AGW), which presents the Abis interface to the Base Station Controller (BSC) and Packet Control Unit (PCU) in the Base Station System (BSS). Figure 2 S-Series Architecture 2.1.1 Internet Service Provider (ISP) Customer-Premise Domain The Customer-Premise Domain consists of small form factor PicoBTSs with DSL and/or cable modem/router connections to the Backhaul Domain. Each PicoBTS is connected to the DSL/cable modem/router via an RJ-45 CAT5 Ethernet cable. • Connection to the Backhaul Domain may alternatively be provided through a customer-premise LAN • PicoBTSs are distributed in the customer premises to optimize coverage • Each PicoBTS acts as a single picocell 2.1.2 Backhaul Domain The Backhaul Domain provides secure transport between the PicoBTSs and the S-AGW in the Infrastructure Domain. The Backhaul IP Domain must also include a local DHCP server or access to a DNS server. The backhaul domain link must meet minimum performance requirements. 2.1.3 Carrier Infrastructure Domain The Infrastructure Domain consists of a mobility network and optionally a separate data network that provides access to the Internet. Common to both networks is a firewall (optional). The S-AGW manages system resources and multiplexes/de-multiplexes user traffic to multiple RadioFrame customer-premise PicoBTSs. Each PicoBTS is configured to be a logical 1-TRX Metro-Site BTS from the BSC’s point of view. Note: The Transcoder Rate Adaptation Unit (TRAU) function is required, as it is for an existing GSM BTS.

S-Series OmniCell@Home Picocell GSM Implementation Guide System Description 998-1027-01 Rev X2 The S-RS provides a mechanism for authenticating each S1 BTS as it joins the service-provider (SP) network (during system start-up) and initial key exchange for protection of subsequent signalling communications between the PicoBTS and the S-AGW. In essence, the S-RS serves as a “gatekeeper” – ensuring that only authenticated PicoBTS equipment may reach the S-AGW via its backhaul IP address. The S-EMS is used to manage the operation of the S-Series AGW and PicoBTS network elements. The S-EMS performs typical Element Manager Layer (EML) services as defined by the Telecommunications Management Network (TMN) model. The S-EMS provides management functions in addition to the GSM management provided by the MNO’s existing OMC across the Abis interface. 2.2 PicoBTS Functional Block Diagram Figure 3 shows the functional subsystems of the PicoBTS. These are described in the following paragraphs. RF Monitor The RF monitor functional block is a GSM receiver capable of receiving in the 900/1800 and 850/1900 bands. The purpose of this block is to monitor the radio environment and look for carriers from the macro network as well as carriers from other nearby PicoBTS units. Signal information from these sources is passed to the Host CPU block where it is used for frequency planning and other system-management functions. EDGE/GPRS/GSM This block is the PicoBTS quad-band transceiver. It performs the radio functions required in a base station as well as baseband processing of transmitted and received signals. Though not strictly part of the transceiver, the SIM-card reader is included in this block as it interfaces directly to the FPGA. Host CPU This block performs a variety of control and processing functions necessary for operation of the HRBS. The WLAN transceiver, router, GSM transceiver and RF monitoring sections interface to the host CPU. Router and Ethernet PHY In addition to providing LAN capability, the router section allows additional Ethernet connections to the ISP network. RadioFrame Networks, Inc.

System Description S-Series OmniCell@Home Picocell GSM Implementation Guide 998-1027-01 Rev X2 Figure 3 PicoBTS Functional Block Diagram 2.3 System Manager Software Management is primarily intended to be performed using existing Operation Support System (OSS) resources within the MNO infrastructure. However, there are also local and remote management capabilities provided by the System Manager software package. System Manager is a web-based graphical management system, which is accessible via an IP-based connection. System Manager provides Operations personnel with remote access and control, including configuration, alarm monitoring, triage/troubleshooting and system statistical reporting. All S-Series systems include System Manager as standard equipment. Core System Manager functions include: • Software Download (both locally and remotely) • X.733 Alarming • Configuration Management • Diagnostics and Troubleshooting • Call Statistics and Uptime • RF Performance Metrics (e.g., Uplink SQE, Noise Floor, etc.) • Test and Maintenance (e.g., automated BER testing) 2.4 Network Integration To support needed personalization and location features, the S-Series communicates with one or more of the databases (such as Personalization and Location DBs) which may or may not already exist in the Mobile Network Operator (MNO) BSS and CN. Each PicoBTS is equipped with a SIM card that stores necessary information for S-Series provisioning and authentication. SIM-based authentication methodology, similar to GSM authentication but with no core-network involvement, is used during the PicoBTS registration with the S-RS to ensure that stolen PicoBTSs are barred from operating. The PicoBTS authentication does not involve the HLR or any other core-network (CN) element. 12 CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY RadioFrame Networks, Inc.

S-Series OmniCell@Home Picocell GSM Implementation Guide Specifications 998-1027-01 Rev X2 The existing BSC and BTS MIBs can be managed by the existing BSS OMC, and the additional PicoBTS MIBs can be managed by the new S-EMS (a separate NE) or these MIBs can be integrated into the OMC. One common scenario is to initially deploy a single S-EMS and then remove it once the integration of the S-Series with standard MNO element and network management resources is completed. 3 Specifications 3.1 Dimensions Table 2 Dimensions Metric (w x h x d cm) Imperial (w x h x d in.)

Therefore, the total for both directions is 26 packets, or approximately 4000 bytes. Note: The S-RS employs a throttling mechanism such that a limited number of registration requests may be handled concurrently. Each request spawns a temporary thread in the S-RS process, 20 CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY RadioFrame Networks, Inc.

S-Series OmniCell@Home Picocell GSM Implementation Guide Installation 998-1027-01 Rev X2 • The bandwidth required for a fully loaded S-AGW at the S-AGW – IP backhaul interface is about 200 kbps (per TRX) * 40 = 8 Mbps 4.2 Preparation for Installation In Section 4.3 you will connect the cabling and bring up the PicoBTS CPE. Installation requires no training or prior expertise on the product. The software architecture of the S-Series allows for a “plug-and-play” behaviour. No intervention is required if the preparation described in this section has been accomplished. Before the PicoBTS CPE is able to register, it must be provisioned with the FQDN (or IP address) of the S-RS in order to initiate the process. (For security, the S-RS does not advertise or poll.) Normally this provisioning is pre-loaded in the CPE. Refer to Appendix B, Default Configuration of the OmniCell@Home Picocell as Shipped, for the Factory settings for the PicoBTS. 4.3 Installing CPE Equipment Note: Infrastructure equipment must be operational before CPE can be installed. The PicoBTS hardware is installed at customer premise locations, most likely at different times and by different personnel. The following items come with the PicoBTS: • Power supply transformer assembly with country-specific adapters • Ethernet cable: CAT5e, 7 ft (2.13 m) The customer needs to supply additional Ethernet cables if additional equipment will be connected to the PicoBTS router on the LAN side. Auto MDX/MDIX is supported. The PicoBTS should be placed on a table top in the vertical position as shown in Figure 1. Plan to route the necessary cabling to the location of the PicoBTS, including power, WAN cable, and any LAN cables. 4.3.1 Mechanical Installation Time Mechanical installation time for the PicoBTS is designed to be minimal, and should be less than 10 minutes. Connect the PicoBTS WAN port to the broadband IP backhaul network (xDSL or cable modem). Connect the LAN ports to the local area network as necessary. RadioFrame Networks, Inc.

Within three minutes, the PicoBTS registers and is ready for use. CPE IP Address PicoBTSs can be configured with a static IP address, or addresses can be assigned by DHCP. To change settings on a PicoBTS, you can connect a PC to one of the LAN ports on the PicoBTS and browse to 192.168.0.1. The default username is admin, with password admin123 Refer to Figure 4. On the general setup page you can select either DHCP or static IP address. It is not critical what IP addresses the PicoBTSs receive as long as they do not clash with anything else on the same network.

System Configuration ChangesS-Series OmniCell@Home Picocell GSM Implementation Guide998-1027-01 Rev X2 Appendix C. RF Emissions Precautions C.1 Exposure vs. Frequency Overall exposure may be affected by radio frequency generating facilities that exist at the time the equipment is being installed or even by equipment installed later. Therefore, the effects of any such facilities must be considered in site selection and in determining whether a particular installation meets the requirements of safe operation. Determining the compliance of transmitter sites of various complexities may be accomplished by means of computational methods. For more complex sites, direct measurement of power density may be more expedient. Persons responsible for installation of this equipment are urged to consult the listed reference material to assist in determining whether a given installation complies with the applicable limits. In general the following guidelines should be observed when working in or around radio transmitter sites: Warning! All personnel should have electromagnetic energy awareness training. Warning! Obey all posted signs. Warning! Assume all antennas are active. Warning! Never operate transmitters without shields during normal operation. Warning! Do not operate base station antennas in equipment rooms. 28 CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY RadioFrame Networks, Inc.
