Cellular Network Basics • There are many types of cellular services; • Cellular network/telephony is a radio-based technology;
radio waves are electromagnetic waves that antennas propagate
• Most signals are in the 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 1900 MHz frequency bands
Cell phones operate in this frequency range (note the logarithmic scale)
![Page 6: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cellular Network• Base stations transmit to and receive from mobiles at the
assigned spectrum• Multiple base stations use the same spectrum (spectral
reuse)• The service area of each base station is called a cell• Each mobile terminal is typically served by the ‘closest’
base stations• Handoff when terminals move

UMTS Network Architecture• UMTS network architecture consists of three domains
– Core Network (CN): Provide switching, routing and transit for user traffic
– UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN): Provides the air interface access method for user equipment.
– User Equipment (UE): Terminals work as air interface counterpart for base stations. The various identities are: IMSI, TMSI, P-TMSI, TLLI, MSISDN, IMEI, IMEISV
![Page 16: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
UTRAN• Wide band CDMA technology is selected for UTRAN air interface
– WCDMA– TD-SCDMA
• Base stations are referred to as Node-B and control equipment for Node-B is called as Radio Network Controller (RNC).– Functions of Node-B are
• Air Interface Tx/Rx• Modulation/Demodulation
– Functions of RNC are:• Radio Resource Control• Channel Allocation• Power Control Settings• Handover Control• Ciphering• Segmentation and reassembly

Multiple Access Technique
• Multiple Access – Achieved by dividing the available radio frequency spectrum, so that multiple users can be given access at the same time.
• FDMA - Frequency Division Multiple Access– ( eg: GSM each Frequency channel is 200KHz)
• TDMA - Time Division Multiple Access– ( eg: GSM each frequency channel is divided into
8 timeslots)• CDMA - Code Division Multiple Access
– (eg: IS95- Each User data is coded with a unique code)
![Page 29: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Duplex Technique
• Duplex - How the up link and Down link of a user is separated
• FDD - Frequency Division Duplex– (eg:In GSM the up link and down link of a user is
separated by 45MHz )
• TDD - Time Division Duplex – (the up link and down link of a user will be at the same
frequency but at different Time )

GSM utilizes two bands of 25 MHz. 890-915 MHz band is used for uplink while the 935-960 MHz is used for downlink.
The frequency bands are divided into 200 KHz wide channels called ARFCNs (Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Numbers) i.e. there are 125 ARFCNs out of which only 124 are used.
Each ARFCN supports 8 users with each user transmitting / receiving on a particular time slot (TS).

Channels : differentiating between Physical and Logical channelsPhysical channels : The combination of an ARFCN and a time slot defines a physical channel.
Logical channels : These are channels specified by GSM which are mapped on physical channels.
![Page 78: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
81
Physical channel:One timeslot of a TDMA-frame on one carrieris referred to as a physical channel.There are 8 physical channels per carrier inGSM,channel 0-7(timeslot 0-7)
Logical channel:A great variety of information must be transmitted between BTS and the MS,for e.g.user data and control signaling.Dependingon the kind of information transmitted we refer to different logical channels.These logicalchannels are mapped on physical channel.

Broadcast channels BCH • Broadcast Channel-BCH
– Alloted one ARFCN & is ON all the time in every cell. Present in TS0 and other 7 TS used by TCH.
• Frequency correction channel-FCCH – To make sure this is the BCCH carrier.– Allow the MS to synchronize to the frequency.– Carries a 142 bit zero sequence and repeats once in every
10 frames on the BCH.
• Synchronization Channel-SCH– This is used by the MS to synchronize to the TDMA frame
structure within the particular cell.– Listening to the SCH the MS receives the TDMA frame
number and also the BSIC ( in the coded part- 39 bits).– Repeats once in every 10 frames.
![Page 82: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
85
Broadcast channels BCH ...• BCCH
– The last information the MS must receive in order to receive calls or make calls is some information concerning the cell. This is BCCH.
– This include the information of Max power allowed in the cell.
– List of channels in use in the cell.– BCCH carriers for the neighboring cells,Location Area
Identity etc.– BCCH occupies 4 frames (normal bursts) on BCH and
repeats once every Multiframe.– This is transmitted Downlink point to multipoint.
• Cell Broadcast Channel - CBCH– Used for the Transmission of generally accessible
information like Short Message Services(SMS)
![Page 83: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
86
Common Control Channels CCCH• CCCH-
– Shares TS-0 with BCH on a Multiframe.
• Random access channel-RACH:– Used by Mobile Station for requesting for a channel. When
the mobile realizes it is paged it answers by requesting a signaling channel (SDCCH) on RACH. RACH is also used by the MS if it wants to originate a call.
– Initially MS doesn’t know the path delay (timing advance), hence uses a short burst (with a large guard period = 68.25 bits).
– MS sends normal burst only after getting the timing advance info on the SACCH.
– It is transmitted in Uplink point to point.
![Page 84: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
87
Common Control Channels CCCH ..• Access Grant Channel-AGCH
– On request for a signaling channel by MS the network assigns a signaling channel(SDCCH) through AGCH. AGCH is transmitted on the downlink point to point.
• Paging Channel-PCH– The information on this channel is a paging message
including the MS’s identity(IMSI/TMSI).This is transmitted on Downlink, point-to-multipoint.
![Page 85: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
88
Dedicated Control Channels-DCCH• Stand alone dedicated control channel(SDCCH)• AGCH assigns SDCCH as signaling channel on
request by MS.The MS is informed about which frequency(ARFCN) & timeslot to use for traffic.
• Used for location update, subscriber authentication, ciphering information, equipment validation and assignment of TCH.
• This is used both sides, up and Downlink point-point.
![Page 86: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
89
Dedicated Control Channels-DCCH• Slow associated control channel-SACCH
– Transmission of radio link signal measurement, power control etc.
– Average signal strengths(RXLev) and quality of service (RXQual) of the serving base station and of the neighboring cells is sent on SACCH (on uplink).
– Mobile receives information like what TX power it has to transmit and the timing advance. It is associated with TCH or SDCCH
• Fast associated control channel-FACCH– Used for Hand over commands and during call setup and
release. FACCH data is sent over TCH with stealing flag set
![Page 87: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
90
Traffic Channels-TCH
• TCH carries the voice data.• Two blocks of 57 bits contain voice data in the normal
burst.• One TCH is allocated for every active call.• Full rate traffic channel occupies one physical
channel(one TS on a carrier) and carries voice data at 13kbps
• Two half rate (6.5kbps) TCHs can share one physical channel.

GSM Radio Link
• Speech Coding -Done at Transcoder of BSC and MS– The Linear Predictive Coder uses RPE-LTP(Regular Pulse
Excitation- Long Term Prediction)– Converts 64kbps voice to 13kbps(260 bits every 20ms)
• Channel Coding - Done at BTS and MS– Uses Convolution Coding and CRC (Cyclic Redundancy
Check)– Converts 13 kbps to 22.8 kbps (456 bits per 20ms)
![Page 103: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)

GSM Radio Link
• Bit Interleaving - Done at BTS and MS• Encryption - Done at BTS and MS
– EX OR data with cipher block, which is generated by applying A5 Algorithm to the Ciphering Key(Kc)
• Multiplexing - Done at BTS • Modulation - Done at BTS and MS
– GMSK(Gaussian filtered Minimum Shift Keying)– Phase change of +90 for 0 and -90 for 1

Transmission on the radio channels
• A timeslot has a duration of .577 m seconds (148 Bits)• 8 timeslots(8 x 0.577 = 4.62 ms) form a TDMA frame• If a mobile is assigned one TS it transmits only in this time
slot• and stays idle for the other 7 with its transmitter off, called
bursting• The start on the uplink is delayed from downlink by 3 TS
periods• One TS = duration of 156.25 bits, and its physical contents
is • called a burst

Location Updates
Location Updates can be classified into two:
Periodic Location Updates:
This occurs as per the timer set by the network operator. If the MS does not perform this update the MSC marks the MS as ‘Detached’ on the VLR.
Location Update on a handover:
This occurs if during a handover the MS is moved into a new Location Area Code (LAC).
![Page 160: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/160.jpg)
169Back
1. The MS is monitoring the BCCH and has all the decoded information stored on the SIM ( including the LAC)
2. As soon as the mobile is on a TCH it sends the signal strength indication on the corresponding SACCH
3. The BSC monitors the signal strengths and on analysis sends a ‘handoff request’ on FACCH. The handoff process is completed on the FACCH.
4. After the completion of call, the MS starts monitoring the BCCH again. On finding the LAC (stored on SIM) and that decoded from the BCCH to be different , the MS requests a ‘Location Update’ through SDCCH.

Discontinuous Transmission
• Discontinuous Transmission(DTX) allows the radio transmitter to be switched off most of the time during speech pauses.
• A Silence Indicator Block is transmitted at 500bps, which generates a comfort noise
• Down Link interference is decreased.• Up link battery is saved
![Page 162: Gsm Overview](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563dbafc550346aa9aa9534c/html5/thumbnails/162.jpg)
171
Frequency Hopping• Frequency Hopping permits the dynamic
switching of radio links from one carrier frequency to another.
• Base Band Hopping– At the BTS each the timeslot is shifted to
another transceiver, which is transmitting at the hop frequency. User will be connected to different Transceivers depending on hop sequence.
• Synthesis Hopping– At the BTS transceiver changes the
frequencies used. The user will be connected to only one transceiver.
• Decreases the probability of interference• Suppresses the effect of Rayleigh fading

Calculation of the maximum coverage range of each cell in a specific environment.
Definition of planning tools parameters.
Based on the path loss calculation between the MS and the BS in both ways.
This calculation considers:
• RF parameters of MS and BS,• system parameters (diversity gains...),• propagation parameters (shadowing),• physical installation parameters (antenna height),• environment classification.

- What is the maximum EIRP?- What are the losses in
transmission and reception?- Is diversity used? - What is the minimum
equivalent sensitivity?- What is the maximum
equivalent output power?- What are the body losses?
- Beyond which distance the communication will cut off?
- Is indoor coverage guaranteed?
- Is frequency hopping used?
