by pushing hands into some types of insulation packing material, or ungrounded
soldering irons.
Observe the following precautions when handling electronic components:
- Always wear a ground strap connected to the electrostatic point on the equipment.
- Cotton clothing produces less static than nylon and other synthetic materials.
- Use a grounded metal surface or anti-static mat. Wipe clean with an anti-static cloth.
- Use all-metal tools and place on grounded surface when not being used.
- Use caution when removing components connected to electrostatic sensitive devices.
The components may provide protection from static shock.
- Do not remove the replacement device from its protective packaging until actual
installation of the device. It may be necessary to replace foam with wire, due to space
constraints.
- Printed circuit boards (PCBs) should always be handled with care. Handle only by the
edges and do not directly touch connectors, tracks, or pins.
1.9

Chapter
Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of the Redline Communications RedMAX 4C wireless
broadband base station. Redline Communications is a world leader in design and
production of Broadband Wireless (BFW) systems. The RedMAX 4C base station is a
complete Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e-2005) compliant broadband wireless base
station. Fully designed as a WiMAX-based solution, the base station has demonstrated
interoperability with an emerging base of WiMAX subscriber equipment.
Services
The base station is (part of) the IEEE 802.16e-2005 definition of a base station. A base
station functions as a central hub or concentrator, connected to a WAN network access
point, and managing wireless links for remote subscribers. The base station enforces the
Quality of Service (QoS) settings over the air interface by controlling all uplink and
downlink traffic scheduling -- providing non-contention based traffic with predictable
transmission characteristics.
The base station delivers fixed, nomadic, portable, and mobile services. Portable
services provide limited handover for users moving within and across neighboring
sectors and base stations. Mobile services provide full roaming capability to maintain all
QoS (quality of service) and SLAs (service level agreements) while moving at vehicular
speeds through WiMAX coverage areas.
Equipment
The base station consists of an indoor chassis and outdoor transceiver and antenna.
Each operational wireless broadband network segment is comprised of a base station
and one or more WiMAX Forum Certified™ subscribers. Each subscriber registers and
establishes a bi-directional data link with the base station.
The base station operates under the control of an ASN gateway providing supporting
management functions including: Accounting, Inter-Base Station Mobility, Base Station
Management, Admission Control, and Access Authentication.
Network
High reliability is provided through comprehensive OAM&P (Operation, Administration,
Maintenance and Provisioning) features including: fault tolerance, alarms and TCAs
(Threshold Crossing Alerts), performance and inventory reports, and software
management. Chassis management can be performed (via the SOAP/XML interfaces)
using the Redline Management Suite (RMS) or a third party Element Management
System (EMS). The RMS uses the TMF 814 NBI (Northbound Interface) to the OSS
(Operations Support System) and SNMP MIBs.

2.3.3
PHY Specification
The base station is designed for 2-11 GHz operation based on the WirelessMANOFDMA PHY definition in the IEEE 802.16e-2005 specifications. Refer to the system
specifications for supported frequency ranges.
2.3.4
OFDMA
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) is a multi-user version of the
OFDM digital modulation scheme. Multiple access is achieved in OFDMA by assigning
subsets of subcarriers to individual users - allowing simultaneous transmission from
several users.
OFDMA uses the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm to implement modulation and
demodulation functions. Using adequate channel coding and bit-interleaving, OFDMA
can perform very well in severe multipath environments, mitigate frequency selective
fading and provide high spectral efficiency.
2.3.5
Privacy
The base station implements IEEE 802.16e-2005 Privacy Sublayer and the NWG
Standalone Model Security Architecture. The base station provides an Authentication
Relay function to manage exchanges with an Authenticator in the ASN (Authentication
Relay Protocol-EAP), and a Supplicant function in the CPE (PKMv2-EAP). This
standards-based framework provides user/device authentication and services
authorization using off-the-shelf AAA servers.

Time Division Duplexing (TDD)
The base station system uses time division duplexing (TDD) to transmit and receive on
the same RF channel, or separate RF channels using HD-FDD (half-duplex FDD).
These are both non-contention based methods for providing an efficient and predictable
two-way PTP or PMP cell deployment. All uplink and downlink transmission scheduling
is managed by the base station. The base station sends data traffic to subscribers, polls
for grant requests, and sends grant acknowledgements based on the total of all traffic to
all subscribers.

BASE STATION
CTC (Convolutional Turbo Codes) and Coding Rates
Turbo codes are used for error correction. When used in combination with parity-check
codes, these techniques can approach the theoretical limit (Shannon limit) of maximum
information transfer rate over a noisy channel.
As part of the error correction technique, each burst of data transmitted over the wireless
interface is padded with redundant information, making it more resistant to potential
over-the-air errors. The coding rate is the ratio of user data to the total data transmitted
including the redundant error correction data. The base station supports coding rates of
1/2, 2/3, 3/4, and 5/6.
2.3.8
Modulation
The modulation technique specifies how the data is coded within the OFDMA carriers.
The base station supports BPSK, QPSK, 16 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation),
and 64 QAM modulation.
2.3.9
Channelization
The base station is a frequency-specific system, with the frequency band defined by the
transceiver unit. The base station divides the available frequency band into channels.
Allocation of channels during deployment is dependent on spectrum availability in the
licensed FWA band and local licensing requirements and conditions. Channel selection
allows planners to obtain the maximum geographic coverage, while avoiding frequency
contention in adjacent sectors.
2.3.10 Service Flows
A Service Flow represents a unidirectional data flow with separate QoS settings for
uplink and downlink. Service flows provide the ability to set up multiple connections to
each subscriber in a sector. Separate service flows can be established for uplink and
downlink traffic, where each service flow is assigned a unique service level category and
separate QoS settings. This feature allows segregation of high-speed/high-priority traffic
from less time-critical flows.

levels necessary for Time Division Multiplexed (TDM)
services.
Provides guarantees on throughput and latency, but
greater tolerance on latency. Applicable for VoIP and
video conferencing applications.
Provides services as RT-VR, except that committed
maximum rate can be changed on the fly as requested
by subscriber signaling.
Guarantees throughput only. Applicable to mission critical
data applications that are not latency-dependent.
No guaranteed minimum throughput. Does allow setting a
maximum data rate.
QoS is guaranteed by a unique prioritization and rate-limiting algorithm that dynamically
adapts to wireless conditions, adjusting data throughput to maintain prioritization of
traffic. Up to five classes of service to be assigned to each subscriber.

BASE STATION
Payloads can be classified by multiple parameters including L2 MAC source and
destination address, 802.1p/Q settings, DSCP and TOS bits, L3 IP source and
destination address, and L4 TCP/UDP port number. Ingress classification for payload
admission into the Service Flow architecture is performed at the subscriber/MS for uplink
forwarding, and at the ASN-GW for downlink forwarding.
Requests for specific QoS settings can originate from the subscriber, a host connected
to the subscriber, or a source outside the WiMAX network (e.g., an intermediate server).
Unique QoS settings can be applied for individual users.

PWM - Power Module (Chassis)
The PWM power module provides regulated DC power for all modules in the base
station chassis.
3.3.1
Module Description
The PWM features redundant inputs, allowing power to be supplied from two
independent DC sources. A second PWM module may be installed to provide
redundancy. When two PWM modules are installed and operating normally, the failure of
one PWM module will not affect operation of the base station.
The PWM module is fully 'hot swappable' and the standby unit may be removed and
installed without affecting operation of the base station (refer to 'Using the Hot-Swap
Feature' in the installation guidelines).
The TCM manages the power for each uTCA module. The uTCA Power Module
incorporates a MicroTCA EMMC (Enhanced Module Management Controller) that can
operate independently or be controlled by the TCM module. The EMMC reports voltage
and current levels, faulty power conditions, and local temperature status to the TCM.

TCM - Transport, Clock & Control Module
The Transport, Clock & Control Module (TCM) is a multi-purpose card combining the
OBSAI Transport Block and Control & Clock Block functions.
3.4.1
Module Description
The transport function manages traffic aggregation and the control and clock functions
provide synchronization between the base station modules. Downstream data traffic
received from the core network is distributed to the baseband modules for transmission
over the wireless network, while upstream traffic from the wireless system is aggregated
and sent over the backhaul connection to the core network.
The base station clock is synchronized by a GPS reference signal. Clock signals are
sent through the backplane to the other base station modules.
The shelf may contain up to two TCM modules for redundancy. The TCM module is fully
'hot swappable' and the standby unit may be removed and installed without affecting
operation of the base station (refer to 'Using the Hot-Swap Feature' in the installation

BBM - Baseband Module
The baseband module (BBM) is a WiMAX wireless modem (IEEE 802.16e PHY and
MAC).
3.5.1
Module Description
Downstream data traffic received from the core network is distributed to the baseband
modules for transmission over the wireless network, while upstream traffic from the
wireless system is aggregated and sent over the backhaul connection to the core
network. This port has an associated MAC address.
Each BBM connects to one RRH (one sector) and supports two SISO channels or one
MIMO channel. Up to six BBM (plus two standby) modules may operate concurrently.
The BBM is frequency agnostic (frequency band determined by RRH). The base station
shelf supports an N+1 redundancy configuration. The OBSAI RP3-01 interface cabling
must be provided from each standby BBM module to a radio.
The BBM module is fully 'hot swappable' and may be removed and installed without
powering off the chassis. Removing and replacing a BBM module will not affect
operation of the base station.

RRH - Remote Radio Headend
The Remote Radio Headend (RRH) is the outdoor radio transceiver.
3.6.1
Module Description
The RRH contains an OBSAI RP3-01 interface and two identical TDD RF head-ends
(RFHEs). Each RRH supports two SISO channels or one MIMO channel. Frequency
bands and power are determined by the RRH (the BBM is frequency band agnostic).
The RRH interfaces to one baseband module (BBM) using the OBSAI RP3-01 optical
interface to exchange data and control signals. Power is supplied to each RRH through
separate cabling from dedicated power modules (not base station PWM). The RRH may
be mounted up to 300 m (984 ft) away from the base station chassis. This distance can
be extended based on the fiber type and method of supplying power to the RRH.
Each RRH module has two optical interfaces. These interfaces may be used in one of
the following configurations:
- Connect RRH to a standby BBM module. The optical interface cabling must be
provided from the standby BBM modules to the radios.
- Interconnect two RRH modules (daisy-chain) to provide 1+1 redundancy or 4-branch
MIMO (future option).
Each RRH module contains two RF head-ends. The failure of one radio within the RRH
enclosure results in graceful degradation, but not loss of service.

equipment. It is the user’s responsibility to install proper grounding to protect against
power surges and accumulated static electricity. The base station equipment must be
installed in accordance with the local electrical codes: correct installation procedures for
grounding of the transceiver unit, mast, lead-in wire and discharge unit, location of
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors and connection requirements for grounding
electrodes.

Antenna Systems
The base station supports multi-channel SISO, MIMO Matrix A (STC), and MIMO Matrix
B (2x2 DL, Collaborative MIMO UL). The system also implements Maximal Rate
Combining (MRC) diversity on uplink channels (when MIMO Matrix B is not used). A
selection of 60o to 360o antennas are available for the 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz ranges.

CLI Interface
The base station can be monitored and configured using the Command Line Interface
(CLI) commands. This section describes the procedures for establishing a local console
or Telnet connection, the CLI command structure, and descriptions of individual CLI
commands.
The base station CLI operates in modes. This feature simplifies usage by grouping
related commands together under a specific level. After changing to the desired mode,
the user does not need to preface each command with the full pathname.

Operational Notes
5.1
Synchronization
In TDD mode, the base station and the subscribers transmit at the same frequency, and
require precise base station synchronization (timing between downlink and uplink bursts)
to minimize potential interference and ensure good performance. The IEEE 802.16
standard calls for the use of global positioning system (GPS) receivers to provide the
precise time reference for synchronization of WiMAX networks.
5.2
Examples of 3-Sector Configurations
The modularity of the base station, combined with the OBSAI capabilities, provides a
wide selection of configuration options to meet the requirements and budget of the
network carrier.

No Redundancy
This deployment scenario provides maximum economy without redundancy. In this
configuration, failure of the TCM or PWM module will cause the system to be
unavailable. Failure of a BBM will result in a loss of service for the affected sector.
Failure of a sector radio will revert to SISO for the affected sector or a loss of the sector
(based on the type of failure).

Basic Redundancy
Basic redundancy is provided by adding standby transport, clock and control (TCM) and
power (PWM) modules. Baseband-radio link redundancy is achieved by installing a
standby BBM module with optical interface cables connecting to each sector RRH.
In this configuration, failure of a PWM or TCM module will switch to the dedicated
standby. If any single BBM fails, the system will switch to the standby BBM module. If
any single RFHE RF component fails the radio will operate in SISO mode for that sector.

System Throughput
The base station uses TDD (Time Division Duplexing) for system uplink transmissions,
employing a single frequency for both the base station and the subscriber. The PMP
downlink is a broadcast medium shared and received by all subscribers in the sector.
Transmission priorities are adjustable during provisioning of WiMAX subscribers.
For each channel bandwidth (3.5, 5, 7, and 10 MHz), there are six possible modulation
and coding combinations. In the following tables, the Ethernet throughput is the rate that
can be achieved after burst overhead and acquisitions times are removed.

GPS Synchronization
Important: To minimize inter-sector RF interference, synchronization must be
used to coordinate RF transmissions of base stations.
The IEEE 802.16 standard calls for the use of GPS (Global Positioning System)
receivers to provide the precise time reference for synchronization of WiMAX networks.
Operating in TDD mode, the base station and the subscribers transmit at the same
frequency, and require precise synchronization between downlink and uplink
transmissions. Proper coordination of these activities is required to minimize interference
and ensure the best overall system performance.
The base station uses the GPS 1 PPS signal to set the frequency of the TCM onboard
clock. This TCM reference clock is used when broadcasting a radio frame
synchronization signal to all BBM and RRH modules. If the 1 PPS signal becomes
unavailable at any base station, that TCM enters 'holdover mode' to maintain the highest
accuracy until the GPS signal can be restored.
GPS reference clock systems require that a receiver be placed at each base station and
that the GPS antenna have line-of-sight satellite access. Ideally, a GPS antenna should
be mounted on a rooftop with a full 360º view of the sky, but often an antenna mounted
on the side of a building or a tower with a 180º view of the sky is adequate.
The base station provides the following synchronization schemes.
Model 1 (Standard) – External GPS Unit
The GPS component is an integrated GPS receiver/antenna module. Signal input is
through an RS-232 cable connected to the Serial 1 port on the TCM front panel.
Recommended for short cable runs (~20m).
