    Figure 1-2 Role of the BSC6000 in the network

    The interfaces between the BSC6000 and each network element (NE) in the GSM-R networkare as follows:

      Um: interface between the BTS and the MS

      Abis: interface between the BSC6000 and the BTS

      A: interface between the BSC6000 and the Mobile Switching Center (MSC) or MediaGateway (MGW)

     

    Gb: interface between the BSC6000 and the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN)

    The A, Um, and Gb interfaces are standardized interfaces, through which equipment from

    different vendors can be interconnected.

    In a GSM-R network, the BSC6000 is responsible for the following functions:

      Radio resource management

      Base station management

      Power control

      Handover management

    1.2 Benefits

    High Network Reliability

    The BSC6000 supports the following network reliability features:

      Duo-location BSC

      Single frequency double coverage

     

    BBU redundancy

      Single frequency TRX redundancy

    With these reliability features, single pints of failure are avoided in the BSS, thus improving

    network reliability and ensuring continuity of network operations in the case of NE outage.

    Duo-location BSCThe duo-location BSC feature enables two BSCs working in active/standby mode to connect

    to the MSC/SGSN and the BTS at the same time. In normal cases, the active BSCcommunicates with the MSC/SGSN and the BTS to provide services, and the standby BSC

    communicates with the MSC/SGSN and the BTS only to establish physical connections.When the active BSC is faulty, the standby BSC automatically takes over.

    Single frequency double coverage

    The single frequency double coverage feature enables two BTSs working in active/standbymode to cover the same area. In addition, only one of the BTSs is working at any specific

    time. The two BTSs use identical frequencies. In normal cases, the active BTS works properly,whereas the standby BTS works but does not transmit power. When the active BTS is faulty,

    the BSC triggers the switchover between the active BTS and the standby BTS. Specifically,the active BTS is downgraded to standby, whereas the standby BTS is upgraded to active.

    This reliability feature ensures a fully backed-up radio coverage while using only the

    frequencies necessary for a single layer coverage.

    BBU redundancy

    The BBU redundancy feature enables an RRU to establish physical connections with two

    BBUs working in active/standby mode at the same time. In normal cases, an RRUcommunicates with only the active BBU, and also supports the switchover between CPRI

     ports. When the active BBU is faulty, the BSC triggers the switchover between the activeBBU and the standby BBU during which the CPRI ports are also switched over. In this

    manner, the RRU communicates with the standby BBU.

    Single frequency TRX redundancy

    The single frequency TRX redundancy feature enables a BTS to be configured with a standby

    TRX that shares the same frequencies with an active TRX. When the active TRX is faulty, thestandby TRX is automatically activated to take over as the active TRX, thus improving

    network availability and ensuring continued network even in the case of a TRX failure

    High Integration and Low Cost

    The BSC6000 features large capacity and high integration. A single BSC6000 cabinetsupports a maximum of 2048 TRXs, which meets the requirements for the GSM-R network

    along tracks. In addition, the BSC6000 takes a small space and reduces power consumption.

    Easy Configuration and Convenient Maintenance

    The BSC6000 has a small number of board types. In addition to transmission boards, theBSC6000 cabinet houses network switching boards, signaling processing boards, and service

     processing boards. Simplifying board types reduces the maintenance cost. The interface boards and service boards, not bound together, are flexible in configuration and easy to

    maintain and expand.

    2 Architecture2.1 Overview

    The BSC6000 has a modular design. It enhances resource utilization and system reliability byfully interconnecting subracks and applying distributed resource pools to manage the service

     processing units. The backplane is universal and every slot is common to different types of boards to perform various functions. In this way, the universality and evolution of the

    hardware platform are improved.

    2.2 Hardware Architecture

    2.2.1 Cabinets

    The BSC6000 uses a Huawei's standard N68E-22 cabinet. The design complies with theIEC60297 and IEEE standards.

    A BSC6000 cabinet is made up of subracks. There are three types o f subracks:

      Main Processing Subrack (MPS)

      Extended Processing Subrack (EPS)

      Transcoder Subrack (TCS)

    A BSC cabinet (also known as rack) can be of three different types, depending on the

    subracks with which it is populated:

     

    Cabinet type 1: Main Processing Rack (MPR)

      Cabinet type 2: Extended Processing Rack (EPR)

      Cabinet type 3: Transcoder Rack (TCR)

    Each cabinet (rack) type has to follow configuration rules in terms of the number and type ofsubracks it contains. If the number of subracks in a cabinet is less than three, the subracks

    should be configured from the bottom of the cabinet upwards, as shown in Figure 2-1.

    various resources.  Manages the resources and OM status, responds to the resource

    request from the upper layer, and hides the resource implementation

    from the upper layer.

      Provides various service resources. (These resources are closely

    related to the hardware. They encapsulate the TC/PCU and isolate theservice control of the upper layer from the hardware platform to

    facilitate hardware development.)

    2.4 ReliabilityThe resource pool design and redundancy mechanism are widely used in the system reliabilitydesign of the BSC6000. Techniques for detecting and isolating faults in the boards and in the

    system are optimized and the software fault tolerance capability is improved to enhance

    system reliability.

    2.4.1 System Reliability

    The BSC6000 system reliability is designed with the following features:

     

    High reliability architecture designDual switching planes, with up to 120 Gbit/s GE star non-blocking switching capability per subrack, solves the bottleneck and single point failure in the deployment of the

    high-capacity BSC6000.

    Moreover, port trunking technology has been adopted on the switching boards. The porttrunking function allows data backup in case of link failure, thus preventing inter-plane

    switchover and cascading switchover and improving the reliability of intra-systemcommunication.

    Dual clock planes are used in clock transmission between the GCUa and the SCUa. Thus,a single point of failure does not affect the normal operation of the system clock.

      Resource pool design

    In case of overload, the system implements load sharing between the control plane and

    the user plane by employing the full resource pool design. This effectively avoidssuspension because of overload, thus improving resource usage and system reliability.

      Redundancy mechanism

    All the hardware in the BSC6000 has adopted the redundancy mechanism. The rapidswitchover between active and standby parts improves system reliability. Moreover, with

    the quick fault detection and recovery feature, the impact of faults on the service isminimized.

      Flow control

    The system performs flow control based on the CPU and memory usage. Thus, theBSC6000 can continue working by regulating the items pertaining to performance

    monitoring, resource auditing, and resource scheduling even in the case of CPU overloadand resource congestion. Therefore, system reliability has been enhanced.

    2.4.2 Hardware Reliability

    The BSC6000 hardware reliability is designed with the following features:

      The system uses a multi-level cascaded and distributed cluster control mode. SeveralCPUs form a cluster processing system. Each module has distinct functions. The

    communication channels between modules are based on the backup design oranti-suspension/breakdown design.

      The system uses the redundancy design, as described in Table 2-5, to support hot

    swapping of boards and backup of important modules. Therefore, the system has a strongerror tolerance capability.

    Table 2-5 Board redundancy

      A fault isolation mechanism is used. When entity A fails to accomplish a task, entity Bthat has the same functions as entity A takes over the task. Meanwhile, entity A is

    isolated until it is restored.

      When a board with a single function is faulty, restarting the board will generally solve

    the problem.

      All boards support dual-BIOS. Faults at one BIOS do not affect the startup or operation

    of the boards.

      The system uses the non-volatile memory to store important data.

      With advanced integrated circuits, the system features high integration, sophisticated

    technology, and high reliability.  All the parts of the system are of high quality and have to pass the aging test. The

     process of hardware assembly is strictly quality-controlled which ensures the highstability and reliability for long-term operation.

    2.4.3 Software Reliability

    The BSC6000 software reliability is designed with the following features:

      Scheduled check on crucial resources

    The software check mechanism checks various software resources in the system. If aresource deadlock occurs because of software faults, the check mechanism can release

    the locked resources and generate related logs and alarms.  Task monitoring

    When the software is running, internal software faults and some hardware faults can be

    monitored through the monitoring process which keeps track of the task running statusand reports errors to the OM system.

      Data check

    The software performs regular or event-driven data consistency check, restores the data

    selectively or by preference, and generates logs and alarms.

      Data backup

    Both the Back Administration Module and the host board support data backup to ensure

    data reliability and consistency.  Operation logs

    The system automatically records the history operations in logs. The operation logs help

    in locating and rectifying faults caused by improper operations.

    3 Configurations3.1 Overview

    Depending on whether or not the BSC6000 has a dedicated TCS for performing thetranscoding function, the BSC6000 supports two types of configuration modes: BM/TC

    combined mode and BM/TC separated mode.

    3.2 Hardware Configuration in BM/TC Combined ModeIn BM/TC combined mode, the BSC is not configured with the TCS. The boards thatimplement the TC functions are inserted into the slots of the MPS or EPS. With the same

    capacity, fewer cabinets and fewer subracks are required in the BSC, thus increasing hardwareintegration.

    3.3 Hardware Configuration in BM/TC Separated ModeWhen the BSC is located in a remote equipment room, it is configured in BM/TC separated

    mode. The BSC is configured with a separate TCS, which is located in the TCR on the MSCside. Thus, transmission resources between the BSC and the MSC are saved because the voice

    codec used on this interface is the efficient 16 kbit/s GSM codec.

    Figure 4-1 OM networking of the BSC6000

    The OM system of the BSC6000 adopts the browser/server (B/S) separated mode. The OMUb

     board of the BSC6000 acts as the server. The Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) is used for

    local maintenance. The iManager M2000 is the centralized OM system, which is used forremote maintenance. The configuration management express (CME) implements the remotedata configuration of the BSC6000 by providing a graphical user interface (GUI).

    The alarm box connects to the LMT and provides audible and visible indications for alarms.

    4.2 Benefits

    Web-based LMT Improving User Experience

    The OM system of the BSC6000 uses the web-based LMT, which need not be installed withany OM software. You can connect the LMT to the OMUb board to perform OM functionsand obtain the online help of the LMT. All the operation results are displayed on the LMT

    through the web browser.

    Diversified OM Modes

    The BSC6000 provides local and remote maintenance and supports multiple OM modes.

    The LMT used for local maintenance can access the BSC6000 in the following ways:

      Through the port on the panel of the OMUb board

      Through the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)

    Powerful Hardware Management Functions for Rapid Location and Rectification of

    Hardware Faults

    The BSC6000 provides a precaution mechanism for hardware fault, thus ensuring sufficient

    time to rectify the fault before services are disrupted.

    The BSC6000 also provides other functions, such as status query, data configuration, andstatus management of the internal physical devices.

    When a hardware fault occurs, the BSC6000 alerts the user by generating alarms and flashing

    indicators, and provides suggestions to guide the user in troubleshooting. The alarm is clearedupon rectification of the fault.

    The BSC6000 provides functions for isolating the faulty part, such as activating ordeactivating the faulty part. When a faulty part needs to be replaced, the hot swapping

    function enables the substitute to be rapidly powered on, thus reducing the time required forfault rectification.

    In case of emergency, you can reset the board to quickly rectify the fault.

    Advanced Software Management Functions for Secure and Smooth Upgrade

    The BSC6000 provides the remote upgrade tool, which enables the operator to upgrade the

    software at the operation and maintenance center without affecting ongoing services. Theremote upgrade tool backs up crucial data in the system. If the upgrade fails, a version

    rollback is performed immediately and the system returns to normal in a short period.

    After the upgrade is complete, a version consistency check is performed to ensure that theversion is correct.

    Rich Tracing and Detection Mechanisms for Reliably Monitoring Network Status

    The BSC6000 provides tracing and detection functions of multiple layers and multiple levels

    to accurately locate faults. These functions include user tracing, interface tracing, messagetracing, fault detection on the physical layer, fault detection on the data link layer, and

    detection of other faults.

    Tracing messages are saved as files, which can be viewed through the review tracing function

    of the LMT.

    Easy Equipment Installation, Commissioning, and Efficient Network Upgrade Scheme

    for Rapid Network Establishment

    Before delivery, Huawei BSC6000 is installed with boards, operating system, and common

    data. In addition, it is correctly assembled and passes the rigorous test. Only the cabinet and

    cables need to be installed at the site. After hardware installation is complete, the software anddata files can be loaded to commission the software and hardware.
