33 possible Solutions - How can users share a link

0G / 1G - Frequency divisional Multiple Access

Assume we have a transmission medium (e.g. microstrip, coaxial) with a WIDE bandwidth.We can transmit a number of signals over this medium.

FDMA in mobile phones - OG

First used in 1946 – Mobile Telephone System (MTS)

Operator makes connection

1964 – Improved Mobile Telephone System (IMTS)

(Automatic - No operator)

460 MHz

MTS only has BW from 40-460MHz

Could only have 32 channels – we need more channels

Using Cells to achieve more channels?

Page 14: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

14

Only 32 channels ?

How can we fit more channels into this bandwidth ?

Make use of ‘Attenuation’

Signal strength reduces with distance

What happens when we have more mobile phones ?

Attenuation is a GOOD thing sometimes ?

Page 17: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

Powerful transmitter located at the highest spot in an area would broadcast over a wide radius (up to 50 km)

Early Mobile Phone Systems

Good coverage – but had limitations

Page 18: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

18

Divide the region into smaller areas

Use LESS POWERFUL transmitters at different locations

Directional antenna – focus beam in 3 directions – TRI SECTOR

New Approach – use Cells

Page 19: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

19

Both antennas have same performance

Different Designs - Same Performance

Old Technology New Technology

We have a REGION

Each Region is divided into cells

Base Station at each intersection

Mobile Phone inside each cell

Cells

Base Station

Region

Page 22: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

22

Each Cell has a BAND of frequencies

Each BAND signal within the Cell is sub-divided into different channels

Each ADJACENT CELL must use a different BAND of frequencies

Cells

Base Station

Page 23: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

23

Base Station at each intersection

Each colour represents a different frequency

Signal from one cell is weak by the time it reaches distant cell - ATTENUATION

You can re-use the same frequency as long as cells with same frequency are not adjacent to each other

Cells – 1G

Base Station at each intersection

Each colour represents a different frequency

Signal from one cell is weak by the time it reaches distant cell - ATTENUATION

You can re-use the same frequency as long as cells with same frequency are not adjacent to each other

No adjacent cells have the same colour

1G – 2G The first 1G system - 1978 (AMPS) – Trials. Can only handle

small number of users

1990s – too many users – need to move to 2G system. – System bursting at the seam.

Moving from analog to digital system - allows big increase in number of users.

IF you code in digital form you can use TDMA

Mobile phone signal were transmitted in the original ANALOG form

Only used for calls

Analog signal converted to digital form

2G - TDMA

You can do lots of things with a Digital signals

Time Divisional Multiple Access

Page 30: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

30

Time Divisional Multiple Access (TDMA)

Each person uses the same frequency and take turns to

transmit the data in a ‘round-robin’ fashion.

Multiple signals can be carried on a single transmission medium by interleaving portions of each signal in time.

Only possible if:

data rate of tx medium > data rate of signals to be transmitted

“ALL of the bandwidth SOME of the time”

To prevent this GUARD-TIMES are inserted between signals

GUARD-TIMES are a safety measure to prevent interference

3 users transmit all of the time, across full frequency range.

Each user has a different CODE

Page 38: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

To understand Coded Divisional Multiple Access we need to understand logic gates

Page 39: Mobile Phones Multiplexing Intro.ppt

39

3 sets of users. Each user is assigned a CODE.CDMA example

A1

C2

B1

1. Each signal (A1, B1, C1) is ENCODED (encrypted / scrambled) by modulating it a UNIQUE CODE.

2. The ENCODED signal is transmitted across the network

3. To DECODE the signal the receiver must know the UNIQUE CODE.
