INTRODUCTION
The most popular type of Wireless Base Station deployment (cell site) consists of a
Base Transceiver Station (BTS) located in close proximity to the antenna tower. This
BTS connects to both the Mobile Switching Center (MSC), which directs hand-off
between towers for mobile users, and the Radio Frequency (RF) transmitters/receivers
antenna located on the tower structure. The “hut” at the base of the tower or in the
basement of a tall building is configured with the RF transceivers and RF amplifiers,
along with the baseband processing unit, test and alarm unit, ac power, battery back-up
systems, and a backhaul transport unit (MSC connection), all of which are typically
installed in a single rack enclosure. The RF amplifiers drive through the cables to the
antenna located at the top of the elevated tower. This typical setup requires climate
controls for the entire building structure, a large building site footprint, and a hefty
back-up system (large, bulky batteries); it also is subject to high signal and power losses
in the cable due to the length of the cable between the RF amplifiers and the
transmitter/receiver antennas mounted at the top of the tower. Tower Mounted
Amplifiers (TMAs) are sometimes required to boost this RF signal when the distance
between the tower-mounted antenna and the BTS location is too great. Some
architecture changes are being implemented to correct some of these long-standing
drawbacks.
Five basic Base Station architectures are in use today:
1. Legacy architecture, with all of the equipment located inside the BTS hut, with
a coax connection to the top of the tower and a fiber/copper connection to the
MSC (illustrated in Figure 1).
2. Split architecture design, with the Base Band Unit (BBU) located indoors and a
Remote Radio Unit (RRU) located on the tower (illustrated in Figure 2).
3. “Hoteling” approach that uses a single BTS hut but connects to multiple towers
(illustrated in Figure 3).

location.

4. All-outdoor, zero-footprint BTS, with all components located on the tower


(essentially multiple boxes on the tower that travel via a combination of coax to
the antennas and fiber/copper to the MSC without a BTS hut in between, as
illustrated in Figure 4).
5. Capacity Transfer System (wireless BTS repeater concept) (illustrated in Figure
6).

BTS EQUIPMENT
Indoor Macro Base Station
Indoor macro base station, is the fourth generation base station developed by Huawei. It
features a multi-mode modular design and supports three working modes: GSM mode
(GO), GSM+UMTS dual mode (GU), and UMTS mode (UO) through configuration of
different hardware and software. In addition, the BTS3900 supports smooth evolution to
the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system.
