
Instant triggers are used to evaluate the list of targeted devices immediately. Event
triggers occur when an external event, such as a TR-069 Inform message, is received
from the device. A policy contains particular exit criteria, which provides specific actions
to be performed after successful policy completion.
The following actions may be included:
Changing the value of one or more user or service tags. This action allows for a
statemachine to be encoded for service activation, for example, by changing the
value of the VoIP service tag from disable to enable after successful service
activation policy execution.
Sending a connection request to the device. This action allows chaining of policies
together. In combination with the user or service tag value change, it allows
conditional execution of multiple policies.

Alcatel-Lucent SC

9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The following list is an example policy:
Change parameter x from value 2 to value 3 for a list of 1000 selected CPE based on
criteria ABC (for example within a cluster) when the event Periodic Inform has
been received.
Perform this task on a period of 2 days.
Retry maximum 3 times per CPE.
Stop the policy if 100 failures are reached.
Define the policy priority as maximal.
Individual configuration
As described in the introduction section of this topic, HDM models the Small Cell and a
subset of its management model. HDM has extensive capabilities to identify groups of
Small Cell matching a given criteria (including an individual Small Cell ), and further to
apply specific policies and actions to that filtered set.
HDM supports making configuration changes and invoking actions to Small Cell through
the TR-069 interface for a small subset of the Small Cell MIB. The typical example is the
update of the local ACL. The dynamic nature of ACL updates is automatically controlled,
without manual intervention by the HDM operator. When subscriber updates are received
from the Customer System through the HDM API, the HDM transmits updates to the
Small Cell using the TR-69 Set Parameter Values command.

System
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

System
Overview
The SCMS offers 3GPP OAM standards compliant interfaces that allow network
operators to manage Alcatel-Lucent Small Cell networks. The 3GPP compliant North
InTerFace (ITF-N) interfaces are based on the 3GPP standards, and the solutions offered
include support for the Alarm IRP as well as support of XML transfer of performance
counters files. In addition to standard 3GPP interface compliancy, the SCMS provides
other interfaces for integration into a centralized Backup and Restore solution, to a Health
monitoring system, to an Inventory solution and so on. The SCMS also interfaces to
customer care systems through Web services API and notifications.
Interface descriptions
The SCMS provides the following interfaces:
Support for the Small Cell gateway alarms (BSG, IPC).

Interfaces for integration into the network operator IT environment such as:
Centralized backup
Restore solution (Symantec Netbackup)
Health monitoring system (TEC Tivoli)
External RADIUS interface for authentication to external RADIUS server
External LDAP interface for delegation of user identity management to external
LDAP system, supplied by Engineering Services.
The Femto Adaptation Layer (FAL) in WMS Small Cells.
The FAL implements the functionality required to interact with the North Bound
Interface (NBI) of the HDM such as:
Notification processing
Bulk CM file creation
HDM support during device registration and auto-configuration.

East-West interface to ensure neighboring synchronization, for the initial start-up of
the Small Cell, between W-CDMA managing solution (WMS) and SCMS.
The FS for the XML conversion of performance counters files in 3GPP R5 XML
format.
Work order management. The work orders are CM format XML files used to send
provisioning data from the WPS Small Cells or from the operators IT system to the
WMS Small Cells.

The HDM interfaces provide the following functions:
Acquiring of the ACL information (ALC type, list) from the Small Cell after device
registration and auto configuration steps.
Web service APIs through the Northbound Interface (NBI).
The following items are covered:
Device inventory functionality

Device registration
Metadata configuration
Device management using pre/custom defined TR-069 functions, actions and

policies
All software APIs required to interact with the HDM NBI are provided by HDM
distribution:
The NBI provides web service APIs. It covers assurance-related functionality (a

set of web service methods that can be invoked from the OSS on HDM) to act on
devices from OSS through HDM.
The web services interface is implemented with web services technology that
follows the WS-Basic Profile 1.0 standard that BEA WebLogic 8.1 uses. The web
services interface is provided in the form of a WSDL file (Web Services
Description Language).
The HDM sends notifications (asynchronous events that are sent from HDM to
the OSS) on its NBI. These notifications can be interpreted as alarms and
converted to the appropriate format.
Notifications are implemented according to the JMS (J2EE) standard.
Note: ACL type means either the Small Cell local ACL or the ALC in the Small Cell
Gateway.
