Meet Challenges in Mobile Backhaul

2G/3G Network Architecture

IP RAN Solution
What it means
IP RAN is a full IP connectivity solution to enable smooth
and future-proof introduction and deployment of IP
transport in RAN.
IP RAN covers IP feature in GSM and IP in WCDMA.
IP RAN is a tested and verified solution and is aligned
with M-PBN.

Scope

Transport Connectivity

Synchronization in IP RAN

In traditional GSM/WCDMA access networks, the distribution of a


reference clock signal to the RBS is supported by the SDH and PDH
technology

In Packet Transport Network the


RBS cannot be synchronized by
traditional PDH/SDH layer 1
interface

Network Synchronization over IP

Transport transparent and independent (L2, L3, access, backhaul)


Client/Server solution, integrated in the certain boards
Proven in real networks
No need for GPS, ITU1588, Sync Over Ethernet solutions
Use protocols available today (NTP/PTP)

QoS requirements on IP RAN

Telecom Grade requirements on Transport NW


Different requirements on voice and data
Service Performance seen by users is degraded with increased
delay or frame loss

QoS Priority Handling

Handletraffic according to Network, Userand Servicedimensions


Common QoS rules for GSM/WCDMA/LTE
A framework for resolving RAN congestion in a controlled and
predictable way, when demand for resources exceeds supply.

Quality of Service

QoS traffic handling


Traffic classification for both GSM & WCDMA
Marking: DSCP and/or p-bit
Queuing

Queuing capabilities
are hardware
dependent. It is
recommended to use
three or four queues in
the Transport Network.

QoS Supported in IP RAN


Adaptation of Class-of-Service to network conditions

The use of DSCP


Application mapping to DiffServ is recommended to be the same within
a network domain (dedicated RAN, Dedicated Core or Common multiservice).

The use of p-bits


Mapping to Ethernet-QoS can be used differently due to queueprinciples and congestion behavior.
Remarking/Remapping
If the transport network could handle QoS on both, L3 and L2, the Per
hop-behavior (DiffServ value) is the one to act upon.

Network planning & design key for success

Security

RAN Security:
Iub user plane frames are encrypted (3GPP standard) from RNC
to UE
Abis user plane is not encrypted from BSC to RBS
Control plane is sent open for bothGSM & WCDMA
O&M traffic is protected on application level for both GSM &
WCDMA
Highest priority is to protect BSC/RNC and OSS from external
intrusion.

Consideration Aspect

New network architecture between Access and Core networks


Network topology logical and physical
Choice of backhaul network (L2 or L3 IP network)
Network Security, Quality of Service and Synchronization
O&M network
Existing backhaul network and backhaul providers
Core network IP infrastructure
Traffic model and Node & Interface dimensioning
Migration and Future expansion
