1 Introduction
Introduction
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is an evolved telecom standard. It provides various technical
benefits to Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN), including:
Reduced service delay
Higher user data rates
Increased spectral efficiency
Optimized support for packet services
Improved system capacity and coverage
LTE has flexible bandwidths, enhanced modulation schemes, and effective scheduling. In
addition, LTE allows operators to use both original and new spectral resources to provide data
and voice services.
1.1 Overview
Focusing on customer-oriented innovation, Huawei launches a series of LTE products in its
SingleBTS product portfolio. The LTE frequency division duplex (FDD) 3900 series base
stations (referred to as the 3900 series eNodeBs in this document) fully utilize Huawei
platform resources and use a variety of technologies to meet the challenges of mobile network
development.
The E-UTRAN NodeB (eNodeB) is used for radio access in the LTE system. The eNodeB
mainly performs Radio Resource Management (RRM) functions such as air interface
management, access control, mobility control, and User Equipment (UE) resource allocation.
Multiple eNodeBs constitute an E-UTRAN system.
The innovative design and flexible combinations of basic modules and auxiliary devices
encourage Huawei to diversify 3900 series eNodeB products. Figure 1-1 shows the 3900
series eNodeBs.

1.2 Benefits
Diverse Usage Scenarios and RF Module Types for Different
Network Deployment Requirements
Huawei provides two types of radio frequency (RF) modules: radio frequency unit (RFU) and
remote radio unit (RRU), which can be installed based on installation scenarios for macro and
distributed eNodeBs. Each RF module provides at least two TX channels and two RX
channels (2T2R). The modules support main LTE frequency bands and the minimum
requirement of 2x2 uplink and downlink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). RRUs that
are designed with 2T4R or 4T4R are adopted to meet the requirement of higher MIMO. RF
modules are also characterized by their support for various bandwidths, great TX power, and
high power amplification efficiency. 3mRRU that supports multi-carrier, multi-mode, and
MIMO is one of the smallest, lightest, and most-efficient RF modules in the industry. Diverse
usage scenarios and RF module types can meet different network deployment requirements of
operators.


Product Description
1 Introduction
SingleRAN Platform to Support Multi-Mode Base Stations and Smooth Network

Evolution
As a SingleRAN solution, the 3900 series eNodeBs can share the mature platform with
other base stations, such as the 3900 series base stations working in GSM or UMTS
mode. Equipment of different standards can be installed in the same cabinet. An indoor
cabinet or a BTS3900AL outdoor cabinet supports a maximum of five carriers and three
standards (GSM, UMTS, and LTE).
The 3900 series eNodeBs enable smooth network upgrade by sharing equipment with
other base stations working in the same frequency band according to the
software-defined radio (SDR) technology. This protects the original investment and
reduces the cost of network deployment.
Flexible Installation for Fast Network Deployment with a Low TCO

Flexible installation of the 3900 series eNodeBs simplifies site acquisition and achieves fast
network deployment with a low total cost of ownership (TCO). The BBU3900, a baseband
unit, can be installed on an indoor wall or in a standard cabinet. This reduces the installation
investment. The RRU can be mounted onto a pole, tower, or concrete wall. Flexible
installation locations and low space requirements reduce site lease costs. The RRU can also be
installed close to the antenna system to reduce the cost of feeders and power consumption.

2.1 Overview
The 3900 series eNodeBs are divided into macro and distributed eNodeBs. Different types of
eNodeBs are used in different scenarios, meeting requirements for fast and cos t-effective
network deployment.

2.2 Basic Modules

The 3900 series eNodeBs feature modular design. The two basic module types include the
BBU3900 (a baseband unit) and remote radio unit (RRU). The BBU3900 and RRUs are
connected using optical fibers or cables through common public radio interface (CPRI) ports
to transmit CPRI signals.
2.2.1 BBU3900
The BBU3900, a baseband unit, performs the following functions:
Provides S1 interfaces for connection to the Mobility Management Entity (MME) or

Serving Gateway (S-GW), and X2 interfaces for connection to the eNodeB.

2.2.2 RRU
An RRU is a remote radio unit. One or more RRUs constitute the RF part of a distributed
eNodeB. RRUs can be installed on a pole, wall, or stand. They can also be installed close to
antennas to shorten the feeder length, reduce feeder loss, and improve system coverage. RRUs
modulate and demodulate baseband signals and RF signals, process data, amplify power, and
detect standing waves.
eNodeBs support RRU combination to provide a larger capacity. RRU combination is a
scheme that two RRUs working in the same frequency band are connected to the same LBBP
to serve the same sector.

Software Upgrade
6.1 Principles and Method for Capacity Expansion

The capacity expansion includes RF capacity expansion, baseband capacity expansion, and
transmission capacity expansion.
RF capacity expansion
If the hardware supports the configuration after the capacity expansion, the capacity can be
expanded by adding multi-carrier licenses and increasing the power. If the hardware does not
support the configuration after the capacity expansion, the capacity can be expanded by
adding RRUs.
Baseband capacity expansion
If the boards support the configuration after the capacity expansion, the capacity can be
expanded by adding licenses. If the boards do not support the configuration after the capacity
expansion, the capacity can be expanded by adding LBBPs.
