Telecommunications Standards Institute
Committee ( ETSI )
 GSM
GSM is the international standard in Europe,
Australia and much of Asia and Africa. In covered
areas, cell-phone-users can buy one phone that will
work anywhere else the standard is supported. To
connect to the specific service providers in these
different countries, GSM-users simply switch
subscriber identification module (SIM) cards. SIM
cards are small removable disks that slip in and out
of GSM cell phones. They store all the connection
data and identification numbers you need to access a
particular wireless service provider.
 1900 MHz GSM
1900 MHz GSM phones used in the United
States are not compatible with the
international system. If you live in the
United States and need to have a cell phone
access when you're overseas, the easiest
thing to do is buy a GSM
900MHz/1800MHz cell phone for traveling.
 GSM Capacity
 GSM uses 13 kbps voice communication.
 In 20MHz of total spectrum (paired spectrum of
10MHz each way), 400 channels are available.
 When using non-sectorised cells, at best a reuse
efficiency of 0.33 is possible. This implies, about
400 x 0.33 or 135 channels per cell implying a
trunking efficiency of about 0.85.
 Thus the number of subscribers per cell works out
to be approximately 766. For a cell radius of 10
kms, 3 kms and 1 km, of the subscriber density
served given by 766/(p r2) will be 2.4, 27, and 245
subscribers/sq km, respectively.
 The GSM network can be
divided into four main parts
 The Mobile Station, which is carried by the subscriber
 The Base Station Subsystem, which controls the radio link
with the Mobile Station
 The Network and Switching Subsystem, the main part of
which is the Mobile Services Switching Center and which
performs the switching of calls between the mobile and
other fixed or mobile network users, as well as
management of mobile services, such as authentication
 The Operation and Support Subsystem, which oversees
the proper operation and setup of the network.
GSM GLOSSARY
TERMINOLOGIES
 WIRELESS

Wireless is a term used to describe

telecommunications in which
electromagnetic waves (rather than some
form of wire) carry the signal over part
or all of the communication path.
 SMS
SMS (Short Message Service) A service
for sending messages of up to 160
characters to mobile phones that use Global
System for Mobile (GSM) communication.

SMS messages do not require the mobile

phone to be active and within range. They
can also be sent from a website.
 EMS
Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) is an
adaptation of the Short Message Service
(SMS) that allows users to integrate text,
melodies, pictures, sounds, and animations
to enhance the expressive power of
messages.
 GPRS
General Packet Radio Services (GPRS) is a
packet-based wireless communication service that
promises data rates from 56 up to 114 Kbps and
continuous connection to the Internet for mobile
phone and computer users. As GPRS becomes
available, mobile users of a virtual private network
will be able to access the private network
continuously rather than through a Dial-up
connection.
 GPRS Classes
 Class 2 --one up 8-12kbps,2 down 16-24kbps-(2+1)
 Class 4 - one up 8 -12 kbps,3 down 24 -36kbps
 Class 6 - two up 16 -24 kbps,three down 24 -36kbps
 Class 8 -one up 8 - 12 kbps ,four down 32 - 40 kbps
 class 10 - one up 8 -12 kbps, four down 32 -48 kbps or two
up16 -24 kbps ,three down 24 -36 kbps
 Class 12 - one up 8 - 12 kbps ,four down 32-48 kbps or
two up 16 -24 kbps,three down 24 -36 kbps or three up 24
-36 kbps ,two down 16 -24 kbps or four up 32 -48 kbps
one down 8 - 12 kbps

 NOTE
 UP means transmit
 DOWN means receive
 PACKET SWITCHING
GPRS involves overlaying a packet based air interface on the
existing circuit switched GSM network. This gives the user an
option to use a packet-based data service. To supplement a circuit
switched network architecture with packet switching is quite a
major upgrade.
With GPRS, the information is split into separate but related
"packets" before being transmitted and reassembled at the receiving
end. Packet switching is similar to a jigsaw puzzle- the image that
the puzzle represents is divided into pieces at the manufacturing
factory and put into a plastic bag. During transportation of the now
boxed jigsaw from the factory to the end user, the pieces get
jumbled up. When the recipient empties the bag with all the pieces,
they are reassembled to form the original image. All the pieces are
all related and fit together, but the way they are transported and
assembled varies. The Internet itself is another example of a packet
data network, the most famous of many such network types.
 WAP
WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) is a
specification for a set of communication protocols
to standardize the way that wireless devices, such
as cellular telephones and radio transceivers, can
be used for Internet access, including email and
the World Wide Web.
 HSCSD

High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) is an

enhancement of data services ("Circuit Switched
Data - CSD) of all current GSM networks. It
allows you to access non-voice services at 3 times
faster, which means subscribers are able to send
and receive data from their portable computers at a
speed of up to 28.8 kbps; this is currently being
upgraded in many networks to rates of and up to
43.2 kbps.
 BLUE TOOTH
Bluetooth is a computing and
telecommunications industry specification that
describes how mobile phones, computers, and
personal digital assistants can easily
interconnect with each other using a short-
range wireless connection. Bluetooth requires
that a transceiver chip be included in each
device.
 INFRARED
Infrared refers to energy in the region of the
electromagnetic radiation spectrum at
wavelengths longer than those of visible light,
but shorter than those of radio waves. Infrared
is used in a variety of wireless
communications, monitoring, and control
applications.
 EDGE
EDGE - or Enhanced Data Rates for Global
Evolution - is a 3G radio technology that triples the
high-speed datacom capacity of GPRS- (General
Packet Radio Service) enhanced GSM networks,
enabling GSM operators to provide high-speed
Mobile Internet services over existing infrastructure.
Operators can use this datacom capacity boost to
increase individual user data rates by three times, or
to serve three times the number of datacom users, or
to free up capacity for still-expanding voice traffic.
 3G RADIO TECHNOLOGY
What different services will be available on third
generation systems?
 Video on demand, high speed multimedia and mobile
Internet access are just a few of the possibilities for users
in the future. 3GSM Services will expand the possibilities
of information and communication.
 The main benefit is that they will offer high-end service
capabilities, which includes substantially enhanced
capacity, quality and data rates than is currently available.
They will also include the concurrent usage of multiple
services.
 3GSM Services will also bridge the gap between the
wireless world and the computing/ Internet world, making
inter-operation apparently seamless.
 VOICE RECOGNITION
Voice or speech recognition is the ability of a
machine or program to receive and interpret
dictation, or to understand and carry out spoken
commands.

 GPRS
General Packet Radio Service
 GPRS
GPRS stands for General Packet Radio
Service. This service facilitates high speed
of data transmission and uses the Packet
Switching Technology offering air interface
transfer rates at much higher speeds than
normal data transfer depending on mobile
terminal capabilities and Carrier
interference. GPRS allows multiple users to
share the same air interface resources.
 GPRS
GPRS is a boon to that segment of customers who
would like to transmit data intermittently which offers
them at the most economical prices as compared to
the conventional mode of Data transfer on Circuit
switched data. As on date users can experience data
transfer speeds up to 43 Kbps, which is much higher
than a normal dial up modem. Users can now surf
Internet, view their Company’s Intranet databases,
Mails using their Handsets. Because of its
characteristics, GPRS has found itself a place in the
foray of building of tremendous Value Added
Services, which will help realize the dreams of “Data
hungry” users
BENEFITS OF GPRS
 BENEFITS OF GPRS

High Speed Data Access: As the name

Packet Switching Technology infers, now no
longer is the Data transfer restricted to the
conventional 9.6 Kbps. As on date, Speeds
upto 43 Kbps can be experienced by a user
depending on the resources allocated.
However, these speeds can be increased
theoretically up to 171 Kbps.
BENEFITS OF GPRS
Always “ON”: With GPRS, users now no
longer be worried of connecting and
disconnecting with the prevailing mindset
of coughing up huge amounts for airtime,
which was so till date. Once logged, the
user needs to only worry about the data,
which is transferred, thereby making GPRS
a viable bearer for cost effective data
communication.
 BENEFITS OF GPRS

Single Network for Voice & Data:

GPRS uses the same network, which was

supporting for Voice. This benefit is
transferred to the user when he is receiving
or making any voice calls. This is basically
possible due to the Technology behind
GPRS.
 MMS
MMS Enables people to send
pictures, text and voice at one go
through MMS Handset.
In most cases setting on Handset would happen via OTA,
Incase OTA is not working or manual settings have to be
done following process needs to be followed:
