Background
Referring to fig. 1-3,4G/5G NR distributed small base station, the main function of the extension Unit EU/Radio Hub is to complete the distribution of the downlink data of the Central Unit (CU) and the Data Unit (DU) to the IQ data of the multiple Radio Units (RU) and the uplink multiple Radio Units (RU), and after the time slots (slots) are aligned, the IQ data of the single RU is combined, and the IQ data combined into the single RU is uploaded to the cu+du through the eCPRI/CPRI interface. EU support several interfaces to CU, i.e. several EU cascade interfaces, and interfaces to 8 RU at most, EU support 25G optical interface or 10G optical interface upper interface, also support 10G electrical interface. Both 10G and 25G are ethernet ports supporting eCPRI protocols. In the conventional EU/Radio Hub device, 8 RUs are generally connected in parallel, uplink IQ data of the 8 RUs are converged at the EU side, time slots (slots) are aligned, and then the average value of the uplink IQ data is combined into IQ data of one RU, and the IQ data is sent to the CU/DU through a eCPRI interface of the EU/Radio Hub. The average value combination of the uplink IQ data of 8 RUs can bring the improvement of the bottom noise, and the performance of the DU side receiver is deteriorated.

However, the merging of the uplink IQ data of 8 RUs will bring about improvement of the background noise, which is 10×log10 (8) =9.03db in total, and as the number of RU connected in parallel increases, the background noise of the IQ data after merging will be increased, which seriously affects the receiving performance of the data unit DU receiver, so that at most 8 RUs are connected in parallel behind one extension unit EU. .
