1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
This document provides a high-level description of the Next Generation Baseband
Processing Unit (NG BBU) – the ZXRAN V9200 (hereinafter referred to as “V9200”),
used in ZTE total wireless solution.
The V9200 is usually connected to RRUs/AAUs, making a distributed solution. It is
responsible for processing the baseband signals. Based on the new generation IT BBU
platform, the V9200 supports GSM, UMTS, LTE, NB-IoT and 5G single modes or
multi-mode by software configuration/upgrade. It enables operators to deploy one unified
radio access network rather than independent GSM, UMTS, LTE, NB-IoT or 5G
networks, which brings simplicity and convenience with low CAPEX and OPEX. Figure
1- 1 shows the position of the V9200 in the typical multi-mode network.
