Functional description
Power supply interface
INCA module
Tx side
142
•
Extracts management flows from the incoming traffic to the CPU port
•
Performs traffic adaptation if needed
•
Performs Quality of Service and policing on flow to be sent over the radio link
•
Performs modulation and demodulation of the resulting modem frame
The power supply comes from office power. The MPT-HC V2/MPT-XP/9558HC input
voltage range is from -28 Vdc to -58 Vdc.
The INCA module hosts the physical electrical Ethernet interface.
Following the flow from user Ethernet port to radio, the section performs:
•
Reception of incoming Ethernet frames from the optical or electrical user interface
(through INCA)
•
Recovery of the clock coming from the indoor unit
•
Switching of the management frames from user port to internal processor
•
Generation of MPT-HC V2/MPT-XP/9558HC to MPT-HC V2/MPT-XP/9558HC
messages needed for radio link, such as ATPC or ACM
•
Compression of the TDMoEth frames header (TDM2TDM - MEF8, TDM2ETH -
MEF8)
•
Management of the Quality of Service
•
Fragmentation of the Ethernet frames
•
Shaping of the traffic to adapt it to radio bandwidth
•
Tx Modem frame building
•
Tx Radio frame building such as FEC or pilots
•
Synchronisation depending on the selected synchronisation mode (SynchE/PCR)
according to the connection type
•
Modulation in I and Q analog signals to be sent to the RF section
