G S M ( Global System for Mobile communication)
What is GSM ?
❑Stands for global system for mobile communication.
❑GSM is a open and digital cellular technology used for mobile communication.
❑It uses 4 different frequency bands of 850mhz, 900mhz, 1800mhz and 1900mhz.
❑It uses the combination of both fdma and tdma.
Cell sizes in GSM network
Macro → In this size of cell, base station antenna is installed.
Micro → In this size of cell, antenna height is less than the average roof level.
Pico → Small cell diameter of few meters.
Umbrella → It covers the shadowed regions( fill the gaps between cells).
Features of GSM
❑ Supports international roaming.
❑ Clear voice clarity.
❑ Ability to support multipe handheld devices.
❑ Low service cost.
❑ New features and services.
GSM network divided into
Mobile Station ( MS ):
❑ It consist of the physical equipment, such as the radio transceiver, display and digital signal processors and the SIM card.
❑ It provides the air interface to the user in gsm networks.
❑ It also provides access to the various data services available in a GSM network.
Base Station Subsystem ( BSS ): BTS and BSC communicate across the specified abis interface, enabling operations between components that are made by different suppliers.
Network Switching Subsystem ( NSS ): It performs switching of calls between mobile and other fixed or mobile network user, as well as the management of mobile services such as authentications.
Operation Support Subsystem ( OSS ): The operations and maintenance center ( OMC ) is connected to all equipment in the switching system and to the BSC. The implementation of OMC is called the operation and support system ( OSS ).
Handoff
It is the ability of transfer mobile cell from one bas station to another base station.
Reason for handoff: • Mobile device moves one cell to another cell.
• When capacity of a cell is exhausted.
Types of Handoff
Hand handoff:
• Channel in source is released and only then channel in target is engaged.
• Very cheap.
• Only one communication at a time.
• Disturbance.
Soft handoff:
• Channel in source cell is retained and used for while in parallel with channel in target cell.
• Very costly.
• Two communication at a time.
• No Disturbance.
Intracell: Source and target are different cells.
Intercell: Source and target are same cells.
