Radiation

Radiation
Electromagnetic Field Exposure

WARNING
High-power radio-frequency signals are harmful to the human body.
Before installing or maintaining an antenna on a steel tower or mast with a large number
of transmitter antennas, the operator should coordinate with all parties to ensure that the
transmitter antennas are shut down.
The base transceiver station (BTS) has RF radiation (radiation hazard). Suggestions for the
installation and operation of BTSs are given in the following section. Operators are also required
to comply with the related local regulations on erecting BTSs.

Locate the antenna in an area that is inaccessible to the public where the RF radiation
exceeds the stipulated value.

If the areas where RF radiation exceeds the stipulated value are accessible to workers,
ensure that workers know where these areas are. They can shut down the transmitters
before entering these areas. Such areas may not exist; but if they exist, the areas must
be within a range of less than 10 m around the antennas.

Indicate each forbidden zone by a physical barrier and striking sign to warn the public or
workers.

Laser

WARNING
When handling optical fibers, do not stand close to, or look into the optical fiber outlet
with unprotected eyes.
Laser transceivers or transmitters are used in the optical transmission system and associated
test tools. The laser transmitted through the optical fiber produces a small beam of light with
a high-power density and is invisible to human eyes. If a beam of light enters the eye, it can
damage the retina.
Normally, staring into the end of an un-terminated optical fiber or broken optical fiber with
unaided eyes from a distance of more than 150 mm (6 inches) does not cause eye injury. Eyes
may, however, be damaged if an optical tool such as a microscope, magnifying glass, or eye
loupe is used to stare into the bare optical fiber end.
Read the following guidelines to prevent laser radiation:

Only the trained and authorized personnel can perform the operation.

Wear a pair of eye-protective glasses when you are handling lasers or optical fibers.

Ensure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber connectors.

Never look into the end of an exposed optical fiber or an open connector if you cannot
ensure that the optical source is switched off.

or board.

Others
Inserting and Removing a Board

CAUTION
When inserting a board, wear the ESD wrist strap or gloves. Insert the board gently to
prevent any bent pins on the backplane.

Insert the board along the guide rail.

Avoid contact of one board with another. This prevents a short-circuit or damage to the
boards.

Do not remove the active board before powering off.

When holding a board in hand, do not touch the board circuit, components, connectors,
or connection slots.

Bundling Signal Cables

CAUTION
Bundle the signal cables separately from the strong current cables or high voltage
cables.

Cabling Requirements
At a low temperature, movement of the cable may damage the plastic skin of the cable. To
ensure the construction safety, comply with the following requirements:

When installing cables, ensure that the environment temperature is above 0oC.

If cables are stored in the place below 0oC, move the cables into a place at a room
temperature. Store the cables for more than 24 hours at this temperature before
installation.

Move the cables with care, especially at a low temperature. Do not drop the cables
directly from the vehicle.

Procedure

CAUTION

After the configuration file is loaded, the communication between the LMT and
the GOMU is interrupted temporarily. Manually connect the LMT to the GOMU.
After the connection succeeds, the consistency check is performed in the entire
system. If the data is inconsistent, reset the related GOMU LOCAL processes
or the related boards.

After performing the loading and recovery operations, use the password
corresponding to the backup files to log in to the LMT. The login password used

If the ping to the destination address is successful, you can infer that the physical link
between the BSC and the next hop router is normal. Therefore, the fault may occur
on the peer end, and you can contact the peer engineer.

Procedure

Procedure 12-1

Connecting the BSC to the OMC-S/T (Continued)

Take the following scenario as an example. Assume that the IP address of the
OMC-S/T server is 10.11.100.23 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The GOMU
is connected to the OMC-S/T router whose the IP address is 172.121.139.10.
Log in to the GOMU as user root. Then, perform the following steps:
1.

Open the /etc/sysconfig/network/routes file to view the routing information


configured on the GOMU.
If the information about the routing from the GOMU to the OMC-S/T is configured,
perform step 2.2.
If no information about the routing from the GOMU to the OMC-S/T is available,
add the routing information 10.11.100.23 172.121.139.10 255.255.255.0
into the file. The routing information consists of destination network (or
destination host) gateway network mask.

2.

Run the route command to view all the valid routing information on the GOMU.
If the route information from the GOMU to the OMC-S/T is validated, this task
is complete.
Otherwise, run the route add 10.11.100.23 172.121.139.10 command.

3.

Verify the route configuration.


Check whether the routing information is valid.Run the route command to view
the valid tracing information on the GOMU. Normally, you can view the routing
information from the GOMU to the OMC-S/T. If the information cannot be viewed,
perform step 2.1 again to check whether the configuration is correct.
Check the network between the GOMU and the OMC-S/T.

i.

Check whether the physical connection between the GOMU and the router
and that between the router and the OMC-S/T are proper.

ii.

Run the ping 172.121.139.10 command to check the network from the
GOMU to the router. If the GOMU receives the response packet from the
router, you can infer that the network communication between the GOMU
and the router is normal.

iii.

Run the ping 172.121.139.10 command to check the network from the
GOMU to the OMC-S/T. If GOMU receives the response packet from the
OMC-S/T, you can infer that the routing information from the GOMU to the
OMC-S/T is configured correctly and the network communication is normal.

Connect the BSC to the OMC-S/T. Create the BSC on the OMC-S/T. For details, refer to the
OMC-S/T documentation.

Failure in Connecting the LMT to the GOMU

Failure in Connecting the LMT to the GOMU

When the GOMU runs normally, logging in to the GOMU through the LMT may fail. This section
describes how to troubleshoot the failure.

Fault Description
The GOMU runs normally. After you enter Name and Password and click OK, you fail to
log in to the GOMU.

Troubleshooting
Procedure 14-1

Troubleshooting

Check whether the Name and Password are correct.

If the name and password are incorrect, enter the correct name and
password.

If the information is incorrect, go to step 2.

Check whether the network between the LMT PC and the GOMU is securely
connected. If the Ethernet cables are loosely connected, replace them with
new ones.

Faults on the Abis Interface Links

Chapter 14: Troubleshooting: Common Problems During the BSC Commissioning

Faults on the Abis Interface Links

This section describes how to rectify the faults on the Abis Interface links.

Fault Description
On the LMT, the status of E1 ports of the BTS are normal, and no E1/T1 link alarm is generated.
However, the OMLs or RSLs are unavailable.

Troubleshooting

If the OMLs fail, do as follows:


a.

Find a BTS (assume BTS 1) that is running normally and is of the same type as the
BTS (assume BTS 2) whose OMLs are faulty. Connect BTS 2 to the port on the GEIUB
of BTS 1 and then reset BTS 2.

b.

If the OMLs recover after the BTS is reset, you can infer that the configuration data
of the OMLs is incorrect. Check the configuration data for correctness. If the fault
persists, you can infer that BTS 2 is faulty. Contact the BTS maintenance personnel.

NOTE
Generally, the configuration data of the OMLs refers to the port number,
timeslot number, and sub-timeslot number.

If the OMLs are normal but the RSLs fail, do as follows:


a.

View the running status of the BTS through the LMT. For details, refer to Querying
BTS Running Status.

If the initial status of the BTS is No or the initial status of the cell is No, infer
that the BTS or the cell is not initialized. Find out the reason.

If the initial status of the BTS and the initial status of the cell are Yes, check
the configuration data of the RSLs for correctness.

BSC Commissioning Guide

Troubleshooting

NOTE

Generally, the configuration data of the RSLs refers to the


port number, timeslot number, in-port number, and in-timeslot
number.

The configuration of the RSLs is delivered to the BTS through a


BTS initialization message. If the RSLs fail because the message
is incorrectly delivered, you can infer that the fault is caused
on the BSC side.

If the RSLs fail because the TRXs are not installed in the BTS,
the TRXs are in poor contact with the backplane of the BTS, or
the TRXs incur major alarms, infer that the fault is caused on
the BTS side.

If the RSLs fail when the configuration data is correct, infer that the fault is
caused on the BTS side. Contact the BTS maintenance personnel.

Failure in Starting the GOMU Board

Chapter 14: Troubleshooting: Common Problems During the BSC Commissioning

Failure in Starting the GOMU Board

This section describes how to handle the failure in starting the GOMU.

Fault Description
The fault symptoms are as follows:

The description of LEDs on the panel is as follows:


After the GOMU is powered on, the RUN LED on the board panel is ON, and the
two LEDs that indicate the status of the read and write function of hard disks flash
simultaneously. Then, the RUN LED is still ON, but the two LEDs that indicate the
status of the read and write function of hard disks are OFF.
The ALM LED is ON or flashing.
The OFFLINE LED is flashing or ON.

The main control board generates an alarm at the frequency of 1 Hz. Three successive
sounds are produced and another three successive sounds are produced after two seconds
(an alarm related to the memory).

The possible causes are as follows:

The power cable or the network cable is loosely connected.

The memory is improperly connected or faulty.

The hard disks are improperly connected or faulty.

When shutting down the GOMU, the operator directly switches off the power instead of
powering off the GOMU normally.

The default boot sequence is changed, the device that must be started first is not started as
required. You can press F11 to view the default boot sequence: 1. Network (network port
started); 2. SCSI (hard disk started); 3. USB (USB started).

BSC Commissioning Guide

Troubleshooting Method

Troubleshooting Method
You can take the following measures to rectify the fault:
1

Check and ensure that the power cables and network cables are securely
connected.

Based on the analysis of the 1 Hz alarm, you may infer that the memory is
faulty. Therefore, the GOMU cannot be started. Remove and install the
memory. If the fault persists, proceed to the next step.

Discharge the BIOS battery, and then restart the GOMU. If the GOMU is
started and runs normally, you can infer that the fault is rectified. If the fault
persists, proceed to the next step.

If the EI tool is used to install the operationg system, check whether the
network port is first started as the default setting. If the EI tool is not used
to install the operating system, power off the GOMU, and then remove and
install the hard disk. If the fault persists, proceed to the next step.

Check whether the boot sequence of the GOMU is changed.


Restart the GOMU, and press F11 as prompted. Ensure that the GOMU is
started in the sequence of network port, hard disk, and USB.

Inconsistent Data Configurations on the Abis/Ater/A/Gb Interfaces


Troubleshooting: Common Problems During the BSC Commissioning

Chapter 14:

Inconsistent Data Configurations on the


Abis/Ater/A/Gb Interfaces

This section describes how to handle the problem of inconsistent data configurations on the Abis
Interface, the Ater interface, the A Interface, and the Gb interface.

Fault Description
After verifying the Abis, Ater, A, and Gb interfaces, the actual results do not reach the
expectation. A comparison between the data configured on the interfaces and the negotiated
data shows that the cause is data inconsistency.

Troubleshooting
Modify the inconsistent data configurations by referring to the BSC Initial Configuration Guide.
