1、Mobile Handset Cellular NetworkCellular Network Basics There are many types of cellular services; before delving into details, focus on basics (helps navigate the “acronym soup”) Cellular network/telephony is a radio-based technology; radio waves are electromagnetic waves that antennas propagate Mos
2、t signals are in the 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 1900 MHz frequency bandsCell phones operate in this frequency range (note the logarithmic scale)Cellular Network Base stations transmit to and receive from mobiles at the assigned spectrum Multiple base stations use the same spectrum (spectral reu
3、se) The service area of each base station is called a cell Each mobile terminal is typically served by the closest base stations Handoff when terminals moveCellular Network Generations It is useful to think of cellular Network/telephony in terms of generations: 0G: Briefcase-size mobile radio teleph
4、ones 1G: Analog cellular telephony 2G: Digital cellular telephony 3G: High-speed digital cellular telephony (including video telephony) 4G: IP-based “anytime, anywhere” voice, data, and multimedia telephony at faster data rates than 3G (to be deployed in 20122015)Evolution of Cellular Networks1G2G3G
5、4G2.5GThe Multiple Access Problem The base stations need to serve many mobile terminals at the same time (both downlink and uplink) All mobiles in the cell need to transmit to the base station Interference among different senders and receivers So we need multiple access schemeMultiple Access Schemes
6、 Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)3 orthogonal Schemes:Frequency Division Multiple AccessEach mobile is assigned a separate frequency channel for the duration of the call Sufficient guard band is required to prevent ad
7、jacent channel interference Usually, mobile terminals will have one downlink frequency band and one uplink frequency band Different cellular network protocols use different frequencies Frequency is a precious and scare resource. We are running out of it Cognitive radiofrequencyTime Division Multiple
8、 AccessTime is divided into slots and only one mobile terminal transmits during each slot Like during the lecture, only one can talk, but others may take the floor in turn Each user is given a specific slot. No competition in cellular network Unlike Carrier Sensing Multiple Access (CSMA) in WiFiGuar
