BTS MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT- The owners of BTS industrial maintenance must know troubleshoot, repair, and upgrade equipments. There is a field technician who works on production lines or single machines. His skills are based on a good knowledge of automated systems and mechanical and electrical equipment, as well as control methods as well as preventive maintenance and corrective. It can make a diagnosis of failure to review a series of interventions and analyzed to determine the specifications of new facilities. Once these installations made, it can receive and supervise their implementation. BTS (Base Transceiver Station)- A base transceiver station (BTS) is a piece of equipment that facilitates wireless communication between user equipment (UE) and a network. UEs are devices like mobile phones (handsets), WLL phones, computers with wireless internet connectivity, WiFi and Wi- Max devices and others. The network can be that of any of the wireless communication technologies like GSM, CDMA, Wireless local loop, WAN, WiFi , Wi-Max, etc. There can be two types of BTS-indoor and outdoor .The specifications for indoor and outdoor are given above. The major difference between both is that the indoor BTS requires AC as the components used in it generates heat which is not suitable for Indian weather and thus may cause the circumstances of fire. Other differences are that outdoor BTS does not require any shelter while indoor requires shelter.Also, indoor BTS are more sensitive than outdoor BTS. 2G and 3G BTS- A 2G BTS has 1PCM while a 3 G BTS has 3 PCM while the number of alarms in 2G BTS is 16 and in 3G BTS is 30.We prefer 3G BTS over 2G because there is more data security in 3G and efficiency is also better in 3G. The 3G BTS is nowadays converting to IP based network, therefore it is becoming a RNC which will handle with higher data rates giving speed up to 14Mbps. WiMAX- Wi-MAX is an acronym that stands for World-wide Interoperability for Microwave Access. It is an ideal method for ISP to deliver high speed broadband to locations where wired connections would be difficult or costly. Wi-MAX delivers a point-to-multipoint architecture. It doesn't require a direct line of sight between the source and endpoint and it has a service range of 50 Kms. It provides a shared data rate of up to 70 Mbps, which is enough to service up to a thousand homes with high-speed access.

NIB (NATIONAL INTERNET BACKBONE) DEPARTMENT- BSNL is commissioning
a multi-gigabit, multi-protocol, IP infrastructure through National Internet Backbone-II (NIB-II), that will provide services through the same backbone and broadband access network. The services that would be supported include always-on broadband access to the Internet for residential and business customers, content-based services, video multicasting, video-on-demand and interactive gaming, audio and video conferencing, IP telephony, distance learning, messaging, multi-site MPLS VPNs with Quality of Service (Quos) guarantees. Various fundamentals of NIB department are categorised below- Broadband- BSNL Broadband is an Internet access service from state-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) available in India since 14 January 2005. Until 30 September 2007 it was known as Data One. Broadband is often called high-speed Internet, because it usually has a high rate of data transmission. In general, any connection to the customer of 256 kbit/s or more is considered broadband. Broadband Services: 1.Landline Broadband-Landline broadband uses a landline as its medium of communication. If you do not have a landline, you cannot get a fixed-line broadband connection. If you cannot get a landline, you may have to opt for mobile broadband. 2.Mobile Broadband (3G)- Mobile broadband is the marketing term for wireless Internet access delivered through mobile phone towers to computers, mobile phones and other digital devices using portable modems. The modem may be built into laptop computers, tablets, mobile phones, and other devices, added to some devices using PC cards, USB modems, and USB sticks or dongles, or separate wireless modems can be used 3.WIMAX Broadband- This technology provides fixed as well as fully mobile high speed broadband connectivity along with roaming feature. It provides users a thrilling Internet browsing experience. BSNL offers large variety of Customer Premises Equipments ( CPE) including Outdoor, Indoor and USB dongles. DSLAM- DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) is an integrated hardware and software system that allows the user to access broadband services as well as originate and terminate telephone calls over the same single pair of copper wires. DSLAMs have been categorized into seven types based on the number of ports (960, 480, 240, 120, 64, 32, 16) provided and planned for deployment based on the expected demand. ADSL ADSL stands for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. It is a technology that allows copper telephone pairs to be used to provide a broadband connection. It provides always-on Internet connection that is automatically established once the PC and ADSL modem are switched on.

The Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) In a PDH network you have different levels of Multiplexers.Figure01 shows three levels of multiplexing:- 2Mbit/s to 8Mbit/s 8Mbit/s to 34Mbit/s 34Mbit/s to 140Mbit/s
So to carry a 2Mbit/s data stream across the 140Mbit/s trunk requires it to be multiplexed up through the higher order multiplexers into the 140Mbit/s trunk and then to be multiplexed down through the lower order multiplexers. Because Plesiochronous is not quite Synchronous each of the multiplexers need a little bit of overhead on their high speed trunks to cater for the slight differences in data rates of the streams on the low speed ports. Some of the data from low speed ports (that are running too fast) can be carried in the trunk overhead, and this can happen at all multiplexing levels. This is known as Justification or Bit Stuffing.
PDH Multiplexing Hierarchy Figure 2 shows that there are two totally different hierarchies, one for the US and Japan and another for the rest of the world.
The other thing to notice is that the different multiplexing levels are not multiples of each other. For example CEPT2 supports 120 Calls but I requires more than 4 times the bandwidth of CEPT1 to achieve this. This is because PDH is not exactly synchronous and each multiplexing level requires extra bandwidth to perform Bit Stuffing. So the Plesiochronous Hierarchy requires Bit Stuffing, at all levels, to cater for the differences in clocks. This makes it particularly difficult to locate a particular 2Mbit/s stream in the 140Mbit/s trunk unless you fully de-multiplex the 140Mbit/s stream all the way down to 2Mbit/s.
Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Concept:
Introduction It is an international standard networking principle and a multiplexing method. The name of hierarchy has been taken from the multiplexing method which is synchronous by nature. The evolution of this system will assist in improving the economy of operability and reliability of a digital network.
Merits of SDH (i) Simplified multiplexing/demultiplexing techniques. (ii) Direct access to lower speed tributaries, without need to multiplex/demultiplex the entire high speed signal. (iii) Enhanced operations, Administration, Maintenance and provisioning capabilities. (iv) Easy growth to higher bit rates in step with evolution of transmission technology. (v) Capable of transporting existing PDH signals. (vi) Capable of transporting future broadband (ATM) channel bit rates. (vii) Capable of operating in a multi-vendor and multi-operator environment.
NIB DEPARTMENT BSNL is commissioning
a multi-gigabit, multi-protocol, IP infrastructure through National Internet Backbone-II (NIB-II), that will provide services through the same backbone and broadband access network. The services that would be supported include always-on broadband access to the Internet for residential and business customers, content-based services, video multicasting, video-on-demand and interactive gaming, audio and video conferencing, IP telephony, distance learning, messaging, multi-site MPLS VPNs with Quality of Service (Quos) guarantees. All the basic fundamentals related to this department are explained below. Basic Terminologies related to NIB: 1. Network In one network more than one computer connected with each other through centralized device. They can share files and resources with each other. a. LAN: LAN stands for Local Area Network. The scope of the LAN is within one building, one school or within one lab. In LAN (Hub), media access method is used CSMA/CD in which each computer sense the carrier before sending the data over the n/w. b. WAN: WAN stands for Wide Area Network, in which two local area networks are connected through public n/w. it may be through telecommunication infrastructure or dedicated lines. For e.g: - ISDN lines, Leased lines etc. 2. Devices: a. HUB: Hub is centralized device, which is used to connect segments of a LAN. The media access method is used CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection). It has no special kind of memory. It simply receives the frame (data) and forwards it to all its nodes except the receiving node. There are two types of Hub: - (i) Active Hub: In Active hub, it receives the frame regenerate and then forward to all its nodes. (ii) Passive Hub: In Passive hub, it simply receives the frame and forward to all its connected nodes. b. SWITCH: Switch is also used to connect multiple workstations. Switch is more intelligent than hub. It has special kind of memory called mac address/filter/lookup table. The media access method is used CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/ Collision Avoidance). Switches provide more efficiency, more speed and security. There are two types of switches: - (i) Manageable switches (ii) Non-manageable switches c. BRIDGE: Bridge is a hardware device, which is used to provide LAN segmentation means it is used for break the collision domain. It has same functionality as performed by switch. d. ROUTER: Router is hardware device, which is used to communicate two different networks. Router performs routing and path determination. It does not perform broadcast information. There are two types of routers: - (i) Hardware Routers (ii) Software Routers 6.2 Internet Services: Internet access is the means by which individual terminals, computers, mobile devices, and local area networks are connected to the global Internet. Internet access is usually sold by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that use many different technologies offering a wide range of data rates to the end user. Consumer use first became popular through dial-up connections in the 1980s and 1990s. By the first decade of the 21st century, many consumers had switched away from dial-up to dedicated connections, most Internet access products were being marketed using the term "broadband", and broadband penetration was being treated as a key economic indicator.

CONCLUSION It was a great experience to be there in the TRANSMISSION, BTS MAINTANENCE and NIB department of the BSNL office for attending the internship. Like every good thing, it had to come to an end and so it did. I have the great memories of the time spent here. At the end of my six month industrial training I learned about:- Transmission department, its working and about the equipments used in Transmission. Broadband department, its working and about the equipments used in NIB. Base Transceiver Station, its working and about the equipments used in BTS. I got an experience of working with professionals. During the training period, I certainly learnt a lot about the technical and practical details about the various aspects of the communication field. I certainly got a very good industrial exposure working here in BSNL. The things are numerous, while words are only few. To conclude, I would rather say that after my full try, I could pick up only a mouthful of knowledge out of the sea. The time was really less while there was a lot to learn. I hope I would have another chance to attend a similar programme and learn more in it.
