Data Application

9400AWY enable “Ethernet user data” transport with an optional dedicated plug-in board .

The typical application for “Ethernet user data” is the connection of two user LANs by means of two external routers and a PDH radio link (see below).

The main characteristics/constraints are: • Ethernet transport over PDH is considered only for the access part

of the network and the only implemented connection is point-to-point;

• flexible Ethernet throughput. • mixed mode: data traffic (Ethernet) can be mixed with voice traffic

(up to 8xE1or 8xDS1); • interface type 10BaseT - 100 BaseT with autonegotiation. • no MAC address filtering: all what is received from the line is

transmitted. Local traffic can be rerouted only by an external switch/router.

• bandwidth compression: a mechanism of bandwidth compression has to be implemented, because the bandwidth of a PDH link is in general less than the max bandwidth of the Ethernet interfaces.

3.2 System characteristics

3.2.1 Unprotected configuration

An Alcatel 9400 AWY unprotected (1+0) radio terminal is made up with the following elements:

• An Outdoor Unit (ODU) incorporating the complete RF

transceiver (modem, RF units, branching filter) and an integrated or separated antenna.

The ODU is capacity independent • A Main Indoor Unit (IDU) incorporating the base-band

processing and offering tributaries interfaces as well as service channel and supervision. The IDU is frequency independent (same unit from 7 up to 38GHz)

Different IDU configurations are available from factory

An 8 E1/DS1 hardware maximum configuration which anyway could be upgraded later by the means of the dedicated board to 16 E1/DS1 or E3/DS3 Or Ethernet 2x 10/100 BaseT configuration (with also the appropriate software key see §3.5).

A 16 E1/DS1 hardware configuration

An E3/DS3 hardware configuration

An Ethernet 2X 10/100 baseT allowing to mix with up to 8E1/DS1 physical input

All those configurations could evaluate to protected configuration by the simple addition of the missing hardware ( see § 3.2.2 )

• a single coaxial cable available with lengths up to 300 m.

3 2.2 Protected con igurations . f

Protected configurations are also available :

These configurations allow to protect the most critical transmission paths or permit to ensure better availability on difficult link offering radio counter measures. , The following implementations are available:

The (1+1) configurations include a multiplex protection(1) as standard feature and an automatic errorless Rx switching . If the link is protected, main traffic and auxiliary channels are automatically protected. (1) except the Ethernet interface .

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 17

Page 18: AWY 9400 Manual

3.3 Equipment flexibility

Software configurable frequency:

The in-field agility of the 9400 AWY is provided at least on a quarter frequency plan (synthesizer step 250 kHz). Only up to four different ODUs are needed to cover the full frequency band. The synthesized, software controlled, RF local oscillator allows an easy frequency setting. Software configurable capacity:

The Alcatel 9400 AWY system provides unique capacity agility features, controlled by software up to a maximum bit rate. If the Hardware (and the software key contained on the flash card ) permit it the system capacity can be configured by software , from 2xE1 or 4xDS1 up to the maximum authorized capacity (16xE1/DS1 or E3/DS3 ) Moreover, capacity upgrade can be easily made changing flash memory associated with software license and/or upgrading the hardware adding the dedicated plug in board (9 to 16E1/DS1, E3/DS3 or Ethernet ) . Transmit power control:

In certain cases, the output power of the equipment has to be decreased, to reduce interferences towards other links in case of very short hops. This could be done for once when you install the microwave link from the craft terminal parameters settings (Remote Transmitter Power Control ), or can be programmed to be done dynamically by the system to obtain a wanted received level even in case of changes on the propagation conditions ( Automatic Transmit Power Control ). Those features improve the flexibility of the network design and increase the frequency re-use.

The 9400 AWY provide in all frequency bands and modulation :

• a locally software transmit power control RTPC dynamic 30dB

• an automatic transmit power control ATPC dynamic 20dB

Link Identity Coding:

The amount of microwave links, especially in urban areas puts the problem of possible interferences during installation and turn-on phase.

The digital frame incorporates Link Identity coding capabilities to prevent the capture of an unwanted signal.

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 18

Page 19: AWY 9400 Manual

3.4 Easiness of installation

The Alcatel 9400 AWY systems have been designed to allow quick installation and turn-on. Compact Outdoor Unit:

The Outdoor unit (ODU) is housed in a very compact and robust weatherproof (IP 67) container; it is designed to be compatible with hot and very sunny climatic zones. The Outdoor Unit (1 or 2 depending on the configuration 1+0 or 1+1) can be rapidly installed on standard poles with an appropriate fastening system. 9400 AWY family uses a very compact pole mounting equipped with an accurate alignment system - rough and fine “elevation” and “bearing” tuning - to permit easy pointing with the integrated antenna. This pole mounting is the same for 1+0 or 1+1 configurations from 11 to 38GHz .

The 9400 AWY outdoor unit can be used with an integrated antenna 300 or 600 mm diameter or separate antennas if a larger diameter is needed.

The ODU is fixed by means of quick latches. This system allows to change the ODU without altering the antenna alignment

The alignment of the antenna can be easily performed with the use of a dedicated service kit. This kit , when connected to the ODU, is able to provide the receive signal level, and the connection to the other end of the link through a telephone service channel (when applicable).

Different IDU mechanical versions:

The IDU dimensions are 1U for the 1+0 configuration and 2 times 1U for 1+1 high for all capacities. This allow easy installation in standard 19” or ETSI/N3 racks and saves a lot of space where there are tight constraints like shelters

The IDU can also be installed as a desktop unit. The design of the 1+1 configuration permit the replacement of a faulty Unit (Main IDU or extension IDU ) without any disconnection of tributaries so no interruption of the traffic.

Single coaxial cable:

A single coaxial cable of up to 300 m achieves the connection between the ODU and the IDU, so that a high flexibility is left for locating the radio and antenna.

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 19

Page 20: AWY 9400 Manual

Simple commissioning:

All the standard Site Acceptance Tests can be done with a single PC to commission the link, making extensive use of built-in supervision features : • Continuous performance check and alarm status overview • numerous base-band loop-back facilities • Built-in PRBS generator and error counters

The transmit side incorporates a built-in PRBS (Pseudo Random Bit Sequence) generator able to insert a standard test signal for the link Bit Error Rate measurements, in order to facilitate initial turn-on. This is by means of craft terminal software .

3.5 Equipment Software features

The Alcatel 9400 AWY terminal provides:

• interface RS232C to a PC (Craft Terminal), which enables alarm monitoring, quality measurement, as well configuration of the equipment

• one interface to a higher NMS level :

− Ethernet 10/100 base T

− hierarchical management structure based on the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which can manage the 9400 AWY equipment

• embedded data communication channel for management information 64kbit/s with RS422/G703 interface

3.6 Reliable design The high reliability of the indoor and outdoor equipment is obtained through the use of advanced technologies, highly qualified components and severe test procedures in factory. The high value of the MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) limits the maintenance to routine visits. The equipment operational MTBF traffic affecting reaches more than 30 years.

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 21

Page 22: AWY 9400 Manual

Digital Cable Interface

The cable interface between IDU and ODU allows to carry over the coaxial cable:

• the transmit and receive data streams (and interface these streams to the modem on ODU side),

• the control signals and service channel. • the DC power supply from the IDU to the ODU

Modem and IF unit

The modem performs the 4 QAM or 16QAM modulation and demodulation functions, with embedded digital filtering and equalization. It also incorporates the analog to digital and digital to analog conversions.

The IF part incorporates the quadrature modulator (respectively the quadrature demodulator) for the up-conversion (respectively down-conversion) to a transmit IF (respectively from a receive IF). It performs base-band filtering and AGC. IF frequencies are variable in order to cope with all frequency spacing . RF Local Oscillator (LO)

There is one single Local Oscillator both for transmit and receive RF units.

It is electronically tuned, by software, to the requested frequency, providing frequency agility over a quarter of frequency plan.

Front End • RF transmitter (Tx)

This module up-converts and amplifies the RF signal and sends it to the duplexer. The output power is regulated with a feedback loop. The module incorporates a mute function in case of transmitter failure. • RF Receiver (Rx)

The receiver performs low noise amplification of the received RF signal and down-converts it by mixing with the LO in a mixer. It feeds the IF resulting signal to the IF module.

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 22

Page 23: AWY 9400 Manual

Branching

The duplexer separates the transmit and receive signals at the RF antenna port. Power supply

The power supply provides DC/DC conversion to generate the secondary voltages from the remote supply voltage. It interfaces with all active modules of the transceiver.

Monitoring

This feature provides monitoring of Outdoor Unit configuration and alarms.

The ODU of the Alcatel 9400 AWY features are :

• Transmit Power Control : a software controlled attenuation of up to 30 dB in static power control or 20dB in ATPC can be applied.

• RF local loop The ODU is provided with an RF local loop, permanently installed within the container. This function allows to loop back the RF signal from the transmitter to the receiver of the same transceiver after frequency conversion, in order to test the installed local terminal without using the antenna or the remote-end terminal.

4.2 ODU configurations ODU can operate with :

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 23

Page 24: AWY 9400 Manual

• integrated antenna of 30cm or 60cm

• separated antenna if larger diameters are necessary. In this case, the antenna is interconnected by the means of an adaptor (pole mounting for external antenna ) and a flextwist directly to the ODU, or the coupler, depending on used configuration.

For the outdoor part, different 1+1 configuration can be realized:

− HSB with 2 antennas in the same polarization: this configuration could be use for Space Diversity counter measure ( in this case the antennas separation should be higher than 10 wave lengths ) or as simple HSB (with the two antennas collocated ) as it improves the link budget avoiding coupler losses on the stand-by path (useful when integrated antennas are needed).

− HSB with a 10 dB coupler and 1 antenna : this configuration optimizes the infrastructure using only one antenna, a 10dB coupling has been chosen to minimize the losses on the normal path.

− HSB configuration is also available with a 3dB coupler and 1 antenna

− With 2 antennas with different polarization : in this case the two ODU will transmit at the same frequency ( in 4 QAM only ) in the same time (identical to frequency diversity) and will permit an hitless switching in both direction in case of failure

− with 2 external antennas adaptors and 1 dual polarized antenna : to permit the same behavior than in the previous chapter when the gain of integrated antennas are not sufficient or to optimize the number of antennas on a pole.

5.2 Functional details about data and PDH mux/demux

Two functions play an essential role in the Ethernet data transport: the standard PDH mux/demux and the data encapsulation/buffering.

The two functions have been decoupled as much as possible:

• the standard PDH mux/demux offers a transport capability to the data traffic

• the data encapsulation/buffering uses the transport capability offered by the mux, but doesn’t know what is the current mux type/frame.

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 27

Page 28: AWY 9400 Manual

The nxE1/DS1 Framing block is implemented into the Mux/demux. The Ethernet Data Encapsulation block is implemented into the Data plug-in.

The connection between the two functions is simply realized with three wires:

• Data valid: Mux/dem tells to Ethernet Data when it is possible to insert Ethernet data into the PDH frame

• Frame bit CLK: the clock for the transmission of Ethernet bits; • Data: Ethernet bits to be inserted into the PDH frame.

The design of the PDH Mux is completely decoupled from the encapsulation strategy of the Ethernet Data; It is easily possible to implement any combination of voice (E1, DS1) and data with the limitation that we have only Height physical inputs for E1/DS1.

5 2.1 Bandwidth . compression

A compression mechanism has to be foreseen, because -with a Fast Ethernet interface- the PDH transport capability is always less than the maximum input bit rate Note also that with a 10BaseT input interface the PDH transport capability can be sometimes larger and sometimes smaller than the maximum input bit rate. Given a gross bit rate at the output of the Mux, several possible combination of voice and data(2x10/100Base T) are available. In the following drawing a few examples of band allocation to data transmission with compression technique is shown.

6 Alcatel 9400 AWY System Configurations

The 9400AWY family offers unprotected (1+0) and protected (1+1) configurations.

Two types of problem can impact the availability of a radio link : equipment failures and propagation problems.

1+1 protected configurations are used to increase the availability of the link compared to 1+0 unprotected configuration, by adding redundant functions to the equipment:

• To secure the link in case of temporary (transient alarm) or definitive (equipment failure) malfunctioning,

• To improve the performances of the equipment towards propagation problem (in some outdoor units configurations only).

Various configurations are available with the following applications:

7 Supervisory system

The Alcatel 9400 Terminal features very advanced supervisory functions which are optimized for operation and maintenance, offering solutions from very small to very large networks in an evolutionary path :

• for local management of a single link (local and remote equipment), a F interface to a craft terminal (ECT) is provided, allowing diagnostic and configuration of the network elements through a user friendly man-machine interface (Windows™ environment),

• for small to medium sized networks, from isolated radio hops up to networks composed of maximum 128 radio equipment, based on RECT

• for more complex networks composed of numerous PDH and SDH radio links integrated in a transport network a global solution is proposed, operating with one or more Operation Systems on workstations (cf. 1353NM documentation), with network management capabilities in a various field of fault locations, performance measurements, configuration and security management.

7.1 Network management

protocols The network management protocol offered is :

3DB 06649 AAAA TQZZA 33

Page 34: AWY 9400 Manual

SNMP protocol:

ALCATEL proposes a concept of NMS to manage the 9400 AWY Indoor-Outdoor equipment, using a hierarchical management structure (Management Information Base MIB) based on the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

The ALCATEL 9400 AWY SNMP Terminals exhibit the main following advantages :

• Open protocol : It provides a standardized open protocol ; its management interface allowing management by other OS vendors or integration in Alcatel TMN through a TCP-IP data communication network.

• Re-routing capability : It benefits of the TCP-IP re-routing capability even in the standalone management solution. This means that the Supervision Bus can be looped or meshed (and it is recommended to do so when it is possible) via NMS interfaces, using a dedicated Service Channel of the Transmission Equipment or external leased lines (synchronous RS485/V11 at 64 Kbit/s) or using a time slot of E1/DS1tributary .

The local craft terminal (ECT) allows to access to different domains given hereafter :

• Configuration • Diagnosis • Equipment • External points • Line interface • Performance • Radio • Protection Schemes • Loop back • Software Download

These domains accessibility depends on the operator’s profiles :

• Administrator /Constructor : Full • Operator : Read only or full • Viewer : Read only

To facilitate the system configuration to the operator , a Wizard tool is used ; this tool could be activated from the menu bar .

Some screens related to different domains are given hereafter :

networks : RECT

For networks up to 128 Network Elements (called a cluster), a stand-alone solution based on RECT functionality is proposed. It allows to access the remote NE display the global synthesis view as well as the NE view of each equipment of the cluster (as described here-above).

All applications available in the local management chapter are available for each Network Element of the Cluster

The view given hereafter indicates that : − it is possible to have a Map composed up to 128NE − this view is available for each NE , each submap and each

Map − for each selected NE (on the left) there is the indication on the

right of how many alarm are active (2 Major, 2 Minor, 1 Warning); the status of the single NE (Major alarm) is propagated to the superior Submap till to Map.

− It is possible to execute the “Log in” command to have a further zoom inside the NE

7 2.3 Large mixed network : .

TMN

For large/mixed networks composed of 9400 AWY SNMP terminals, associated with other types of equipment, 2 types of application are proposed :

• The first application is the one allowing the Customer, who wants to have a multi-vendor environment at the Network Element level, to homogenize the NE interface, whoever the equipment provider is.

• The second application is the one where the full NMS is provided by ALCATEL. The 9400 AWY SNMP terminals will be managed by the ALCATEL Operation System 1353NM together with other type of NE’s (SDH radios, ADM ) even if they are using different protocols as Q3 . The 1353NM provides real time monitoring and controls of all Network Elements entering in the configuration of the managed network.

The following picture illustrates the two applications proposed for the management of the ALCATEL 9400 AWY/SNMP equipment.
