1.3.1. Base Station Radio (BSR)
The BSR is an outdoor radio unit, typically mounted on a pole or wall, involved in
providing a wireless link between the Base Station and subscribers. The standard
BSR provides 60-degree radio coverage, serving up to 126 subscribers in a sector.
For Base Stations consisting of multiple BSRs, the BSRs are powered, and interface
with the provider's backbone by the ASWipLL Base Station Distribution Unit
(BSDU). For a Base Station consisting of a single BSR, the BSR is typically
powered and connected to the provider's backbone by the ASWipLL Subscriber
Data Adapter (SDA).
1.3.2. Point-to-Point Radio (PPR)
The PPR device is similar to the BSR, but implemented in a point-to-point radio
configuration, providing wireless communication with a single remote subscriber
ASWipLL radio unit (i.e. SPR or IDR).
