Technical Features – Continued

What is DPCT?
What is DDT?
What is Four Way Diversity ??
Summary -

 Reducing CAPEX
 Powerful coverage capability

 The big power output helps improve and extend the coverage area of the base station
as well as keep the number of sites to the minimum, saving the costs for main
equipment and supplementary resources.

 Net Speed technology to increase coverage and data qualities

 DDT can increase network coverage without increasing power output; improve Mobile
Station (MS) receiving sensitivity and network capacity; and reduce the costs of network
optimization.

 4-way receive diversity can be used to achieve additional uplink gain, and reduce MS
transmit power while boosting battery life. Dual Power Combining Transmission (DPCT)
is another technique to decrease CAPEX. In the initial network construction period,
DPCT can provide about 3dB transmit gain to extend the coverage area; the dual-
density TRX can be used as two TRX units to solve the capacity problem as traffic
grows.
Summary – Continued
 Powerful Abis interface transmission technologies to save transport resources

 Dynamic Abis means that time slots are dynamically mapped between the radio
channel and E1 channel at the Abis interface instead of being defined by Operation &
Maintenance Center-Radio (OMC-R), thus enabling more efficient use of Abis time
slots when packet-based services continue to grow.
 Abis compression technology can achieve an industrial leading 15:1 compression
ratio, which means one E1 supports 15 TRXs transfers in the Abis interface. (*ring)
 Abis over IP enables operators to use IP networks to connect the BSC and BTSs,
thereby saving on transport facility and reducing CAPEX. This technique also
supports capacity expansion as IP networks offer high bandwidth.
 If 4-way receive diversity is performed in conjunction with either the DPCT or DDT
technique, a BTS can provide ultra-far coverage area.
Summary – Continued
 Reducing OPEX
 Lower power consumption and OPEX
For operators, power consumption reduction in base stations is an increasingly important
consideration as it means lowered cost, smaller heat dissipation and improved reliability.
With no air conditioning necessary and lower power consumption, the ZXG10 8000 series
BTSs can decrease site OPEX to new levels.

 Small size and light weight, allowing easy installation

Intelligent BTS shutdown

 Under low traffic conditions, some TRX units can be shut down to save on power
consumption costs. The BTS will detect the power supply, and some TRX units will be
closed to extend battery service run time when the remaining battery power is lower than the
preset value.
 Universal TRX module and control board
DTRU, main control and channel processing modules can be used in both indoor and
outdoor BTSs. These universal modules help lower the expenses for spare parts, as well as
the maintenance and networking costs.

The product successfully passed the CE certification. It complies with international standards
related to personal safety, electromagnetic security (EMC) and wireless frequency spectrum.
RF Indices

 Output power-ZXG10 8018 supports 40W power for 8PSK and 60W for GMSK
 Static sensitivity-the static receiving sensitivity of ZXG10 8018 reaches up to -112
dbm. The high sensitivity guarantees the uplink channel performance and is one of
the prerequisites for a wide coverage
Working Modes
Work Mode Description

Dual carrier mode No Four-way diversity configuration, no DPCT setting

configuration. DTRU can configure both the left and the
right sub boards.

Odd carrier modes Odd carrier with 4-way diversity Only configure Four-way diversity. DTRU only configures the left
reception sub board, and the right sub board has no data
configuration.

Odd carrier with 4-way diversity Four-way diversity plus DPCT. DTRU only configures the left
reception and DPCT sub boards, and the right sub board has no data
configuration.

Odd carrier No Four-way diversity, no DPCT setting. DTRU only configures

the left sub board, and the right sub board has no data
configuration.
