This chapter provides an iCell system description.
2.1 Introduction
The iCell is an IP-based solution for CDMA2000 1X radio access networks.
The iCell system provides the overall functionality of a CDMA2000 1X Base station
transceiver subsystem (BTS) and soft base station controller (sBSC), providing an IP
over Ethernet interface to the core network. For Macro coverage small footprint iPA Bi-
directional amplifier is added to the basic BTS configuration. Figure 2-1 shows the
system architecture.
