10. All BSs within a cluster are connected to a Mobile Switching Center(MSC). Each MSC of a cluster is then connected to the MSC of other clusters and a PSTN main switching center. The MSC stores information about the subscribers located within the cluster and is responsible for directing calls to them.

13. 1G (Analog) NMT (Nordic Mobile Telephone) is an analog cellular phone system deployed in more than 40 countries in Europe. The system used originally 450 MHz band (NMT 450), but later when more capacity was needed, it was also adopted for 900 MHz band (NMT 900).

14. 1G (Analog) AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System) is the analog cellular phone system used in North and South America. AMPS operates at 800 MHz band. AMPS was introduced in the USA in 1983. TACS (Total Access Communication System) was developed in Britain using the 900 MHz band. TACS was based on the AMPS system and was adopted in other countries such as Hong Kong and Japan. ETACS (Extended Total Access Communication System) was developed in the UK and is available in Europe and Asia.

15. 2G (Digital) Uses digital encoding and includes CDMA, TDMA and GSM. Text messages can be sent on 2G networks, but more bandwidth hungry applications require 2.5G. Circuit switched In the United States, GSM, TDMA, and CDMA are assigned two frequency ranges that include the frequency ranges assigned to analog cellular, 824 MHz to 849 MHz and 869 MHz to 894 MHz, and also the frequency ranges of 1850 to 1910 MHz and 1930 MHz to 1990 MHz.

17. 2G (Digital) GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) is the digital transmission technique widely adopted in Europe and supported in North America. GSM uses 900 MHz and 1800 MHz in Europe. In North America, GSM uses the 1900 MHz band. TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) divides each cellular channel into three time slots in order to increase the amount of data that can be carried. GSM use TDMA. TDMA networks are operated in the United States, Latin America, New Zealand, parts of Russia and Asia Pacific.

18. 2.5G An enhancement to 2G networks that allows them to operate in a "packet switched" manner 2.5G networks incorporate 2G technology with GPRS' higher speeds to support data transport. 2.5G is a bridge from the voice-centric 2G networks to the data-centric 3G networks. GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a radio technology for GSM networks that adds packet- switching protocols. As a 2.5G technology, GPRS enables high-speed wireless Internet and other data communications. GPRS networks can deliver SMS, MMS, email, games, and WAP applications.

19. 3G 3G networks promise next-generation service with transmission rates of 144Kbps and higher that can support multimedia applications, such as video, video conferencing and Internet access. 3G networks operate on a different frequency than 2G networks.

20. 3G UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) or WCDM (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) was selected as the successor to GSM. It is the European standard for 3G wideband digital radio communications, and it utilizes one 5 MHz channel for both voice and data, offering data speeds up to 2 Mbps.

21. From 1G to Beyond 3G First Generation Analogue Circuit switched Basic voice telephony Low capacity Limited local and regional coverage Second Generation Digital Circuit switched Voice plus basic data applications Low data speed Enhancements towards packet switching higher data rates Trans-national and global roaming Digital Packet and circuit switched Advanced data (multimedia) applications Fast data access Global coverage Global roaming Third Generation Beyond Third Generation Digital Packet switched All IP based (IPv6) More advanced multimedia applications User in control Flexible platform of complementary access systems High speed data Improved QoS Global coverage Global roaming

23. IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee radios Low-Rate WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) - for communications < 30 meters. Data rates of 20, 40, 250 kbps Star topology or peer-to-peer operation, up to 255 devices/nodes per network Support for low-latency devices CSMA-CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) channel access Very low power consumption

24. Wireless LAN Standards (Wi-Fi) 802.11b –Standard for 2.4GHz ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) band (bw 80 MHz) –Frequency hopped spread spectrum –1.6-10 Mbps, 500 ft range 802.11a –Standard for 5GHz NII band (bw 300 MHz) –OFDM with time division –20-70 Mbps, variable range –Similar to HiperLAN in Europe 802.11g –Standard in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands –OFDM (multicarrier modulation) –Speeds up to 54 Mbps In future all WLAN cards will have all 3 standards...

26. Satellite Systems Cover very large areas Different orbit heights –GEOs (39000 Km) via MEOs to LEOs (2000 Km) –Trade-off between coverage, rate, and power budget! Optimized for one-way transmission: –Radio (e.g. DAB) and movie (SatTV) broadcasting Most two-way systems struggling or bankrupt... –(Too) expensive alternative to terrestrial systems –(But: a few ambitious systems on the horizon)

27. UltraWideband Radio (UWB) Impulse radio: sends pulses of tens of picoseconds (10 -12 ) to nanoseconds (10 -9 ) - duty cycle of only a fraction of a percent Uses a lot of bandwidth (order of GHz) Low probability of detection by others + beneficial interference properties: low transmit power density over wide bandwidth This also results in short range. But : High data rates, and good positioning.

28. Why is UWB interesting? Unique Location and Positioning properties –1 cm accuracy possible Low Power CMOS transmitters –100 times lower than Bluetooth for same range/data rate Very high data rates possible (although low spectral efficiency) - 500 Mbps at ~10 feet range under current regulations 7.5 Ghz of “free spectrum” in the U.S.

29. WiMAX: Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access Standards-based (PHY layer: IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN family/ETSI HiperMAN) technology, enabling delivery of ” last mile ” (outdoor) wireless broadband access, as an alternative to cable and DSL (MAN = Metropolitan Area Network). Several bands possible. OFDM-based adaptive modulation, 256 subchannels. TDM(A)-based. Antenna diversity/MIMO capability. Advanced coding + HARQ. Fixed, nomadic, portable, and mobile wireless broadband connectivity without the need for direct line-of-sight (LOS) to base station. In a typical cell radius deployment of 3 to 10 kms, expected to deliver capacities of up to 40 Mbps per channel, for fixed and portable access. Mobile network deployments are expected to provide up to 15 Mbps of capacity within a typical cell radius deployment of up to 3 kms. WiMAX technology already has been incorporated in some notebook computers and PDAs.

30. WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a trademark for a family of telecommunications protocols that provide fixed and mobile Internet access.telecommunicationsInternet access The 2005 WiMAX revision provided bit rates up to 40 Mbit/s with the 2011 update up to 1 Gbit/s for fixed stations.bit rates The name "WiMAX" was created by the WiMAX Forum, which was formed in June 2001 to promote conformity and interoperability of the standard. The forum describes WiMAX as "a standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSLlast mile

34. Spectrum Regulation Spectrum is a limited natural resource used by many. The worldwide radio spectrum is controlled by ITU-R (International Telecommunications Union) In Europe, by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standardization Institute). In the US, by FCC (Federal Communications Commission; commercial) and OSM (Office of Spectral Management; defense). Spectrum can be auctioned, paid fixed price for, or “given away” (unlicensed bands). Some spectrum typically set aside for universal use.

36. Standards Interacting systems require standardization (compatibility, interoperability) Worldwide standards determined by ITU-T (International Telecommunications Union) In Europe, by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standardization Institute) In the US by TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association) IEEE standards often adopted (also worldwide)
