Wireless Communications History
– 1st short wave communication experiment was done in 1895 witnessed by L.T.Governer, and the credit changed to J.C.Bose, recognized by IEEE.
– Marconi invented the wireless telegraph in 1896 and sent telegraphic signals across the Atlantic Ocean in 1902.
– 1914 – first voice communication over radio waves.
– Many sophisticated military radio systems were developed during and after WW2 (1939-1945).
– Communications satellites launched in 1960s.
– Cellular has enjoyed exponential growth since 1988, with more than 3 billion users worldwide today.
– In 1964, Motorola invented first mobile phone.
– In 1973, 1st man held device came from Motorola.

Introduction… Cont.
# Benefits of cellular technology • Group of cells called cluster.
• Smaller cells = frequency reuse = more number of users
• As demand increases (more channels needed)
– Number of base stations is increased (by reducing cell size)
– Transmitter power is decreased correspondingly to avoid interference.
• Adjacent cells assigned different frequencies.
• The same frequency is reused in different areas.
• In GSM networks a frequency reuse with k = 3, 4, 7,12 or 21.
Introduction… Cont.
# Frequency reuse:
>Reuse factor = 3 >Reuse factor = 4
Introduction… Cont.
Handoff : It depends on signal strength (90dBm- 100dBm)
RSSI: Reduced signal strength indicator
Frequency Reuse Problems: 1. Adjacent-Channel Interference: Comes from imperfect
filters that allow frequency leakage into the band.
Introduction… Cont.
2. Co-Channel Interference: occurs when the same
carrier frequency reaches the same receiver from two separate
transmitters. Seperation distance is the solution.
Introduction… Cont.
Reasons for interference
Environmental factors:
• Terrain (mountains, hills, plains, water bodies, etc.);
• The quantity, heights, distribution and materials of buildings;

What is GSM ?
Global System for Mobile (GSM) is a second generation cellular standard
developed for voice services and data delivery using digital modulation.
Mobile Generations… Cont.
• Developed by Group Spéciale Mobile, which was an initiative of CEPT
(Conference of European Post and Telecommunication )
• Presently the responsibility of GSM standardization resides with special
mobile group under ETSI ( European telecommunication Standards
Institute ) GSM 900
Mobile to BTS (uplink): 890-915 Mhz
BTS to Mobile (downlink):935-960 Mhz
Bandwidth : 2* 25 Mhz
GSM 1800
Mobile to BTS (uplink): 1710-1785 Mhz
BTS to Mobile(downlink) 1805-1880 Mhz
Bandwidth : 2* 75 Mhz
• GSM 900 uses 25 MHz frequency
spectrum with 124 channels Each
channels have 200 KHz bandwidth. Each
two channels are separated by 1.6 KHz
guard band. Each channel have 8 time
slots which allows 8 subscribers to use
same frequency by TDMA.

Mobile Generations… Cont.
GPRS features • Radio resources are allocated for only one or a few packets at a
time, so GPRS enables:
– many users to share radio resources, and allow efficient transport of
packets
– fast setup/access times
– connectivity to external packet data networks
• GPRS also carries SMS in data channels rather than signaling
channels as in GSM
Mobile Generations… Cont.
EDGE • Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution
• Increased data rates with GSM compatibility
– Still 200 KHz bands; still TDMA
– 8-PSK modulation: 3 bits/symbol give 3X data rate
– Shorter range (more sensitive to noise/interference)
– New GSM/ EDGE radios but evolved ANSI-41 core network
