Types of TDMA Systems
The comparatively mature and most typical system in
the TDMA series are: the pan-European GSM,
American D-AMPS and the Japanese PDC.
1DAMPS was formally launched into commercialapplication in 1993 after the American Electronic
Industry Association (EIA) completed its technical
standardization in 1989).

2Japanese JDC (now renamed as PDC) had itstechnical standards completed in 1990. It was putinto service in 1993, but is restricted to Japan only.
3The special mobile communication group (SMG)of CEPT laid down the phase 1 standard ofGSM in1988, with the working frequency band around
900MHz. It was launched into commercial use in
1990.

Main Features of GSM (1)
(1) Spectrum efficiency: due to the adoption of high-
efficiency modulator, channel coding, interleaving,equalization and voice coding technologies, the system
has a high spectrum efficiency.
(2) Capacity: due to the increase of the transmission
bandwidth of each channel, the requirement of co-
channel reuse carrier-to-interference ratio is lowered to9dB,

12/77The information contained in the file is solely property of ZTE corporation. Any kind of disclosing without permission is prohibited.ZTE University univ.zte.com.cnuniv.zte.com.cnuniv.zte.com.cn
So,the cofrequency reuse mode of the GSM system
can be narrowed down to 4/12 or 3/9 or even less
(for a analog system, it is 7/21).
GSM system capacity is 3~5 times higher than thatof a TACS system.

BCH can be divided into three types of channels:
FCCH: Frequency Correction Channel,
carrying information used in MS frequency calibration.SCH: Synchronization Channel,
carrying information of MS frame synchronization and
Base Transceiver Station (BTS) identification.BCCH: Broadcasting Control Channel;
this channel broadcasts general BTS information.
Among transceivers at each base station, there isalways one transceiver that contains such a channel, so
as to broadcast system information to mobile stations.

2) Common Control ChannelCCCHare shared by all mobile stations in the network.
There are 3 types of such channels:
PCH: paging channels,
used by a base station to page mobile stations (downward).
RACH: random access channel,used by mobile stations for random access network application,
i.e.,requesting the allocation of SDCCH channels (upward).
AGCH: access granted channel, used by a base station to
respond to random access requests of mobile stations, i.e., toassign one SDCCH or directly assign one TCH (downward).

3) Dedicated Control Channel (DCCH)
In application, the base station will assign it to a
mobile station, so as to make point-to-pointtransmission between the base station and the
mobile station.
There are 3 types of such channels:
SDCCH: a stand-alone dedicated control channel,
used to transmit such information as channelassignment.

SACCH: slow-speed associated control channel,
Used in combination with one traffic channel or one SDCCH,
to send some specific subscriber information, e.g.,power and
frame adjustment control information, measurement data, etc.
FACCH: fast associated control channel, combining with one
traffic channel to carry the same signals as SDCCH, but it is
assigned only when SDCCH has not been assigned. Call
connection is realized via frames borrowed from traffic
channels to transmit such commands as handover.

A=n
T/3600where,
n- calls made by a subscriber within an hour
T- average duration of each call(in seconds)
A - Traffic, in Erlang
If one call is made by a subscriber within an hour and last 120
seconds, the traffic is calculated as: A=1120/3600=33mErl
For convenience of engineering calculation, the traffic is usually
defined as 25mErl per subscriber.

In order to enhance channel anti-interference capacityand transmission quality, special redundancytechnologies should be adopted to increase the bulk
of transmitted information which can be inserted at acertain pattern (encoding) at the sending end andextracted at an agreed pattern (decoding) at thereceiving end. This is called the encoding/decoding
process of channels.
Commonly used channel coding methods are: 1)
convolutional coding; 2) Fire coding; 3) parity checkcoding.

In radio telecommunication, error bits often occurs inthe burst pulse sequence because of deep signal
fading. Check and correction of errors cannot be
efficiently done merely by means of channelencoding mentioned above. Interleaving technique is
thus adopted, by which the continuous bits in an
information block are segmented and transmittedindividually according to certain rules. That is, the
originally continuous block in the transmission
process becomes discontinuous, forming a group of
interwoven message transmitting blocks, which are tobe recovered (de-interleaving) into the original
information blocks at the receiving end.

Two aims can be achieved by adopting DTX mode. One is to
lower the total interference level in the air, and the other is to
save transmitter power. The DTX mode and the normal mode
are optional, since the former will slightly lower the transmissionquality.

Signals sent by a base station on the broadcasting
channel help mobile stations to synchronize with the base
station. After connection is set up between a mobilestation and the base station, the base station will make
continuous tests, and provide the time advance (TA) on
the SACCH channel to all mobile stations twice every
second according to the BS-MS-BS broadcasting delay.
Mobile stations will make self-adaptive frame adjustment
according to time advance so that the time of mobile
station transmission to the base station matches that ofbase station reception.

To enhance system anti-interference ability, the GSM
system adopts the frequency hopping technology.
Frequency hopping refers to the hopping of carrier wave
frequencies according to a certain sequence in a very
wide frequency range. Data of control information are
converted into base band signals after modulation, which
are then sent into carrier wave modulation. Afterwards,the carrier frequency changes under the control of
pseudo-random codes, the sequence of which is
frequency-hopping sequence. Finally, when filtered byradio filter, the carrier is transmitted to and radiated by
antenna.

Frequency hopping is to avoid external interference.
In other words, it is to prevent or greatly reduce co-
channel interference and frequency selective fadingeffect by converting frequencies to an extent that
interference cannot catch up with.
There are two frequency hopping modes: base band
frequency hopping and radio frequency hopping.
