Chapter 3. Equipment Description

Antennas

Intracom Telecom provides a variety of specially designed PtMP antennas for


the WiBAS™ stations at 10.5 / 26 / 28 / 32 / 42 GHz.
WiBAS™ provides small-sector antennas for WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB and
parabolic(1) antennas available on various diameters for WiBAS™ OSDR-TS
Terminal Stations. Fig. 14 shows indicative Base and Terminal Station
antennas.
WiBAS™ antennas are attached to OSDR-HUB (or OSDR-TS), through a
well-protected flange, with no external adapters, cables or waveguides in
between(2). This results in better performance and reliability in sensitive high
frequency bands (26 / 28 / 32 / 42 GHz), since there are no interconnection
losses and no sensitive material is exposed to extreme environmental
conditions for a long time. Also, minimum space is occupied and OSDR-HUB
with its antenna (or OSDR-TS with its antenna) can be handled as a single
unit, lowering transportation, installation and replacement costs.

The chapter includes the following sections:
• 4.1. Radio Functionality
• 4.2. Ethernet QoS & Functionality
• 4.3. Network Synchronization
• 4.4. OSDR-HUB Protection

4.1. Radio Functionality

The features that contribute to the WiBAS™ advanced radio functionality,


include:
• Link Adaptation Mechanism
• Statistical Multiplexing
• Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation

29
Chapter 4. Description of WiBAS Key Functions

Link Adaptation Mechanism

Introduction In wireless links operating at very high frequencies, both air performance and
service availability may suffer from bad weather conditions. An effective
solution to this problem is the use of appropriate link adaptation.

Mechanism WiBAS™ employs an advanced hitless link adaptation mechanism, which


description dynamically increases and decreases modulation, coding (FEC rate –
Repetition), as well as transmit (Tx) power, based on the link’s CINR quality
metrics. This mechanism increases the gain budget as well as link availability.
During stormy weather, for instance, WiBAS™ may automatically fall back on
more robust modulation formats so that the link remains operable. QoS
ensures that high-priority traffic remains unaffected, while low-priority traffic is
served up to the throughput of the remaining capacity of the system.

Fig. 23: WiBAS™ adaptability enhances link availability

Benefits • Ability for each WiBAS™ station to operate at different modulation.


• Efficient spectrum utilization.
• Leading air throughputs and system gain.
• Range extension without change in link robustness.
• Guaranteed uninterruptible delivery of critical services.
• Excess capacity can be exploited to deliver value-adding, packet-based
services.

WiBAS™ OSDR
System Description - Edition 2.0

Statistical Multiplexing

Introduction WiBAS brings to operators the benefits of statistical multiplexing for


exploiting the system’s available capacity at the maximum.

Description Instead of dedicating fixed bandwidths for the several downlink wireless
connections (Fig. 24-A1), a single, wide-bandwidth pipe is used (Fig. 24-B2)
to serve the instantaneous capacity demands. This way, the excessive
system capacity can be used for other users and applications.

Fig. 24: Statistical Multiplexing

31
Chapter 4. Description of WiBAS Key Functions

Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation

Introduction Within a WiBAS network, each served Terminal Station is guaranteed a


minimum bandwidth, while peak capacity (per sector) has been calculated
during the radio network planning.

Description Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) efficiently addresses the peak demands
that occur randomly in the WiBAS network (see Fig. 25). Excessive
bandwidth demands (Fig. 25-A1) are served in real time by an available
capacity pool (Fig. 25-B2). This pool is shared among those Terminal Stations
that really need bandwidth beyond their predefined guaranteed value.
The DBA mechanism of WiBAS is especially important in mobile 3G/4G
networks where traffic demands may greatly vary over time.

QoS Mechanism, Continued

Classifier Classifies the inbound packets (coming from WiBAS Ethernet interfaces) in
distinct Classes of Service (CoS) per:
• Interface - all the Ethernet packets coming from the port.
• Interface and VLAN id - incoming port and the outer VLAN id (or inner
VLAN id if frame is double-tagged).
• Interface and P-Bits - incoming port and IEEE 802.1p VLAN header P-bits.
• Interface, VLAN id and P-Bits - incoming port and combination of VLAN id
and P-Bits values.
• Interface and DSCP - incoming port and the differentiated services Code
Point (DSCP) value.
• Interface and IPv6 TC - incoming port and the IPV6 packet traffic class 8-bit
field.
• Interface and MPLS EXP - incoming port and the MPLS packet header EXP
bits.

Policer Compares the measured information rate with the predefined rate limits –
typically CIR / EIR and CBS / EBS – and applies traffic policing with drop
option (two-rate, three-color marking) for post- processing by the air scheduler.
Not-conforming frames are either discarded or tagged (marked).

Bridge • MAC anti-spoofing:


security
Examines the source MAC addresses of all packets coming from outside the
WiBAS network and passing through the local Ethernet ports. Packets having
the same MAC address but originating from different physical ports will be
dropped.
• MAC learning control:
The number of MAC addresses of the forwarding table can be limited for
security purposes. In particular, two options are available:
• MAC learning enabled – no restriction on the number of MAC addresses
learnt from one port; the limit in this case is 4,000 MAC addresses.
• MAC learning disabled – the number of MAC addresses in one port is
configured to any value from 1 to 1,024.

Switch A powerful non-blocking Layer 2 switch fabric performs switching of packets


among the WiBAS local Ethernet ports and either:
• local traffic, in case of WiBAS WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminal Station, or the
• traffic from all the assigned WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminal Stations (T1...Tn,
n=1 to 28), in case of WiBAS OSDR-HUB.

Static Establishes ASFs (up to 15 ASFs for WiBAS OSDR-TS, up to 200 ASFs for
Forwarder WiBAS OSDR-HUB), providing superior flexibility and enabling full control
over the air traffic. Each ASF is assigned to an air CoS and conforms to
specific traffic descriptors.

Queue Accepts an Air Service Flow (ASF) from the Static Forwarder and forwards
Scheduler packets to eight buffers, each supporting a different priority Ethernet CoS.
The buffers’ packet drop threshold is user-programmable.
Queue scheduler applies strict or hybrid (4 x strict plus 4 x WRR) priority
scheduling before the ASF is fed to the Air Scheduler, while maintaining
fairness to prevent low-priority traffic from starving.

WiBAS™ OSDR
System Description - Edition 2.0

QoS Mechanism, Continued

Air Scheduler The Air Scheduler in the WiBAS OSDR-HUB keeps track of the inbound
ASF queues from each WiBAS WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminal and
dynamically controls the air resources to be shared among the served
WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminals.
Four classes of air service are used to schedule traffic on each OSDR-TS –
OSDR-HUB air connection. The Air Scheduler in the WiBAS OSDR-HUB is
responsible to allocate air bandwidth in both the uplink (Terminals >
OSDR-HUB) and downlink (OSDR-HUB > Terminals) directions.

Air Scheduling Process:


1. WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminals send requests for packet transmission
toward the WiBAS OSDR-HUB and provide information on the
status of all associated ASFs.
2. WiBAS OSDR-HUB receives the requests from all the WiBAS
OSDR-TS Terminals, performs processing and effectively allocates
the air resources taking into account:
• The physical modulation of each air connection.
• The traffic descriptors (MRR, MSR) of each ASF.
3. WiBAS OSDR-HUB informs the corresponding WiBAS OSDR-TS
Terminals on the granting of access and transmission of data at
specific time slots.
4. In case of congestions, weighting is applied to allocate air resources
for excessive data traffic.

Air Service Classes:


Air Service Class Characteristics & Connection Traffic Descriptors
Unsolicited Grand Non-variable guaranteed bandwidth. MRR (bit/s)
Service (UGS) connection conformance.
real-time Variable Variable user traffic with strict delay constraints.
Rate (rtVR) MRR / MSR (bit/s), max. latency (ms) connection
conformance. Four sub-classes.
non real-time Variable Variable user traffic without delay constraints.
Rate (nrtVR) MRR / MSR (bit/s), max. latency (ms) connection
conformance. Four sub-classes.
Best Effort (BE) Without delay and bandwidth guarantee. MRR /
MSR (bit/s) connection conformance.
Four sub-classes.

QoS Mechanism, Continued

Air Scheduler, Assuring QoS of Multiple Services:


continued
WiBAS can establish per-VLAN ASFs (having specific traffic descriptors), or
can establish ASFs on different criteria.
The example in schematic below assumes that each WiBAS service is
carried over a different VLAN. The five VLANs (1 to 5) are associated with
five ASFs configured for BE CoS.
The backhaul network in this example is composed of:
• 1 x WiBAS OSDR-HUB, providing overlay PtMP coverage.
• 2 x WiBAS OSDR-TS units.
For each ASF, specific MRR and MSR rates are assigned. MRR refers to the
minimum committed rate for the specific ASF and can be set as prescribed by
traffic engineering.
In case the traffic rate (over an ASF) falls below the granted MRR, then the
air scheduler can assign these non-utilized air resources to other ASFs
requesting extra bandwidth. In any case, the transmitted rate cannot exceed
the MSR value.
Finally, the L2 switch in the OSDR is responsible to forward packets based
on the destination MAC addresses.

Provisioning of Carrier Ethernet Services

Introduction WiBAS™ extends standards-based Carrier Ethernet services to last-mile


connections in multi-vendor / multi-technology networks.
Being MEF-9 and MEF-14 compliant, WiBAS ™ is capable to deliver the
following Carrier Ethernet services:
• Ethernet private line (E-Line)
• Ethernet tree (E-Tree)
• Ethernet LAN (E-LAN)
• Virtual versions of the aforementioned E-Line / E-Tree / E-LAN services

E-Lines E-Line services provide point-to-point Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVCs)


(EPL / EVPL) between pairs of dedicated User-Network Interfaces (UNIs).
Typical applications include:
• Ethernet private lines
• Ethernet Virtual private lines
• Ethernet Internet access
Both EPL and EVPL services offer low frame delay, frame delay variation
and frame loss ratio. The differences between them are summarized below:
Characteristic EPL Service EVPL Service
Transparency High degree of transparency. Lower transparency.
Service frame’s header and Service frame’s
payload are identical at both the header may be
source and destination UNIs. different at the
destination UNI.
Service No service multiplexing at each Multiple EVCs or
Multiplexing UNI (physical interface). Ethernet services can
All service frames at the UNI be multiplexed per
are mapped to a single EVC. UNI.
Bundling All-to-one. C-VLAN ID / EVC
map.

E-LAN / E-LAN service provides multi-point to multi-point EVCs between two or more
E-Virtual UNIs. When there are only two UNIs, more UNIs can be added to the same
Private LAN EVC (if required). This capability distinguishes E-LAN from the point-to-point
Services service type.
Typical applications include:
• Multi-point Layer 2 VPNs
• Transparent LAN service
• Foundation for IPTV and multicast networks

Security Features

Introduction WiBAS advanced inherent features enable provisioning of efficient solutions


to address contemporary communication needs of the Corporate users. The
system employs advanced QoS mechanisms that assure service delivery and
preserve the quality of voice and broadband data applications. The
requirements for communication integrity and security, which is essential for
critical applications, are fulfilled by the “closed” system architecture.

Security The WiBAS system effectively uses a central Hub station that establishes
mechanism direct links with each individual WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminal Station.
The communication between WiBAS OSDR-HUB and WiBAS OSDR-TS
Terminal Stations is controlled by a highly advanced scheduler that resides in
the WiBAS OSDR-HUB.
During the initial ranging phase each individual WiBAS OSDR-TS Terminal
Station is registered to the WiBAS OSDR-HUB with each unique credentials
that are entered at the WiBAS OSDR-HUB by the operator. Therefore, the
WiBAS OSDR-HUB fully controls the communication towards the WiBAS
OSDR-TS Terminal Stations and no Terminal Station can register to the central
Hub autonomously.
The communication between the WiBAS OSDR-HUB and WiBAS
OSDR-TS Terminal Stations is not only based on proprietary, “closed” and
highly advanced mechanism but it is also of dynamic nature. Effectively
allocation of system resources (i.e. transmission time slots) and operation
mode (i.e modulation scheme) is dynamically adapting to bandwidth demand
and transmission conditions. Thus the transmission mechanism is not fixed
and predefined. Within this context, an eavesdropper could not possibly
decrypt the information transmitted. Moreover, due to WiBAS proprietary
nature no standard equipment analyzing the air frame exists in the market.
Also attempting to impersonate MAC address is not possible since this would
require first of all analysing the transmitted air frame. Even in this case, MAC
anti-spoofing mechanism exists that uniquely bind the MAC address to specific
air connections.

Ethernet OAM (Operation, Administration & Maintenance)

Introduction WiBAS™ supports carrier-grade Ethernet OAM features for maintaining


service availability and end-to-end quality.

Connectivity The IEEE 802.1ag standard for Connectivity Fault Management (CFM)
Fault enables carriers to monitor and manage potential service disruptions:
Management
(IEEE 802.1ag) • Fault detection, through Continuity Check Messages (CCMs), for
detecting service interruptions.
• Fault verification, through Loopback Messages (LBMs) and Loopback
Reply (LBR).
• Fault isolation, through Link Trace Messages (LTMs) and Link Trace
Reply (LTR), for determining a service’s network path and for isolating the
location of a fault without making a site visit.
• Fault notification (ITU-Y.1731), through Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) for
alerting the operator to a fault before it is reported by customers.

Service The ITU-T Y.1731 standard provides Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that
Performance enable carriers to establish SLAs for performance-guaranteed services in
Monitoring order to meet specific customer requirements. These KPIs include:
(ITU-T Y.1731)
• Frame loss ratio, indicating the percentage of traffic that has been lost.
• Frame delay (latency), indicating the delay introduced during the
transportation of traffic, one-way and roundtrip.
• Frame delay variation, indicating the jitter introduced during the
transportation of traffic.

Chapter 4. Description of WiBAS Key Functions

Packet Optimization

Introduction Fig. 31 shows the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet frame structure (for simplicity
purposes, the S-VLAN and C-VLAN tags are not shown).
The gross rate of the Ethernet traffic passing through an Ethernet port is
referred to as L1 throughput (or line rate) and can be up to 1000 Mbit/s for a
GbE interface.
Similarly, the gross rate of the Ethernet service frame is referred to as L2
throughput (or information rate).
The size of the Ethernet payload – 46 to 1500 bytes – plays a key role in
determining the actual throughputs than can be achieved. With large
packets, overhead information is comparatively minimized and the
information rate approximates the radio net throughput, i.e. the rate of the
packets transferred over the air interface.

Fig. 31: IEEE 802.3 Ethernet frame

IFG and PRE WiBAS™ can apply suppression of the IFG and PRE+SFD overhead
suppression information (practically eliminating the need to transmit these 20 bytes) for
its transportation over the air interface. This means that the IFG and
PRE+SFD information is not transmitted over the air and it is regenerated at
the Rx side.

Header The goal of the Header Suppression (HC) is to compress the header by
Compression(1) reusing the pair of Destination MAC Address (DA) and Source MAC
Address(SA) from already know links.
The SA and DA information fields (6+6=12 bytes) are encoded with a single
byte. Effectively, the transmitter does send SA / DA information of every
packet. Although the single byte transmitted is decoded at the Rx side, the
SA / DA fields of the original frame are re-created.
In this way, the 32 bytes of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet frame (IFG / PRE+SFD and
SA / DA addresses) are compressed to a single byte.

System Description - Edition 2.0

4.3. Network Synchronization

Synchronization Frequency and/or phase synchronization are essential features for the various
support generations of mobile access systems.
Synchronization carried through a packet-based network is becoming a highly-
desirable feature. Packet synchronization needs to be supported by all network
nodes, from the source down to the synchronized device.
WiBAS™ supports various packet-based clock transfer protocols and methods,
which provide end-to-end and network-wide synchronization. These include:
• Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE)
• IEEE 1588v2 TC
SyncE and IEEE 1588v2 are implemented concurrently on WiBAS™
OSDR-HUB units, offering frequency, phase and time synchronization with
improved stability.
In case of link (or network) outage, WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB will synchronize all
internal processes using its own high-accuracy (4.6 ppm) clock (Holdover
mode).

Synchronous WiBAS™ implements SyncE (license-based) according to ITU-T G.8261,


Ethernet ITU-T G.8262 and G.8264 standards, which define the synchronization
(SyncE) aspects in packet networks and the timing characteristics of the:
• Synchronous Ethernet Equipment slave Clock (EEC)
• Ethernet Synchronization Messaging Channel (ESMC)
Synchronous Ethernet works on the physical layer and provides frequency
synchronization (with support of up to 10 hops).
One of the available Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (accommodated by the
WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB) can be designated as the port to receive
synchronization or to distribute the reference clock.
The performance is independent of the network loading, whilst the utilization of
SyncE requires that each node in the packet network supports this method to
be able to recover the clock.

IEEE 1588v2 The Precision Time Protocol – PTP version 2, which is the core of IEEE
1588v2 (IEEE 1588-2008) standard, is a protocol for synchronizing clocks
throughout an Ethernet network, in terms of frequency, phase and time. Clock
distribution is based on a hierarchical Master – Slave architecture and can
provide sub-μs accuracy in phase synchronization.
WiBAS™ implements IEEE 1588v2 Transparent Clock (TC) end-to-end (1).
According to TC functionality, a field in the IEEE 1588v2 packet is time-
stamped with a delay value to compensate for time spent traversing the link
equipment. The packet delay field value is added to the IEEE 1588v2 packet
by hardware. This scheme improves clock distribution accuracy by
compensating for packet delay variability across the network.

IEEE 1588v2, Effectively, the timestamps of the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) messages
continued are corrected for the time spent traversing the network, from the Ethernet port
of the WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB to the Ethernet ports of the WiBAS™ OSDR-TS
Terminal Stations at the other end.
Implementing the 1588 TC scheme, the WiBAS™ solution efficiently supports
multiple synchronization sources, which are commonly required in a multi-
carrier backhaul network.

4.4. OSDR-HUB Protection

Introduction In WiBAS™ networks, OSDR-HUB protection is implemented by means of


hardware redundancy. Two WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB systems (active / standby)
can be configured in 1+1 cold standby mode to provide automatic recovery in
case of failure of one of the two systems.

Prerequisites The two WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB systems, participating in the 1+1 hub scenario,
must be of similar type and also interconnected with an Ethernet cable.
This cable is connected to the respective port available in both systems,
realizing a protection cluster with two nodes. It also allows “heartbeat”
communication between the two systems regarding their current operational
status and role.

Feature When the active WiBAS™ OSDR HUB system fails, the standby system takes
description over and re-ranges the assigned WiBAS™ OSDR-TS Terminal Stations. At the
same time, the now-active (ex-standby) system is responsible to forward L2
traffic toward the network.
The standby system continues to receive only, with its radio transmitter section
being muted.
Notice that WiBAS™ OSDR-HUB ports of Ethernet Switch should be connected
on the same bridge.

5. WiBAS Management

Overview

Summary A rich variety of options for managing WiBAS stations and networks exist,
covering the needs of any service provider. These options fit the management
needs of several network sizes ranging from a couple of links to thousand of
links.
Using the available management solutions (uni|MS) or the WiBAS
embedded management interfaces, service providers can effectively manage
WiBAS stations and networks, covering health monitoring, inventory
monitoring, performance monitoring, security, auditing, provisioning and
configuration.

Management Multiple management protocols and interfaces are implemented in WiBAS


interfaces units to enable effective and efficient monitoring, configuration and
provisioning from any network management platform.
Intracom Telecom offers its own management solution, uni|MS, which is

Embedded Network Management Interfaces & Protocols

Introduction The WiBAS embedded network management interfaces and protocols


include:
• HTTP / HTTPs (Node Manager)
• Command Line Interface (CLI)
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
• SYSLOG
• TACACS+

HTTP / HTTPs WiBAS stations can be managed through a graphical user interface that is
(Node Manager) accessible using a Web browser.
A full Local Craft Terminal (LCT) application is embedded in the devices and
is accessible through HTTP / HTTPs.
HTTP / HTTPs is recommended for local or remote monitoring and
configuration of WiBAS stations.

CLI WiBAS stations can be managed with a well-structured and mature Command
Line Interface (CLI).
WiBAS CLI is well-documented and provides synthetic transactions that
simplify use for non-experts.
CLI is recommended for local or remote configuration and provisioning of
WiBAS stations, and can be applied over Telnet or even SSH to secure
management communication.

SNMP WiBAS stations can be monitored remotely through Simple Network


Management Protocol (SNMP).
Using SNMP protocol, an NMS system can directly communicate with the
WiBAS embedded SNMP agents to retrieve fault and performance data.
WiBAS elements support SNMPv2c.
WiBAS SNMP agents are recommended for Network Operation Centers
(NOCs) using 3rd party OpenSource NMS systems to carry out fault and
performance monitoring of WiBAS elements.

SYSLOG WiBAS events can be monitored remotely through SYSLOG.


In such cases, the service provider needs to setup a SYSLOG server to
receive events in real time from the managed devices. Any SYSLOG server
implementation can be used, including open-source options.
SYSLOG is recommended for Network Operation Centers (NOCs)
implementing centralized log management of their entire infrastructure.

TACACS TACACS is a remote authentication protocol that is used to communicate


with an authentication server, commonly used for network security. TACACS
allows a remote access server to communicate with an authentication server
in order to determine if the user has access to the WiBAS network.

7. Radio & Modem Performance

WiBAS is designed in accordance to ETSI EN 302 326 specifications.


To attain the highest possible net spectrum efficiency, WiBAS utilizes minimum
overhead for transporting all types of traffic.
WiBAS also employs adaptive PHY modes to guarantee optimal robustness vs
performance balance, together with maximum capacity.
The PHY mode that will be used depends on the environmental conditions, the
interference and the RF channel, which is different for each subscriber/ frame.
Moving from the most robust PHY mode (4-QAM 1/2) toward less robust PHY
modes (e.g. 1024-QAM 5/6), the system switches from the highest robustness
(required at poorest RF conditions) to higher efficiency (required at good RF
conditions), which results in increased bandwidth.
This chapter provides the radio and modem performance of WiBAS (based on
OSDR-HUB Base Station). The chapter includes the following topics:
• Tx Power
• System Gains
• Sector Throughputs
• Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
• Sensitivity
• Sector Ranges

Tx Power

Introduction WiBAS is designed in accordance to ETSI EN 302 326 specifications.


Regarding Transmit (Tx) Power, static Tx power control is applied in the
WiBAS Downlink (DL) direction (i.e. from OSDR-HUB to OSDR-TS Terminal
Stations). The maximum Tx power values for the WiBAS are supported for
all modulation schemes (see table below).
In the Uplink (UL) direction (i.e. OSDR-TS Terminal Stations to OSDR-HUB),
the Tx power control at the Terminal Stations is realized using Automatic
Transmitting Power Control (ATPC).
