Telecom Service providers install base station to provide cellular mobile and in

ternet services to the wireless mobile and internet users across the globe. In L
TE technology base station is referred as eNodeB. In this page we will cover LTE
base station manufacturers which are very useful for operators going to provide
LTE service. We will cover equipment manufacturers such as NSN, Alcatel Lucent,
Ericsson, Motorola, Huawei, ZTE, Tekelec etc. The other suppliers are New postc
om equipment company as well as datang mobile communications equipment Company.
NSN
Model: Flexi Multiradio 10 LTE Base station :
It is software defined and hence supports LTE, GSM and HSPA technologies which p
rovide voice and data services to the operators. The benefit to the operators is
that it can be used in changing bandwidth and customer traffic conditions also.
Supports 3 sector RF modules and provides data rate up to 10Gbps. LTE-Advanced
and HSPA+ software upgrades are also available. It is flexible to incorporate 6
separate base band chains and can cater speed of up to 2.6Gbps.
Alcatel Lucent
Model: 9100 Multi standard base station :
This equipment is used to deploy GSM, WCDMA and LTE networks. It also supports E
DGE and HSPA+ regarding for internet connectivity. It follows software defined a
rchitecture and hence can be easily upgraded to latest developments in the wirel
ess technologies/standards as well as addition of new frequency bands. It suppor
ts both LTE TDD and LTE FDD topologies. The power output per sector is about 2 X
60 Watt. It supports frequency bands 700, 850, 900, AWS, 1800, 1900, 2100 and 2
600MHz. 9700 Series of equipments are also available now.
Ericsson
Model: RBS-6000 Series LTE eNodeB equipment:
It supports 2G, 3G and LTE standards/technologies. Ericsson's capabilities in ba
ckhaul for providing LTE solutions for operators include IP RAN, Evolved Packet
Core and mobile backhaul. This help operator's meet end to end requirement to in
stall LTE network. Due to support for 2G and 3G, service to their existing 2G/3G
customers also been fulfilled. Ericsson is also working to provide support for
changing requirements and enhancement in the technologies such as LTE advanced a
nd support of any new frequency bands.
Motorola
Model: MTS4L TETRA / LTE Base Station :
This series of base station equipments provide benefits to operators due to lowe
r power consumption and reduction in costs due to support for E1 and IP over Eth
ernet capabilities. It provides secure high speed data connectivity using TETRA
enhanced data services. Supports UHF and 800MHz frequency bands. Transmit power
of about 25W and 40W available at the base station. It supports dual or triple d
iversity with duplex or non-duplexed configurations. Higher modulation schemes s
uch as QAM are supported with 25 to 50 KHz of channel bandwidths. Operating LTE
bandwidth of 5MHz and 19MHz is supported.
Huawei
Model: BTS3900/DBS3900 family
This series of base stations from Huawei support multiple technologies/standards
. Support bandwidth of up to 100Mbps. It supports GSM, UMTS, LTE TDD and LTE adv
anced technologies and corresponding RF frequency bands. It has flexible configu
rations to meet operators need such as indoor, outdoor and distributed network s
cenarios.
ZTE
Model ZXSDR 8000 Family :
This equipment supports GSM, CDMA, UMTS, HSPA+ and LTE compliant baseband and ra
dio units. Due to SDR architecture it can also be upgraded to any new standards
or enhancement in feature. ZTE works with many telecom service operators includi
ng reliance communication in INDIA.
Samsung
Model: MBS
This LTE base station model from Samsung supports multi-standards and hence it w
ill address requirements from network operators. It provides enhanced performanc
e compare to previous BTSs. It provides support for 2G/3G and can be upgraded to
migrate to LTE TDD and LTE FDD technologies. Samsung provides voice over LTE VO
IP),small cell, EPC and so on.
