SOLUTION
RELEASE 10 LTE-ADVANCED
AirHarmony 1000 consists of
a single self-contained unit,
removing the need for an
equipment rack or any indoor
equipment. Units are powered
from a compact power supply

AirHarmony 1000 provides the outdoor Micro layer of a
Heterogeneous LTE-Advanced network deployment (HetNet).
advanced interference mitigation techniques which enables N=1
frequency re-use with the Umbrella Macro cell. The cooperative
QoS over the Backhaul interface ensures the Quality of
Experience (QoE) from the Micro eNodeB matches the experience
from the Macro cell.
THE POWER OF HETNETS
As operators struggle to cope with growing customer demand
for higher throughput, they are discovering that layering
small base stations into a macro cell coverage area, enables a
significant increase in network capacity by filling in coverage
gaps and addressing actual traffic distribution where demand is
highest. AirHarmony 1000 is ideal for these networks, delivering
high data rates where needed most, whether at the macro
cell edge or closer to the user base, maximizing coverage and
customer satisfaction.
BROADBAND ACCESS
AirHarmony 1000 supports 3GPP LTE Broadband access
technologies; Airspans 3GPP LTE implementation is compliant
with the 3GPP standards and has interoperable S1 and X2
interfaces and supports commercial GCF tested UE devices,
including SmartPhones, Dongles and Tablet computers.
AirHarmony 1000 uses a unique combination of Software
Defined Radio (SDR) and System-on-a-Chip (SoC) technologies to
enable it to support a range of air interfaces simultaneously.
INTERGRATED BACKHAUL
AirHarmony also supports tight integration with iBridge/iRelay,
Airspans small cell backhaul product. AirHarmony plus
iBridge/iRelay creates a single install process for LTE Access
and Backhaul, and enables our Just add Power plug and play
deployment method saving deployment CAPEX and OPEX.

with SON
SUSTAINABLE DEPLOYMENT
AirHarmony 1000 is designed to
integrate with standardized LTE
Access SON solutions. Airspans
SON solution is layered and
consists of both integrated
eNodeB SON technology and a
standardized SON interface for
centralized SON.
which are either OPEX free, or have nominal on-going expenses,
The products self-configure,
self-connect, and self-optimize.
In addition, unlike conventional
mobile network planning
and design, expansion of the
coverage area can be optimized
and adapted depending on the
local need.
AirHarmony 1000 Micro Cells can be installed on traditional tower
sites, or on existing street furniture (lamp posts or utility poles)
thus avoiding the recurring costs associated with a traditional
Macro site acquisition. Front mount antenna can be painted to
blend with the environment and fit the pole color. AirHarmony
1000 also requires a fraction of the power of a Macro base station,
further reducing the OPEX, and allowing renewable energy
sources, such as solar panels, to be used.
PLUG AND PLAY
AirHarmony 1000 supports automated configuration from the
management system, simplifying the installation of each base
station. Full plug-and-play functionality, out-of-box to fully
operational, within 20 minutes.
REDUCED CAPEX / OPEX
AirHarmony 1000 is a compact all-outdoor 3GPP LTE Micro Base
Station, which can be installed without conventional indoor
infrastructure and associated power and air-conditioning
systems. The integration of wireless backhaul reduces the
equipment installed per site, as separate backhaul infrastructure
is not required. This in turn reduces spares holding and
inventories. The iBridge/iRelay backhaul supports self-healing,
allowing the network to automatically recover in the event of
failure. This increases overall service availability and customer
satisfaction.
