Clock Subsystem
GGCU Reference Clock Input To input the active-standby clock of the GGCU, you can use the signals provided by the BITS and the 2.048MHz clock signal extracted from the upper-level clock by the interface panel in the service subrack. The GGCU backplane uses the interface panel of the same subrack to extract the 8 KHz clock

signals from the upper-level clocks.


Reference Clock for the GMPS or GEPS The reference clocks are provided by the GGCU. The reference clocks generate 8kHz clock signals through the GGCU. GMPS: The clock signals are sent to the GSCU in the GMPS subrack through the backplane. Then, the clock signals are sent to other boards in the same subrack. GEPS: The clock signals are sent to the GSCU board in the GEPS subrack through the clock cable. Then, the signals are sent to other boards through the backplane. Reference Clock for the GTCS Each GTCS extracts line clock from the A interface. The link clock is processed through A interface panel and then generates 8 KHz clock signals.

Clock synchronization Interconnection


The connection of the GGCU of the main subrack and the GSCU of the extension subrack is shown as following figure: The active GGCU and the standby GGCU output 10-way signal channel respectively. A signal channel of an active GGCU and that of a standby GGCU are integrated through the Y-shaped cable. Any of component including GGCU, Y-shaped cable, and GSCU is faulty, the system clock still can work normally. The Y-shaped cable can ensure the switchover of the GGCU, which does not affect the GSCU to receive clock.

Configuration for the Clock in the GGCU


Configuration for the clock in the GGCU: If there is no BITS, extract the synchronization reference clock from the interface board of main subrack, so that the synchronization reference clock can be sent to the GGCU through the backplane. Other distribution cables are not required. In this case, the GGCU chooses the clock reference of backplane. If BITS is available, the GGCU should be equipped with distribution cables. If other synchronization reference clocks are required, the GGCU chooses line clock and BITS clock as the clock reference. It uses the BITS first.

Signal Flow of Basic Voice Service


Voice service: The voice signal is sent to the GEIUB of service subrack through the Abis interface (16/8Kbit/s sub-timeslot). The GEIUB demultiplexes the voice signal into 64 kbit/s timeslots and sends them to the GEIUT through the GTNU in the same subrack. The GEIUT multiplexes the 64 kbit/s timeslots into 16 kbit/s timeslots and sends them to the GTCS through the Ater interface. The GEIUT in the GTCS demultiplexes the received 16 kbit/s timeslots into 64 kbit/s timeslots and sends them to the GDPUC through the GTNU in the GTCS. The GDPUC performs voice transcoding and rate adaptation on the timeslots and then sends them back to the GTNU. The GTNU switches the timeslots to the GEIUA, which sends the timeslots to the MSC through the A interface.

Software Loading
The loading process is the process that a board obtains program files and data files after the service subrack or the board starts or restarts. The process of loading has the following two phases: BOOTP phase: A board obtains its IP address, software loading control mode, and program software by sending a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) request. LOAD phase: A board obtains its data files and other files. The BSC6000 software loading control system has two layers: The GBAM is the first-level center of the entire BSC software loading management. The loading and power-on of the GBAM are independent of other boards. The GBAM processes the loading control requests of the GSCU in the GMPS. The GSCU in the GMPS is the second-level center of the loading control system. The GSCU processes the loading control requests of the service boards in the GMPS, GEPS, and GTCS.

Loading Software to the GSCU Board


The process of the software loading for the GSCU is as follows: 1. After the GSCU starts up, it broadcasts the BOOTP request. If the GBAM is online, it processes and responds to the request. If the GBAM is not started or is offline, the GSCU starts up and loads data from its own flash memory, acts as a second-level loading control center, and then processes the BOOTP requests of the other boards. 2. After receiving the response from the GBAM, the GSCU determines whether to obtain the latest application files from the GBAM based on the loading control characters and the software version in the flash memory. 3. If the GSCU needs to obtain the program files from the GBAM, it obtains the program software from the software area in the GBAM and writes it into the flash. It then loads the software from the flash. 4. After the program files are loaded, the GSCU starts to load the data files. The loading process of the data files is the same as that of the program files.

Loading Software to the Other Boards


After the software of the GSCU is loaded, the loading of the software for the other boards in the subrack starts. 1. 2. 3. After a board is started, it broadcasts the BOOTP request. The request contains the physical address of this board and the software version information stored in the flash. After the GSCU receives the BOOTP request, it transparently transmits this request to the GSCU in the GMPS if the subrack is not the GMPS. The GSCU in the GMPS calculates the IP address of the board based on the physical address of the board, and then obtains the loading control character from the configuration data of the board.
If the loading control character is Load from Flash, then the GSCU in the GMPS responds to the BOOTP request. The response carries the IP address and the loading control character, notifying the board to obtain the program files from the flash and load them. If the loading control character is Auto, then the GSCU in the GMPS determines whether the software version in the flash of this board is consistent with that in the software area of the GBAM, and then responds to the BOOTP request. The response carries the IP address and the loading control character. If the loading control character is Load from Server, then the GSCU directly downloads the application files from the version section on the GBAM.

Loading Software to the Other Boards


4. 5. 6. 7. After the program files run, the board sends a LOAD request to the GSCU in the GMPS to query the files except the program files. The GSCU in the GMPS returns a file list to the board. Based on the file list, the board responds to the GSCU with the file version information in the flash. The GSCU compares the version information and responds to the board with the information (carrying the GBAM address) about the files to be updated. The board downloads the files from the software area in the GBAM and loads them.

Loading Software to the Boards in a Remote GTCS


The GSCU in the main GTCS on the MSC side is a second-level loading control center. The loading of the remote GTCSs can be independent on the Ater O&M link to some extent. When the Ater O&M link is broken, the GSCU in the main GTCS processes the loading requests from the boards in the subrack. When the Ater O&M link is normal, the GSCU in the GMPS processes all the loading requests from the remote GTCSs and the GSCU in the GTCS stops working as a loading control center. The software loading for a remote GTCS consists of: Loading Software to the GSCU (see the next page) Loading Software to the other boards The process of loading software to the remote service boards is similar to that of loading software to the local service boards. The differences are as follows: The files downloaded from the GBAM are first saved in the remote loading control center before being downloaded to the other boards. The remote service boards download files through Ater O&M links, which work in active/standby mode. The bandwidth of each Ater O&M link is 164 kbit/s to 3064 kbit/s.

Loading the GSCU Software in the Remote GTCS


After the local GEIUT board starts up, it sets up a HDLC link to the remote GEIUT. The process of loading the GSCU software in a GTCS is as follows: 1. After the local GEIUT starts up, it sets up a Ater O&M link to the remote GEIUT. 2. The remote GEIUT sends a BOOTP request to the GSCU in the same subrack.The GSCU cannot process the request before its startup. 3. The remote GEIUT sends a BOOTP request on the Ater O&M link. 4. The local GEIUT receives the BOOTP request on the Ater O&M link and broadcasts the request on the GE ports over the local subrack. 5. The GSCU in the GMPS receives the BOOTP request, responds with a message, processes the request, and then loads the software to the remote GEIUT on the Ater O&M link. 6. The remote GSCU after power-on sends a BOOTP request to the GSCU in the GMPS through the HDLC link. 7. The transmission of the BOOTP request varies: If the Ater O&M link is normal, the BOOTP request is sent to the GSCU in the GMPS. On receiving the request, the GSCU loads the software to the remote GSCU. If the Ater O&M link is broken, the BOOTP request cannot be sent to the GSCU in the GMPS. The GSCU in the main GTCS at the remote end starts up from its flash memory and acts as a remote loading control center. When the Ater O&M link goes back to the normal state, the remote loading control center stops processing the BOOTP requests from the other boards in the remote GTCS.

Switch of Voice Signal


The basic voice signal flow should be switched nine times. If every call connection performs nine-switch, it costs long time and affects connection speed. The nine-switch is categorized into three types: Switch on the GDPUC The switch is set up when the board is initialized, which need not to be modified. Switch on the GEIUx The switch is set up according to data configuration after the board is initialized. That is to say, the

switch should be set up after the board receives data configuration. The switch can be modified if
the data configured is changed. Switch on the GTNU The switch is set up in every call connection course.

Pick-Up of Voice Signal


During accessing MS, when a MSC receives an assignment request, the BSC distributes a TCH channel to the carrier that bears the MS and detects the CIC of this call distributed by the MSC. Set up a path of the TC subrack. Distribute an idle DSP in the TC subrack where the CIC is. In addition, distribute an idle Ater interface timeslot (16K). Then build the switch between the CIC and the DSP and the switch between the DSP and the Ater. The connections of E1 cables between the BM subrack and the TC subrack through the Ater interface are determined by the data configuration. When Ater interface timeslot is distributed in the TC subrack, the Ater interface timeslot in the corresponding BM subrack is confirmed.

Then, set up the switch between the Ater and the Abis, which may cross the BM subrack.

Signal Flow of Cross-Subrack Call


Cross-subrack call: The switch of voice signal between two BM subracks is called cross-subrack call. Description of user plane cross-subrack call: For a call, the subrack that bears the Abis interface is determined by the carrier that accesses users; the subrack that bears the A interface and the subrack that bears corresponding Ater interface are distributed by the MSC. Thus, the switch cannot be performed in a same subrack.
