RRU3701C Module- Function

RRU3701C is the outdoor radio remote unit, receiving RF signals and then transmitting the processed signals to the BBU or the antenna system. Receives RF signals from the antenna system, down-converts the signals to IF signals, performs amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, digital downconversion, matched filtering, and Digital Automatic Gain Control (DAGC) for the IF signals, and then transmits them to the BBU. Receives downlink baseband signals from the BBU, performs filtering and digital-to-analog conversion, and up-converts RF signals to the transmitting frequency band. Multiplexes RX and TX signals over RF channels, enabling the RX signals and TX signals to share the same antenna path. In addition, it filters the RX signals and TX signals.

RRU3701C Logical Structure

IF module: Over downlink channels, the IF module performs digital upconversion and digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion. Over uplink channels, the IF module performs analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion, digital downconversion, and digital I/Q demodulation. RF module: Over downlink channels, the RF module mixes analog IF signals with the required working frequency and sends the mixed signals to the antenna after power amplification. Over uplink channels, the RF module performs lower noise amplification and down-conversion for the signals received by the antenna and then sends the analog IF signals to the IF module. Duplexer module: The duplexer enables received and transmitted signals to share one antenna channel by multiplexing received and transmitted signals over the RF channels. The duplexer module also filters received and transmitted signals. Power amplification module: The power amplification module amplifies the RF signals from the RF module. Fan module: in natural heat dissipation mode, no fan module is configured; in heat dissipation fan mode, the RRU subrack is configured with two fans for heat dissipation. Power module: The power module converts -48 V DC input into the required power output.
