10 Wireless Communication
Alternative means of wireless communication Walkie - Talkie Pagers Trunked private radios Mobile Phone - the magic technology that enables everyone to communicate anywhere with anybody.

11 Cellular Communication
Principles of Cellular Communication

12 Cellular Communication
A cellular system links Mobile subscribers to Public Telephone System or to another Mobile subscribers. It removes the fixed wiring used in a traditional telephone installation. Mobile subscriber is able to move around, perhaps can travel in a vehicle or on foot & still make & receive call.

13 Advantage of Cellular Communication
Mobility Flexibility Convergence Greater QOS Network Expansion Revenue/Profit

14 WHAT IS CELLULAR TELEPHONY ?
CONSIDERATIONS - FREQUENCY SUBSCRIBER DENSITY COVERAGE Base Station Base Station Base Station Base Station Base Station Base Station

15 The Cell Cellular Radio involves dividing a large service area into regions called “cells.” Each cell has the equipment to switch, transmit and receive calls. Cells - Reduce the need of High powered transmission Cells - Conventionally regarded as being hexagonal, but in reality they are irregularly shaped. Cell shape is determined by the nature of the surrounding area e.g. Hills , tall building etc.

16 The CELL What is a cell ? A cell is a certain area that can be reached with one transceiver or A small collection of transceivers on different channels at a single base site. BTS The hexagonal-shaped communication cells are artificial & are generated to simplify the planning & design of a cellular network.

17 Coverage & Capacity Coverage
Percentage of the geographical area covered by cellular service where mobile telephony is available Capacity - Number of calls that can be handled in a certain area within a certain period of time. Capacity can also refer to the probability that users will be denied access to a system due to the simple unavailability of radio channels.

18 Cells

19 Cell Size Large Cells 35 Km Remote Areas High Transmission Power
Few subscribers Small Cells Near about 1 KM Urban Areas Low Transmission Power Many Subscribers

20 MICRO CELL Below Rooftop ~ Railway Platforms, Airports,
~ Busy Shopping Bazaar etc. Low Tx Power ~ 1 Watt max. Limited Coverage ~ 200m - 500m Hotspot Solution Special Algorithms for HO

21 PICO CELLS Inside offices, Buildings Very Low Tx Power
~ Less than 1 Watt Limited Coverage ~ m Capacity Solution Special Algorithms for HO Pico Cell

22 Analog Mobile Telephony
End of 1980’s Analog Systems unable to meet continuing demands Severely confined spectrum allocations Interference in multipath fading environment Incompatibility among various analog systems Inability to substantially reduce the cost of mobile terminals and infrastructure required

23 Digital Mobile Telephony
Spectrum space - most limited and precious resource Solution - further multiplex traffic (time domain) Can be realized with Digital Techniques only.

24 Different Standards Worldwide
Till 1982 Cellular Systems were exclusively Analog Radio Technology. Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS) U.S. standard on the 800 MHz Band Total Access Communication System (TACS) U.K. standard on 900 MHz band Nordic Mobile Telephone System (NMT) Scandinavian standard on the 450 & 900 MHz band

25 GSM History and Organization
1979 Europe wide frequency band reserved for Cellular 1982 “Groupe Speciale Mobile” created within CEPT 1986 GSM had full time in Paris 1988 ETSI takes over GSM Committee 1990 The phase 1 GSM Recommendations frozen 1991 GSM Committee renamed “Special Mobile Group” and GSM renamed as “ Global System for Mobile Communication” 1992 GSM is launched for commercial operations

26 GSM - IN CELLULAR TELEPHONY
Each Cell in the Cellular Network consists of one or more RF carriers. An RF carrier is a pair of radio frequencies One used in upward direction by MS - Uplink Other used in downward direction by BTS - Downlink The transmit and receive frequencies are separated by a gap of 45 MHz in GSM of 75 MHz in DCS. There are 124 carries in GSM Band. With each carrier carrying 7 timeslots, only 124 x 7 = 868 calls can be made! Frequency Reuse is the solution

27 dl ul Uplink-Downlink BTS Tx MS Rx BTS Rx MS Tx
Downlink = 935 to 960 MHz BTS Tx dl MS Rx Uplink = 890 to 915 MHz BTS Rx MS Tx ul

28 Frequency & ARFCN Ful(n) = 890.0 + (0.2) *n MHz Fdl(n) = Ful + 45 MHz
where n =ARFCN ; 1  n  124 dl= 935 to 960 MHz ul= 890 to 915 MHz

91 ROAMING PSTN MSC HLR INDIA ME MSC VLR UK ME

92 ROAMING The mobile roams to another country (UK) and requests a Location Update when switched ‘ON’. The VLR (UK) informs the home HLR (India) of the mobile’s new location (UK). The HLR updates its location information and sends the subscriber information to the VLR (UK). The HLR requests the subscriber information be removed from the VLR (India). The VLR (India) acknowledges, and removes the subscriber information from its database. After the mobile’s registration is completed in UK’s MSC/VLR, the mobile is able to use network services (MOC, MTC etc.)
