The FlexWave™ Base Station Controller (BSC) provides common control for both the indoor FlexWave nanoBTS and the outdoor FlexWave microBTS. Built with a modular and flexible IP-based architecture, the FlexWave BSC uses IP connectivity to communicate with the FlexWave BTS units, while offering a standard circuit-based A-interface to the MSC and a standard circuit-based Gb interface to the SGSN. There is also an option to connect into core network architectures that employ a softswitch MSC. | FlexWave Base Station Controller BSC Common Control for Indoor Outdoor Coverage and Capacity The FlexWave Base Station Controller BSC provides common control for both the indoor FlexWave nanoBTS and the outdoor FlexWave microBTS. Built with a modular and flexible IP-based architecture the FlexWave BSC uses IP connectivity to communicate with the FlexWave BTS units while offering a standard circuit-based A-interface to the MSC and a standard circuit-based Gb interface to the SGSN. There is also an option to connect into core network architectures that employ a softswitch MSC. The FlexWave BSC provides channel allocation functions GPRS EDGE support and also controls the power level algorithms and handover procedures for the BTS units. The BSC is engineered to have a high level of availability by combining selective redundancy with fast restart capabilities. Features SPEC SHEET Compact PCI platform Flexible architecture support Compliant with GSM specs Integration into legacy MSCs Optional integration with softswitch MSCs Applications Ease of installation within a LAN WAN Cost-effective deployment utilizing secure IP connectivity Flexible BSC location Common solution for both indoor and outdoor networks 1-952-938-8080 1-800-366-3891 FlexWave BSC FlexWave Base Station Controller BSC I. Common Control for Indoor Outdoor Coverage and Capacity Flexible Integration The FlexWave BSC is extremely versatile and allows a wide range of different architectural configurations dependent on traffic densities and the ease of deployment. The FlexWave BSC is usually co-located with the MSC at the central office. However in cases with heavy traffic usage and multiple base stations in one area there is the option of distributing BSCs throughout the network. The FlexWave BSC connects to the FlexWave nanoBTS and microBTS over IP using a secure Abis over IP interface. This gives a wide range of possible IP network configurations for the deployment of the base stations. For .
