    WiMAX ASNNetwork

    ZXMBW R9100 belongs to RRU product of ZTE WiMAX BS product(BBU+RRU architecture). Figure 2 illustrates ZXMBW R9100 posi-tion in ASN network.

    FIGURE 2 POSITION IN ASN NETWORK

    Application The application of ZXMBW R9100 in the forward and reverse linkis described below.

    Forward Link: The Connectivity Service Network (CSN) sendsforward signals to Baseband Unit (BBU) via ASN Access Gateway(AGW) for coding and modulation. The BBU sends the modulatedsignals to ZXMBW R9100 via an optical fiber for In-phase/Quadra-ture (IQ) modulation, up-conversion, and power amplification. Af-ter all these processes, ZXMBW R9100 sends the IQ modulatedsignal to Mobile Station (MS) via antenna.

    Reverse Link: ZXMBW R9100 receives air-interface signals fromantenna for down-conversion and IQ demodulation. ZXMBWR9100 sends the IQ demodulated signals to BBU via optical fiberfor decoding and demodulation. After demodulation, the BBUsends the demodulated signals to CSN via AGW.

    Product AppearanceZXMBW R9100 radio unit is made of cast aluminum metal. It isvery small and exquisite.

    WDPA and filtered by WRFE, these signals are transmitted bythe antenna.

    In reverse direction, WRFE receives reverse signals from theantenna and transmits them to WPTR for down-coversion anddigital intermediate frequency processing. Afterwards, thesesignals are transmitted to BBU via the optical interface.

    Power DistributionAfter being led into ZXMBW R9100, external power is convertedby WRPM into +28VDC and +5VDC to supply for WDPA and WPTR.

    Ventilation andHeat-dissipation PrinciplesThe ZXMBW R9100 cabinet is naturally cooled through air cooledfins design on the top and bottom enclosures. Due to the cabinetssmall volume, the heat dissipation facility is maximum.

    MAC Common Part Sub-layer (MAC CPS) and Security Sub-layer.

    Service-Specific Convergence Sub-layer (CS)

    Different protocol interfaces provide different CS specifica-tions.

    The function of Service-Specific Convergence Sub-layer(CS) is to convert/map the external data received by theConvergence Sub-layer Service Access Point (CS SAP) intoMAC Service Data Unit (MAC SDU) and send it to the MACCPS through the MAC Service Access Point (MAC SAP).The other function of this layer is to sort external SDUsassociated with suitable Service Flow Identifier (SFID),Connection Identifier (CID) and Payload Header Suppres-sion (PHS).

    MAC Common Part Sub-layer (MAC CPS)

    MAC CPS does not need to analyze the load information ofthe CS.

    MAC CPS realizes the core function of the MAC layer includ-ing bandwidth distribution, connection establishment andconnection maintenance. It receives data of different CSlayers through MAC SAP and sort them based on differentMAC connection. Quality of Service (QoS) is applied in datatransmission and scheduling of physical layer.

    Data, PHY control information and statistical informationbetween the MAC CPS and PHY is transmitted through PHYSAP.

    Security Sub-layer

    MAC contains an independent security sub-layer to provideauthentication, security key exchange and realize encryp-tion.

    PHY Layer

    The PHY layer of R1 protocol stack contains multiple regu-lations. Each regulation corresponds to a specific frequencyrange and application.

    The PHY layer of R1 protocol stack is based on the modulatingmode of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM).
