5 Environment Monitoring PrinciplesThis chapter describes environment monitoring principles for eNodeBs. Environmentmonitoring detects the following environmental conditions of an eNodeB: temperature,humidity, water damage, smoke, unauthorized access, and power distribution faults. Toimplement environment monitoring, the eNodeB is equipped with environment monitoringdevices and configured with external environment alarms, including Boolean alarms and anEMUA alarm.
Ports on a UPEUThe Universal Power and Environment Interface Unit (UPEU) is a mandatory board of aneNodeB. It is configured in slot 18 or 19 in BBU3900. A UPEU provides two EXT-ALM portsand two MON ports for connections to environment monitoring devices. The ports are described
as follows:l Each EXT-ALM port supports four Boolean inputs. The two ports are used for connections
to Boolean signal sensors and to dry contacts in a cabinet. The EXT-ALM ports can be connected to the environment monitoring ports, including
the alarm port and in-position signal port, on a +24 V DC/DC power subrack in aBTS3900 cabinet. In this way, PSU status is monitored.
The EXT-ALM ports can also be used for eight Boolean inputs from sensors, such asa door status sensor and water sensor. In this solution, data configuration is required.For example, door status and water damage alarms must be defined for the eNodeB.
l Each MON port supports one RS485 monitoring signal input. The two ports are used for
connections to environment monitoring devices inside and outside a cabinet. A MON port can be connected to an environment monitoring device in a cabinet. The
type of the device varies depending on the type of the cabinet.
For example, an APM30H cabinet is installed with a Central Monitoring Unit type A(CMUA) for centralized monitoring of environment in the APM30H cabinet. TheCMUA provides ports for connections to the door status sensor and smoke sensor andalso provides a port used for three Boolean signal inputs.
Signals of environmental alarms detected by the sensors connected to the CMUA are processed directly by the LMPT. Therefore, no data configuration is required.
A MON port can also be connected to an Environment Monitoring Unit type A (EMUA),which is an environment monitoring device outside an APM30H cabinet, for centralizedmonitoring of environment outside the APM30H cabinet.

The EMUA is 1 U high. It can be installed in a 19-inch rack with its depth exceeding300 mm or in a 19-inch cabinet.
The EMUA provides dedicated ports for connections to sensors such as door status,smoke, water, temperature, and humidity sensors. In addition, the EMUA provides
extended ports for 32 Boolean and analog signal inputs. If the EMUA is used to monitor environment outside a cabinet, data configuration is required. If the dedicated ports onthe EMUA are insufficient for environment monitoring, the extended ports can be usedand related data configuration is required.
The alarm monitoring devices connected to the UPEU (such as dry contacts, sensors, and theEMU) are collectively called peer alarm devices in the subsequent sections.
Connections to EXT-ALM Ports
The type of the cable connected to an EXT-ALM port varies depending on the type of the peer
alarm device.l If the peer alarm device is a +24 V DC/DC power subrack in a cabinet, two signal cables
are required. For details about how to install the cables, see the BTS3900 (Ver.B) LTE Installation Guide or BTS3900 (Ver.C) Installation Guide .
Connect one end of an in-position signal cable for the PSU (DC/DC) to the EXT-ALM0 port and the other end to the in-position signal port on the power subrack.
Connect one end of a monitoring signal cable for the PSU (DC/DC) to the EXT-ALM1 port and the other end to the alarm port on the power subrack.
l If the peer alarm devices are Boolean signal sensors, add a terminal to one end of a BBUalarm cable by referring to Table 5-1 , connect the terminal to a Boolean signal sensor, andthen connect the RJ45 connector at the other end of the cable to the EXT-ALM0 or EXT-ALM1 port.

6 eNodeB Synchronization ModesThis chapter describes the clock synchronization modes of eNodeBs. eNodeBs supportsynchronization with the following clocks: GPS/RGPS clock, GLONASS clock, IEEE1588 V2clock, Clock over IP, synchronous Ethernet, 1 PPS+TOD clock, BITS clock, and E1/T1 lineclock. If an eNodeB fails to obtain clock signals, it works in free-run mode for a certain periodof time.
Synchronization refers to maintenance of the relation that at a valid point of time, the phase error or frequency error between two or more signals stays within the specified range. There are twotypes of synchronization: frequency synchronization and time synchronization.
l Frequency synchronization means that the frequency of a signal is the same as the referencefrequency but the origin of the timescale for the signal does not need to be the same as that
for the reference clock.l Time synchronization is also referred to as time-of-day synchronization, where the origin
of the timescale for a signal needs to be synchronized with the Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). Therefore, time synchronization implies synchronization in absolute time. TheUTC time is a universal timing standard, in which the atomic clock is maintained accuratelyto ensure time synchronization across the world, with the precision to microseconds.
The subsequent sections describe the preceding reference clocks. For details about clock synchronization, see the Synchronization Feature Parameter Description .
GPS/RGPS Clock
Synchronization with a GPS or RGPS clock requires that each eNodeB be equipped with a GPSor RGPS receiver. Using the receiver, the eNodeB receives GPS or RGPS clock signals with the
precision to microseconds. In synchronization with a GPS or RGPS clock, both frequencysynchronization and time synchronization are applicable. To implement synchronization withan RGPS clock, the eNodeB must be equipped with a USCU.
GLONASS Clock
If an eNodeB synchronizes with the GLONASS clock, it achieves synchronization by obtainingclock signals from a GLONASS receiver. The GLONASS clock supports both frequencysynchronization and time synchronization, with a precision to microseconds. To synchronizewith the GLONASS clock, an eNodeB must be equipped with a USCU board.

32/133
IEEE1588 V2 Clock
IEEE1588 defines the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which targets synchronization of clocksin the Ethernet, with the precision to microseconds. In synchronization with an IEEE1588 V2clock, both frequency synchronization and time synchronization are applicable.
Clock over IP
Clock over IP is a Huawei proprietary frequency synchronization technology, in whichfrequency synchronization packets are transmitted over IP. Clock-over-IP signals are transmittedto eNodeBs based on a server/client architecture. In synchronization with a clock over IP, onlyfrequency synchronization is applicable, with the frequency accuracy lower than 0.05 ppm.
Synchronous Ethernet
The synchronous Ethernet technology has the basic principles that a downstream node traces
the upstream clock by recovering clock signals from the serial data bit streams received at the physical layer. In synchronous Ethernet, only frequency synchronization is applicable, with thefrequency accuracy lower than 0.05 ppm.
1 PPS+TOD Clock
In synchronization with a 1 PPS+TOD clock, the eNodeB obtains 1 PPS signals and Time of Day (TOD) signals to implement time synchronization. The 1 PPS signals are used for timesynchronization. The TOD signals are used to transmit the time information, type of the referenceclock, and working status of the reference clock.
BITS ClockIn synchronization with a BITS clock, the eNodeB is connected to a BITS synchronizationnetwork through the BITS clock card in the eNodeB to obtain frequency synchronization signals.After phase lock and frequency division, the main clock unit in the eNodeB converts thesynchronization signals into various types of clock signals required for the eNodeB. Toimplement synchronization with a BITS clock, the eNodeB must be equipped with a USCU.
E1/T1 Line Clock
In synchronization with an E1/T1 line clock, the eNodeB obtains frequency synchronizationsignals from the physical layer of E1/T1 lines. This clock synchronization mode is applicablewhen S1 data is transmitted over an E1/T1 network. To implement synchronization with an E1/T1 line clock, the eNodeB must be equipped with a UTRP.
Free-Run
Without an external clock source, a base station continues to work for at least 90 days in free-run mode.

eNodeBs support both local and remote operation and maintenance.
l In local OM mode, maintenance personnel use the Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) tooperate and maintain a single eNodeB.
l In remote OM mode, maintenance personnel use the M2000 or LMT to operate andmaintain eNodeBs in a centralized manner in the operation and maintenance center (OMC).
Figure 7-1 OM system of eNodeBs
As shown in Figure 7-1 , the OM system of eNodeBs consists of the following elements:
l LMT: is mainly used to assist eNodeB deployment, identify faults, and rectify faults locally.l M2000: is Huawei centralized OM system, which consists of the M2000 server and the
M2000 client. M2000 can be connected to eNodeBs of different models and versionsthrough an OM network for remote centralized operation and maintenance. This mode isrecommended when eNodeBs communicate with M2000 properly.
l eNodeB: is the object of the operation and maintenance.
The required OM software, as described in Table 7-1 , must be installed on maintenanceterminals for operation and maintenance of eNodeBs.

l Fault isolation and self-healing bring the following advantages: (1) prevents a fault in some part of an eNodeB from affecting the entire eNodeB; (2) re-establishes a cell of lower specifications to minimize the impact of the fault on services.
l The alarm correlation function enables the system to report only the alarm indicating the
root fault and the ultimate impact on services though there are chains of problems caused by the root fault.
Performance Management
Performance management includes the periodic control on eNodeB performance measurementand the collection, storage, and reporting of performance statistics.
eNodeBs collect performance statistics every 15 or 60 minutes. If communication between aneNodeB and the mobile Element Management System (EMS) fails, the eNodeB can store amaximum of three days of performance measurement results. The performance measurementcovers eNodeB-level and cell-level performance, neighboring cells, transmission, standardinterfaces, and the device usage.
eNodeBs support real-time monitoring of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) at intervals of oneminute, which helps detect and identify faults in time.
Security Management
Security management provides the eNodeB authentication and access control functions, whichinclude user account management, rights management, login management, identityauthentication, and operation authentication.
In addition, security management involves security control on the channels between eNodeBsand an EMS. The channels support encryption using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or IP Security(IPSec).
Security management provides network- and user-level security service. It provides thefollowing functions:l Encryption: encryption of important user informationl Authentication: management of user accounts and authentication of usersl Access control: control of operation accessl Security protocol: support for SSL and IPSec
Software ManagementSoftware management includes software version management, software version upgrade, and
patch management.
l Software version management involves query, backup, and restore of software versions.l Software version upgrade can be performed on a batch of eNodeBs remotely. With the one-
click upgrade wizard provided by M2000, users can perform health checks before and after the upgrade and back up, download, and activate the software. During this process, userscan check the upgrade status and results. eNodeBs support automatic updates of configurations during upgrades, and users only need to follow the instructions in theupgrade wizard. In addition, eNodeBs support rapid version rollback by running a singlecommand, reducing the impact of upgrade failures on the system.

l Patch management includes query, download, loading, activation, deactivation, rollback,and removal of patches. Installing patches does not affect system services.
Deployment Management
The eNodeB deployment solutions include board-ready transportation, automatic discovery of eNodeBs, initial configuration by using a USB disk, and remote deployment. These solutionsgreatly reduce the workload and efforts of field installation personnel. No computer is required.The personnel only need to install the hardware.
l Board-in-cabinet transportation indicates that base stations come with RFUs, PMUs, PSUs,and BBU3900s installed and with cables laid. Board-in-cabinet transportation shortensonsite hardware installation duration.
l With the automatic discovery of the eNodeB, users do not need to set the IP addresses of the eNodeB and EMS.
l Users can download software and data of an eNodeB from a USB disk, thereby saving timeespecially when the bandwidth of transmission between the eNodeB and the EMS isinsufficient.
l During remote deployment, software commissioning is performed in the Operation andMaintenance Center (OMC) rather than on site. Customers can perform acceptance testson the eNodeB deployment in the OMC.
NOTE
The security of the USB port is ensured by encryption.
Equipment Management
Equipment management includes data configuration, status management, and fault detectionand handling for all the devices in an eNodeB. On the device panel, users can view the devicestatus and perform blocking, reset, and switchover.
Inventory Management
Inventory management includes collection and reporting of the inventory information abouteNodeBs. With inventory management, users can manage network equipment (NE) assets in theOMC in a centralized manner.

8.1 System Reliability
System reliability is ensured by using the intra-board baseband resource pool, LMPT coldredundancy, and RRU channel cross-connection under MIMO.
Intra-Board Baseband Resource Pool
Intra-board b aseband res ource pool is designed to enable dynamic allocation of basebandresources based on the specifications and load status of an LBBP. This increases the usage of
baseband resources and improves system reliability.
The functions of the baseband resource pool are as follows:
l If all resources of an LBBP are used to serve a single cell, users are allocated different baseband resources in a fair manner based on the baseband load on the LBBP.
l Full redundancy of intra- or inter-cell baseband resources is achieved. When some basebandresources are unavailable, the associated services can be diverted to other available
baseband resources. In this way, the services in the cell can be restored.
LMPT Cold Redundancy
Each eNodeB supports LMPT cold redundancy, in which two LMPTs in BBU3900 work inactive/standby mode. When the active LMPT experiences a major fault or a user runs theswitchover command, an active/standby switchover is performed automatically or manually,respectively.
LMPT cold redundancy prevents system collapse caused by LMPT failures and therefore ensuressystem reliability of eNodeBs. An active/standby switchover, however, interrupts eNodeBservices for less than three minutes.
RRU Channel Cross-Connection Under MIMO
RRU channel cross-connection under MIMO is implemented by cross-connections of RF jumpers between RRUs/RFUs and antennas and data switching in the connected LBBP. Thisfunction improves reliability of the entire network with no requirement for additional hardware.It partially achieves self-healing, preventing permanent failures to provide services in cellscaused by faults in a single RRU or RFU.
This function is applicable in scenarios where three sectors are configured on three 2T2R RFunits. When an RRU or RFU serving a sector fails, the sector is degraded from MIMO to SingleInput Single Output (SISO), preventing total service failure in the entire sector. At the sametime, another sector using the RRU or RFU is also degraded from MIMO to SISO. After thefault of the RRU or RFU is rectified, the sectors change from SISO back to MIMO automatically.In this way, self-healing is achieved.
Figure 8-1 shows the cable connections between RRUs and antennas and data streams. Thecable connections and service data flows for RFUs are the same as those for RRUs.

Figure 8-1 Cross-connections between RRUs and antennas under MIMO and data streams
l In the uplink as shown in Figure 8-1 , the CPRI ports receive data from RRU 0 and RRU
1. After user plane data of sector 0 is separated from data of the other sectors, the user planedata of sector 0 is sent to the module in the LBBP that processes data of sector 0.
l In the downlink as shown in Figure 8-1 , user plane data of sector 0 in the LBBP is sentthrough different CPRI ports to RRU 0 and RRU 1.
l If RRU 0 shown in Figure 8-1 is faulty, user plane data of sector 0 can be exchangedthrough RRU 1.
8.2 Hardware ReliabilityHardware reliability is ensured by the anti-misinsertion design of boards, overtemperature
protection, reliable power supply, and surge protection design.
Anti-misinsertion Design of Boards
When a board of one type is inserted into a slot for another type of board, the board cannotconnect to the backplane. This protects the equipment from damage.

Overtemperature Protection
When the temperature near the PA in an RF unit of an eNodeB is too high, the eNodeB generatesovertemperature alarms and immediately shuts down the PA. This protects PA from damage
caused by overtemperature.
Reliable Power Supply
The reliable power supply is achieved using the following techniques:l Support for wide-range voltages and surge protectionl Power failure protection for programs and datal Protection of power supply against overvoltage, overcurrent, and reverse connection of
positive and negative poles on boards
Surge Protection DesignSurge protection is applied to AC and DC power ports and various input and output signal portssuch as E1/T1 and FE/GE ports of eNodeBs.
8.3 Software ReliabilitySoftware reliability is ensured by the redundancy of important files and data and the powerfulerror tolerance of software.
RedundancyeNodeBs provide the redundancy function for important files and data, such as software versionsand data configuration files, to ensure proper operation of the eNodeBs when errors occur inthese files and data.
l Redundancy of software versions: An eNodeB stores software versions, including theBootROM version, in different areas to provide redundancy. If the active version isabnormal, the eNodeB switches to the backup version.
l Redundancy of data configuration files: An eNodeB stores data configuration files indifferent areas to provide redundancy. If the current file is damaged, the eNodeB cancontinue working properly by loading the backup file.
l Redundancy of boards: Two boards of the same type can work in active/standby mode.When the active board fails or is faulty, the standby board takes over, ensuring proper operation of the eNodeB.
Error Tolerance
When software errors occur, eNodeBs will not collapse, because of their self-healing capability.The software error tolerance covers the following aspects:
l Scheduled check of key resources: eNodeBs perform occupancy check on softwareresources. If resource hang-up occurs in an eNodeB due to software errors, the eNodeBcan release the unavailable resources in time and export logs and alarms.

l Task monitoring: eNodeBs monitor the running status of every task for all types of errorsand faults, if any. When an error or a fault occurs in a task, an alarm is reported and self-healing measures are taken to restore the task.
l Data check: eNodeBs perform scheduled or event-triggered data consistency checks and
restore data consistency selectively or preferentially. In addition, eNodeBs generate relatedlogs and alarms.
l Watchdog: eNodeBs detect system faults through the software and hardware watchdogs.When an error occurs in an eNodeB, the eNodeB automatically resets to restore itself to anormal running status.

l Faults in an upper-level RRU may affect the operation of its lower-level RRUs.
NOTE
RFUs do not support the chain topology.
Ring topologies are classified into the following types: hot backup ring, intra-board cold backupring, and inter-board cold backup ring. Figure 9-4 , Figure 9-5 , and Figure 9-6 show thesetopologies respectively.
Figure 9-4 Hot backup ring
In the hot backup ring topology, two CPRI links transmit identical service data, but the LTE baseband processing unit (LBBP) where the cell is established and the RRU process data on onelink only. If a CPRI port is faulty, services are switched over to the other CPRI link, with amaximum interruption time of 500 ms. If the LBBP where the cell is established is faulty, thecell is reestablished on the other LBBP, with a maximum service interruption time of 20s.
NOTE
The hot backup ring topology has the following constraints:l Only ports 0, 1, and 2 on the two LBBPs can be used in this topology.l The two LBBPs are installed in two slots among slots 0, 1, 2, and 3 in the BBU. If one is installed in slot 0,
the other can be installed only in slot 2 or 3.l
If the two LBBPs are installed in slots 2 and 3 in the BBU, a maximum of three rings are supported betweenthe LBBPs. In other situations, only one ring is supported.

Figure 9-5 Intra-board cold backup ring
In the intra-board cold backup ring topology, if a CPRI port is faulty, the cell is reestablished,with a service interruption time shorter than 20s.
Figure 9-6 Inter-board cold backup ring
In the inter-board cold-backup ring topology, if a CPRI port or LBBP is faulty, the cell isreestablished on the LBBP or the other LBBP, with a service interruption time shorter than 20s.
The advantage of ring topologies is that they are a redundancy type of the chain topology andtherefore provide higher transmission reliability.
Ring topologies have the following disadvantages:
l The number of cascading levels and cascading distances are restricted.l RRUs working in different modes cannot be cascaded.l Faults on the forwarding link of an upper-level RRU affect the operation of its lower-level
RRUs.
