Chapter 1 System Overview
1.1 Purpose of this document
This chapter contains description of Hyundai Micro-BTS PCS System that is operating on 800MHz and 1.9GHz frequency band, repectively.
1.2 Features of Hyundai CDMA System
There are two sub-systems in Hyundai CDMA system ; Micro-BTS and BSC. BSC interfaces with switching equipment and has roles of vocoding and call processing. Micro­BTS is functionally located between MS (Mobile Station) and BSC. Hyundai Micro-BTS has channel resource unit and radio frequency RF unit similar to the conventional 3-Sector BTS. Contrary to conventional 3-Sector BTS, Hyundai Micro-BTS is small in size, easily can be installed and maintained, and is very cheap in cost.
1.3 Overview
Hyundai Micro-BTS system can support 2FA/3Sector using 2 racks, but Micro-BTS system is composed of 1FA/3sector system for the FCC authorization. Thus this manual will describe all of the specifications based on 1FA/3sector system.
The system configuration is shown in Figure 1.1. In this configuration, there are 1 BSC and 3 Micro-BTS systems. Each Micro-BTS system is separately located in 3 sites. Micro-BTS can use 2 types of antenna subsystem, RRU (Remote RF Unit) and AAU (Active Antenna Unit). RRU is connected to Micro-BTS main system through AIU (Antenna Interface Unit) and AAU through AIDU (Active Internal Distribution Unit). In case of trunk line, we have several solutions, T1 and E1. We use T1 trunk line in USA. It means that we do not use HLEA but HLTA as trunk card.
BSM manages and maintains Micro-BTS and BSC. It communicates with each system by transmitting and receiving packets through LCIN. Its features include performance management, configuration management, fault management, etc..

3.1.6 Operations of “Alarm” window
Alarm window displays the fault status of each subsystem in the system. It uses several colors to report the status of system to the operator efficiently and effectively in the window with text message. So, you can understand easily in overall of system.
3.1.6.1 Types of Alarm Displays
The fault that operators take action rapidly must create the alarms. There are three types of alarms as follows:
(1) Audible alarm – outputs the voice and sound alarms through the speaker. (2) Visible alarm – outputs the colorful alarm display through the monitor. (3) Alarm message – outputs the text alarm messages in the output window.
3.1.6.2 Grades of Alarms
(1) Normal alarm
This represents a normal status of subsystem and BSM displays this status with green
color.
(2) Critical alarm
This grade of alarm is critical to the system. So, this alarm is required to take
emergency actions for the fault status with no regard to the occurrence time of fault. BSM displays these alarms with red color.
(3) Major alarm
This grade of alarm has an effect on services of system. It represents the fault status
or malfunction of main circuits. These faults are reported to operator immediately and enable him to diagnose the functions of system or to recover the errors. The priority of this alarm is not prior to that of critical alarm. So, this alarm effects on the performance of the system directly or steadily (Orange).
(4) Minor alarm
This grade of alarm has a little effect on services of the system or subscribers. That is,
this alarm hardly effects on the functions of call processing. The priority of this alarm
User’s Manual
is lowest (Yellow).
(5) Not Configured / Not Equip
This grade of alarm is not equipped to devices or cards (Gray).
3.1.6.3 The method of alarm detection
If the system reports the alarms to the operator and BSM, BSM displays the alarm status to the corresponding location in BSM using colors according to the grade of alarm.
3.1.6.4 Main window of subsystems

3.2 System Status Management
3.2.1 System Status Test
BSC system may always audit and monitor processor status, alarm status, channel and link status whether the call is normal. If the status is abnormal or system has a certain fault, BSC system may take an action and then maintain the active status of system.
3.2.1.1 Alarm Test
(1) Alarm Monitoring
1) If the BSC system is an abnormal status or makes a certain fault, system may be alerting the alarms. So, it must maintain the audible or visible alarm status in order to output and create an alarm.
2) If you inhibited the audible or visible alarm, you must be always aware of not outputting those alarms when the system is an abnormal status or a fault.
3) In reporting alarms to the system, it outputs the content of alarm and it checks the corresponding block automatically. So, it solves the problems to the reported alarm.
4) You input a command of outputting alarm status and verify whether the alarm is occurred.
(2) Alarm Test
1) You enable the system to output the alarm messages created until now.
C1004 DIS-ALM-STS:[BSC=aa[,BCP=bb],BTS=cc]; aa : BSC ID bb : BCP ID cc : BTS ID
You make sure of the number of alarm messages in the corresponding block.
2) You are able to output the alarm message information and then confirm the
corresponding alarms.
C1006 DIS-ALM-INFO:AN=aa; aa : Alarm Number ( 0000 - 9999 )
In the output messages, you confirm the contents of alarms and check the
corresponding block. You have to take an action for the corresponding block in order to solve the alarm status.
3) You verify to the inhibited output messages of a lot of alarm messages.
C1007 DIS-INH-ALM;
User’s Manual
In this case, alarm code is not included in the output message.
4) You can change the alarm message generation mode. So, you can confirm to the alarm messages occurred.
C1000 ALW-ALM-MSG:AN=aa; aa : Alarm Code Number ( 0000 - 9999 )
You verify whether the alarm of inhibited output is not included on checking the corresponding devices.
3.2.1.2 Fault Test
(1) Fault Audit
1) You always verify whether the fault is occurred according to the corresponding system devices.
2) You must audit if the status of channel or link is blocked. So, you manage these resources and then maintain them to the normal states for efficient call processing.
3) You check or audit the output alarm messages and verify if the corresponding
devices are faults or abnormal.
(2) Fault Test for the listed items
1) You make sure whether the channel or link is blocked.
C3306 DIS-OOS-STS:BSC=aa,[BCP=bb,]DEV=cc,TYPE=dd; aa : BSC ID bb : BCP ID cc : DEVICE TYPE ( SVE/MLNK/BLNK/TCE ) dd : Type ( MBLK/FBLK/TBLK )
2) You verify which fault message is inhibited.
C1008 DIS-INH-FLT;
User’s Manual
The code of inhibiting message dose not report to the system.
3) When you want to print the inhibited fault message, you must release the messages that cannot print or report to the system. Therefore, you have to allow the messages to print.
C1002 ALW-FLT-MSG:FN=aa; aa : Fault CodeNumber ( 0000 - 9999 )
3.2.1.3 Test for control of processor status
(1) The status audit of processor
1) You always verify whether the status of processors is normal.
2) You change the status of stand-by processor to active processor and verify if the status of this processor is normal or abnormal.
3) If the status of processor is abnormal, you have to repair it rapidly.
4) For the processor is the main part of system, you have to maintain that one or more
User’s Manual
than processor is normal at least.
(2) Status test of processor
1) You verify if the status of CCP in the system is normal.
C3001 DIS-CCP-STS:[BSC=aa]; aa : BSC ID
If you don’t input the corresponding BSC ID, you can verify the statues of all
CCPs.
2) After you check and verify the status of processors, you switch over the status of processor.
C2012 SWT-PRC:BSC=aa,PROC=CCP; aa : BSC ID
You check the output message and verify if CCP is switched over in that message.
After the processor is switched over, you verify if its status is normal. If the system does not have a standby processor, that is, it has only one processor, this command is unable to be executed.
3) You verify the status of SIP in the system.
C3002 DIS-SIP-STS:BSC=aa; aa : BSC ID
4) You check the status of SVP in the system.
C3003 DIS-SVP-STS:BSC=aa,[SIP=bb]; aa : BSC ID bb : SIP ID
5) You verify the status of ACP in the system.

3.2.2 System Diagnosis
Diagnosis is the testing of resources that are closely related to call processing in operating the system and its results is reported to the operators. If its results are abnormal, you exclude this resource for the service of call process. If the resource of call process is recoverable, you enable this resource to use the call services or to add the resource pool of system immediately.
3.2.2.1 Diagnosis of vocoder
(1) Diagnostic method
User’s Manual
There are four diagnostic methods of vocoder: Polling, Code compare, physical test, and algorithm test.
1) Polling
You use this method to initialize the SVE(DSP) which is requested to diagnose. As
a result of its response, you can verify or check the status of vocoder.
2) Code Compare This diagnostic method uses the result that the system compares the original DSP
code in VSOA-A1’s DRAM to the code in DSP’s SRAM. If the system starts to diagnose the vocoders, it compares the code of vocoder
requested which is the code of SRAM in the DSP module with that of normal vocoder which is the code of DRAM in VSOA-A1.
If the result of comparing the codes is identical, system may initialize the
vocoder. If the system receives acknowledgment from vocoder, system regards this vocoder as normal. Otherwise, system decides that the status of vocoder itself is abnormal.
If the result of comparing the codes is not same, system loads the normal code
to the DSP’s SRAM and replaces the code of SRAM. Then, system compares the codes again. If the result of comparing the codes also is not same, system decides the SRAM-related error.
If the result of comparing as above is same, system sends the initialization
message to the vocoder again and then waits for its response.
If the system receives the response for the message of initialization, this
response represents that the abnormal vocoder changes to the normal one again. Otherwise, system decides that the status of vocoder is abnormal.
3) Physical Test (Will be implemented) It tests the state of the internal ALU and RAM of DSP.
4) Algorithm Test (Will be implemented)
User’s Manual
As it cmopares the the test tone in DSP with the encoding and decoding data using the vocoder algorithm pointed by the operator, you can check the state of the vocoder algorithm
5) All Test (Will be implemented) It stops disgnosting in the step if it detecs the error diagnosting the vocoder as the
following sequence ; Code compare Physical test Algorithm test.
User’s Manual
(2) Diagnostic Test
1) You can use the following command to verify the status of vocoder.
C3004 DIS-SVE-STS:BSC=a,SIP=b[,SVP=c]; a : BSC Id b : SIP Id c : SVP Id
2) Next, you test the vocoder using the following command.
C4017 TST-SVE:BSC=a,SIP=b[,SVP=c,SVE=d],LEVEL=e,ALGORITHM=f; a : BSC Id b : SIP Id c : SVP Id d : SVE Id e : Test Level (POLL_TST/CODE_CMP/PHYSICAL_TST/ALGORITHM_TST/ALL) f : Vocoder algorithm (QCELP_8K/QCELP_13K/EVRC)
User’s Manual
(3) Inter-working with call processing
1) For vocoder is related with call processing directly, you can confirm enough to diagnose the status of it.
2) In case of maintaining call, system decides on the normal state of vocoder. System need not to diagnose, and reports the “BUSY” state to the operators.
3) If the vocoder is idle, system changes its state to test block (T_BLK) in order not to use this resource not to set a call on diagnosing. And then, system enters to diagnose.
4) After the diagnosis end up, system changes the state to idle and is able to use or set a call service.
(4) Analysis for result of diagnosis
1) As a result of polling, vocoder sends VOC_OK/VOC_NOK to the system. If the system is not able to receive the response normally, it decides on the abnormal state of vocoder.
User’s Manual
2) The response of comparing to code of memory is composed to three messages: VOC_OK, VOC_NOK, and RAM_ERROR. If the code is normal or system does not receive the response, system decides that DSP chip is abnormal or makes a problem. If the vocoders do not load normally to DSP chip, system decides that the problem results from the error of SRAM or DSP chip.
1)
(note
3)
4) The vocoder reports the result of Algorithm test to VOC_OK|FREG_ERR|GAIN_
The vocoder reports the result of Physical test to VOC_OK|ALU_ERR|DSP_ RAM_ERR|RAM/ALU_ERR. ALU_ERR is the error in the arithmetic or register and DSP_RAM_ERR is the error in RAM of DSP. RAM/ALU_ERR is the error
ERR|FREQ/GAIN_ERR. FREQ_ERR is the error for the frequency deviation exceeding the reference value after the generated signal encoding and decoding. GAIN_ERR is the error for the energy deviation exceeding the reference value after the generated signal encoding and decoding. FREQ/GAIN_ERR is the error for occurring both FREQ_ERR and GAIN_ERR.
5) The result of All test is reported all the case for 2) ~ 4).
6) If the error except the result of the seccsion 1) ~ 4), for example, NRSP_SVE| VOC_BUSY|ALRDY_TEST|VOC_NEQ|NRSP_SVP, is reported, it is the result of the abnormal diagnostic test. NRSP_SVE is the no responce of the vocoder and VOC_BUSY is the case that the vocoder does not carry out the diagnostic order. ALRDY_TEST is the case that the vocoder is executing other diagnostic command and VOC_NEQ is the case that the vocoder is not equipped yet. NRSP_SVP is the case that it can’t execute the order because of SVP no response.
3.2.2.2 Diagnosis of HRNA
(1) Diagnostic method
The diagnosis of HRNA’s Node is executed by HICA. There are two methods of diagnoses – Polling and Self Test – but both methods are concurrently executed.
1) Polling
1)
(note
3) ~ 6) will be implemented ASAP.
HICA sends polling messages to each of nodes which interfaces with processors.
As a response of several polling messages, HICA reports the status of nodes to the system.
2) Self Test
Without having response to polling, HICA enters to the self test and system verifies the minimum status of node. This test can be only used to setting to alarm mask in case of not connecting to the processors. Self Test is the test which is a loop-back test for the Tx and Rx of node.
(2) Diagnostic test
1) You can verify the status of HRNA using the following command.
C3204 DIS-GCIN-NODE; C3205 DIS-LCIN-NODE:BSC=a; C3206 DIS-BIN-NODE:{BSC=a,BCP=b};
{BTS=c} a : BSC Id b : BCP Id c : BTS Id
User’s Manual
2) You can use the following command to test and diagnose the node of HRNA.
C4016 TST-HRNA:DEV=a,{BSC=b,BCP=c,}HRNA=e,NODE=f;
{BTS=d,} a : Test HRNA Type (GCIN/LCIN/BIN) b : BSC Id c : BCP Id d : BTS Id e : HRNA Id f : HRNA NODE
(3) Analysis for the result of diagnosis
1) For the diagnosis of node is composed of one network unlike another test, this test is impossible to test, after excluding the call services.
2) The diagnostic result of node represents OK or NOK. This result is meaningful for
User’s Manual
the only node that connects to the corresponding device, because this is capable of self-test.
3.2.2.3 Diagnosis of BTS-link
(1) Diagnostic method
The diagnosis of B-link is executed by HICA. There are three type of tests : node test, local loop-back test and remote loop-back test. This test is able to execute all tests concurrently at once and you can verify the overall status of B-link by executing concurrently.
1) Test method of node
This is a loop-back test for the node of HNTA.
2) Method of local loop-back test
You enable this loop-back test in the T1 FRAMER of HNTA which controls to the
mechanical links to check the data returned from HICA.
3) Method of remote loop-back test This is executed by HICA, which is a part of LCIN and exchanges messages or
sends/receives the data. First, HICA connects to the Rx and Tx of HNTA’s T1 FRAMER in peer BIN and then starts to the loop-back mode test. After diagnosing, HICA changes diagnostic mode to the original test mode.
(2) Diagnostic test
1) You use the following command to verify the status of BTS-link.
C3007 DIS-BLNK-STS:{BSC=a,BCP=b};
{BTS=c} a : BSC Id b : BCP Id c : BTS Id
