GSM: DUG 10 + RUG

+
+
    +
  • + +first generation GSM modules for RBS6000 + +
  • +
  • + +closely resembles RBS2000 architecture + +
      +
    • + +DUG 10 like RBS2000 IXU/DXU + +
    • +
    • + +RUG like RBS2000 RRU: TRX + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +interconnection between DUG 10 + RUG is still TDM, not baseband samples! + +
  • +
+
+
+
+

Digital Unit GSM DUG 10

+
+
    +
  • + +up to 12 TRX, grouped in 1..6 logical BTS + +
  • +
  • + +matches most closely IXU or DXU of previous RBS2xxx series + +
  • +
  • + +no baseband processing inside, just protocol logic (LAPDm + RSL + OM2000) + +
  • +
  • + +6x HSIO connector for interface towards RUG + +
  • +
  • + +4x E1/T1 ports exposed on RJ45 connectors + +
  • +
+
+
+
+

Radio Unit GSM DUG

+
+
    +
  • + +GSM only + +
  • +
  • + +2 TRX in hardware + +
      +
    • + +any of them can be GSM, WCDMA or LTE + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +48W per TRX un-combined + +
  • +
  • + +22W per TRX combined (internal hybrid combiner) + +

GSM: DUG 20 + RUS

+
+
    +
  • + +second generation GSM modules for RBS6000 + +
  • +
  • + +more closely resembles the UMTS + LTE modules + +
  • +
  • + +all baseband processing in DUG 20 + +
      +
    • + +digital baseband I/Q samples between DUG 20 and RUS + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +interconnection uses CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) + +
  • +
  • + +connectors typically SFP format. + +
      +
    • + +can be used with SFP optics + fiber (many km long) + +
    • +
    • + +can be used with direct copper SFP interconnect cables (few m) + +
    • +
    +
  • +
+
+
+
+

Digital Unit GSM DUG 20

+
+
    +
  • + +up to 12 TRX, gruoped in 1..6 logical BTS + +
  • +
  • + +includes baseband processing, unlike DUG 10 + +
  • +
  • + +6 SFP slots with CPRI towards Radio Units (RUS) + +
  • +
  • + +4x E1/T1/J1 ports exposed on two RJ45 connectors + +
  • +
+
+
+
+

Radio Unit Mulit-Standard RUS 01

+
+
    +
  • + +GSM WCDMA and LTE + +
  • +
  • + +4 carriers over 20 MHz IBW + +
      +
    • + +any of them can be GSM, WCDMA or LTE + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +up to 1x 80W (one multi-channel PA) + +
      +
    • + +20W without special license key + +
    • +
    • + +up to 80W with license keys + +
    • +
    +

+
+
    +
  • + +RUS 02 has 40 MHz IBW + +
      +
    • + +up to 8 GSM carriers + +
    • +
    • + +up to 4 WCDMA or LTE carriers + +
    • +
    +
  • +
+
+
+
+

UMTS: DUW + RUS

+
+
    +
  • + +DUW is Digital Unit WCDMA + +
  • +
  • + +is used with RUS or RRUS (like DUG 20) + +
  • +
  • + +offers Iub interface to RNC + +
  • +
  • + +no FOSS RNC, so not very interesting :( + +
  • +
+
+
+
+

LTE: DUL + RUS

+
+
    +
  • + +DUL is Digital Unit LTE + +
  • +
+
+
+
+

GSM/UMTS/LTE in one: DUS 31 / 41

+
+
    +
  • + +DUS are multi-standard DU (GSM/UMTS/LTE) + +
  • +
  • + +DUS 31 capacity up to 24 GSM TRX + +
      +
    • + +or up to 12 GSM TRX combined with LTE + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +DUS 41 capacity up to 48 GSM TRX + +
      +
    • + +or up to 12 GSM TRX combined with LTE + +
    • +
    +
  • +
  • + +Back-haul is Ethernet only, no E1/T1/J1 anymore + +
      +
    • + +it is presumed that it’s like an internal software-only SIU-02 + +

Ericsson + Osmocom

+
+

We do have some history of RBS2000 support

+
    +
  • + +OsmoNITB has OM2000 implementation proven with RBS2000 + +
  • +
  • + +OsmoBSC inherits that, but breaks voice (no E1 in osmo-mgw yet) + +
  • +
  • + +OsmoBSC has pcu_sock interface for BSC-colocated PCU + +
  • +
  • + +Adding E1/TDM user plane support to osmo-mgw would enable using Ericsson RBS again + +
  • +
  • + +All that’s missing for low-cost macro BTS with Osmocm is an inexpensive E1 interface + +
