2.1 ZTE Distributed Base Station Solution
To supply the customer with more competitive communication equipment and solution in
the market, ZTE develops and promotes ZTE
RF unit) distributed BS solution timely, which jointly perform LTE BS service.
ZTE's LTE BBU+RRU distributed BS solution has the following predominance:
1. Clearer and Simpler Network
Instead of running hardware independent platforms for each technology, operators can
have various wireless technologies implemented in software on the same hardware
platform.
2. Lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)
Fewer engineers are required since there is a single platform to manage and maintain.
The operational expenditures are kept to minimum compared to running several
hardware platforms.
The TCO for a mobile network is much lower in performing upgrades for the new
wireless technology due to multi-technology deployment supported by SDR-platform.
3. Lower Investment Risk
Since hardware platforms can be reused, there is significantly less investment risk
for deploying hardware. Wireless technologies develop so fast, and investing on one
technology only may bring risk to operators. SDR-based solutions will decrease the
investment risk since SDR platform can support various technologies.
