Revision 2.0   System Block Diagram 2-12.1. System Block DiagramThis chapter presents FibeAir 1500 basic principles of operation. TheFibeAir 1500 design concept is based on universal radio architecture.A radio link consists of two FibeAir 1500 terminals. Each terminal includesthree major LRU’s, IDU, ODU and the Antenna. A single cable, carryingcommunications and DC power, interconnects the IDU with the ODU.Figure 2-1 presents FibeAir 1500 main blocks and modules.Figure 2-1  FibeAir 1500 System Block Diagram

In Door Unit (IDU)The IDU is a compact, 17” wide, 1U-high unit, mount compatible for bothETSI and ANSI standard racks. The IDU modulates/demodulates the155Mbps Sonet/SDH payloads, manages local and remote units, providesI/O line alarms, and provides interfaces for 1.544/2.048 Mbps Waysidechannel, 64Kbps User channel and 64Kbps Order Wire channel.The IDU also interfaces a Local Maintenance Terminal or NetworkManagement System. In addition, status alarms and indicators are providedon the front panel.The IDU major modules: n Multiplexer n Modem n Manager Card n  Cable Interface n Power Supply2.2.1. MultiplexerThe Mux module functions as a Sonet/SDH Regenerator. On the line side itinterfaces the OC-3/STM-1 stream, and on the radio side the Modemmodule.As a regenerator, the MUX either terminates or regenerates theOC-3/STM-1 RSOH. In one direction, the OC-3/STM-1 stream, interfacingthrough the MUX’s Rx line input terminates and the resulting stream istransmitted to the Modulator in the Modem module.In the opposite direction, the stream coming from the Modem’sDemodulator, undergoes OC-3/STM-1 Regeneration in the MUX, andtransmitted through the MUX’s Tx line output.In addition, the MUX module uses the OC-3/STM-1 SOH bytes to supportother services: 1.544/2.048 Mbps Wayside channel and management, 64Kbps User Channel and Order Wire channel.The MUX module may be configured via software for transparency of mostof the SOH bytes for maximum system transparency and non-intervention,at the cost of reduced functionality and services.The multiplexer module enables to integrate different interfaces andservices into the SDH payload to converge Datacom and Telecomapplications.

The modemdelivers a 155 Mb/s payload in 50/56 MHz channel bandwidth in compliancewith FCC/ETSI standards. The Modem is equipped with Digital SignalProcessing functions as follows: n  Digital IF - I/Q modulator/demodulator whose functions are: ⇒ Conversion of the modulated signal to/from the IF frequency. ⇒ Automatic level equalization on the signal from ODU. ⇒ Protection against overloads. n  Timing recovery techniques employing digital tracking loop. n  FEC ensures unfaded BER lower than 10-13.The following figure illustrates a measured 16 QAM constellation.Figure 2-2  16 QAM Constellation

Manager ModuleThe Manager module controls and manages all system’s modules, localand remote units.The Manager module also supports the user interface through Ethernet orPPP/SLIP to the management station, and an ASCII terminal port. A local ordumb terminal can be used for basic configuration and performancemonitoring.Other features include: n Log file. n  Remote software and firmware download (upgrades can bedownloaded from local to remote). n  Performance monitoring.2.2.4.  Cable InterfacesA single coaxial cable connects the IDU to the ODU. This cable carries thefollowing signals: n  Transmit and receive modulated signals. n  Transmit and receive control data and communications between theIDU manager and the ODU controller. n  DC power from the IDU to the ODU.The system automatically issues an alarm if the cable is disconnected andprovides protection against shorts. Furthermore, there is no need tomeasure and define the length and type of cable used since the systemautomatically compensates cable parameters.The following figure illustrates the signal direction through the coaxial cable.-48 VDCODU TO IDU (CONTROL)IDU TO ODU (CONTROL)TX (PAYLOAD 155M)RX (PAYLOAD 155M)Figure 2-3  Signal Direction Through the Coaxial Cable

Power SuppliesThe power supply features: n  Standard Input : -48VDC n  DC input range : -40.5VDC  to  –72VDC n DC/DC converter. n  Reverse polarity protection. n  Over-voltage and over-current protection. n  Detection of IDU-ODU cable alarms (i.e. cable open, cable short).The ODU receives its DC power from the IDU. The PWR LED on the frontpanel of the IDU continuously lights to indicate the existence of inputvoltage.2.3.  Out Door Unit (ODU)The ODU is designed to be fastened to the antenna using four latches. Theantenna is mounted on a standard mounting pole. The ODU is enclosed in acompact, weather proof enclosure and connects to the IDU via a singlecoaxial cable that can extend up to 300m (1000 ft).The ODU major modules: n T/R Module – A high sensitivity RF circuitry with full band frequencytuning range. n Controller – Controls the ODU and provides ODU status signals, andaccurate received signal level (RSL) reading (in dBm). n  Cable Combiner – Detailed in paragraph 2.2.4. n  Power Supply - Detailed in paragraph 2.2.5.Figure 2-4  ODU Mounted on the AntennaLatches
