DECT Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications
Wireless MultiMedia Laboratory Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications - DECT • Wireless Communication Standard • Indoor / Outdoor • residential, business and public applications • not limited to telephony • Access System • Backbone independent • Enhances network capabilities
DECT Home- Based System DECT Overview Fax machine Personal computer DECT Home- Based System Cordless phone with mail service DECT Base Station PSTN Cordless phone Data storage Voice/text mail machine Fax machine Regular telephone Answering machine Printer Personal computer
DECT Frame Structure A Time Division Multiple Access/ Time Duplex (TDMA/TDD) scheme has been chosen for DECT, where a total of 12 users can share one carrier frequency
DECT - Services Different Services for different applications Classes A - F
Conclusions As the wireless industry continues to expand at an alarming rate, it brings along with it other facets of the technology community, such as multimedia. Wireless communication will be the standard for the next millenium. References Wireless MultiMedia Laboratory http://user-www.ie.cuhk.edu.hk/~wmm96/ InfoPad Project http://infopad.eecs.berkeley.edu/
Q & A 1. What is the bandwidth of DECT? The radio frequency band allocated to DECT is 1880-1900 MHz. The entire 20 MHz need not be employed by DECT-based systems. The DECT standard uses TDMA. There are 10 frequencies of operation in the 20 MHz band, with a spacing of 1.728 MHz. The bit rate is 1.152 Mbps. 2. What is the A/V codec used in the InfoPad project? Audio - MSM7702 mu/A-law codec Video ---->
