Mobile WiMAX Outdoor RAS SPI-2210 System Description/Ed.05
© SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd. 3-9
baseband signal via the Analog to Digital Conversion (ADC) process. This baseband signal
is transmitted to the MRA-S via the ‘Samsung Digital I/Q and OAM’ interface.
Mobile WiMAX base station RF Receiver (MRR)
On the service providers request of 4-branch Rx diversity to enhance the Rx performance
of the system, the 4-branch Rx diversity can be supported by additionally mounting a MRR
to the outdoor SPI-2210.
The MRR is the dedicated RF Rx module to support six Rx paths and can support two Rx
paths per sector. The MRR can serve 2-carrier located within the 72 MHz band for each
module.
If the MRR is provided, the MRR is mounted on MRU-2 slot #6 and #7. The MRR is
provided to service providers optionally.
Mobile WiMAX base station Combiner Unit -2way(MCU-2)
If the outdoor SPI-2210 supports noncontiguous carriers located on the frequency domain
in any sector, the MCU-2 is mounted. MCU-2 outputs two Tx paths combined into one
path
There are 3 kinds of MCU-2 according to combined frequency segments.
- MCU-2A
: 2496~2596MHz(MRU-2LB) + 2624~2690MHz(MRU-2FH or MRU-2UB)
- MCU-2B
: 2625.5~2635.5MHz(MRU-2UB)+2642~2672MHz(MRU-2FH or MRU-2UB)
- MCU-2C
: 2642~2672MHz(MRU-2FH or MRU-2UB)+2678.5~2688.5MHz(MRU-2UB)
MCU-3 (Mobile WiMAX base station Combiner Unit-3way)
If SPI-2210 supports 3 noncontiguous carriers in any sector, MCU-3 is mounted
instead of MCU-2. MCU-3 outputs three Tx paths combined into one path.
