Alcatel-Lucent 9926 Digital 2U eNode B

BASE BAND UNIT

The Alcatel-Lucent 9926 Digital 2U eNodeB Base Band Unit is the Alcatel-Lucent converged product for WCDMA, LTE-FDD and LTE-TDD Base Band Unit (BBU). It provides a high capacity, feature rich and reliable BBU
solution for usage across multiple wireless access technologies.

The 9926 LTE Digital Module is common


between LTE and W-CDMA (9926 d2U).
This means that the same digital rack can
be configured by Software to operate in WCDMA or LTE technology.

The 9926 d2U Base Band Unit


consists of several boards managing
the eNodeB digital processing.
Core Control Module
The CCM-u (Core Control Module)
provides a Gigabit Ethernet (2 SFPs,
2 RJ45 GE) network interface, internal
communication with CEM boards,
base band samples routing and
summing. It is additionally responsible
for CPU power to manage the
eNodeB terminated flows, eNodeB
synchronization, O&M functions, and
termination of the CPRI interfaces to
RRHs
which
controls
OAM
management, part of call processing
and internal/external data
flow
switching/combining,
supporting
external/internal alarm connectivity
and
external
synchronization
reference interface. Up to two of these
modules can be installed (for a dual
technology base band or redundancy)
per 9926 LTE digital module.

Chanel Element Module


The CEM-u (Chanel Element Module), has
two main functional elements, the base-band
units (BBU), which perform all of the baseband signal processing functionality and the
interface and control unit (ICU), which
provides the data, control and timing
interfaces to the base station. The CEM-u
(modem unit) provides the scheduling Unit
for Cell fast RRM, Layer 2 Unit for the
support of MAC/RLC layers and Layer 1 unit
to process base band samples controls part
of call processing and base band
transmit/receive digital signal processing.
These modules are scalable from one to a
maximum of three (with redundancy) per
9926 LTE digital module.
Both CCM-u and CEM-u modules are Field
Replaceable Units (FRUs).
Additionally, the d2U houses an RBP (user
Rack Back Plane), supporting all internal
links between CCM-U and CEM-U modules
and a RUC (Rack User Commissioning),
which supports all commissioning of nonvolatile memories, and fan alarms.

LTE deployment scenarios


Alcatel-Lucent intend to cover both
Greenfield, standalone networks in new
spectrum bands as well as offering a
smooth evolution path for currently
deployed GSM, WCDMA/HSPA and
CDMA/EV-DO networks.
To this end, our LTE solution is designed
to integrate into existing product offerings
to support a graceful evolution to an LTE
eNode B: The solution is modular and is
composed of the digital or baseband unit
(d2U eNB), which may be deployed in a
distributed architecture with Remote Radio
Heads (RRHs) or in classical Macro
configurations with integrated Radio
Modules (i.e. TRDUs).
The d2U eNB offers wireless operators an
easy way to build LTE coverage while reusing existing cabinets (GSM, W-CDMA,
Outdoor Power Supply unit, existing 19
inch rack). Thus it enables operators to
deploy a true zero-footprint product as it
can be integrated in any cabinet where a
2U and 19 slot is available. This allows
operators to minimize their Total Cost of
Ownership (TCO), to overcome site
constraints and, to introduce LTE with best
time-to-market.

Spectrum considerations
The Alcatel-Lucent d2U eNB can be
deployed in any existing or future
frequency band. Flexible spectrum use
maximizes flexibility in the network, with
Bandwidth options of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15, or
20 MHz supported in all frequencies of
IMT-2000: 450 MHz to 2.6 GHz.

The 9926 BBU solution can concentrate


the CPRI traffic from legacy networks
together with its own traffic and thus use
common fibres up to the RRH. If
different bands are used RRH can be
daisy-chained.
