The document summarizes the architecture of an Evolium A9100 indoor BTS. It describes three levels: the antenna coupling level which connects antennas to transceiver modules, the transceiver level which receives and transmits signals using radio frequency channels, and the base station control function level managed by a station unit module that synchronizes components. The BTS can provide wireless service to 96 users simultaneously using 12 transceiver modules connected to 8 time slots each.

Transmission management in BSS is a feature used in managing the Base Station Subsystem transmission system functions such as supervision, alarms, statistics
and settings. The network element mainly responsible for transmission management in BSS is the Base Station Controller (BSC).
Transmission management functionalities make it possible for the operators to manage the transmission equipment remotely from the BSC or from Nokia
NetAct integrated network management system, which simplifies network maintenance and operation. Supervision functions help minimise the time spent in maintenance, and statistics collection helps the operators analyse and optimise
the use of their transmission equipment. Moreover, new software can be downloaded in a way that does not interfere with the traffic.

2.Hardware and software requirements
There are no specific hardware or software requirements for the transmission management functionalities. However, the type of the BTS poses certain
limitations.
The BTS type specific functionalities are listed in the table below.
More details about the functionalities can be found in BSS transmission management functionalities .
Polling list sending with priority is a functionality used in positioning. To ensure accurate positioning calculations, the LMU unit must supply Radio Interface Timing System (RIT) information to the network faster than the normal Q1 polling is able to do. Faster LMU polling is achieved by defining a Q1 polling
priority for each Q1 device, with the LMU having the highest priority. For more information see Location Services .
3.BSS transmission network elements
The base Station Subsystem (BSS) consists of at least one Base Station Controller (BSC) and its Base Transceiver Stations (BTS). The Transcoder Submultiplexer
(TCSM) is also part of the BSS although it is actually located in the MSC site. The three basic configurations (topologies) for transmission between the BSC and
the BTSs are: point-to-point connection
multidrop chain multidrop loop
In point-to-point configuration each BTS is connected directly to the BSC. In the multidrop chain, BTSs form a chain and the first BTS in the network is connected directly to the BSC. In the loop connection, the BTSs form a loop where the first and the last BTS in the loop are connected directly to the BSC via a crossconnecting node. The topology used depends on a number of factors such as the distance between the BSC and the BTS, the number of transceivers (TRXs) used at a particular BTS site and the signalling channel rate between the BSC and the\ BTS. Usually the topology used is a mixture of the three basic topologies. Formore information on the topologies, refer to Nokia BSS Transmission\Configuration .
The TVMLifeCheck (TLC) enables full diagnose of TVM430 Systems.
As the BaliseLifeCheck, it is a lab on wheels and can be embedded in test vehicles, as to automate maintenance, and enable predictive maintenance on the long run of installed TVM430 trackside systems.
It is a moving laboratory, automating the balise maintenance for Infrastructure Managers. The TVMLifeCheck is able to produce extremely detailed signal quality information when it passes over a TVM track circuit or condensator.
In the past, such signal quality information was not available.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

8. General Architecture of BTS
BTS has three levels-:
-Antenna Coupling Level (ANC)
-Transceiver Level (TRX)
-Base Station Control Function (BCF)
level
9. 1. Antenna Coupling Level (ANC)
Stage b/w antenna & TRX Levels
A single module called ANC perform
these functions for up to 4 TRXs.
For higher capacity, a combiner stage
can be added.
11. 2. TRX(Transceiver Level)
Transceiver Equipment…
Used for reception & transmission of signals.
One ARFCN is allotted to one TRX.& each
ARFCN is divided in 8 time slots, hence one
TRX can provide connection to 8 subscribers at
a time…
One BTS= 12 TRX=12 ARFCN=12x8= 96
users….
At a time only 96 users can make calls….
12. Base Station Control Function (BCF)
This station is ensured by Station
Unit Module (SUMA): central unit of
BTS.
Only one SUMA for one BTS….
Generating clocks for all other BTS
modules.(synchronization purpose)
e.g. Abis link…..
