1 Preparations for Commissioning

1.1 Commissioning Flowchart

The commissioning flowchart for ZXMBW BSS is shown in Figure 1-1.

Figure 1-1 General Commissioning Flow

1.2 Precautions in Commissioning

During commissioning, pay attention to the following:



1. Wear antistatic wrist strip when plugging, unplugging or checking the module.

2. In handling a module, strictly follow the related specifications. Handle the modules

with care and for those modules that are not used at the moment or that need to be

stored, pack them with antistatic bags and keep them in proper places.

3. The commissioning personnel should completely prepare related technical

documents.

4. Do not delete the OMC folder and the files in it; otherwise, the modification of the

installation and future upgrade will be affected. The OMC folder is in the directory

of C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\.

1.3 Check before Commissioning

1.3.1 Tools

Prepare necessary tools, such as network cable, screwdrivers and multimeter. The

special cables that may be used in commissioning are illustrated in Figure 1-2.

Figure 1-2 Tools



1.3.2 Hardware

Check OMC server and clients to see if they work well and meet related requirements.

1.3.3 Software

1. Version and Technical Document

Before going to the site, prepare the software (including OMC server and clients)

required for commissioning, as well as related documents.

2. Site Information

Learn the location, persons in charge of commissioning and their contact

information.

3. Commissioning Planning

Learn the equipment configuration and networking, as well as parameter setting and

planning for the specific network.

4. Software

Check the database system, operating system and antivirus software provided along

with the equipment for genuineness.

1.3.4 Installation Quality

To guarantee commissioning to proceed smoothly and the operating environment of the

equipment to satisfy the requirements, it is required to check the installation quality of

BTS, including cable connection, grounding and power supply. Only after all

installation items are satisfied, the commissioning can proceed.

Check the following against the Installation Acceptance Report:

1. Whether the installation environment meets requirements, in case of indoor

installation, including power supply, air conditioning and lighting

2. Whether The installation environment meet related safety regulations

3. Whether the transmission system is available

4. Whether cables are correctly connected

5. Whether cables are laid in accordance with related specifications

6. Whether cabinets are properly installed



7. Whether antenna feeder system is correctly installed

8. In case of indoor installation, check to see if remainders have been removed from

the equipment room and if the cabinet is clean.

1.3.5 Transmission

Transmission check here refers to hardware check before equipment commissioning.

After equipment is commissioned, it is often required to conduct one transmission test,

ensuring the connection is through.

Use an Ethernet analyzer to test both ends of the transmission system. If the Ethernet

analyzer is not available, ping the two ends of the transmission to see if there is any

delay or jitter.

1.3.6 Pre-power-on Check

The check before power-on should go as follows:

1. Measure the resistance of BBU cabinet;

2. Measure the DC voltage of BBU/RRU, making sure they are within the allowed

range (i.e. -40 V ~ -57 V).

3. Check the connections of power cable and grounding cable of RRU cabinet,

making sure they are correct.

4. Check the power plug of RRU cabinet to see if it is disconnected.

Note:

The internal cables and modules of BBU cabinet have been assembled before the

cabinet leaves the factory. Therefore, it is not required to check them again.

1.3.7 Board Version

Before data configuration, check and confirm the versions to be used are correctly. The

confirmation table is as below.

Figure 2-10 Add Board

Note:

The corresponding relationship between slot number and unit number is: Slots 3, 4, 5, 6,

7, 10, 11, 12 and 13 match units 1-9 respectively.

As the slots for WMPM and WBPM (i.e. WBPMA slots) can be mixed, they are not

fixed. The WMPM boards are preferably configured in slots 3, 4 and 13; while the

WBPM boards are preferably configured in slots 5, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 12.

In adding WBPM boards, the system first adds a group of the boards by default. Then

the WBPM parameter configuration interface pops up, enabling the proper parameters

to be set.

The CSIM is a controlling board, so it must be configured in active/standby mode.

Each of TFM, CSIM and PM boards has two neighboring slots for configuration. This

two neighboring slots must be configured with the same board type; otherwise, the

board cannot be added.

The boards can be added in any order.

Appendix A MPIM IP Planning

A.1 General Principle

Generally, the MPIM IP address should be configured as follows:

X.Y.Z.W

where X and Y have to be obtained from the support personnel at the core network; Z is the serial

number of MPIM board (for left to right); and W is the BTS number.

The mask is 255.255.0.0.

Examples:

Suppose a BTS can be fully configured with three MPIM boards.

For No. 39 BTS, the IP addresses of the three MPIM boards are as follows:

First MPIM: 10.1.1.39

Second MPIM: 10.1.2.39

Third MPIM: 10.1.3.39





A.2 When BTS Quantity Exceeds 255

In the case the number of BTSs exceeds 255, the IP address of MPIM has to be calculated with the

following formulae:

Z = Serial number of MPIM board + 3n

W = Serial number of the BTS - 255*n

where n = [serial number of the BTS / 255]

Appendix B MPXM IP Planning

MPXM IP Configuration Principles:

For the IP address of MPXM, it is required to negotiate with persons at the core network. In any case,

MPXP IP should be unique globally.

The MAC address of MPXM can be configured on the following principle:

The MAC address of MPXM should also be unique globally. Its configuration interface is shown below.

The last two digits of MAC address should be configured according to the site sequence, from 00 to FF. If

the number of BTSs exceeds FF, start from 00 again, and in this case, the system will automatically modify

the values in last third and fourth digits to avoid conflict.

Figure B-1 MPXM IP Configuration

Appendix C BSID Configuration Principle at BTS side

At BTS side, the BSID should be configured on the following principle:

To convert the hexadecimal number “00+XXX(serial number of the BTS)+X(Segment ID)” into a decimal

number.

Examples:

1. For No. 39 BTS, its BSIDs configured at the BTS side should be as follows:

Segment 0: 000390 --> 912

Segment 1: 000391 --> 913

Segment 2: 000392 --> 914

2. For No. 168 BTS, its BSIDs configured at the BTS side should be as follows:

Segment 0: 001680 --> 5760

Segment 1: 001681 --> 5761

Segment 2: 001682 --> 5762
