“Provide additional radio capacity with no additional increase in radio spectrum”
Admissions in India 2015
Early mobile radio system was to achieve a large coverage areas by using high powered transmitter with an antenna mounted on a tall tower
In this case it is impossible to reuse those same frequencies throughout the system
Since any attempts to achieve frequency reuse would result in interference
Admissions in India 2015
Cellular concept is a system level idea which calls for replacing a single , high power transmitter with low power small transmitters with each providing coverage to only a small portion of service area
Each base station is allocated a portion of total no of channels available to entire system
Nearby base station are assigned different groups of channels so that all the available channels are assigned to a relatively small no. of neighboring base stations
Nearby BS are assigned different groups of channel so that interference bt. BS is minimized

geography)◦ if a mobile user changes cells

FREQUENCY REUSE• Each cellular base station is allocated a group of radio channels within
a small geographic area called a cell.
• Neighboring cells are assigned different channel groups.
• By limiting the coverage area to within the boundary of the cell, the channel groups may be reused to cover different cells.
• Keep interference levels within tolerable limits.
• Frequency reuse or frequency planning
“The design process of selecting and allocating channel groups for all of the cellular base station within a system is FREQUENCY REUSE/PLANNING”
Admissions in India 2015
• Consider a cellular system which has a total of S duplex channels.
• Each cell is allocated a group of k channels, .
• The S channels are divided among N cells.
• The total number of available radio channels
• The N cells which use the complete set of channels is called cluster.
• The cluster can be repeated M times within the system. The total number of channels, C, is used as a measure of capacity
• The capacity is directly proportional to the number of replication M.
• The cluster size, N, is typically equal to 4, 7, or 12.
• Small N is desirable to maximize capacity.
• The frequency reuse factor is given by

• Hexagonal geometry has – exactly six equidistance neighbors
– the lines joining the centers of any cell and each of its neighbors are separated by multiples of 60 degrees.
• Only certain cluster sizes and cell layout are possible.
• The number of cells per cluster, N, can only have values which satisfy
• Co-channel neighbors of a particular cell, ex, i=3 and j=2.

Method of locating co-channel cells in a cellular system. In this example, N = 19 (i.e., I = 3, j = 2). (Adapted from [Oet83] © IEEE.)
To find the nearest co-channel neighbor of a particular cell1.Move ‘i’ cells along any chain of hexagons 2.Then turn 60 degrees counter-clockwise and3.Move ‘j’ cells.

Solves the problem of spectral congestion and user capacity.
Offer very high capacity in a limited spectrum without major technological changes.
Reuse of radio channel in different cells. Enable a fix number of channels to serve an arbitrarily
large number of users by reusing the channel throughout the coverage region.
Admissions in India 2015
Techniques to provide more channels per coverage area is by
Cell splitting Cell sectoring Coverage zone approches
Admissions in India 2015
Cell splitting increases the capacity of cellular system since it increases the number of times the channel are reused
Cell splitting - defining new cells which have smaller radius than orginal cells by installing these smaller cells called MICROCELLS between existing cells
Capacity increases due to additional number of channels per unit area
“Cell splitting is process of subdividing a congested cell into smaller cells each with its own base station(with corresponding reduction in antenna height and tx power)”
Admissions in India 2015
CELL SPLITTING
Split congested cell into smaller cells.– Preserve frequency reuse plan.
– Reduce transmission power.
microcell
Reduce R to R/2
Admissions in India 2015
• Transmission power reduction from to
• Examining the receiving power at the new and old cell boundary
• If we take n = 4 (path loss) and set the received power equal to each other
• The transmit power must be reduced by 12 dB in order to fill in the original coverage area.
• Problem:
if only part of the cells are splited
– Different cell sizes will exist simultaneously
• Handoff issues - high speed and low speed traffic can be simultaneously accommodated

2.7.2 Sectoring• Decrease the co-channel interference and keep the cell radius
R unchanged– Replacing single omni-directional antenna by several directional
antennas

2.7.3 Microcell Zone Concept• Antennas are placed at the outer edges of the cell• Any channel may be assigned to any zone by the base station• Mobile is served by the zone with the strongest signal.
• Handoff within a cell– No channel re-
assignment
– Switch the channel to a different zone site
• Reduce interference– Low power
transmitters are employed
Admissions in India 2015
Channel Assignment Strategies
• Frequency reuse scheme– increases capacity
– minimize interference
• Channel assignment strategy– fixed channel assignment
– dynamic channel assignment
• Fixed channel assignment– each cell is allocated a predetermined set of voice channel
– any new call attempt can only be served by the unused channels
– the call will be blocked if all channels in that cell are occupied
• Dynamic channel assignment– channels are not allocated to cells permanently.
– allocate channels based on request.
– reduce the likelihood of blocking, increase capacity. Admissions in India 2015
