Voice Coding
64kbps voice signal compressed into 13kbps signal Each 260 bit sample contains 20ms of speech data
• Analog signal is sampled using PCM at 64kbps.
• The signal is broken into 20 ms samples, which contain 1280 bits eachVoice
Encoder
• A Regular Pulse Excited - Linear Predictive Coder (RPE-LPC) is used to compress the 1280 bits into 260 bits
• Compression into just over 1/5 the size
IA – 50 bits IB – 132 bits II – 78 bits

Channel Coding - Blocks• The 260 bit (20ms) sample is divided into class IA,
IB and II, based on how important the bits are in determining the sound quality.
ChannelEncoder
• IA uses a 3 bit CRC. If the CRC fails, the whole sample is thrown out
• IA and IB together have a 4-bit trailer. Together, these are put into a ½-rate convolutional coder that doubles the number of bits
• II bits are appended unencoded, giving an overall sample of 456 bits
IA – 50 IB – 132 bits II – 78 bits
456 bits
IB – 132 bits
Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57 Block - 57• The 456 bit encoded sample is divided into 8 blocks of 57 bits each (each contains
the equivalent of 2.5 ms of speech) – these are the basic units of transmission.
One sample is 20ms of speech--> 456 bits--> 8 blocks
One block is 2.5ms of speech--> 57 bits

GSM Cellular No. 7Seattle Pacific University
Sharing the channel – TDMA Frames• Eight bursts (from different sources) make up a TDMA
frame One TDMA frame is eight bursts--> 8 sources x (2 x 2.5ms sample of speech)
Channel
• This allows eight sources to share a channel

Sharing the channel
• 26 TDMA frames make up one Multi-frame
One TDMA MultiFrame is 26 Frames (24 data)--> 24 Frames x 8 Bursts/Frame x 2 Blocks/Burst = 384 Blocks per MultiFrame--> For each of the 8 senders, there are 384/8 = 48 Blocks per MultiFrame--> For each sender, 48 blocks = 120 ms of speech (60 ms from 2 samples)

• 24 are for data (speech)

GSM Cellular No. 10Seattle Pacific University
GSM: Modulation• GSM uses Gaussian-filtered Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK).
• MSK is a minimum-shift form of FSK
• Gaussian pre-filter reduces bandwidthModulator
• MSK gives the best spectral efficiency of any digital bandpass signal set.
• FSK only has one amplitude level, allowing for a simpler amplifier in the handset

GSM Cellular No. 11Seattle Pacific University
Discontinuous Transmission
• Discontinuous transmission (DTX) allows for the transmitter to be turned off 60% of the time.
• Saves power
• Reduces the overall ambient noise in the cell sector.
• DTX requires voice detection, so that the handset knows when to restart transmission.
• DTX also requires a synch signal, so that the receiver can differentiate between silence and a dropped connection.

GSM Cellular No. 12Seattle Pacific University
Dynamic Power Compensation
• The power between the handset and the tower can be dynamically adjusted in response to the channel BER.
• This allows the channel to start at a minimum power level, and only increase when the signal requires a greater SNR.
• For CDMA, Dynamic Power Compensation is a necessity
• All transmit on same band at the same time
• Power must be adjusted so that all signals are received at the same strength• Otherwise, one channel would overpower all others
