WIRELESS TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS ENTC 455 Electronics & Telecommunications
Basics of Wireless Networks • Harvey Lehpamer – Transmission Systems Design Handbook for Wireless Networks • Chapter 2 – pages 5 to 45 Electronics & Telecommunications
Basics of Wireless Networks • Historical Background – The Cellular Concept • Wireless Local Loop (WLL) • Cellular Systems • Analog (FDMA) – AMPS • Digital: • TDMA: NA-TDMA (IS-136), GSM • CDMA (IS-95) • 1G, 2G, 2.5G, 3G,….. • Satellite Networks • Microwave Systems • Bluetooth Electronics & Telecommunications
Historical Background • 1946 – the first public mobile telephone service was introduced in 25 major American cities • Transmitter tower that serves a metropolitan area (> 50 km) • Mobile users • Several channels available • Half-duplex mode • 120 khz of bandwidth per channel (voice) • 1960’s • Channels • 30 Khz of bandwidth per channel (voice) • IMTS – Improved Mobile Telephone Service • Full duplex, auto-dial, auto-trunking phone systems • Spectrally innefficient • 1976 – New York – 12 channels that could serve only 543 paying customers Electronics & Telecommunications
Cellular Concept (proposed in 1968, implemented late 70’s) • Metropolitan areas were divided into cells • Small geographic area: cells • Low power transmitters • Frequency re-use • Each cells operating on a set of frequencies that differed from the frequencies of adjacent cells.

Method of locating co-channel cells in a cellular system Number of cells per cluster N N can only have values that Satisfy the equation: N = i2 + i j + j2 To find the nearest co-channel neighbors of a particular cell: 1) move i cells along any chain of hexagons 2) turn 60 degrees counter-clockwise and move j cells N = 7 i = 2 j = 1 1 1 1 Electronics & Telecommunications
Example – To understand how frequency re-use improves capacity • If a total of 5 MHz of bandwidth is allocated to a particular FDD wireless system which uses 25 KHz simplex channels to provide full duplex voice and control channels, compute the number of channels available per metropolitan area. 25 KHz 5,000 KHz Electronics & Telecommunications
Solution • Total bandwidth = 5 MHz • Channel bandwidth = 25 KHz x 2 simplex channels = 50 KHz/duplex channel • Total available channels = 5,000/50 = 100 channels Reverse Channel Forward Channel 1 2 3 1 2 3 100 100 25 KHz 5,000 KHz Electronics & Telecommunications
Now assume: • Number of channels C =100 • Traffic intensity generated by each user: • μ: call request rate: 2 calls/hour • H: Holding time: 3 minutes/call • Au = μ x H = 2 x (3/60) = 0.1 Erlangs • Grade of Service: 1% • Blocked calls cleared (Erlang-B formula) • How many users can this system support? Electronics & Telecommunications
How many users? • A = 84.1 Erlangs • U = A / Au = 84.1 Erlangs / 0.1 Erlangs/user = = 841 users Electronics & Telecommunications
Example – Cellular System • If a total of 5 MHz of bandwidth is allocated to a particular FDD cellular wireless system which uses 25 KHz simplex channels to provide full duplex voice and control channels, compute the number of channels available per cell if a system uses • 4-cell reuse • 7-cell reuse 25 KHz 5,000 KHz Electronics & Telecommunications
Solution • Total bandwidth = 5 MHz • Channel bandwidth = 25 KHz x 2 simplex channels = 50 KHz/duplex channel • Total available channels = 5,000/50 = 100 channels • A) for N=4 • Total number of channels per cell = 100/4 = 25 channels • B) for N=7 • Total number of channels per cell = 100/7 ~14 channels Electronics & Telecommunications
For N=7: • Number of channels per cell C =14 • Traffic intensity generated by each user: • μ: call request rate: 2 calls/hour • H: Holding time: 3 minutes/call • Au = μ x H = 2 x (3/60) = 0.1 Erlangs • Grade of Service: 1% • Blocked calls cleared (Erlang-B formula) • How many users per cell? Electronics & Telecommunications
For N=7: (cont.) • From the Erlang B chart: • Total carried traffic A = 9 Erlangs • Number of users/cell • U = A/ Au = 9/0.1 = 90 users • If there are 100 cells in a metropolitan area, then the total number of subscribers is 9000. • Exercise: • Do the calculations for N=4 Electronics & Telecommunications
Conclusion C = 100 channels Number of subscribers One antenna – no frequency re-use 841 users Cellular, N=7 90 users/cell Cellular, N=4 Homework: page 8, explain the numbers of second paragraph Electronics & Telecommunications
