1 Chapter GENERAL OVERVIEW WipLL is a broadband fixed cellular Wireless Access system. It provides an "all-inone" broadband access solution for operators and network service providers supporting data applications including "toll quality" telephony service1 over a single integrated platform. WipLL utilizes air protocol that enables one of WipLL's unique features - the ability to recognize the type of the transmission and assign bandwidth and other resources accordingly.
WipLL System Description Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Subscriber Site Base Station Site Base Station Site Base Station Site Base Station Site Non WLL Users Non IP Systems Network Operating Centre Figure 1-1: Typical Wipll System Partitioning WipLL provides a radio link between the end-user of the telecom network (the subscriber) and the network itself to give high-speed data access.
Chapter 1 - GENERAL OVERVIEW through radio to its local base station. The base station then links through an Ethernet connection to datacom or IP network. Each local base station serves numerous subscribers in its vicinity. The WipLL components at the subscribers' premises and at the base stations can be remotely controlled and configured by a management system using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Figure 1-2 shows a diagram of a Typical WipLL installation.
WipLL System Description Voice over IP 1.1. Components of the System The WipLL system comprises three main components as indicated in Figure 1-1: 1) Subscriber site 2) Base station 3) Coverage 1.1.1. The Subscriber Site Each subscriber site contains Subscriber Premises Equipment (SPE) that links the subscriber to the WipLL system.
Chapter 1 - GENERAL OVERVIEW The following drawing shows a current typical subscriber site installation: SPR Subscriber Adapter Video Conferencing Figure 1-3: Typical Subscriber Configuration 1.1.2. Base Station Components Each base station site contains several components that enable: Connection to telecom system Internal switching of traffic Power supply Radio communications.
WipLL System Description BSR BSR BSR BSR BSR BSR 48 VDC 10 base-T BSDU Management Power Supply 100 base-T Wide Area Network Connection DS1 DS3 ATM Other Figure 1-4: Base Station Units A BSR can maintain a 4 Mbit air link with customers in its sector (net throughput of 3.2 Mb/s). A single base station has a capacity of up to 96 Mb/s and can support up to 3024 customer sites.
Chapter 1 - GENERAL OVERVIEW The BSR can transmit and receive through a 60 degree sector. To cover a full 360 degree sweep, requires six BSRs at the base station which will comprise six sectors each covered by a BSR. o 60 sector Area covered by the base station = Base Station Radio (BSR) Figure 1-5: Base Station Covering 360° Not all six sectors need be equipped.
WipLL System Description o 60 sector = Base Station Radio (BSR) Figure 1-7: Base Station with Complete BSR Redundancy Alternatively, the base station can have up to twenty-four BSRs, each covering 60 degrees. This allows either: Complete BSR redundancy with two or more BSRs covering each sector - see Figure 1-7 or Partial sector overlap with each layer of BSRs offset to the one above it - see Figure 1-8. This gives more capacity in areas where high demand requires more bandwidth.
Chapter 1 - GENERAL OVERVIEW Figure 1-8: Base Station Sector 1.2. Management, and Commissioning WipLL uses two tools for management and commissioning both implemented as software programs: The WipLL network management tool - WipManage WipConfig Further information on the use of these tools can be found in the Operations and Maintenance Manual.
WipLL System Description 1.2.1. WipManage WipManage™ is the primary WipLL network management tool for every WipLL unit. It enables: Configuration Fault isolation Performance monitoring Software upgrade WipManage can access each unit in the system and manage it remotely using standard SNMP protocols for communicating with the WipLL unit, private and standard MIBs for setting and retrieving parameters from the units.
Chapter 1 - GENERAL OVERVIEW Use of inputs from either a .CFG file that is produced by a database application or manually by typing the parameters into the appropriate fields of the program. Configuration and monitoring of the WipLL units via a serial or Ethernet port. It supports Microsoft Windows 9x and Windows 2000 platforms.

2 Chapter MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS The WipLL system is designed to provide internet access and telephony service using spread spectrum frequency hopping technology to minimize interference in the 2.4 GHz ISM, 3.5 GHz band, and 4GHz bands Data is transmitted as Internet Protocol (IP) packets. Each packet is divided into fragments, and fragments can be repeated several times to ensure Quality of Service (QoS). Other techniques such as CRC and space diversity further enhance the system performance.
WipLL System Description Leverages new technologies and applications. Built-in security features. 2.1.2. Operator Perspective Very efficient network due to: Single access platform for multiple applications. Bandwidth used only when there is real data to transmit. Shared bandwidth between users. No dedicated bandwidth to customer but capabilities to ensure throughput to the users. Uncommitted direction of transmission, no need to commit to full duplex.
Chapter 2 - MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS 2.1.5. Configuration Integrated IP router. Single outdoor box solution, i.e. no external SPR antennas or RF cables. Up to 100 meters of standard category 5 cable from the radio unit to the indoor adapter. Standard 10Base-T interface to the subscriber site and 100Base-T interface to the network backbone. 2.1.6. Installation and Commissioning Easy installation and commissioning – using the WipConfig tool. Real time signal strength indication.
WipLL System Description • All installed units are installed with a separation distance of at least 2 meters from all person during normal operation. • Both the BSR and SPR (as well as antenna) must be mechanically and electronically isolated from and not co-located with any other antenna or transmitter. 2.1.7. Security Login process with authentication mechanism. Data scrambling using public and private keys. 2.1.8.
Chapter 2 - MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS 2.1.9. Radio Communications Frequency hopping spread spectrum system (FH-CDMA). Integrated antenna diversity in a single box. The BSR also has an N-Type connector for attaching an optional 3rd-party external antenna i.e. omni-antenna for 360º coverage by a single BSR.1 Variety of antenna types, internal and external. Configurable maximum output power – up to 27dBm.
WipLL System Description Software upgrade of every WipLL unit using TFTP. Support for standard IP protocols – ARP, DHCP relay, TFTP, ICMP, and SNMP. 2.1.11. System Parameters Temperature range of –30ºC to +60ºC. Compliance with ETSI and FCC Regulations. 2.1.12. RF This environment consists of point to multi-point directional antennas pointing towards the base station. Distances between stations and the base station may differ. Some may be near while others may be far away.
Chapter 2 - MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS Allowed packet loss rate that applications can sustain. Bandwidth for the application - video requires constant signal flow: Packets are generated usually every 30ms. (depending on the Residential Access Gateway (RAG) and sampling rate) Requires minimal delay. Silence suppression – no packets 2.2. PPMA Protocol This section describes the Pre-emptive Polling Multiple Access (PPMA) protocol.
WipLL System Description From time to time (and not exceeding every 100mS) the BSR sends a "Channel Clear" message which is an invitation for SPRs to send the score of their requirements. It then waits for a while and receives these requirements from the SPRs. The waiting time is called Slotted Aloha due to the fact that the BSR waits for a time that is equivalent to 16 messages of "Request to Send" (RTS).
Chapter 2 - MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS Polling of SPRs can happen according to the information gathered during the Slotted Aloha process or in a periodic manner – every few milliseconds – regardless of the Slotted Aloha process depending on the application transmitting data at the time. The polling sequence of data applications is managed by the BSR based on the information gathered during the Slotted Aloha process.
WipLL System Description of users, etc. The SPR then sends its own information to the BSR. It is then considered as being "associated" with the BSR and can start sending and receiving messages from it. In case the SPR is not included in the "Allowed SPR" list or the address it provides for the BSR is incorrect no message will be sent to it and the association process will be terminated. 2.4.
Chapter 2 - MAIN FEATURES, PROTOCOL AND QoS 5) Session type - VoIP 2.5. Echo Management Packet based systems are likely to introduce more delay (and variable) than circuit switched systems. Increased delay could present quality problems with time bounded services such as voice communication.
WipLL System Description PSTN has traditionally been a low delay network and has not bothered with echo cancellation, at least in smaller countries, if the round trip delay is below 50ms. Echo cancellers are used in international calls between different PSTNs. The key principle is that the network that causes the echo should cancel it. Applying this principle to the introduction of IP based WLL systems means that echo should be handled in the access system.
3 Chapter APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES WipLL can be installed in several configurations to support different required applications. The following paragraphs discuss some of the applications and services that can be provided with WipLL. 3.1. Applications 3.1.1. Fixed Cellular Access System Typically WipLL is used as a broadband fixed wireless access system.
WipLL System Description Figure 3-1: WipLL Cell Subscriber Premises Radios (SPRs) are normally installed on a rooftop or a wall which has a direct line of sight to the base station radio (BSR) and are pointed towards the nearest base station or the base station that was assigned according to the pre-planning of the site. Base stations typically contain several BSRs for providing a full (360º) coverage as well as enough capacity to accommodate the requirements of subscribers.
Chapter 3 - APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES Important!! o BSR-2.4 and SPR-2.4 outdoor units with internal antennas should be installedONLY by experienced installation professionals who are familiar with localbuilding and safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities. Failure to do so may void theMARCONI product warranty and may expose the end user or the service providerto legal and financial liabilities.
WipLL System Description Figure 3-2: WipLL Coverage Planning 3.1.3. Remote Base Station Backhaul Occasionally, when base stations are providing services to a small number of subscribers or when large capacity is not required, WipLL SPRs and BSRs can be used for backhauling. Such configurations can be considered in most cases as a point-to-point (PTP) connection.
Chapter 3 - APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES Figure 3-3 shows a typical backhauling of a base station using WipLL. Figure 3-3: WipLL Backhauling Remote base stations are typically required when the main base station sites cannot cover an area due to lack of line-of-sight or when the distance exceeds the capability of the radios to provide services. It is recommended that a maximum of two hops be used between a main base station and a subscriber site.
WipLL System Description 3.1.3.1. Indoor Coverage (Not for use in North America) In many applications there is a need to provide access to users located in the lower floors of a building. These users usually do not have a direct line-of-sight with a base station. WipLL can be used for indoor coverage for apartment buildings and office areas.
Chapter 3 - APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES 3.2. Services 3.2.1. Broadband Data Access Using a standard PSTN modem in circuit-switched networks customers are limited to 56Kbps of throughput and in most cases to 28.8Kbps. From the operator's perspective once a customer has dialed with a PSTN modem a full 128Kbps channel is occupied for as long as the session lasts. With WipLL customers are limited only by configuration, with a maximum of 4Mbps, 50 times faster than the fastest PSTN modem.
WipLL System Description WipLL can also distinguish between applications and users, thus enabling the operator to provide different class of service to users. For example, it can provide different services to web browsing and email, prioritizing web browsing for ensuring best "Internet experience". 3.2.3. Private Networks WipLL allows the configuration for providing connectivity to branch offices.
Chapter 3 - APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES 3.2.4. Remote Access WipLL is very suitable for tele-workers who require high speed access combined with private network and flexible configuration. The interface to the system is 10Base-T and enables seamless configuration between office and remote location. 3.2.5.

8 Chapter Chapter BSPS The Marconi Base Station Power System (BSPS) supplies the following: • Provides off-line power to sensitive equipment • Charges the battery bank that provides backup power during a mains failure. Thus, this system is essentially a DC-UPS with a battery connected to it. The size of the battery determines the backup and charging time. Since the system is current limited, the maximum battery size is based on that limit.

Chapter 8 - BSPS 8.5. Basic Rectifier Module The PFC50-6 rectifier module is the heart of the Full-Redundancy 48VDC power system. It is a plugged-in module designed specifically for modular systems. The power factor correction (PFC) device at the input enables clean, stable, sinusoidal current consumption from the mains. This converter produces a 382VDC output, which is then converted to the 50V output. A current sharing circuit is responsible for current sharing among the rectifiers.

Host Communication The detailed protocol of communication is described in section 8.7 Communication Protocol & Data, page 8-14. The RS232 plug, located at the front panel is used for the connection with the host. pin assignment for the DB9 connector is as follows: COM RS232 Tx Rx 5 1 9 6 Figure 8-11: DB9 Connector 8.7.
Chapter 8 - BSPS 9) Upon a reception of a header start (0xAC) there will be a start of a reception window 500mSec long. In case that a valid packet has been received it will be processed. Otherwise, the controller will initialize the reception counter. This protocol provides the user with the ability of controlling the power system parameters as well as retrieving data and status from the system. 8.7.1. Master The master sends its packet including header, opcode, data, checksum and termination.

WipLL System Description 9.4. Improved Quality of Service (QoS) QoS is the ability to recognize the type of transmission and assign optimal resources accordingly. This is especially important for VoIP applications, that are sensitive to delay and jitter and should therefore be prioritized over other applications. QoS is used for packets leaving the SPRs towards the BSR as well as among SPRs making sure that the BSR assigns the correct priority to the correct SPR. WipLL 1.
Chapter 9 - Appendix that is set to a maximum of 256Kbps can reach a maximum bandwidth significantly larger than the maximum standard bandwidth of an SPR set to a 64Kbps. 9.6. SNMP support for BSDU The BSDU is a major building block in a base station site. As such it is required to be remotely managed by WipManage. As part of release 1.4, WipManage now supports the BSDU that has an SNMP agent and supports Management Information Base II (MIB-II) and private MIB. 9.7.
WipLL System Description range of 192.168.0.0 does not have to change IP addresses in the network when installing WipLL. 9.9. Default configurations via WipConfig & WipManage In order to simplify WipLL’s configuration and installation, release 1.4 provides 2 layers of default configurations for SPRs: 1. Customer defaults – located in ROM and loaded during manufacturing. These parameters are customer specific. 2.
Chapter 9 - Appendix Class B range: 172.16.0.0-172.31.0.0 Class C range: 192.168.1.x-192.168.254.x The advantages of using these numbers on the inside of the firewall are twofold: Internal IP networks can now be “grown” without fear of running out of addresses There is no longer a risk of inadvertantly using other networks’ legitimate addresses. For example, if arbitrarily using the Class C range of 192.31.7.
