As viewed from the network architecture and application networking, mobile WiMAX
(IEEE 802.16e) is essentially a cellular network oriented to broadband data transmission
and is used to implement certain mobility. WiMAX advocates broadband mobile services
to implement broadband access at a lower cost, thus allowing the users in hotspot or
suburban areas to enjoy the convenience of mobile broadband. Figure 3 depicts the
schematic diagram of the WiMAX network.

Figure 5 Distributed Network Structure
At present, network construction faces two challenges: (1) take measures to save
equipment room construction investment and shorten construction time, and (2) as
frequencies increase, the use of traditional indoor macro BS mode results in the large
RF cable loss. Therefore, the radio BS design trends to separate the digital baseband
part from the RF part, which is call RRU + BBU structure.
This document is primarily oriented toward the centralized network structure and
introduces the remote RF unit in this network structure.

The RRU is a piece of important equipment in distributed BS networking. It implements

the RF functions of the baseband-RF interface and the R1 interface. It is located near
the antenna port.
ZXMBW R9100 is one of ZTE’s macro cellular coverage RRU products. Its position in
the system is shown in Figure 6.

• Forward service
The CSN signal is sent to the BBU through the AGW. The BBU is responsible for
encoding and modulation of the signal. After that, the signal is sent to the R9100s
through fiber-optical. After the R9100s perform IQ modulation, up-conversion, and
power amplification, the signal is sent to the MSs through the antennas.
• Reverse service
The MS signal is received by the R9100s through the antennas. The R9100s
perform down-conversion and IQ demodulation for the signal. Then the signal is
sent to the BBU through the fiber-optical for decoding and demodulation. After that,
the signal is sent to the CSN through the AGW.

During the test, the FER in the forward/backward link is less than or equal to 1%.
At the end of the test, the EUT can still work in the designated mode, the user
control function is still valid, the stored data are complete, and the communication
link still remains.
If the EUT is a pure transmitter, the test shall be carried out in idle mode, and the
EUT shall not have unintentional radiation during the test.
• Performance criterion B (transient phenomenon)
A communication link shall be set up at the start of the test.
During the test covering series or individual ports, the EUT can still work in the
preset mode, the user control function is still valid and the stored data are still
complete, and the communication link still remains.
If the EUT is a pure transmitter, the test shall be carried out in idle mode, and the
EUT shall not have unintentional radiation during the test.
• Performance criterion C (interruption)

That the function is temporarily invalid is allowed. The specified function can be self-
recovered, or recovered by the operator or by sequential normal operations.
• Performance criterion R (resistibility)
The device should be able to endure the test, without any damage or other
interference (such as software damage or mistake operation of fault protection
device). At the end of transient phenomenon, the device properly runs within the
specified range (it is not required to run properly during the test process). The
interference may result in actions of fuse or other specified devices, but the fuse
shall not be broken or the devices shall not be reset before the system returns to
normal.
7.3 Security Indexes

ZXMBW-R9100 is compliant with EN60950 and UL1950 standards. The parts not
mentioned in this file are compliant with EN60950.
• Marks
The board connectors/plugs, jumpers, switches and test point, the power supply
and the ground are marked clearly, without obstacles of components, including fuse
mark, protection ground mark, warning label, power label, laser label, safety label,
energy label and heavy module label. All the marks meet the requirements of safety
codes of China or the purchasing country (region). All the marks are clear, complete,
easy to understand, and not erasable.
• Overturn protection
The rack is arranged symmetrically to enhance the stability of the equipment

provided that the performance indices and heat design requirements are met. In
normal conditions, the equipment will not turn over at a plane tilted at 10 degrees.
The shell stands external hit.
The rack and the shelf are fixed reliably and are not loose.
• Fire protection
The shell of the BSS, PCB board, cables, power cables that are related to the anti-
fire regulations use the inflammable materials. The combustion time after these
materials are lit is compliant with the safety standards. The circuit design takes
over-current and over-voltage protections into account to prevent overhead caused
by normal or faulty conditions. There are fuss and anti-arc resistor protection in the
power supply to further prevent overheat and fire caused by shorted circuit. The
overall design ensures that the internal flame will not extend to the shell, that is, the
shell isolates the fire.
• Mechanical and physical damage
There are no sharp edges, angles, or burrs. There are no mechanical structure
defects or technical procedure problems that would lead to human damage.
• Lightning protection

The system has anti-lightning measures. The working ground and the protection
ground are reliable and the grounding resistance of the protection ground is less
than 10 ohm. The protective grounding terminals are capable of anti-erosion. The
grounding cable is 8AWG in size. The insulation layer of the grounding cables is in
yellow/green. The bolt that connects the protection ground and the shell (or PCB)
has a tooth washer to make the protection ground more reliably connected.
• Components/devices and materials requirements
During the product design, the selection of materials and devices is compliant with
UL (or CSA) and VDE (or TUV, NEMKO, and SEMKO) certification. These devices
are:
PCB board, fuse, and fuse socket, EMI capacitor, photocoupler, relay, power switch,
voltage-selective switch, cables, AC input socket, rheostat, insulation washer and
insulation tube, NTC thermistor, plastic materials of the product, connectors, laser
module, power module, transformer, fans, and voltage-sensitive resistor (TVS).
• Protective grounding and connection requirements
The protective grounding symbol is near the first protective grounding of the
equipment and is easy to see after the PCB is assembled.
The protection grounding terminal does not have switch or over-current protection
device.
The protection grounding cable is in yellow/green.
The design of the protection ground ensures that connecting the protection
grounding first when accessing the power supply and disconnecting the protection
grounding last when shutting off the power supply.
The design ensures that it is unnecessary to disconnect the protection grounding

with the dangerous voltage connected during maintenance.
The implementation of the protection grounding function does not depend on the
telecommunication network.
• IP Protection Class
The IP protection class is IP65.
• Environmental impact
The equipment uses materials that do not product gases that harm either human
beings or the atmosphere or the environment.
The noise produced by the ventilation fan of the equipment will not cause harmful
disturbances to the technicians.
The spurious emission produced by the equipment body or the spurious conduction
caused by the antenna port will not harm the technicians or the environment.
