Brief Introduction to Huawei Multimode Controller

1. Application Description

1) Service Description

With the industry-leading multiple radio access technologies (RATs), IP transmission mode, and modularized design concepts, Huawei multimode controller incorporates the functions of a UMTS RNC and a GSM BSC, accommodating the need for multi- RAT convergence in the mobile network.

Huawei multimode controllers can be flexibly configured as GSM, UMTS, and GU network modes to suit different network scenarios.

• When the Huawei multimode controller is configured as GSM mode, it operates as an independent NE to access a GSM network and provides the functions of a GSM BSC, and can be upgraded to GU mode through the addition of UMTS boards and a software upgrade.
• When the Huawei multimode controller is configured as UMTS mode, it operates as an independent NE to access a UMTS network and provides the functions of a UMTS RNC, and can be upgraded to GU mode through the addition of GSM boards and a software upgrade.
• When the Huawei multimode controller is configured as GU mode, it operates as an integrated NE to access a network where GSM and UMTS services coexist and provides the functions of MBSC.
