Product Description
1 Introduction
1.1 Positioning
This document is released with the eWBB2.0 Solution. The version of the product
corresponds to USN9810 V900R011C01.
eWBB2.0 USN9810 (USN9810 for short in this document) is a unified service node that is
deployed by Huawei and is applied to only evolved packet core (EPC) systems.
The USN9810 can provide the functionalities of the mobility management entity (MME) and
provide integrated user authentication management, which is part of System Architecture
Evolution-home subscriber server (SAE-HSS)'s functionalities. It is operated and maintained
as a single piece of equipment.
1.1.1 3GPP System Evolution

This section describes architectural evolution of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)
EPC system.
Introduction to current networks

Wireless technology has undergone a process of development from the Global System for
Mobile Communications (GSM, 2G) to the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS, 2.5G) and
then to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS, 3G). Currently, mobile
communications have achieved almost universal coverage, with high-speed wireless data
transmission, and easy access to the Internet. Mobile communications are now providing
multimedia services, such as voice, data, and video, enabling people to communicate with
each other anywhere anytime.
The structures of current networks, however, cannot keep pace with the rapid development
and diversified service requirements. The following issues are major limitations to the current
network structure:
 The packet switched (PS) domain only supports non-real-time services and the circuit
switched (CS) domain is responsible for implementing voice services. This scheme
means that carriers must deploy PS and CS domains separately, which complicates
network management and maintenance and increases operational expenditure (OPEX).
 Data routing and forwarding efficiency is low because of multiple network layers.
 Data processing capabilities and radio access technologies (RATs) of mobile stations
(MSs) on current networks have been continuously improving, calling for the
convergence of existing RATs and support for diverse wireless networks.

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
Introduction to the EPC network

To strengthen the network competitiveness, 3GPP has been developing enhanced 3G (E3G).
 The E3G air interface technology is Long Term Evolution (LTE).
 The LTE core network is system architecture evolution (SAE), also called EPC.
3GPP EPC aims at exploring key communication technologies in the next 10 years. The 3GPP
EPC has the following key features:
 All-IP network: The CS domain no longer exists on EPC networks. Voice services will
be provided by PS domains and IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) networks. The all-IP
network structure will improve network efficiency and performance.
 Flat network: The optional co-design of serving gateway (S-GW) and PDN gateway
(P-GW) is supported, providing simplified network deployment and reduced latency.
 Multiple RATs: The 3GPP EPC system can interwork with existing 3GPP systems. It
also supports non-3GPP access, and roaming and handovers between 3GPP systems and
non-3GPP systems.
 High data rate: The peak uplink rate is 50 Mbit/s and the peak downlink rate is 100
Mbit/s.
 Fast deployment: The EPC network can be quickly deployed owing to its simple network
structure, to meet the increasingly diversified service requirements.
 Enhanced real-time services: The latency in service connection setup is reduced.
Figure 1-1 shows the 3GPP system architecture evolution.

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
The EPC network is intended to provide high-speed packet data services. It has a less
complex network structure than current core networks, with the following differences:
 The eNodeB can access the EPC network directly. RNC functions are integrated into the
eNodeB.
 The functions of the network elements (NEs) in the PS domain are adjusted as follows:
− The SGSN signaling plane and forwarding plane are separated. The MME
implements the function of the SGSN signaling plane and the S-GW implements the
function of the SGSN forwarding plane.
− The P-GW functions as the GGSN.
− The optional co-design of S-GW and P-GW is supported.
 The EPC network allows multiple RATs, including non-3GPP access technologies such
as CDMA2000 high rate packet data (HRPD). See Figure 1-2.

The EPC network primarily consists of the following elements:

 User equipment (UE): initiates and receives calls over air interfaces.
 Evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN): implements all functions
related to the radio access.
 EPC: core of the EPC network, which consists of the MME, S-GW, P-GW, and HSS, and
connects the EPC network to external packet data networks (PDNs) such as the Internet.
1.1.3 NE Functions
The functions of the major NEs in the EPC solution are as follows.
E-UTRAN
The E-UTRAN implements all functions related to the radio access to the LTE/EPC network,
including:
 Management and establishment of radio resources
 Header compression and user plane ciphering
 MME selection when no route to an MME can be determined from the information
provided by the UE
 UL bearer level rate enforcement based on UE-aggregate maximum bit rate (AMBR) by
means of uplink scheduling and maximum bit rate (MBR)
 DL bearer level rate enforcement based on UE-AMBR

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
 UL and DL bearer level admission control

 Transport level packet marking in the uplink, for example, setting the DiffServ Code
Point (DSCP), based on the QoS Class Identifier (QCI) of the associated EPS bearer
MME
The MME is responsible for mobility management in the control plane, including
management of the user contexts and mobile status, and assignment of temporary identifiers.
The functions of the MME include:
 Non-access stratum (NAS) signaling
 NAS signaling security
 UE reachability in ECM-IDLE state (including control and execution of paging
retransmission)
 Tracking Area list management
 P-GW and S-GW selection
 MME selection for handovers with MME change
 Authentication
 Bearer management functions including dedicated bearer establishment
 Lawful interception of signaling services
S-GW
The S-GW is the anchor point in the user plane between different access networks. It can
shield interfaces within the 3GPP network towards different access networks. The S-GW is
the gateway that terminates the interface towards E-UTRAN.
The functions of the S-GW include:
 The local mobility anchor point for inter-eNodeB handover
 Assist the eNodeB reordering function during inter-eNodeB handover by sending one or
more end marker packets to the source eNodeB immediately after switching the path
 ECM-IDLE mode downlink packet buffering and initiation of network triggered service
request procedure
 Lawful interception
 Packet routing and forwarding
 Transport level packet marking in the uplink and the downlink (DSCP)
 Accounting on user and QCI granularity for inter-operator charging
P-GW
The P-GW is the anchor point in the user plane between the 3GPP access networks and
non-3GPP access networks. The P-GW is the gateway that terminates the SGi interface
towards the PDN.
The functions of the P-GW include:
 Per-user based packet filtering (for example, deep packet inspection)
 Lawful interception
 UE IP address allocation

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
 Transport level packet marking in the uplink and downlink

 UL and DL service level charging (for example, based on service data flows (SDFs)
defined by the PCRF, or based on deep packet inspection defined by local policy)
 UL and DL service level gating control
 UL and DL service level rate enforcement (for example, by rate policing/shaping per
SDF)
 UL and DL rate enforcement based on APN-AMBR (for example, by rate
policing/shaping per aggregate of traffic of all SDFs of the same UE-APN that are
associated with Non-GBR (guaranteed bit rate) QCIs.
 DL rate enforcement based on the accumulated MBRs of the aggregate of SDFs with the
same GBR QCI for example, by rate policing/shaping)
 DHCPv4 (server and client) functions
 UL and DL bearer binding
 UL bearer binding verification
DNS
There are two types of domain name server (DNS) on the LTE/EPC network:
 DNS located between the P-GW and the PDN
It is used to resolve the domain name of the PDN, equivalent to a common DNS on the
Internet.
 DNS located on the LTE/EPC core network
When the UE requests to access an external network for packet services, the MME
requests the DNS to resolve the domain name according to the access point name (APN).
After the IP address of the corresponding P-GW is obtained, a transmission channel can
be set up between the UE and P-GW.
In mobility management procedures, such as attach and tracking area update (TAU), a
DNS is used for selecting the peer MME.
The DNS can also be deployed on other networks in addition to GPRS/UMTS networks.
1.2 Product Features

The USN9810 is a competitive product developed by Huawei. It features multiple access
standards and multiple logical product types and has many outstanding features or
characteristics.
High Integration
The USN9810 supports a maximum of 20,000 E-UTRAN subscribers attached at the same
time. In the case of full configuration, only one cabinet, one Advanced Telecommunications
Computing Architecture (ATCA) subrack, and one PGP-X8 subrack are required.
The USN9810 uses a high-speed forwarding processor to forward the data on the user plane,
which improves the processing efficiency and integration of the system.

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
Advanced ATCA Platform

ATCA is a hardware standard. It is the name of the architecture standard for the hardware
platform rather than the name of a specific product.
The USN9810 uses the Open Standards Telecom Architecture (OSTA 2.0) platform of Huawei,
which is a server system featuring high density and high performance. The USN9810 can
provide reliable data processing services for carrier-grade telecommunications applications.
The OSTA 2.0 hardware platform stipulates a series of specifications related to boards,
backplanes, and software for the next generation telecom devices. Based on the ATCA
standard architecture and conforming to the network equipment building system (NEBS) and
European telecommunications standards institute (ETSI) standards, the platform has the
following features:
 High rate
The high-speed serial data link and switched structure are used. Therefore, the data
exchange bandwidth intra-subrack can reach 2.5 Tbit/s.
 High reliability
All boards and subboards are hot swappable. In addition, redundancy is implemented on
all key components, such as power supply, fan, management module, and board of each
type. Therefore, the reliability of the system reaches 99.999%.
 High scalability
The USN9810 supports the addition of the interfaces on the ATCA board and cascading
between subracks through the interface board within a subrack.
 Easy to upgrade
Backplane forwarding bandwidth can be smoothly upgraded to 10 GE. The performance
of interface boards is easy to upgrade.
 Efficient management
The standard management bus is used, which can manage any part in the system.
The USN9810 uses the embedded software platform, namely, carrier grade platform (CGP),
which is universally used by the core network products of Huawei. The CGP has the features
such as cross-hardware platform, cross-operating system, and easy maintenance.
 Cross-hardware platform
A uniform interface of the hardware platform is provided, which implements the
operation of upper-layer applications on different hardware platforms. Therefore, the
hardware management is independent of the hardware platform.
 Cross-operating system
Different interfaces of the operating system at the lower layer are shielded. Instead, a
uniform virtual operating system application programming interface (VOS API) is
provided for upper-layer applications.
 Easy maintenance
The implementation mechanisms of the functions such as operation and maintenance,
alarm management, performance measurement, call and signaling tracing, data backup,
board switchover, and online loading are provided for upper-layer applications.
Easy Operation and Maintenance

When the STM-1 or STM-4 optical interface is used for the USN9810 to interconnect with
another device, you need to configure the clock synchronization system. The clock

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
synchronization system of the USN9810 uses the advanced digital phase-locked loop (DPLL)
and reliable software phase-locking technique, and has the following features:
 Clocks of multiple stratums such as stratum 2 (class A and class B) and stratum 3 clocks
are available.
 Stratum 2 and stratum 3 clocks can be flexibly selected for configuration through a
terminal.
 The input primary source signals 2.048 MHz and 2.048 Mbit/s are available.
 Powerful software functions are available. Operators can easily control the reference
source and phase-lock mode of the clock through the LMT. In addition, the LMT
provides complete display, alarm, and OM functions.
The USN9810 has powerful phase-locking capabilities, and therefore is applicable to various
clock transmission situations. When the reference source of the clock works improperly, the
clock synchronization system of the USN9810 can work in free-run mode and maintains clock
synchronization in a certain period.
High Reliability
The USN9810 is highly reliable because of the following features:
 Backup of important data
The USN9810 automatically backs up important data, such as the configuration data,
performance data, and operation logs.
 Operation security management
Different management privileges are assigned to different users. During the user login,
the USN9810 checks the user identity. After the user login, the USN9810 maintains the
complete operation to ensure system security.
 Hardware redundancy design
All critical boards are configured in the 1+1 backup to ensure the high reliability of the
system.
 Fault prevention
The USN9810 provides protection mechanisms to avoid the following system faults:
− System power off
− Misoperation on the system power switch
− Lightning surge on the system power
− High voltage and low voltage
− Short circuit of power supply
− Current surge and high voltage on the power supply and interfaces
 System overload control
In the case of center processing unit (CPU) overload or resource congestion, the
USN9810 adjusts the traffic smoothly to avoid system down.
 Board lock and unlock, process lock and unlock
The board and process lock function stops access to new services as required and
gradually removes the existing services within a certain period. The board and process
unlock function, however, provides access to new services.

2.3 Software Architecture

The USN9810 uses a distributed software structure. The functional modules of the software
are distributed in different types of boards and can be flexibly configured to meet the
requirements of network application.
Based on the software location, the USN9810 software consists of the host software and the
background administration module (BAM) software. Figure 2-5 shows the software structure
of the USN9810.
Figure 2-5 Software structure of the USN9810
2.3.1 Host Software

The host software runs on different boards in the OSTA subrack. It implements functions such
as signaling access and processing, service control, resource management, and charging
information generation. In response to specific commands, the host software also performs the

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
following operations such as data management, device management, alarm management,

performance statistics, and signaling trace on the host in cooperation with the BAM software.
The host software adopts a hierarchical and modular design. From bottom to top, its
components are the operating system, middleware, and various applications.
Operating System
The operating system of the host software is Linux + Vxworks, which is a real-time operating
system.
Middleware
The middleware technology (DOPRA) is applied to the operating system and applications of
the USN9810. Therefore, the upper-layer service software is irrelevant to the lower-layer
operating system.
The middleware facilitates the migration of software functions between different platforms.
Therefore, new and stable product versions are released quickly as the service software is
rarely changed.
Applications
The application is the functional part of the USN9810 software. Loaded with different
applications, boards can provide different functions. The USN9810 applications can be
classified into the following types:
 Signaling bearer software: Implements the access of broadband and narrowband
signaling and processing of the lower-layer protocols.
 Service processing software: Performs signaling processing, session management,
mobility management, and resource management.
 Database software: Manages device data and dynamic subscriber data.
 System support software: Implements system management and device interconnection.
 OM software: Receives the operation commands from the OMU and reports the
command results to the OMU.
2.3.2 BAM Software

The BAM software runs on the OMU, LMT, and Web UI. Along with the host software, it
provides the man-machine interface, which enables the maintenance personnel to implement
the following functions: data management, device management, alarm management,
performance statistics, signaling trace, and CDR management.
The BAM software adopts the client/server model. It consists of the OMU server software,
LMT software, and Web UI software. The OMU server software is installed on the OMU. The
LMT software and Web UI software is installed on the client, namely, a PC.
OMU server software

The OMU server software runs on the OMU board. As a combination of the communication
server and the database server, the OMU server software forwards OM commands from
different workstations to the host and sends responses or command results to the
corresponding workstations. The OMU server software serves as the essential unit of the
operation, administration and maintenance (OAM) software.

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
The OMU server software runs on the Linux operating system and uses the Oracle as the
database platform. It provides functions of the terminal OAM software through multiple
parallel service processes, such as maintenance process, data management process, alarm
process, and performance statistical process. Figure 2-6 shows the relationship between the
OMU server software, operating system, and database platform.
Figure 2-6 Relationships between the OMU server software, operating system, and database
platform
LMT software
The LMT software runs on a workstation. Serving as a client, the LMT software is connected
to the OMU, serving as a server, in client/server mode. The LMT software provides
MML-based graphical terminals. A workstation can be located locally or remotely. For
example, a remote workstation can be connected to the OMU server through a wide area
network (WAN) in dial-up mode.
In addition, you can perform the following maintenance functions on a workstation: data
maintenance, device management, alarm management, performance statistics, call trace, and
signaling trace.
Web UI software
The Web UI software is namely the Web client. You can use the Web browser, such as IE
browser, to perform performance management and traffic statistics. In addition, the Web
browser can also be used during upgrade.

Interface tracing tasks can be performed on interfaces such as the S1-MME and S11 interface
or performed for the protocols such as SCCP and S1AP.
The subscriber tracing traces the messages of the specified IMSI or mobile station
international ISDN number (MSISDN).
The entire-process tracing traces how the packets with specified characteristics are transmitted
between modules and calculate the number of packets of the same characteristics processed in
each module. This is used to locate the problems during packet transmission such as protocol
handling errors, packet loss, delay, packet fault, or sequence disorder.
Operators can save the trace results to handle any queries in the future.

eWBB2.0 USN9810
Product Description
 Minimum accuracy: maximum deviation value of nominal frequency in a long period (20 years)
without external frequency benchmark, that is, the clock is in free running state.
 Maximum frequency deviation: a maximum value of the clock's relative frequency change in a UI
during a consecutive operation process.
 Pull-in range: maximum frequency bandwidth of the input signal locked by a clock.
 MRTIE: The MRTIE extracts the offset that appears in measurements performed with local reference
clocks.
Figure 5-1 Maximum permissible lower limit of input jitter and wander
When the jitter frequency of an input frequency is 1 kHz and the amplitude is more than 1.5
UI, you can infer that the input signal meets the requirements if the system operates normally.
UI refers to the unit of time interval. One UI equals the reciprocal of the frequency of the digital signal.
For example, the UI of the 2.048 Mbit/s signal is 488 ns.
