In this course

We will discuss the design, deployment, and operation of mobile wireless systems.

The term cellular communications is often interchanged with the terms personal communication service (PCS), and the third-generation (3G) service

Cellular

One of most prolific voice communication platforms that has been deployed within the last two decades

Cellular systems have always been able to transport data, and many advancement in different modulation formats allow for the delivery of narrowband data.

Cellular systems are unable to provide broadband data service The bandwidth limitationsTypical data rate: 9 kilobits per second (Kbit/s)

MSC (Mobile Switching Center)That in turn connects to the PSTN (Public

Switched Telephone Network) or postal, telegraph, and telephone (PTT) systems

Their main usefulness in their capability to maintain the same contact number even if the user moves from one location to another

Cellular

Cellular communication is the form of wireless that allows forFrequency reuseMobility of the subscriberHandoffs

Typically, the reference of cellular system is AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System) or TACS (Total-Access Communications System)

First-Generation Wireless System and Service


Cellular

AMPS operates in the 800 –MHz band821 to 849 MHz for the base station receive869 to 894 MHz for the base station transmitNorth America

TACS890 to 915 MHz for the base station receive935 to 960 MHz for the base station transmit


Cellular

Many other technologiesSMR (Specialized Mobile Radio)IS-136 iDEN (Integrated Dispatch Enhanced Network)

Cellular radio was initially developed by AT&T (Bell Lab.)To provide additional radio capacity for a

geographic customer service area.


Cellular

MTS (Mobile Telephone System) Initial mobile systmes

IMTS (Improved Mobile Telephone System)One of the main problem

A mobile call could not be transferred (handed off) from one radio station to another without loss of singnal

This problem was resolved by reusing the allocated frequencies of the system

With the handoff problem solved, the market was able to offer higher radio traffic capacityAllows for more users than with the MTS or IMTS


Cellular

The cellular systems in USA are broken into MSAs (Metropolitan Statistical Areas)

A-band system

RSAs (Rural Statistical Areas)B-band system

The A band is nonwireline system, and B band is the wireline system for the MSA and RSA.


Advanced mobile phone system (AMPS)

The cellular standard developed for use in North America

This type of system operates in the 800-MHz frequency

Also developed in South America, Asia, and Russia


Nordic mobile telephone (NMT)

Developed by the Nordic countries of Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Norway in 1981.

Operate in the 450- (NMT 450) and 900-MHz (NMT 900) frequency bands.


Second-Generation Wireless System and Service


Code-division multiple access (CDMA)

An alternative digital cellular standard in the United States

Utilizes the IS-95 standard and is implemented as the next generation for cellular systems.

The CDMA system coexists with the current analog system


Digial AMPS (D-AMPS)

Also called North American Digital Cellular (NADC)

The D-AMPS is designed to coexist with current cellular systems

Relies on both the IS-54 and the IS-136 standards


Global system for mobile communication (GSM)

The European standard for digital cellular systems operating in the 900-MHs band

This technology offers international roaming, high speed quality, increased security, and the ability to develop advanced system features

It was completed by a consortium of 80 pan-European countries working togetherTo provide integrated cellular systems across

different borders and cultures


Total-access communications system (TACS)

Derived from AMPS technologyThe first system was implemented in

EnglandLater these systems were installed in

Europe, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Middle East

A variation of this standard (JTACS) was implemented in Japan


Integrated dispatch enhanced network (iDEN)

iDEN utilizes a digital radio format called quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and is a derivative of GSM

WLAN


802.11

802.11a, 802.11b (WiFi), and 802.11g802.11a operates in the 5-GHz

Unlicensed national information infrastructure (UNII) band

802.11b and 802.11g operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band along with Bluetooth

See Table 1.2


Comparisons between 802.11 and Bluetooth


WLAN

The 802.11 specifications were designed initially as a wireless extension for a corporate LAN for enterprise applications

Numerous devices have been manufactured to this specificationThe 802.11b protocol is a shared medium and

utilizes a listen-before-talk protocol called collision sense multiple access/collision avoidance (CSMA/CA)


WLAN

IEEE 802.11 is important for wireless mobility It provides direct mobile data interoperability

between LAN of a corporation and the wireless operator’s system


HiperLan/2

Developed by European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI)

Physical layer (similar with 802.11a) uses orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and is developed in the 5-GHz band

Media-specific access control protocol (MAC) layer uses time-division multiple access (TDMA) format as compared to 802.11a which uses OFDM

Bluetooth Technology


Bluetooth

Operates in the 2.4-GHz industrial-scientific medical (ISM) bandAllowing wireless connectivity between mobile

phones, PDAs, and other similar deviceIs meant to replace the infrared telemetry

portion on mobile phones and PDAsEnabling extended range and flexibility in

addition to enhanced service


Bluetooth

Range is from 10 to 100 meters (m)The protocol does not require line of sight

(LOS) for establishing communicationThe pattern is omnidirectional Delivering data over radio For short distance
