Fallback operation is the emergency operating mode of base stations in networks with
centralized switching architecture. The unavailability of network-wide services is signaled
to the terminals and taken into account by them during the cell selection.
3.5.5
Stand-alone operation
The radio coverage of base stations with Switching Controller Function (SCF) in networks
with distributed switching architecture continues to be ensured if they lose the connection
to all other network constituents with SCF. In this case the base station switches to stand-
alone operation.
In stand-alone operation, the base station in its radio cell will perpetuate the Base Station
Function (BSF) as well as all the other local services and gateways (Application Gateway
(AGW) and/or Packet Data Gateway (PGW)). As opposed to fallback operation, in stand-
alone operation Call Detail Records (CDR) will still be generated.
Stand-alone operation is the emergency operating mode of base stations in networks with
distributed switching architecture. The unavailability of network-wide services is signaled
to the terminals and taken into account by them during the cell selection. Depending on
the project requirements, the signaling can be switched off upon demand.
3.5.6
Redundant V
AC
power supply
For the reliable power supply, DIB-R5 provides two redundancy options for V
AC
power
supply to ensure operation of the base station at all times:
n
Ä
Redundant rectifier modules (Power Supply Module, PSM)
n
Ä
Redundant power supply lines
Both redundancy options can be combined for the highest possible reliability.
3.5.6.1 Redundant rectifier modules (Power Supply Module, PSM)
The power supply continues to be ensured through redundant rectifier modules (Power
Supply Module, PSM) and ensures the operation of DIB-R5 if one PSM should fail. The
active and the redundant PSMs are all in operation in this case and divide the load
among them. In case of a failure, the load on the remaining PSMs is increased accord-
ingly.
