RNU4000BS Base Station User Manual Runcom Technologies Ltd. 1 1 Introducing the RNU4000BS BS Runcom's RNU4000BS fully integrated outdoor WiMAX BS provides flexible, cost-effective WiMAX network deployment solutions where increased capacity and coverage is required. ‘All-in-one’ architecture combined with simple, single-handed installation and fast rollout make these BSs an ideal solution for operators that want to get in on the ground floor of WiMAX deployment at significant CAPEX reductions and maximum return on their network deployment. The RNU4000BS is designed for coverage flexibility: depending on the required scenario, the same BS can be configured to cover more sectors with relatively sparse concurrent user requirements or fewer sectors with higher needs. RNU4000BS BSs provide adaptable solutions, allowing interoperability with other MSS devices as well as ASN-GW vendors.
RNU4000BS Base Station User Manual 2 Runcom Technologies Ltd. Features • All in one integrated packaging of RF and Base-band components. • Full compliance with IEEE802.16e-2005according to the WiMAX Forum profiles. • Frequency Bands (model dependent): 470-698MHz, 705–745MHz, 1.6-1.8GHz, 2.3-2.7GHz, 3.3-3.8GHz (CBP capability for band 3.675-3.700GHz is required), 4.9-5.0GHz other bands are optional. • Supports MIMO 2x2, HARQ, and other state of the art features, which increase performance. • 4 channels ready unit – 2 channels supplied by default can be license-key activated for 4 channels. • Transition Power – 2 or 4 x Tx, 24dBm each. • Antenna support - model dependent: four either external or internal antennas. • Integrated GPS receiver for time and clock synchronization with holdover for satellite signal loss. • Flexible coverage capabilities – greater coverage area or greater penetration capabilities • Small footprint, single-handed quick installation and simple provisioning • Fast roll-out for service providers • Seamless and cost-effective integration with a Backhaul network • Optional integrated backhaul link via WiMAX R1 interface • High performance with Quality of Service (QoS) settings, according to WiMAX standards. • Support for the latest R6 interface and GRE tunneling to ASN-GW • Remote NMS management via Runcom’s NMS application
RNU4000BS Base Station User Manual Runcom Technologies Ltd. 3 1.1 Coverage Configurations RNU4000BS supports either two or four RF channels and can provide coverage for either one, two or four sectors depending on the sector density (throughput capacity) and radio performance requirements (note that internal antenna can be used for single sector coverage only): • Single-Sector solution of 4x4 – (for internal and external antennas) – used for higher density sites: four channels for Tx and four channels for Rx MRC. This configuration improves coverage through diversity and improve throughput through MIMO 4x2. • Dual-Sector solution of 2x2 (only relevant for external antennas) – used for lower populated sites: two channels for Tx channels and two channels for Rx MRC. MIMO of 2x2 can be perform if signal to noise ratio is good. • Quad-Sector solution of 1x4 (only relevant for external antennas) – used for more sparsely populated sites: single channel for Tx and single channel for Rx. This configuration is highly cost effective but suffer from lower performance and coverage area per sector (totally it covers more space) The overall capacity, of single base station unit, with respect to the maximum number of connected users, supported bands and throughput is constant; however, in a dual-sector installation, the BS will transmit to two separate sectors in a cell, where each sector is serviced by two antennas. In quad sector installation the BS will transmit to four sectors in a cell (Usually covers the entire cell 3600), where each sector is serviced by one antenna. These two configurations reduce CAPEX and OPAX for operators by covering cells with relatively low density or sparsely populations, which have low requirements for concurrent user’s and / or lower data traffic. The following figure shows a single sector covered by 4x Tx/Rx channels. Several of these sectors (within the same site) should be installed, using the corresponding number of RNU4000BSs, to complete site coverage. Each site can use single GPS antenna, installed on one of the BS, daisy-chained from BS to
RNU4000BS Base Station User Manual 4 Runcom Technologies Ltd. another, to perform Figure 1 Single Sector Coverage
RNU4000BS Base Station User Manual Runcom Technologies Ltd. 5 • The following figure illustrates dual-sector coverage of two sites by a single RNU4000BS unit. Figure 2 Dual Sector Coverage 1.2 RNU4000BS Interfaces and Accessories The interfaces of the RNU4000BS BS are distributed over two panels.
