Frequency
Number of cycles per unit of time
Phase
The offset of the Signal
Obstruction
When a signal propagates through an obstruction it is attenuated
Knife-Edge diffraction
Direct path is blocked by obstruction, however some signal can go around Additional Loss is introduced
Reflection
Signal can be reflected off certain surfaces (i.e. Glass, Water) This could degrade or improve the signal
Cellular Systems
Single Cell
Advantages:
Simple System
Disadvantages:
Coverage constraints Limited number of conversations
Multi-cell
Advantages:
More cells allow the same channels to be reused in multiple areas, allowing more conversations and more capacity Mobiles can be made smaller with lower transmit power
Disadvantages:
More complicated system: handoffs required
Frequency Reuse
