Advanced Mobile Phone Service
 First generation of cell phones
 3 basic devices



mobile
base transceiver
mobile telephone switching office (MTSO)
 Voice and Control Channels
CIS-325 Data Communications

Operations
 Outgoing from mobile





input phone number and press send
mobile links to base xcvr via control channel
base to MTSO to POTS
MTSO routes connection back to mobile via
voice channel
mobile shifts from control to voice
CIS-325 Data Communications
4
Operations
 Incoming to mobile




call goes from POTS to MTSO
on control channel, MTSO searches for mobile
by PAGING every active mobile
if found, MTSO rings it and establishes voice
channel connection
uses xcvr with strongest signal from mobile
CIS-325 Data Communications

Cells
 In a city, there might be one MTSO
 There will be many xcvrs, each in its own
area or CELL
 Cell is hexagonal, with dia. of 6 miles or
less
 See fig 11.1, page 318
CIS-325 Data Communications
6
Channels
 Every mobile in a cell who is talking must
have its own channel
 Otherwise, there will be interference
 More channels = more users
 Rule of thumb - one channel can support 20
users

Spectral Allocation
 In U.S., we use two 25mHz bands
 one band from mobile to xcvr
 one band from xcvr to mobile
 Each channel uses 30 kHz
 So - about 832 channels for a city
 But - channels split between two companies
 21 for control, 395 for voice
 So - can support about 7900 users

Frequency Reuse
 Also called Spatial Allocation
 Cells are small, so signals can be low power
 Can use same freq. in a cell that is far away,
but not one nearby

at least 7 cells must intervene
 So - each cell can use about 57 channels
 So - each cell can support 1140 users

Hand-offs
 Mobile phones move from cell to cell
 As signal fades, mobile asks MTSO for a
new base xcvr
 MTSO polls all base xcvrs to see which has
strongest signal with mobile
 Mobile shifts to new channel coming from
new base

10
Roaming
 Mobile has moved to a different city or
subscriber area
 MTSO will check with your provider, via
land-line
 Then will allow you access
 Keeps track of billing data

Global System for Mobile
Communications (GMS)





Second-generation system
Widely used in Europe
Most of the same concepts as AMPS
System is digital, not analog
Uses fewer channels, but they are
multiplexed
CIS-325 Data Communications
12
Subscriber Identity Card
 Plug this into any mobile and it becomes
‘yours’
 Allows very flexible use of system and
components
CIS-325 Data Communications
13
Mobile Services Switching
Center (MSSC)
 Replaces MTSO, but has same functions
 Controls many Base Station Controllers
 Each Controller may control one or more
base transceivers
 MSSC connects system to POTS
CIS-325 Data Communications
14
Multiple Access
 Use spectrum more efficiently by
multiplexing channels
 Frequency-division multiplexing
 Time-division multiplexing
 Space-division multiplexing

essentially frequency re-use
CIS-325 Data Communications
15
Code-division Multiplexing
 Move message to higher bandwidth

more room
 Encode each signal

one bit may now have a 6-bit code
 Combine several of these channels into
same signal, then un-mix at destination
 can put up to 100 signals on one channel

Third Generation Wireless
Communications






Universal Personal Communications
Identify yourself to any system, anywhere
PCS - Personal Communications Services
Global standards for terminals, cell phones
Smaller or micro-cells
Much greater bandwidth (150 mHz)
CIS-325 Data Communications

Satellite Communications
 Geosynchronous




22,300 miles above
Simple to track and find
Needs strong signal to cover distance
Slight delay in signal due to distance
CIS-325 Data Communications

Satellite Communications
 Highly Elliptic Orbiting Satellites (HEOS)




GEO can’t reach poles very well due to oblique
angles
Russian’s use HEOS
65 degrees off equater
Elliptic orbit
• close at South, far/high in North

Need 3 satellites for coverage
CIS-325 Data Communications

Satellite Communications
 Low Earth Orbiting Satellites (LEOS)





Constellation of small, “inexpensive” satellites
200-700 miles high
Need >60 for 24 hour coverage
Sophisticated hand-off between satellites
Tables 11-1 and 11-2, pg. 333 lists proposed
systems
