Agenda
2. xCEM Engineering
3. xCEM Order Information 4. iCEM/xCEM Configuration 5. New Features related to xCEM
Why xCEM ?
xCEM is next generation of Channel Element Module board for Alcatel-Lucent macro Node-B, substituting existing iCEM R99, HSDPA & HSUPA support provided on one module Actual capacity increase even more significant with Multi-mode BBU in UA06 Compatible with existing macro iBTS cabinets and modules xCEM BBU

xCEM H-BBU moved to xCEM for increased capacity. More DCH CE managed by iCEM. HSDPA can be activated on F2
Initial Tx power PCQI is given by a hard-coded LUT using the CQI and the mean square error of the CQI, i.e. PCQI = LUT(CQI, MSE(CQI))
MSE takes the channel variations into account
PC on max 1.63 %
E-AGCH power control becomes critical as more than one E-AGCH and 2 ms TTI will be supported in UA06. Moreover larger HSUPA mobile penetration will be available
