Overview
1.1
Introduction
With the multi-mode era coming, ZTE, who is dedicated to providing comprehensive
network solutions and delivering the future-oriented quality network for the operators,
developed the ground breaking SDR unified platform with the essential feature to support
multi-mode and multi-band radio access.
Based on this innovative SDR platform, ZTE promotes a series of products to satisfy
different scenario requirements, including the indoor macro, outdoor macro, distributed,
outdoor micro, mini and pico base station. In this document, R8881 is introduced.
ZTE ZXSDR R8881 (hereinafter referred to as R8881) is a distributed Remote Radio Unit
(RRU) used in ZTE Uni-RAN solution, with 1-way transmitting and 2-way receiving.
R8881 80W works in GSM or UMTS single mode or multi-mode.
Figure 1-1

R8881 Physical Structure
Benefits
R8881 is one of the most widely used remote radio units in ZTE SDR base station series.
The following part lists the key benefits for operators.

High performance
ZTE Confidential & Proprietary
ZXSDR R8881 Product Description
To meet with the growing demands for wide working bandwidth, R8881 modules
with full working bandwidth are released. Maximum working bandwidth of R8881 is
75MHz for 1800M band and 35MHz for 900M band. For frequency spectrums
become scarce, resources allocated for operators tend to be characterized with
fragmentation and large span. RRUs with full working bandwidth integrate more
spectrum resources and help to decrease hardware investment exponentially. (This
is the maximum bandwidth of the RF modules. Please make the actual module as
the standard.)

Clearer and simpler network
R8881 supports GSM, UMTS, or mixed technologies. Instead of running hardware
on independent platforms for each technology, operators can implement various
wireless technologies in software on the same hardware platform.
Since hardware platforms can be reused, there is significantly less investment risk
for deploying hardware. Wireless technologies are developing so fast, and investing
on one technology may bring risks to operators. SDR-based solutions will decrease
the investment risk since SDR platform can support various technologies.

High PA Efficiency, Low Power Consumption
The PA of R8881 achieves high efficiency with ZTE patent Doherty, Digital
Pre-Distortion (DPD) and Dynamic Power Trace (D-PT) technologies. The PA
power supply voltage is dynamically adapted to the output power, reducing RU’s
power consumption.
1.3
Application Scenarios
The R8881s and one base band unit (BBU) form a complete BTS/NodeB. It implements
radio transmission in the covered area, controls radio channels and communicates with
the Base Station Controller (BSC/RNC). It supports indoor and outdoor applications.

Warning and Note
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radiofrequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
