System Architecture
Architecture Figure 8 illustrates the ZXMBW B9100 system architecture.
FIGURE 8 ZXMBW B9100 SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Signal Flow � Forward Service

The ZXMBW B9100 receives the forward service from AGW
through R6 interface, and implements signal coding and mod-
ulation. After that the coded and modulated signal is transmit-

ted to the RRU via fiber or local connection. The RRU performs
radio modulation, amplification and filtration on the signal, an
then the signal is radiated through the antenna and received
by access terminals.
� Reverse Service
The antenna receives the reverse service that from access ter-
minals, and passes the service to the RRU. The RRU performs
radio demodulation on the service. The demodulated signal is
transmitted to ZXMBW B9100 through fiber or local connec-
tion. The ZXMBW B9100 decodes the signal, and sends the
signal to core network via R6 interface.
Signal Flow
Service Signal Flow
In ZXMBW B9100, control plane and media plane signals are trans-
mitted through one and the same Ethernet.
Forward Signal Figure 9 shows the forward service signal flow.
Flow
FIGURE 9 FORWARD SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW

Chapter 2 Work Principle
The service signal from CN flows through AGW and into the CSIM
board via R6 interface. After Ethernet switch, it is distributed to
MPXM, MPIM and WBPM to finish the MAC and PHY processing of
baseband modulation, and then sent to RRU through the base-
band-RF optical interface.
Reverse Signal Figure 10 shows the reverse signal flow.
Flow
FIGURE 10 RESERVE SERVICE SIGNAL FLOW
The RF signal from MS flows into WBPM board through the base-
band-RF optical interface. After Ethernet switch, MPXM, MPIM and
WBPM completes the MAC and PHY processing of baseband de-
modulation. Finally, the signal is sent to AGW via the R6 interface
in CSIM board.
Clock Signal Flow

ZXMBW B9100 system clock is wholly distributed by TFM.
TFM receives the GPS satellite signal, outputs clock signals PP1S,
4CHIP and SerDes after processing, and then distributes the clock
signals to each board of ZXMBW B9100, as is shown in Figure 11.

FIGURE 11 CLOCK SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION
Power Distribution
The external -48 V power supply goes through the DC power cable
to PM via its panel inlets. PM then processes and outputs voltages
of 12 V and 3.3 V for distribution into each board in the chassis.

Chapter 2 Work Principle
Ventilation and
Heat-dissipation Principles
ZXMBW B9100 adopts forced air—cooling with front intake and
rear exhaust. It is equipped with 3 separated fan units.
The cool air blows into the cabinet through the air intake vent at
the bottom, then goes up guided by the exhaust fan and finally
gets released through the top air exhaust vent.
Figure 12 shows the air flow in the ZXMBW B9100 air channel.

ASN Network Reference

Model
The following describes the Access Service Network (ASN) network
reference model. The ASN network reference model developed
by the WiMAX (Worldwide Inter-operability for Microwave Access)
NWG (Net Work Group) is shown in Figure 60.
FIGURE 60 ASN NETWORK REFERENCE MODEL

The interface of Figure 60 are described in Table 43.
TABLE 43 INTERFACES DESCRIPTION
Interface Description
Name
R1 Air interface between the terminal and the RRU.
R3 The interface between the AGW (ASN-GW, Access
Service Network Gate Way) and the CN.
R4 Interface between ASNs, i.e. the interface between
AGWs. It implements some switching-related
signaling and established data channel to maintain
data integrity during switching.
R6 The interface between the AGW and the BS.
R7 Internal interface of the AGW. It is selective. It
divides the AGW into strategy judgment function
and implementing function.
R8 Interface between BSs.
R6 Interface
Signal The signaling between the BS and the ASN-GW is transmitted
Transmitting through the R6 Channel. It adopts a format of User Datagram
Mode Protocol (UDP) plus the format defined by the NWG stage 3. En-
capsulation channel protocol bears media layer data. R6 signaling
bearer is UDP R6 data bearer can be Generic Routing Encapsulation
(GRE), Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Virtual Local
Area Network (VLAN). ASN-GW terminates the R6 channel from
the BS. R6 channel can be realized through different Encapsula-
tion techniques GRE, MPLS or VLAN and the channel granularities
may differ. The data routing function of R6 supports negotiation
between the encapsulation protocol and the channel granularity.
Control Layer The control layer message format of the R6 interface is shown in

Protocol Stack stack.
FIGURE 63 CONTROL LAYER PROTOCOL STACK
In the Figure 63, L2/L3 connection refers to the communication

channel between two functional entities. The IP message encapsu-
lation between two functional entities is decided by the connection
feature (such as the GRE channel adopting GRE). The seal out-
side the encapsulation message should have address information
to enable the network between L2 and L3 to convey the message
to correct physical entities.
Physical Layer The physical layer of the ZXMBW B9100 R6 interface adopts packet
Interface access mode or Time Division Multiplexing Access ( TDMA ) mode.
