Bavarva Dept. of Electronics and Communication

13. FDMA Operation Number of FDMA Channels In the U.S. each cellular carrier is allocated 416 channels where: Arjav A. Bavarva Dept. of Electronics and Communication

14. Advantages of FDMA If channel is not in use, it sits idle Channel bandwidth is relatively narrow (30kHz) Simple algorithmically and lower complexity Fairly efficient when the traffic is uniformly constant Capacity increase can be obtained by reducing the information bit rate and using efficient digital code No need for network timing – fewer bits required for synchronization and framing No restriction regarding the type of baseband or type of modulation Arjav A. Bavarva Dept. of Electronics and Communication

15. Disadvantages to using FDMA The presence of guard bands It increases cost as duplexer is compulsory Maximum bit rate per channel is fixed Many channels use same antenna, causes nonlinear effect and signal will spread in frequency domain (Inter modulation frequency IM ). Requires right RF filtering to minimize adjacent channel interference Arjav A. Bavarva Dept. of Electronics and Communication

40. Advantages of CDMA Many users of CDMA use the same frequency, TDD or FDD may be used Multipath fading may be substantially reduced because of large signal bandwidth No absolute limit on the number of users Easy addition of more users Impossible for hackers to decipher the code sent Better signal quality Soft hand off is performed RAKE receiver can be used to improve reception.

54. There are three different types of CSMA protocols :- (i) 1-Persistent CSMA (ii) Non-Persistent CSMA (iii) P-Persistent CSMA CSMA 1-Persistant Non- Persistent P-Persistent CSMA Arjav A. Bavarva Dept. of Electronics and Communication

55. Drawback of 1-persistent The propagation delay time greatly affects this protocol. Let us suppose, just after the station 1 begins its transmission, station 2 also become ready to send its data and sense the channel. If the station 1 signal has not yet reached station 2, station 2 will sense the channel to be idle and will begin its transmission. This will result in collision. Even if propagation delay time is zero, collision will still occur. If two stations become ready in the middle of third station’s transmission both stations will wait until the transmission of first station ends and both will begin their transmission exactly simultaneously. This will also result in collision. CONTINUOUSLY SENSES SENSES & TRANSMIT TIME BUSY CHANNEL IDLE CHANNEL CHANNEL? STATION CAN TRANSMIT IDLE BUSY Arjav A.
