2 iCell SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This chapter provides an iCell system description.
2.1 Introduction
The iCell is an IP-based solution for CDMA2000 1X radio access networks.
The iCell system provides the overall functionality of a CDMA2000 1X Base station
transceiver subsystem (BTS) and soft base station controller (sBSC), providing an IP
over Ethernet interface to the core network. Figure 2-1 shows the system architecture.

2.2 System Components
The main iCell system network components are explained in this section.
2.2.1 BTS
The BTS is the iCell Base Station Transceiver Subsystem. There can be several BTS units
per sBSC.
The BTS is the radio transmitter/receiver that maintains communication with Mobile
phones. It can be configured as Omni, two sectors or 3 sectors.
The BTS is connected through a Fast Ethernet Switch to the sBSC.
Normally in an enterprise installation, the first BTS unit is connected to the GPS receiver
and serves as an SNTP server for the sBSC and the other BTS units served by the
sBSC. This BTS distributes the TOD protocol messages to other BTS units. The SNTP
server on the first BTS is defined by an IP address. Each additional BTS unit served by
the sBSC is configured to refer to the IP address of the SNTP server.
For single isolated Pico installation where GPS synchronization for handoff is not
required, there is also an option to use an external SNTP server for correct TOD
eliminating the need to install a GPS unit. (see Figure 2.3)
2.2.2 sBSC
The sBSC has the following features:
�The sBSC is the iCell Soft Base Station Controller which can
support several BTS units
�The sBSC must be identified by the MSC
�The sBSC is configured to refer to the IP address of the SNTP server
2.2.3 Global Positioning System (GPS)
The following GPS-produced signals are used for each BTS when Soft or Hard Handoff
is a requirement:
�Time Of Day (TOD) message
�Synchronized 1 PPS
MovingMedia 2000 iCell Pico BTS Installation Guide Page 8 of 16
2.2.3.1 Direct GPS and Daisy Chain of 1 PPS source
For in-building installations, the GPS receiver is connected to one BTS (the first BTS)
in each cluster, directly through the 1 PPS IN SMA connector and the RS232 TOD
port. The 1PPS signal can be extended via coax to other nearby BTS units using the
“1PPS OUT” port of the first BTS going to the 1 PPS IN port of the next BTS.

2.2.4 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Server
The SNTP server provides client and server services to obtain and set accurate date
and time in network-connected devices. It operates in three selectable modes:
�Unicast:
A client sends a request to a designated time server at its
unicast address and receives a response from which it
determines the time.
�Multicast:
A time server periodically sends a message containing the
current time to a designated multicast group address. The
client listens on this multicast address.
�Anycast:
A client sends a request to a designated local broadcast
address or multicast group address. One or more time servers
reply with their own unicast address and the client binds to the
first one it receives. The client continues operation in unicast
mode.

3 BTS PHYSICAL INSTALLATION
3.1 General
This chapter provides physical installation and wiring instructions for the BTS.
3.2 Unpacking
Upon receipt of, and before opening the iCell packages, inspect for any damage that
might have occurred during shipping. If the package shows any signs of external
damage or rough handling, notify your carrier's representative.
CAUTION
All modules are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD) even while
installed. Take the necessary precautions to minimize electrostatic damage
while handling modules.
Carefully remove all parts and hardware out of the
packages. Carry out a full inventory before installation
procedure starts.

3.2.2 BTS Wall Mount Packing list
The iCell wall mount package includes the following:
1. Pico BTS complete with cover
2. AC adapter unit
3. Wall Mounting bracket
4. Optional GPS unit (Mandatory when CDMA Handoff is required)
3.3 Mounting Instructions
The section provides instructions for the following:
�19" rack mounting
�Wall mounting
3.3.1 BTS 19" Rack Mount
See Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2.
1. Insert the BTS 1X 19" unit into a 19" rack. Secure with four NF10 screws.
2. Connect BTS 19" Rack Mount according to paragraph 3.4.2.

3.3.2 BTS Wall Mount
See Figure 3-3.
BTS Wall Mount
MovingMedia 2000 iCell Pico BTS Installation Guide Page 13 of 16
Perform the wall mounting. Mark the location of the drilling holes according to Figure
3-4. Drill three holes
Hang the Mounting Bracket in the marked location and fasten with three screws.
Mount the Power Supply onto the Wall Mount Bracket. Assemble the iCell unit to the
bracket on the spacers. Connect a BTS module according to section 3.4.2.
Figure 3-4: Hole Location for Mounting Bracket
To comply with Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) requirements, the maximum composite
EIRP output from the antenna cannot exceed 1.26 Watts EIRP and the antenna must be
permanently installed in a fixed location that provides at least 13 cm of separation from all persons.
This is maximum separation based on the possibility of connecting the Pico to a very high gain
directional antenna of 11 dBi. A more typical 3 dBi gain antenna would result in a separation
distance of 5 cm.
3.4 Interface Connections
3.4.1 BTS Interface Connections
Verify that the power switch is off and the external AC power line is
disconnected.
3.4.2 BTS Interface Connection
Figure 3-7 illustrates the wiring diagram of the wall mount configuration and Table 3-4
provides the wiring parameters.

in-building deployments.
All unused SMA connectors should be terminated.
For wall mount Pico, connect 4 pin DIN cable from AC adapter output to
BTS 5.2VDC input and connect AC adapter to 110 or 220 V AC supply
For AC Rack mount version, just connect the AC cord to 110 or 220 V AC
supply.
For DC Rack Mount version, make sure the main rack breaker is off and the
BTS power switch is in the off position. Connect the –48v wire as indicated
on the rear of the unit marked “–“ or “–48v” and the positive (Bat. Rtn) wire
to the terminal marked “+” or Bat Return.
The BTS unit is now ready for configuration and testing.
