Total Digital Convergence
5
What is Mobile Multimedia
• The buzzword being splashed around is
Convergence and by it we mean the
convergence of multimedia technology with the
telecommunications industry. If, for example,
features of the telephone and television are
combined, the resultant is a visually enriched
communication tool that makes applications
such as home shopping, distance learning,
remote collaboration with specialists, and
interactive access to live and stored video
sources around the world possible.
6
Definition
• The most common definition offered in the
extant literature is to say that mobile multimedia
could be considered as the emergence of
multimedia computer systems that are both
mobile in that they are capable of being
integrated into the telecommunications and
networking infrastructures and offer access to
services and applications using combinations of
data, text, voice, video (among others) to
anybody, anytime, anywhere.
7
First Generation
• It was however in the early 1980s that the first
generation of cellular systems appeared in the
U.S. These systems were called Advanced
Mobile Phone Systems and operate in the 824 –
849 MHz and 869 – 894 MHz bands. At the
same time, in Europe, similar systems called
NMT (Nordic Mobile Telephone System), were
developed which operated on 450 and 900 MHz
bands. These systems use FM (Frequency
Modulation) modulation for speech and in-band
signalling. These first generation systems were
primarily designed for speech transmission.
8
Second Generation
• The second-generation of mobile
communication emerged soon afterwards,
commonly referred to as GSM (Global System
for Mobile Communications). GSM is based on
digital time division multiplexing and has a raw
data rate of 13.8 kbps (with error checking this is
reduced to 9.6 kbps). GSM as a mobile network
standard in the context of wireless multimedia is,
simply, a technically sophisticated radio
communications network offering mobility and
supporting wireless information
services/highways
9
Current Generation
• Most mobile phones in use today are the
second-generation (2G) mobile phones or
the enhanced 2.5G version, which offers
improved data capabilities, such as higher
transmission rates and ‘always-onconnection’.
10
3rd Generation
• The Third-generation (3G) mobile are capable of
much higher data rates measured in Mbps and
are intended for applications other than voice –
such as mobile games. The 3G systems promise
to offer higher speeds and ‘always-on’ data
connections. It will also support heavy bandwidth
hungry multimedia applications such as fullmotion video; video-conferencing and advanced
data services with full Internet access. The 3G
networks are also designed to support large
numbers of users more efficiently than 2G
networks and allows for future expansion.
11
Other Technologies
• While Europe has been concentrating on GSM,
the USA and Japan have been developing their
own technologies.
• Japan, has successfully introduced i-mode to
Japan, which is a rival technology to WAP based
on CHTM a condensed version of HTML. By the
start of September 2000, i-mode had more than
11 million subscribers compared to the world
population of WAP which is probably not more
than a fifth of this total. I-Mode is a wireless
technology offering wireless web browsing and
email from mobile phones.
12
Universal Mobile Telecommunication
Service (UMTS)
• UMTS is a 3G standard supporting a theoretical
data transfer rate of up to 2 Mpbs will possibly
be launched globally by 2005
13
Bluetooth
• Another very interesting technology that has
emerged over the last few years is the Bluetooth
technology. According to IEEE’s Multimedia
magazine, September 2000, Bluetooth is not a
rival technology to WAP but a technology, which
can complement the Wireless Application
Protocol.
• Bluetooth is a short-range radio technology
designed to simplify peer-to-peer connectivity. It
enables mobile phones, printers, PCs and PDAs
to communicate directly with each other at high
speeds without the need for a network server or
cables.
