3.2.2 Description of the BTS Startup Process
This section details the steps shown in Figure 3-2.
Board Initialization
After the BTS is powered on, the BOOT software of each board transfers the board software
from the Flash memory to the RAM. After the board self-test and initialization, the
communication link between the boards is set up.
If the board initialization fails, the board resets.
Table 3-1 describes the symptom of board initialization.
Table 3-1 Symptom of board initialization
Observation
Method
Description
Through indicators
of the BTS
During the power-on and initialization process of the BCKM and
the BCIM, the RUN indicator flashes fast at 4 Hz.
Before the operation and maintenance link (OML) is set up, the
ACT indicator on the BCKM flashes fast at 4 Hz.
The frequency at which the ALM indicator flashes varies with the
alarm level.
On the service
maintenance system
The BTS is in the link interruption state.
Setting Up the OML
After the self-test, the baseband boards set up the OML with the BSC. Setting up the OML
from the BTS to the BSC is the prerequisite for configuring the BTS at the far end.
The physical bearer between the BTS and the BSC can be E1/T1 or FE. These bears can be
used to transmit ATM cells and IP packets.
The BTS supports the following three modes for setting up OMLs:
3-4
Setting up the OML in ATM over E1/T1 mode
Setting up the OML in IP over E1/T1 mode
Setting up the OML in IP over FE mode
Huawei Technologies Proprietary
Issue 02 (2006-10-10)
Airbridge BTS3606E&3606AE
System Commissioning Guide
3 Commissioning Process
If the OML cannot be set up during the BTS startup, the BTS restarts five minutes later. If the OML
is interrupted when the BTS is processing services, the BTS sets up the OML repeatedly but the BTS
do not restart.
Before querying the status of the CTRM/OMTR, ensure that the status of the CCPM/CECM is
normal.
The following details three modes for setting up OMLs.
The process of setting up the OML in ATM over E1/T1 mode is as follows:
Step 1 When the BTS is started, the BCKM sends a BOOTP request to the CMUX of the BSC.
Step 2 The CMUX writes into the BOOTP frame the information of the transmission channel and
transfers the information to the BAM.
This information is used as the address parameters of the client BTS and is called BOOTP
information.
Step 3 After receiving the BOOTP request, the BAM obtains the BTS ID according to the BOOTP
information (execute the command ADD BTSBTPINFO to map the BTS ID to the BOOTP
information).
Step 4 The BAM obtains the maintenance IP address of the BTS according to the BTS ID (execute
the command ADD BTS to map the BTS ID to the maintenance IP address).
Step 5 The BAM writes the maintenance IP address into the BOOTP response frame and sends the
frame to the BTS.
Step 6 After obtaining the maintenance IP address, the BTS sends a request for setting up a TCP link
to the BAM.
Step 7 The BAM receives this request and sets up the OML from the BTS to the BAM.
----End
In the case of setting up the OML through the E1/T1 link in the IP transmission mode, after
two BOOTP requests, the BTS obtains the IP address of the BCIM, routing information, and
maintenance IP address of the BTS.
For the details of the BOOT requests of the BCKM, see the description of setting up the OML
in ATM over E1/T1 mode in 3.2.2 "Description of the BTS Startup Process."
The process of setting up the OML in IP over E1/T1 mode is as follows:
Step 1 When the BTS is started, the BCIM sends the PPP setup request to the BSC. After obtaining
the PPP IP address, the BTS sets up a PPP connection with the BSC.
Step 2 The BCIM sends a BOOTP request to the CBPE of the BSC.
Step 3 After receiving the BOOTP request, the CBPE obtains the IP address and routing information
of the BCIM from the BOOTP transmission channel.
Step 4 The CBPE writes the maintenance IP address of the BCIM into the BOOTP response frame
and sends it to the BCIM.
Step 5 The BCKM sends the BOOTP request to the BSC and obtains the maintenance IP address of
the BTS.
Step 6 After obtaining the maintenance IP address, the BTS sends a request for setting up a TCP link
to the BAM.

3 Commissioning Process
Step 7 The BAM receives this request and sets up the OML from the BTS to the BAM.
----End
In the case of setting up the OML in IP over FE mode, the IP address of the BCIM and the
O&M IP address of the BTS cannot be obtained through the BOOTP if the BTS starts for the
first time. You must configure them at the BTS side.
The process of setting up the OML in IP over FE mode is as follows:
Step 1 Execute the command SET CBTSBCIMIP to set the IP address of the BCIM.
Step 2 Execute the command ADD CBTSFEPORT to set the FE port on the BCIM.
Step 3 Execute the command ADD CBTSIPROUTE to set the BTS routing information.
Step 4 Execute the command SET CBTSOAMIP to set an IP address of the BTS O&M.
Step 5 The BTS sends a request for setting up an OML with the BSC.
Step 6 The BAM receives the request and sets up an OML from the BTS to the BSC.
----End
Table 3-2 lists the indicator status during the OML setup.

Observation Method
Description
Through the indicators of
the BTS
After the OML is set up normally, the ACT indicators of the
BCKM and BCIM are ON.
On service maintenance
system
After the OML is set up normally, you can view the running
status of the BCKM and the BCIM on the equipment panel.
Searching Satellites
After being initialized, the BCKM searches the satellite to obtain stable and reliable clock
signals for the BTS. If satellite searching fails, the ACT indicator of the BCKM flashes slowly.
At the same time, the CCPM or the CECM restarts repeatedly. If the standby BCKM is
configured and it can search satellite normally, the standby BCKM switches over to the active
one.
Downloading and Activating Data Configuration Files
The BTS downloads and activates the data configuration files from the BAM first. If the
software version of the board is not consistent with that of the BAM and the switch of
auto-download is on, the BTS downloads the board software automatically.
If the OML setup fails and the data configuration files are saved in the Flash memory of the
BCKM, the BTS directly activates the data configuration files in the Flash memory.

After the configuration, you can view the running status of all the
boards on the equipment panel.
Observing the
correlated alarm
The alarm related to link interruption is generated.
Setting Up Traffic Links
After the BTS obtains a stable clock signal, the CCPM or the CECM sets up the Abis traffic
link through the BCIM according to the configuration parameter obtained from the operation
& maintenance unit (OMU). Then the CCPM or the CECM exchanges traffic data with the
BSC.
Setting Up Signaling Links
After the configuration, the BCKM sets up the Abis signaling link to communicate with the
BSC through the BCIM according to the configuration parameter obtained from the OMU.
When the Abis signaling link is interrupted, the BTS resets automatically 10 minutes later.
Setting Up Cells
After the Abis signaling link is set up, the BCKM reports the BTS resource configuration state
to the BSC and requests logical configuration.
After the BSC sends the cell configuration data to the BCKM, the BTS configures the carrier
properties, sets up the common channel, and updates the overhead message. After that, the
MS is allowed to access the network and make a call.

3 Commissioning Process
When the BTS3606E/BTS3606AE uses the multi-carrier transceiver, the CMTR/OMTR and
CMPA/OMPA need about five minutes to perform self adaptation after software loading.
During this period, the index of transmit signals cannot satisfy the rated requirement and the
adjacent channels are affected.
3.5.1 Forward Power Test
This section describes how to conduct a forward power test. It also describes the precautions
you must take before conducting a forward power test.
Precautions
Pay attention to the following points when conducting a forward power test:
The fan box must be installed to ensure the normal operation of the power amplifier.
Power unit is 0.1 dBm.
Ensure that the coupling port without the connection lines is connected to a matching
load to avoid generating internal interference and external radiation.
Consider RF cable loss (it is related to the texture and thickness of the RF cable) when
analyzing the test result. In general, the loss of one-meter cable is 0.5 dB, and that of
two-meter cable is 1 dB.
Before the power test, stop all services. The TRM restarts after the test is complete.
Connect the power meter to the TX/RX-TEST port using an RF coaxial cable and then
perform the power test.
Take the cable loss and the coupling degree of the TX/RXM-TEST port into account.
The coupling degree of the TX/RX-TEST port is available in the model information of
this port. It is generally 30 dB.
If a high-precision power meter is used, carry out the test on the antenna port and test
port. If a low-precision power meter is used, carry out the test on the antenna port.
Test Procedure
The test procedure is as follows:
Step 1 Connect the cables.
Figure 3-8 shows the connection for forward power test when configuring a CDDU.

Step 2 In the Windows operating system of the LMT, select Start > Run, type Telnet
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in the Run dialog box, and then press Enter to start Telnet.
For the near end Telnet, the default IP address of the Ethernet port is 172.16.16.16.
Step 3 Start the power test for the BTS transmitting at full power.
For example, for the 450A carrier, execute the following commands:
HW CBTS>str trmpowertst:brdid=2,chid=0,channo=210
Are you sure?(Y or N)y
Ok
HW CBTS>str trmpowertst:brdid=2,chid=1,channo=160
Are you sure?(Y or N)y
Ok
HW CBTS>str trmpowertst:brdid=2,chid=2,channo=260
Are you sure?(Y or N)y
Ok
"chid" is the ID of a carrier provided by the TRM. The IDs of the carriers provided by the
CMTR/OMTR are 0, 1, and 2.
"channo" is the center frequency of the carrier.
You must test the powers of the three carriers of the CMTR/OMTR at the same time.
Step 4 After preheating the BTS for ten minutes, check the output power that is displayed on the
power meter and record the value.
Step 5 Analyze the test result.
See section 3.5.2 "Forward Power Test Analysis."
If the result is abnormal, handle the situation according to section 3.5.2 "Forward Power Test
Analysis."

Step 6 If the result is normal, conduct forward power interface tracing and compare the test result
with the power test result.
For example, to trace the CMTR or OMTR configured in slot 2, execute the following
commands:
HW CBTS>str infotrace
<(brdtp=?bckm_omu/bckm_sig/bckm_clk/bcim/ccpm/trm), mandatory >trm
<(brdid=?),mandatory >2
<(item=?),optional>"power"
ok
Step 7 Stop forward power interface tracing.
For example, to stop tracing the CMTR or OMTR configured in slot 2, execute the following
commands:
HW CBTS>stp infotrace
<(brdtp=?bckm_omu/bckm_sig/bckm_clk/bcim/ccpm/trm), mandatory >trm
<(brdid=?),mandatory >2
<(item=?),optional>"power"
ok
Step 8 Repeat steps 1 to 5 to test other CMTRs or OMTRs.
Step 9 Stop the power test as follows:
HW CBTS>stp trmpowertst
<(brdid=?),mandatory >2
<(chid=?),mandatory >1
ok

Analysis of Test Result
The analysis of the test result is described as follows:
The normal output power (Digital power) for a carrier is 43 dBm ! 1 dB (that is, 20 W !
1 dB).
If the test result displayed on the power meter is out of normal range, compare it with the
result of interface tracing.
Troubleshooting
Some common troubleshooting methods are as follows:
3-24
If the test result displayed on the power meter is out of normal range, start interface
tracing to check the values of the parameters Base band power, Digital power, and
HPA Output power.
In theory, if the value of the parameter Base band power is not normal, the values of
Digital power and HPA Output power are also not normal. In such a case, check if the
BTS gain is set correctly. If BTS gain is correct, analyze the CCPM performance and
CECM performance by querying BTS configuration and checking the
CSM5000/CSM5500/CSM6800.

If Base band power is normal, but Digital power is not normal, the values of HPA
Output power must be not normal in theory. In such a case, check the CMTR or OMTR
to locate the fault. For example, insert and remove it, or replace it.
If only HPA Output power is not normal, check the installation of CMPA or OMPA and
its connection with the CMTR or OMTR.
If all the parameter values reported in the interface tracing are normal, do as follows:
−
Check the connections between the CMPA/OMPA and the CDDU/IDFU/ODFU.
−
Check the antenna system and ports on the top of the cabinet for errors.
3.5.3 Reverse RSSI Test
The RSSI test includes the local RSSI test and the remote RSSI test.
In the case of the remote RSSI test, you can perform the reverse RSSI test by:
Selecting Resource Monitoring > RSSI Monitoring, or
Logging in to the BTS in Telnet mode.
In the case of local RSSI test, you can connect the WS to the BCKM by using a crossover
Ethernet cable and then log in to the BTS in Telnet mode. In this mode, you can use
commands to perform BTS commissioning.
This section describes how to conduct reverse RSSI tests in the local RSSI test. It also
describes the precautions you must take when conducting the tests.
Precautions
Note the following points before conducting the forward power test:
You can choose not to install RF fans; however, to ensure zero transmission power, you
have to connect the antenna with the CDDU/CDFU.
The unit for the average and peak values of RSSI is 0.1 dBm.
Check whether the coupling port without connection lines is connected to a matching
load to avoid generating internal interference and external radiation.
Test Procedure
The test procedure is as follows:

Soft handoff refers to a handoff between different cells operating at the same frequency. Softer
handoff refers to a handoff between different sectors operating at the same frequency and in the
same cell.
One cell may contain one or more sectors. This test is relevant when multiple sectors are planned.
The test procedure is as follows:
Step 1 Register two test CDMA MSs in the HLR.
Step 2 Power on the two MSs so that they are attached to the network and they switch to idle mode.
Step 3 Make a call in one sector to set up the conversation between the two MSs.
Step 4 Maintain the call and move one MS to the destination sector.
Step 5 Check that :
The call is maintained and stable.
Voice quality is good.

3.6.6 Mobile-Originated Packet Data Call Test
Ensure that the system uses dynamic rate allocation.
The test procedure is as follows:
Step 1 Register a test MS in the HLR.
Step 2 Prepare a BlueRose and keep an FTP server ready.
Step 3 Set up a connection between the test MS and the FTP server using the BlueRose and then
initiate an FTP uploading process.
Step 4 Observe the signaling messages and the state transition of the MS on BlueRose.
Step 5 Check the channel setup between the MS and the sector.
If the packet data service is unavailable after you log in to the FTP server, infer that the
MS is in dormant mode. If the packet data service is available, infer that the MS is in
active mode.
After an FCH is set up, the BTS sends ESCAM messages repeatedly and performs SCH
set-up or SCH extension repeatedly.

4 Troubleshooting
4.1 Overview of Troubleshooting
The service commissioning includes the commissioning for the BSS, MSC/VLR, HLR, AUC,
and the interfaces with the PSTN and internet. You must locate the fault by specific analysis.
You can know the working status of the BTS by judging:
Whether the MS can access to the network.
Whether the MS can set up the traffic links.
4.2 Board Alarms
This section describes the types of board alarms and their handing methods.
4.2.1 Alarm Description
The board faults that occur during the operation of BTS are reported to the OMU in the form
of logs and alarms. The OMU records and processes the faults, and then reports them to the
OMC.
The different types of board alarms are as follows:
Public alarms such as T8206 related alarm, self-test failure alarm, TTP link alarm, and
temperature alarm
BCKM alarms such as software PLL unlocked alarm, clock alarm, and Abis signaling
link interruption alarm
CECM/CCPM alarms such as FPGA self-test failure alarm, 50fc PLL unlocked alarm,
CSM5000 chip alarm, and message queue alarm
CMTR/OMTR alarms such as PLL unlocked alarm, receive path input overload alarm,
board temperature alarm, forward digital power too high alarm, DAGC alarm, FPGA
alarm, EPLD alarm, RF PLL unlocked alarm, sector VSWR alarm, fan failure alarm,
HPAU alarm, and LNA failure alarm
4.2.2 Alarm Handling
When a fault occurs or when a fault alarm is cleared, the board reports alarm messages to the
OMU. The OMU determines the availability of the board according to the alarm severity.
Table 4-1 describes how to handle different types of board alarms.
Table 4-1 Handling board alarms
To Handle
Take the Following Action
Clock alarms or PLL unlocked alarms

4.3 Room Environment Alarms
This section describes the alarms related to the BTS3606E equipment room environment and
their handing methods.
4.3.1 Alarm Description
Room environment alarms are collected by an environment alarm chest (EAC) connected
with the BTS3606E. Such alarms include the fire alarm, smoke alarm, access control alarm,
water alarm, temperature alarm, humidity alarm, and air-conditioner alarm.
4.3.2 Alarm Handling
The process for handling an environment alarm is as follows:
Step 1 Upon receiving an environment alarm, the OMU starts the related external devices, such as
air-conditioners, fire extinguishers, smoke removers, and dehumidifiers.
Step 2 The OMU reports alarm messages to the OMC.
Step 3 The OMC displays the alarm on terminals so that maintenance engineers can take actions to
clear the alarms.
