  1. DATA COMMUNICATION Lecture

  2. Overview of Lecture 27 • Frequency Ranges • Microwave Communication • Satellite Communication • Cellular Telephony

  3. Frequency Ranges • The type of propagation used in radio transmission depends upon the frequency of the signal

  4. Very Low Frequency (VLF)

  5. Contd… • VLF waves are propagated as surface waves through air • Do not suffer much attenuation in TX but are susceptible to high levels of atmospheric noise I.e. electricity and heat • Used for Long-range radio navigation and Submarine Communication

  6. Low Frequency (LF)

  7. Also propagated as surface waves Used for Long-range radio and for navigational locators Attenuation is greater

  8. Middle Frequency (MF)

  9. The distance they cover is limited by the angle needed to get the signal reflect • Used for AM Radio

  10. High Frequency (HF)

  11. Used for International Broadcasting, Military Communication, Telephone, Telegraph and Fax

  12. Very High Frequency (VHF)

  13. Most VHF waves use line-of-sight propagation • Used for VHF Television, FM Radio, Aircraft AM Radio

  14. Ultra High Frequency (UHF)

  15. Always use line-of-sight propagation • Used for UHF Television, Mobile Telephone, Cellular Radio, Paging, Microwave Links • Note that microwave communication begins at 1GHz in UHF and continues into SHF and EHF band

  16. Super High Frequency (SHF)

  17. SHF waves are TX using mostly line-of-sight and some Space propagation • Used for Terrestrial and Satellite Microwave and Radar Communication

  18. Extremely High Frequency (EHF)

  19. Used for Radar , Satellite and Experimental Communication

  20. Terrestrial Microwave • Microwaves do not follow the curvature of earth • Line-of-sight transmission • Height allows the signal to travel farther

  21. Terrestrial Microwave

  22. Satellite Communication • Line-of-sight microwave communication using satellite • Satellite acts as a very tall antenna and a repeater

  23. Satellite Communication

  24. Geosynchronous Satellites

  25. Satellite Frequency Bands • Each satellite sends and receives over two bands • Uplink: From the earth to the satellite • Downlink: From the satellite to the earth

  26. Satellite Frequency Bands Band Downlink Uplink C 3.7-4.2 GHz 5.925-6.425 GHz Ku 11.7-12.2 GH 14-14.5 GHz Ka 17.7-21 GHz 27.5-31 GHz

  27. Cellular Telephony • Each service area is divided into small ranges called cells • Each cell office is controlled by a switching office called MTSO

  28. Cellular Telephony

  29. Operations of Cellular Telephony • Transmitting • Mobile phone sends the number to the closest cell office • Cell office  MTSO  Telephone office • MTSO assigns an unused voice channel

  30. Operations of Cellular Telephony • Receiving • Telephone office sends the signal to MTSO • MTSO sends queries to each cell (paging) • If mobile phone is found and available, assigns a channel

  31. Operations of Cellular Telephony • Handoff • MTSO monitors the signal level every few seconds • If the strength diminishes, MTSO seeks a new cell and changes the channel carrying the call
