<Next Generation Mobile Backhaul>

Overview

The mobile backhaul challenge

Broadband technologies like WCDMA, HSDPA and in the near future LTE, have already started to encourage Mobile Operators to expand their current backhaul links in order to transport new services like mobile TV, video conferencing, real-time games and mass adoption of full internet browsing and communication.

The exponential increase in required backhaul bandwidth would normally cause a similarly curved increase in cost while revenue per transported megabyte declines sharply. Mobile Operators now need to find a new backhaul cost model that can efficiently transport current and new services through both legacy and future all IP networks.

Underpinning reasons for high OPEX in mobile backhaul today are:

  • Backhauls are often scaled to manage peak rates
  • Synchronous backhaul leased line cost scales almost linearly with capacity
  • All traffic is often treated with exactly the same importance

The positive impact of Aggregation and Ethernet transport in mobile backhaul

Fortunately, there are scalable answers to the ever increasing demands for mobile backhaul bandwidth. The following factors help mobile operators to reduce mobile backhaul OPEX. NEC's CX2600 Series and CX2200 products are designed to enable these costs saving techniques in the backhaul:

  1. Leased Ethernet backhaul is significantly cheaper than SDH backhaul per Mbps.
  2. IP based backhaul can be shared since not all base stations will be transmitting at the same time
  3. Traffic from different types of network (2G, 3G, HSPA and WiMAX) can be aggregated onto a single more economical backhaul link
  4. Traffic from different base stations can be aggregated onto a single economical link
  5. Sometimes backhaul capacity can be shared across base-stations that see contrasting traffic patterns
  6. Traffic can be routed over the backhaul network that best serves the needs of the that service. This is especially important in situations where an operator has an established SDH network and added an IP network that can carry "best effort" traffic.
  7. Traffic can be switched respecting service priority though intelligent buffering which can smooth out traffic peaks in over-booked links maintaining QoS.
  8. Backhaul can be shared or resold between multiple operators on the same site.

Backhaul Evolution

NEC's CX2600 Series and CX2200 products transport legacy and IP traffic through any kind of transport network. NEC's CX2600 Series and CX2200 allow Operators to offload data traffic through a low cost IP network with full QoS control. Besides that, according to each Operator's strategy, all the traffic (data and voice legacy) can be prompt migrated to an all IP network.
