TDMA
time
  • Concept
  • channel is composed of a series of
    timeslots of periodicity. Different signal
    energies are distributed into different
    timeslots. The adjacent channel interference is
    restricted by connection choosing from time to
    time. So the useful signal is passed only in the
    specified timeslot.

The physical channel adopts FDMA and TDMA
techs. On the time domain, a specified channel
occupies the same timeslots in each TDMA frame,
so it can be identified by the timeslot number
and frame number.

  • Signaling Channel
  • transmit the signaling and synchronous data
    between BTS and MS.

25

  • Slow Associated Control Channel (SACCH)
  • combined with one traffic channel or SDCCH, to
    transmit some specific information of user
    information

    same signal as SDCCH. It occupies the service
    channel to transmit signaling information.

Channel Combination Type
  • Several logic channels combine together in
    some way to form some specific types of channel
    to transmit user data or signaling information.
    They are called combined channels. One combined
    channel can be mapped to a physical channel.
  • There are the following combined channels

Cell Mode Layout
Omni-directional cell Adopt omni-directional
antenna, the overall directional propagation
characteristic is the same. Directional
cell In general, cell with multi-sector is in
common use. Every directional cell adopts
directional antenna.
33
BTS Mode
  • Capacity
  • When the traffic is very low, and no possibility
    for quick increment, Omni-directional cell is
    used in common. Otherwise, we suggest to adopt
    the sector cell.
  • Note TRX-transceiver,each TRX handles 1
    frequency.
  • Coverage Area
  • Sector cell is often used to enlarge the cell
    coverage radius because of the higher antenna
    gain.
  • For special coverage ,such as road coverage,
    two-sector cell is adopted firstly.

34
System capacity
Erlang the traffic intensity of a totally
occupied channel (i.e. the call hour of a unit
hour or the call minute of a unit minute). For
example, the traffic of a channel occupied for 30
minutes in an hour is 0.5 Erlang) GOS defined
as the probability of call blocking or the
probability when the call delay time is longer
than a given queuing time.

36
Reasons for Interference
The transmission path is very complex, ranging
from the simple line-of-sight transmission to
encountering such terrain as buildings, hills and
trees. Wireless channels are extremely
unpredictable. Abrupt drop, or fading, of signal
strength in the land mobile wireless channel is
quite common. The fading feature of the mobile
channel depends on the radio wave propagation
environment.
37
Reasons for interference
  • Environmental factors
  • Terrain (mountains, hills, plains, water bodies,
    etc.)
  • The quantity, heights, distribution and materials
    of buildings
  • The vegetation of the region
  • Weather conditions
  • Natural and artificial electromagnetic noises
  • Frequency
  • How MS is moved.

38
Interference
  • Co-Channel Interference
  • Conception
  • the interference among the signals of
    co- channel cells is called co-channel
    interference.
  • Result from
  • Frequency reuse
  • Reduction method
  • co-channel cells must physically be spaced
    at a minimum interval to ensure adequate
    isolation of transmissions. 

39
Interference
  •  Adjacent Channel Interference
  • Conception
  • The signal interference from the frequency
    adjacent to that of the signal used is called
    adjacent channel interference.
  • Reduction method
  • accurate filtering and channel allocation
    (maximizing channel intervals of the
    cell). Interval of frequency reuse inter-cell
    interference, such as C/I, C/A

40
Solution -Anti-interference
  • FH technology
  • Dynamic power control (DPC)
  • Discontinuous Transceiving (DTX)
  • Diversity receiving technique

41
Frequency Hopping Technique
  • Reason
  • counteract Rayleigh Fading
  • scatter interference among multiple calls
  • Types
  • Base band frequency hopping
  • keeps the transmission and receiving frequency
    of each carrier unit unchanged, but merely sends
    FU transmission data to different carrier units
    at different FN moments.
  • radio frequency hopping
  • controls the frequency synthesizer of each
    transceiver, making it hop according to different
    schemes in different time slots.

42
  • Discontinuous Speech Transmission (DTX)
  • Two aims can be achieved by adopting DTX mode
  • lower the total interference electric level in
    the air
  • save transmitter power.

43
Diversity Reception Technology
  • The multi-path propagation of radio signals
    causes
  • magnitude fading and delay time.
  • Space Diversity (antenna diversity)
  • Polarization Diversity
  • orthogonal polarization diversity.
  • horizontal polarization and vertical
    polarization.
  • Frequency Diversity
  • The working principle of this technology is that
    such fading wont take place on the frequency
    outside the coherence bandwidth of the channel.

Numbering Arrangement
International Mobile Subscriber Identification
number (IMSI)
It identifies a unique international universal
number of a mobile subscriber, which consists of
MCCMNCMSIN. 1) MCC country code, 460 2)MNC
network code, 00 or 01 3)MSIN subscriber
identification, H1H2H3H4 9XXXXXX, H1H2H3H4
subscriber registering place H1H2 assigned
by the PT Administrative Bureau (operator )to
different provinces, to each province H3H4
assigned by each province/city the IMSI of user
will be written into the SIM card by specific
device and software and be stored into the HLR
with other user information.
49
Numbering Arrangement
Mobile Subscriber ISDN Number(MSISDN)
It is the subscriber number commonly used. China
uses the TDMA independent numbering
plan CCNDC H1H2H3H4 ABC CC country code,
86 NDC network code, 135139, 130 H1H2H3H4 HLR
identification code ABCD
mobile subscriber number inside each HLR
50
Numbering Arrangement
International Mobile Equipment Identification
code (IMEI)
It will uniquely identify a mobile station. It is
a decimal number of 15 digits. Its structure
is TACFACSNRSP TACmodel ratification code,
6 digits FACfactory assembling code, 2

51
Numbering Arrangement
Mobile Subscriber Roaming Number (MSRN)
The MSRN is temporarily distributed to the
subscriber by the VLR according to the request
by the HLR when this subscriber is called. The
MSRN is released and can be assigned to other
subscriber later. CC NDC 00 M1M2M3
ABC CC country code, 86 NDC mobile

H2H3 of MSISDN ABC 000 -- 999
52
Numbering Arrangement
Temporarily Mobile Subscriber Identification
Number (TMSI)
To insure the IMSI security, the VLR will assign
an unique TMSI number for the accessed
subscriber. It is used locally only and is a
4-byte TMSI number BCD code.
