Transmission medium
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Why Wireless? (cont.)
The kinds of transmission medium :

1- Twisted-pair:
It is very low bandwidth and it is easily tapped either physically or by
monitoring its electromagnetic radiation

2- Coaxial cable:
It is greater bandwidth than twisted-pair but it is very expensive.

3- optical fibers:
It is very high bandwidth , very high bit rate and inherently transmission
medium.






Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Why Wireless? (cont.)
Although, On a wired transmission link (copper or fiber optic), the characteristics
of the medium are very well controlled and easily predicted

It still fixed and limit the mobility of the user

While the wireless (Radio) telecommunication bridged the distances between
people who wish to Communicate while they move.

So, we will use the radio waves to transmit and receive.

But first we need to know the properties of these waves.

1985 Standardization for second generation digital cellular systems is initialized.

1992 GSM900 in World Wide.

1993 GSM1800 in Europe.

1994 GSM1900 was firstly commercial.

Global System for Mobile (GSM) is a second-generation digital cellular
telephone system.

GSM became the world's leading and fastest growing mobile standard, spanning
over 174 countries, serving more than one in ten of the world's population.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Difference between 1G and 2G mobile networks
The main difference between 1G networks and 2G networks is
1 G systems was analog but 2 G systems was digital

The analog mobile systems have main restrictions of:
the limited capacity,
voice-only services
high operational cost.
different systems are incompatible in terms of equipment and operation, e.g
NMT and TACS.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Difference between 1G and 2G mobile networks
Capacity
While with digital systems such as GSM,
the available frequency spectrum is used more efficiently, leading to
increased capacity
reductions in associated costs for network operators, equipment
suppliers and subscribers.

Services
Analog mobile systems were originally designed for voice
digital mobile systems can support voice, data and a range of
additional services such as:
a short message service
call forwarding
ISDN compatible.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Introduction to mobile systems (2.5G)
GSM offers circuit-switched with good voice quality, but it is providing data rates
of 9.6 kbps which is too slow.

In 1999 General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) reuses the existing GSM
infrastructure to provide higher data rate

It was lunched to increase the data rate to 115 kbps by:
using the packet-switched in data transmission
Defining new coding scheme.

In 2001 Evolved Data rate for GSM Evolution (EDGE) offers data rate of 384
kbps by using new modulation scheme(8psk)

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Introduction to mobile systems (North America)
In 1993 Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a second-
generation digital cellular telephone system that was first deployed.
CDMAOne describes a complete wireless system based on the
TIA/EIA IS-95 CDMA standard, including IS-95A and IS-95B
revisions.
IS 95A provides data rate up to 9.6Kbps/14.4Kbps

3G Systems

In 2000 the ITU-T was responsible for the IMT-2000 specification, which is meant
to be a guideline for every 3G standard

Universal Mobile Telecommunication Service (UMTS) is the marketing name for
the 3G has two standardization bodies:

1- 3GPP which uses the W-CDMA technology.

2- 3GPP2 which uses the CDMA2000 technology.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
WCDMA as a 3G Approach
The 3G solution for GSM is called WCDMA (Wideband CDMA).

WCDMA requires a new radio spectrum as it operates in ultra wide 5-MHz
radio channels.

WCDMA meets the IMT-2000 requirements of 384 kbps outdoors and 2 Mbps
indoors.

The earliest deployment was by NTT DoCoMo.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010

Wireless Challenges
To provide coverage for a large service area of a mobile network we
have two Options:

(A) Install one transceiver with high radio power at the center of the service
area

Drawbacks:
The mobile equipments used in this network should have high output
power in order to be able to transmit signals across the coverage area So,
Powerful transmitters & huge equipment are required.
The usage of the radio resources would be limited, So, Capacity is limited
to the frequency band allocated.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Wireless Challenges
(B) Divide the service area into smaller areas (cells)
Advantages:
Each cell as well as the mobile handsets will have relatively small power
transceivers.
The frequency spectrum might be reused in two far
separated cells. This yields:
1- Unlimited capacity of the system.
2- Good interference characteristics

So, The solution is going to
Cellular Systems

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Cellular System Concepts

The Area to be covered is divided into
small cells.
So,
Low Transmission power.
Smaller equipment size.
Capacity of the system can be
increased,
Ex.: In the figure:
Capacity of one big cell =
Capacity of the band Capacity of cellular design = 7 * Capacity of one big cell.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
The Base Station Controller (BSC)
Manages the Radio Communication with the mobile station over the air
interface.

Supervises the transmission network and the operation of each BTS

The BSC is the central node within a BSS and co-ordinates the actions of
Base Stations. (i.e. The BSC controls a major part of the radio network)

BTS configuration: This involves the allocation of codes to channel
combinations and power levels for each cell according to available equipment.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
The Mobile Services Switching Center (MSC)
The primary node in a CDMA network is the MSC. It is the node, which
controls calls both to MSs and from MSs. The primary functions of an MSC
include the following:

Administers its Base Station Controllers BSC(s).
Switches calls to/from mobile subscribers.
Records charging and accounting details
Provides the gateway functionality to other networks.
Service provisioning.
Control of connected BSCs.
Provides the gateway functionality to other networks.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Gateway Mobile Switching Center (GMSC):

Gateway functionality enables an MSC to interrogate a HLR in order to route a
mobile terminating call. It is not used in calls from MSs to any terminal other than
another MS.


For example, if a person connected to the PSTN wants to make a call to a CDMA
mobile subscriber, then the PSTN exchange will access the CDMA network by
first connecting the call to a GMSC

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Home Location Register (HLR)
The HLR is a centralized network database that stores and manages all mobile
subscriptions belonging to a specific operator.

It acts as a permanent store for a persons subscription information until that
subscription is cancelled.

The primary functions of the HLR include:
Stores for each mobile subscriber:
Basic subscriber categories.
Supplementary services.
Current location.
Allowed/barred services.
Authentication data.
Subscription database management
Controls the routing of mobile terminated calls and SMS.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Visitor Location Register (VLR)
The role of a VLR in a CDMA network is to act as a temporary storage location for
subscription information for MSs, which are within a particular MSC service area.

Thus, there is one VLR for each MSC service area. This means that the MSC
does not
have to contact the HLR (which may be located in another country) every time
the
subscriber uses a service or changes its status.

The VLR may be integrated with the MSC.

For the duration when the MS is within one MSC service area, then the VLR
contains a
complete copy of the necessary subscription details, including the following
information:
Identity numbers for the subscriber
Supplementary service information (e.g. Does the subscriber has call waiting
activated or not)
Activity of MS (e.g. idle or busy)
Current Location Area of MS


Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Short Message Center (MC or SC)
As an independent entity in the CDMA cellular mobile communication system

the short message center works in coordination with other entities such as MSC
and HLR

Functions of SMC
to implement the reception, storing and transfer of the short messages from
CDMA cellular mobile communication system subscribers,
and store subscriber-related short message data.
Manages the resend of the SMS
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010

Why we need such technologies
To provide a high-speed, low delay multiplexing and switching network to any
type of user traffic, such as voice support, data,or video applications

Examples for switching techniques used
ATM
SS7




Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
What is ATM?
ATM for Telecommunications is Asynchronous Transfer Mode,
(not Automatic Teller Machine!).
ATM is a technology that has transport, switching, network
management, and customer services built into it right from the
start.
In general, ATM means that traffic is carried in small, fixed-
length packets called cells.
A technology that integrates advantages of circuit switch and
packet switch.
ATM can support any type of user services, such as voice, data,
or video service.

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
ATM Overview
53byte fixed length cell= 5Bytes cell header+48Bytes

ATMs Advantage
Integration of various services such as voice, image, video, data and
multimedia.
Standardization of network structures and components. This results in
cost savings for network providers.
Transmission that is independent of the medium used PDH, SDH,
SONET and other media can be used to transport ATM cells.
ATM is scaleable, i.e. the bandwidth can be adapted extremely flexibly to
meet user requirements.
Guaranteed transmission quality to match the service required by the
user (quality of service, QoS).
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Connectionless & Connection-oriented
Connectionless: Every packet is
transferred from different routes, so
the receiving order of packets
doesnt possibly depend on the
sending order.
Connection-oriented : All packets
are transferred from the same
route , so the receiving order of
packets depends on the sending
order. Time delay is fixed.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Traditional Switch Models Characteristic
- Circuit Switching
Data is sent from the same route, so time delay is fixed
High-speed switching
Fixed rate
- Packet Switching
Support multi-rate switching
Take full advantage of bandwidth/waste of bandwidth
Time delay is not fixed

ATM Cell
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
ATM Cell
GFC ( Generic Flow Control): It is intended for control of a possible bus
system at the user interface and is not used at the moment.
VPI ( Virtual Path Identifier): The VPI contains the second part of the
addressing instructions and is of higher priority than the VCI.
VCI ( Virtual Channel Identifier): VCI in each case indicates a path section
between switching centers or between the switching center and the
subscriber.
PTI ( Payload Type Identifier): Indicates the type of data in the information
field.
CLP ( Cell Loss Priority): Determines whether a cell can be preferentially
deleted or not in the case of a transmission bottleneck.
HEC ( Header Error Control): Provided in order to control and, to some
extent, correct errors in the header data that may occur. The HEC is used to
synchronize the receiver to the start of the cell.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
VP and VC
Why two fields?
think VPI as a bundle of virtual
channels. (256 VPI on one link)

CDMA Principals
The core idea that makes CDMA possible was first explained by Claude
Shannon, a Bell Labs research mathematician

Shannon's work relates amount of information carried, channel
bandwidth, signal-to-noise-ratio, and detection error probability
It shows the theoretical upper limit attainable

In 1948 Claude Shannon published his landmark paper on information
theory, A Mathematical Theory of Communication.

He observed that "the fundamental problem of communication is that
of reproducing at one point either exactly or approximately a message
selected at another point." His paper so clearly established the
foundations of information theory that his framework and terminology are
standard today.

SHANNONS CAPACITY EQUATION


C = Bw log

[ 1 + S/N ]

Bw = bandwidth of the signal in Hertz
C = channel capacity in bits/second
S = signal power
N = noise power

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Spread Spectrum
By a small amount of analysis in Shannon equation we can see that the:
bandwidth of the signal (Bw) is inversely proportional to the signal power









This result can be used to serve more than one user by the same frequency in the
same time by generating a new dimension to discriminate between the different
users and make the spreading process
So, the question is how to make the spreading process

Processing Gain (CDMA Spreading Gain)

Processing gain is the ratio of a spreading rate to a data rate.

Consider a user with a 9600 bps vocoder talking on a CDMA signal
1,228,800 Hz wide.

So, the processing gain is 1,228,800/9600 = 128.

The processing gain in IS-95 system is 128, about 21dB.

The processing gain is calculated as follows:
10 x log

128 = 21db

64 Sequences, each 64 chips long
A chip is a binary digit (0 or 1)
Each Walsh Code is Orthogonal to all other Walsh Codes
This means that it is possible to recognize and therefore extract a
particular Walsh code from a mixture of other Walsh codes which are
filtered out in the process
In forward direction, each symbol is spread with Walsh code
Walsh code is used to distinguish the user in forward link
For IS95A/B, in the reverse, every 6 symbols correspond to one Walsh code.
For example, if the symbol input is 110011,the output after spreading is

Effects on Radio Communication
Signal degradation can be classified by type :

Path Loss
During distance covered by the radio signal, it is called Free space
path loss , it can be calculated by LFS = 32.44 + 20 log F (MHz) +
20 log d (Km)
Signal attenuation
Resulting from shadowing effects introduced by the obstacles between
transmitter and receiver
Fading of the signal
Caused by numerous effects all of which are related to the Radio
propagation phenomenon
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Effects on Radio Communication
the Radio propagation phenomenon
Reflection
Propagating wave impinges on an object which is large compared to
wavelength
E.g., the surface of the Earth, buildings, walls, etc.
Diffraction
Radio path between transmitter and receiver obstructed by surface with
sharp irregular edge
Waves bend around the obstacle, even when LOS does not exist
Scattering
Objects smaller than the wavelength of the propagating wave
E.g., foliage, street signs, lamp posts
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Fading Problems
1. Shadowing (Normal fading):
The reason for shadowing is the presence of obstacles like large hills or
buildings in the path between the site and the mobile.
The signal strength received fluctuates around a mean value while changing
the mobile position resulting in undesirable beats in the speech signal.

2. Rayleigh Fading (Multi-path Fading):
The received signal is coming from different paths due to a series of
reflection on many obstacles. The difference in paths leads to a difference in
paths of the received components.

2. Antenna diversity (Space Diversity)
The cell transceiver will use two receiving antennas instead of one. They
will be separated by a distance of about (10* ), and they will receive radio
signals independently, so they will be affected differently by the fading dips
and the better signal received will then be selected.

Space diversity
That means we can use two antennas for receiving instead of one
antenna to avoid the fading of the signal at a certain receiving point

The RAKE Receivers
To avoid the multi-path effect there are several RAKE Receivers in
the mobile station and the base station where the signals which
arrives at mobile station at different time will be demodulated
separately and will be given a different time delay so as to keep them
in phase and the Mobile station will perform vector adding of these
signals

Analog to Digital converter

In CDMA system the signal is sampled by 8KHZ (or 8 K sample per second) with
each sample using 13 bits with linear quantization, which gives an input data rate
of 104 Kbps.

Then it is broken into 20ms frames.

But because the air resource in a wireless system is very precious, a more
effective coding mode is needed to use a rate as low as possible in the case
where voice quality is guaranteed which is the function of source coding.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Source Coding
Source Coding in CDMA is done by Vocoder
vocoder is such a device the main principles of it are to extract some voice feature
parameters when a person speaks and transmit these feature parameters to the
peer party. Then, the peer party will recover the voice with these parameters
based on the promise between the two parties.
Meanwhile, the codes transmitted from the transmit end to the receive end and
describing voice feature parameters vary with:
speech activity
total bit error rate.
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Source Coding
Where this Vocoder has two rates:
8K QCELP (Rate Set 1: 9600, 4800, 2400 and 120 bps)
13K QCELP (Rate Set 2: 14400, 7200, 3600 and 1800 bps)
The third voice code is the Extended Variable Rate Coder (EVRC) which has
a full rate output of 8Kbps in QCELP but has voce quality very closer to the
13Kbps in QCELP

It can be seen from the figure that the data are read row by row into an

is called interleaving) and propagated after other modulation process .

Then, the data enter the interleaver at the receive end row by row and
are read out column by column (this process is called de-interleaving)

Phase reference
Separation by phase provides for extremely high reuse within one CDMA

Pilot Channel Generation
The Walsh function zero spreading sequence is applied to the Pilot

The use of short PN sequence offsets allows for up to 512 (2
15
/64) distinct Pilots
per CDMA channel ( frequency carrier)

The PN offset index value (0-511 inclusive) for a given pilot PN sequence is
multiplied by 64 to determine the actual offset
Example: 15 (offset index) x 64 = 960 PN chips
Result: The start of the pilot PN sequence will be delayed
960 chips x 0.8138 microseconds per chip = 781.25 microsecond

What is pilot acquisition?
Pilot Channel Acquisition procedure
The mobile station starts generating the I and Q PN short sequences by itself
and correlating them with the received composite signal at every possible
offset.
In less than 15 seconds (typically 2 to 4 seconds) all possibilities (32,768) are
checked.
The mobile station remembers the offsets for which it gets the best correlation
(where the E
b
/N
0
is the best.)
The mobile station locks on the best pilot (at the offset that results in the best
E
b
/N

), and identifies the pattern for defining the start of the short sequences
Now the mobile station is ready to start de-correlating the SYNCH channel

The 384 modulation symbols in a frame are input into a 24 by 16 block interleave array and read down
by columns, from left to right
Adjacent symbols are now separated in time This separation combats the effect of fast fading
A burst of errors could effect the area in red above and after the frame is written into the block de-
interleave function at the mobile we see the errors are spread out instead of being in consecutive order.

PN chip is modulo-2 added to a symbol
Randomize transmitted data
Effects of all 1s or 0s' traffic (impulse-like) is reduced as the stream of
ones or zeros will cause that the receiver may loss the synchronization
with the transmitter as there is any changes in transmitted data
Eliminates probability of Pilot Reuse Error
Mobile might demodulate a distant cell with same PN offset

Power Control Sub-channel
A power control sub-channel is transmitted continuously every 1.25ms (or
800HZ)
BTS instruct MS to change its power level by +1dB. A 0 power control bit
requests the MS to increase its power. A 1 power control bit instruct the MS
to decrease its power
Each power control bit has a bit time of two of data bit (for Rate set 1)
A puncturing technique: The 1/(64*24) long code is used to randomize the

Composite I and Q
Each channel card has a combiner and
works in a serial array to combine the I
and Q signals for all forward channels
in a partition sector or cell.

The base band I and Q signals for all
channel cards are sent to the CORE
module to be multiplexed together
based on the PN offset.

This ensures that a mobile station does
not mistakenly decode the signal from a
channel with the same Walsh code from
the wrong base station.

Each Access Channel is associated with only one Paging Channel

Up to 32 access channels (0-31) are supported per Paging Channel

Message attempts are randomized to reduce probability of collision

Two message types:
A response message (in response to a base station message)
A request message (sent autonomously by the mobile station)

Difference between IS95A and IS-95B
What is IS95B?

IS-95B is based on and compatible completely with IS-95A.

The main difference :

Increase the supplemental code channels to enhance the data rate. A
single user can be assigned less than 8 code channels (1 FCH + 7
SCCH)the highest data rate being 76.8 (rate set 1) / 115.2kbps (rate
set 2).

Turbo Code
Use a Turbo code during the transmission of a large data packet.

Characteristics of the Turbo code:

The input information shall be encoded twice and the two output codes can
exchange information with each other during decoding.
The symbol is protected not only by the neighborhood check bits, but
by the other check bits.

The performance of a Turbo code is superior to that of a convolutional code.

Reverse HPSK Modulation

The CDMA 1X adopts forward QPSK modulation like the IS-95 system, but
adopts HPSK modulation in the reverse.

HPSK ( Hybrid PSK ), namely, OCQPSK ( Orthogonal Complex QPSK ). The
functions are as follows:
Reduce the linear requirement for the power amplification of a mobile
station.

Reverse Supplemental Channel (R-SCH)
Used for high-speed packet data (>9.6 kbps)
Difference between F-SCH and R-SCH is in Walsh code based spreading

F-SCH supports Walsh code lengths of 4 to 128 (1xRTT) or 1024
(3xRTT) depending on data rate and chip rate
R-SCH uses either a 2-digit or 4-digit Walsh code; rate matching done
by repetition of encoded and interleaved symbols
Walsh code allocation sequence is pre-determined and common to
all mobiles
Users are differentiated using long PN code with user mask

Reverse Pilot Channel (R-PICH)

Mobile transmits well-known pattern (pilot)

Allows base station to do timing corrections without having to guess
where mobile is (in search window)

Mobile can transmit at lower power, reducing interference to others
Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Quick Paging Channel (F-QPCH)
More efficient monitoring of paging channel by mobile, enhancement to slotted paging
Mobile monitors QPCH to determine if there is a page forthcoming on paging channel
in its slot (looks at 1-bit paging indicator)
If no flag, then mobile goes back to sleep; if flag, then mobile monitors appropriate slot
and decodes general page message
Without QPCH, mobile must monitor regular paging channel slot and decode several
fields to determine whether page is for it or not; this drains mobile batteries quickly
The main purpose of QPCH is to save mobile battery life.

F-CPCCH

Common Power Control Channel tightly controls power of mobiles accessing the
system using R-EACH or RCCCH

One CPCCH can transmit power control data for up to 24

reverse channels (each is either an R-EACH or an RCCCH) 12 channels of
power control on the I channel, 12 on the Q channel

The CPCCH increases system capacity by better control of mobile power during
access mode

Broadcast Channel F-BCH
40 ms frames with slots of 40, 80, or 160 ms
Carries only Overhead messages transmitted at 19.2, 9.6, or 4.8 kbps

Common Control Channel
Uses 20, 10, or 5 ms frames
Transmits signaling messages at 9.6, 19.2, or 38.4 kbps
Handles all other signaling directed to mobiles

F-FACH
What is F-CACH ?

F-CACH modes:

Power Controlled access mode
F-CACH provides fast acknowledgments to mobiles during access for
power control
Reservation Access Mode
Transmits an abbreviated address for each mobile that is allowed to
transmit on the R-CCC . This reduces collisions during the access
process

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Why Power Control?
All CDMA users occupy the same
frequency at the same time!
Frequency and time are not used as
discriminators.
CDMA operates by using CODES to
discriminate between users.
CDMA interference comes mainly
from nearby users
Each user is a small voice in a
roaring crowd -- but with a uniquely
recoverable code.
Transmit power on all users must be
tightly controlled so their signals
reach the base station at the same
signal level and at the absolute
minimum power level necessary to
ensure acceptable service quality

Reverse Open Loop
The mobile station makes a coarse initial estimation of the required transmit
power, based upon the total received power.

Problems with Reverse Open Loop Power Control:
Assumes same exact path loss in both directions; therefore, cannot
account for asymmetrical path loss
Estimates are based on total power received; therefore the power received
from other cell sites by mobile station introduces inaccuracies

Copy Rights LEGEND Co. 2010
Reverse Closed Loop Power Control
Compensates for asymmetries between the forward and reverse paths
Consists of power up (0) & power down (1) commands sent to the
mobile stations, based upon their signal strength measured at the Base
Station and compared to a specified threshold
Each command requests a 1dB increase or decrease of the mobile
station transmit power
Transmitted 800 times per second, always at full power
Allows to compensate for the effects of fast fading

Handoffs
Handoff is the process by which a mobile station maintains
communications with the Mobile Telephone Switching center(MSC), when
traveling from the coverage area of one base station to that of another.

Handoffs keep the call established during the following conditions:
Subscriber crosses the boundaries of a cell
Subscriber experiences noise or other interference above a specified
threshold
A base station component experiences an out-of-service condition
during a call
