    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting a plurality of antenna signals in a wireless Base Transceiver Station (BTS) using Remote Radio Head (RRH) technology and the corresponding system. The method includes the steps of: transmitting signals over the transmit channel using Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH)/Optical Transmission Network (OTN), multiplexing the plurality of antenna signals adopting the manners of time division multiplex or GFP frame-level multiplex; forming the multiplexed antenna signal stream and in-band control signaling stream into Generic Framing Procedure (GFP) frame; or forming the plurality of antenna signals and the plurality of respective control signals on the in-band control signaling channel into a plurality of respective GFP frames in parallel; and further mapping the GFP frames to STM-N/OTM-n frames, therefore multiplexing the plurality of antenna signals and the in-band control signaling stream to realize the SDH/OTN-based transmission.

  • Publication number: 20070116046
    Abstract: A communication method between the units of a distributed base station system, characterized by comprising: at the transmitting end, mapping a CPRI link to a GFP-T frame; encapsulating the GFP-T frame into SDH virtual containers to form a STM-N frame; and transmitting the STM-N frame via a SDH line, and at the receiving end, receiving the STM-N frame transmitted via the SDH line; separating the SDH virtual containers from the STM-N frame; extracting the GFP-T frame from the SDH virtual containers; reproducing the CPRI link from the GFP-T frame.

  • Publication number: 20070091896
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for realizing transmission of multiprotocol client signals in a distributed base station subsystem, comprising: encapsulating client signals by a GFP-T frame; and mapping said GFP-T frame into a lower-layer transmission link to realize the transmission of client signals. Said lower-layer transmission link is a common public radio interface CPRI link. Said client signals are one of the following: baseband I/Q signals of WCDMA supported by CPRI protocol, baseband I/Q signals of radio interface protocols other than WCDMA, structured signals of E1/T1, STM-1 and other constant-rate links, structured variable-rate link signals such as Ethernet MAC frame signals, PPP/HDLC frame signals, etc. This method is also applicable to other types of synchronous transmission links between a remote radio unit and a primary baseband processing unit, e.g., the links as specified by OBSAI (Open Base Station Architecture Initiative).
