Internal Use26
Baseband Subsystem Baseband Subsystem
The baseband subsystem provides the following functions: Downlink processing: The baseband subsystem receives FP
packets from the transport subsystem. After channel coding, downlink modulation and power control, it transmits the data to the NBBI. The NBBI then allocates the DL data to the RF subsystem or RRU.
Uplink processing: The baseband subsystem receives the UL baseband data from the RF subsystem or the RRU. After demodulation and decoding, it sends the data in the format of FP packets to the transport subsystem.
Closed loop processing: The baseband subsystem implements physical layer closed loop processing for uplink & downlink power control, and DL closed loop transmit diversity processing. It retrieves related control information ( ex. uplink TPC, downlink TPC) from the UL received data and then sends the control information to DL transmit channels.

TMATMA
A tower mounted amplifier (TMA) is a low noise amplification module installed on the tower top. It is the RF front end. TMA amplifies the received weak signals on the tower top to increase the receive sensitivity and improve the UL receiving performance.
There are two types of TMAs:
Single TMA;
Double TMAs. The bypass function on power-off ensures that the received signals
can bypass LNA and reach the BTS3812E upon LNA failure.
