1 Introduction

The RRU3668 is the outdoor remote radio unit which is powered by a power cabinet. It is the
radio frequency (RF) module of the distributed eNodeB and is installed close to the antenna.
The RRU3668 provides the following functions:
 Modulates and demodulates baseband signals and RF signals
 Processes data
 Amplifies power
 Detects standing waves
RRU3668 is newly designed to support the 2T2R mode, improving output power and carrier
capacity.
The RRU3668 is configured with the bias tee (BT). The internal BT couples RF signals and
OOK signals and transmits them through the TX/RX port A. The internal BT also supplies
power to the tower mounted amplifier (TMA).

1.1 Appearance
Figure 1-1 shows the appearance of the RRU3668.

NOTE
As recommended in 3GPP TS 36.104, RX sensitivity is measured under a 5 MHz channel bandwidth
based on FRC A1-3 in the Annex A.1 standard, where the modulation scheme is QPSK (R = 1/3) and
the system bandwidth is 25 resource blocks (RBs)

2.4 Typical Output Power

The output power per carrier in the output power table provides the maximum output power
possible while ensuring the network performance.
