IMT-2000 and UMTSThe Third Generation Mobile System
2
IMT-2000• IMT-2000 stands for IMT: International Mobile Communications 2000: the frequency range of 2000 MHz and the year 2000
• In total, 17 proposals for different IMT-2000 standards were submitted by regional SDOs to ITU in 1998. 11 proposals for terrestrial systems and 6 for mobile satellite systems (MSSs).
• All 3G standards have been developed by regional standard developing organizations (SDOs).
• Evaluation of the proposals was completed in 1998, and negotiations to build a consensus among different views were completed in mid 1999. All 17 proposals have been accepted by ITU as IMT-2000 standards. The specification for the Radio Transmission Technology (RTT) was released at the end of 1999.

IMT-2000
• The (IMT-2000), consists of 3 operating modes based on Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology.
• 3G CDMA modes are most commonly known as:– CDMA2000,– WCDMA (called UMTS) and– TD-SCDMA
(Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access)
4
IMT-2000The main characteristics of 3G systems, known collectively as IMT-2000, are a single family of compatible standards that have the following characteristics:
• Used worldwide
• Used for all mobile applications
• Support both packet-switched and circuit-switched data transmission
• Improved system capacity (traffic handling)
• Backward compatibility with second-generation (2G) systems
• Offer high data rates up to 2 Mbps (depending on mobility/velocity)
• Offer high spectrum efficiency
5
High-Speed Packet Data Services
• 2 Mbps in fixed or in-building environments (very short distances, in the order of metres)
• 384 kbps in pedestrian or urban environments
• 144 kbps in wide area mobile environments
• Variable data rates in large geographic area systems (satellite)

Towards 3G

UMTSUMTS is being developed by Third-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), a joint venture of several SDOs (Standard Developing Organisations).
• ETSI (Europe)
• Telecommunication Technology Committee (TTC) (Japan)
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) T-1 (USA)
• Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA) (South Korea)
• Chinese Wireless Telecommunication Standard (CWTS) (China)
To reach global acceptance, 3GPP is introducing UMTS in releases. The first release (UMTS Rel. ´99) defines enhancements and transitions for existing GSM networks.

Network Elements from UMTS
UMTS differs from GSM Phase 2+ (GSM +GPRS) mostly in the new principles for the air interface transmission
WCDMA instead of TDMA/FDMA
Therefore a new RAN (Radio Access Network) called:
UTRAN (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network) must be introduced with UMTS
Only minor modifications are needed in the CN (Core Network) to accommodate the change
12
UTRA: UMTS Terrestrial Radio AccessThe most significant change in REL. ´99 was the “UTRAN”, a W-CDMA radio interface for land-based communications.
UTRAN supports time (TDD) and frequency division duplex (FDD).
The TDD mode is optimized for public micro and pico cells and unlicensed cordless applications.
The FDD mode is optimized for wide-area coverage, i.e. public macro and micro cells.
Both modes offer flexible and dynamic data rates up to 2 Mbps.

UTRANTwo new network elements are introduced in UTRAN
• RNC
• Node B
UTRAN is subdivided into individual radio network systems (RNSs), where each RNS is controlled by an RNC.
The RNC is connected to a set of Node B elements, each of which can serve one or several cells.
UTRAN architecture
UTRAN comprises several RNSs
Node B can support FDD or TDD or both
RNC is responsible for handover decisions requiring signaling to the UE
Cell offers FDD or TDD

The Core Network (CN) and the Interface Iu, are separated into two logical domains:
qCircuit Switched Domain (CSD)• Circuit switched service incl. signaling• Resource reservation at connection setup• GSM components (MSC, GMSC, VLR)• IuCS
qPacket Switched Domain (PSD)• GPRS components (SGSN, GGSN)• IuPS
Access method CDMA
•CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)–all terminals send on the same frequency probably at
the same time and can use the whole bandwidth of the transmission channel
–each sender has a unique random number, the sender XORs the signal with this pseudo random number
–the receiver can “tune” into this signal if it knows the pseudo random number, tuning is done via a correlation function

Spreading and scrambling of user data
• Constant chip rate of 3.84 Mchip/s
• Different user data rates supported via different spreading factors– higher data rate: less chips per bit and vice versa
• User separation via unique, quasi orthogonal scrambling codes– users are not separated via orthogonal spreading codes– much simpler management of codes: each mobile can use the same

• Sender A
– sends Ad = 1, key Ak = 010011 (assign: „0“= -1, „1“= +1)
– sending signal As = Ad * Ak = (-1, +1, -1, -1, +1, +1)
• Sender B
– sends Bd = 0, key Bk = 110101 (assign: „0“= -1, „1“= +1)
– sending signal Bs = Bd * Bk = (-1, -1, +1, -1, +1, -1)
• Both signals superimpose in space
– interference neglected (noise etc.)
– As + Bs = (-2, 0, 0, -2, +2, 0)
• Receiver wants to receive signal from sender A
– apply key Ak bitwise (inner product)
Ae = (-2, 0, 0, -2, +2, 0) • Ak
(-2, 0, 0, -2, +2, 0) • (-1, +1, -1, -1, +1, +1)= 2 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 2 + 0 = 6
•result greater than 0, therefore, original bit was „1“
– receiving B
Be = (-2, 0, 0, -2, 2, 0) • Bk
( -2, 0, 0,- 2,- 2, 0) • (1, 1, -1, +1, -1, +1) = -6, i.e. „0“

The Beauty ContestTen companies asked for one out of four licences
Licences were given to
• Vodaphone• Tele2• Hi3G• Orange
The incumbent, Telia, was not given a licence!!!
39
UMTS in SwedenThe licensees have to cover 8 860 000 inhabitants.
Two joint ventures:
Svenska UMTS nät - Tele2 and TeliaTelia and Tele2 have established a joint venture, Svenska UMTS nät, with a common 3G network.
3GIS – Telenor and 3*To meet the regulatory requirements, Telenor and 3 has build individualnetworks, and each has to cover 30% of the population. Telenor and 3 have established a joint venture, 3G Infrastructure Services(3GIS) with a common shared network. This network coversapproximately 70% of the population.
Björkdahl & Bohlin

Network coverageTheoretically it is possible to cover 8 860 000 inhabitants by covering 20 400 km² of Sweden’s surface area. (Swedish total area is 411 000 km².) Theoretical level corresponds to a coverage of 5% of the Swedish area.
In practice, it seems reasonable that the operators will aim for a total coverage of around 170 000 km². This corresponds to a coverage of 41% of the Swedish surface area.
The operators will be able to cover all urban areas and 84% of the inhabitants by covering around 11 000 km². This corresponds to a coverage of 2.7% of the Swedish surface area.

Summary of main findings
•The average 3G network investment per operator is estimated to be SEK 6.1 billion.
•The total 3G network investment in Sweden is estimated to be SEK 24 billion.
•If the Swedish joint ventures co-operate in rural areas the total 3G network investment is estimated to be SEK 19 billion.
