Uw1361-1) Market is asking for more advanced services than what is available now( voice calls & low data rate services).Market requirements are classified in three different sectionsUMTS1) Why 3G?MobilityVideo conferencingVideo telephonyWide band data servicesComputer Data E-mailReal time image transferMultimediaMobile ComputingVideo on demandInteractive video servicesElectronic newspaperTeleshoppingValue added internet servicesTV & Radio contributionsTelecommunicationComputer dataAudio-Video content<br />Data speed:<br />The data speed of 3G is determined based on a combination of factors including the chip rate, channel structure, power control, and synchronization.<br />An example of calculating the theoretical 3G data speed is as follows: <br />W-CDMA assigned code 400-500 Kpbs/code. 6 codes X 400 > 2Mbps (UMTS target for 3G data speed in fixed location) <br />Actual data speeds will vary in accordance with several factors including: <br />Number of users in cell/sector <br />Distance of user from cell <br />User is moving or stationary <br />Network operator capacity and network optimization requirements <br />Radio Access Method is Wideband Code Division Multiple Access(WCDMA). In GSM, we use TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) as the transmission method between the different network elements. For UMTS, ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) has been chosen as the transmission method in the radio access network. The basic difference between TDM and ATM is that in TDM, we use timeslots for conveying information between network elements. In ATM, on the other hand, the data is transmitted in cells (packets) of fixed size across the network. (An ATM cell has 48 octets of payload, 5 octets of headers.)<br />WCDMA technical characteristicsOptimized packet access on common or dedicated channel.High spectrum efficiency5 MHz carriersFrequency Division Duplex, FDD3.84 Mcps chip rateVariable spreading codes<br />COMPARISON OF WCDMA AND CDMA:<br />Both use a coding scheme that separates each subscriber from other subscribers<br />Both use control channels to manage the network<br />W-CDMA and CDMA2000 are not compatible from the perspective that they have different chip rates - 3.84 MCPS for W-CDMA vs. 1.2888 MCPS for CMDA2000. W-CDMA uses a 5 MHz channel. Initially, CDMA2000 uses only a 1.25 MHz channel, but with CDMA2000 3x, three 1.25 MHz channels can be combined to form a super channel structure.<br />W-CDMA is synchronous, relying on mobile station time measurements between two base stations, rather than using GPS as CDMA2000 does.<br />There are three modes of operation for W-CDMA/CDMA2000: <br />Direct Sequence (DS) W-CDMA (UMTS) for Frequency Divsion Duplex (FDD) <br />W-CDMA Time Division Duplex (TDD) <br />CDMA2000 Multi-carrier FDD <br />Each of the three radio interface methods may be employed on either a GSM or ANSI-based Core Network (CN).<br />IS-833 is a standard, developed by the 3GPP2, to support CDMA2000 1xRTT Radio Access Network (RAN) to interface with a GSM CN. RAN upgrade required includes CDMA base station and BSC. CN upgrade required includes CDMA PDSN and AAA server.<br />Services:<br /> SMS, EMS, MMS<br /> Location-based services<br /> 3G-324M Video<br /> VoIP w/o QoS; Push-to-Talk<br /> IP Multimedia Services (w/ QoS)<br /> Converged “All IP” networks<br />Applications:<br />Mobile Interview <br />In today's global scenario, the 3G technology will enable organizations and qualifiedcandidates to have a telephonic interview in a modern way through video conferencing.Traditional telephonic interview and personal interviews may be replaced by 3G voiceand video conferencing. This will reduce the cost and save the time of both theorganizations and the candidates.<br />Conferences <br />3G technology provides for video conferencing which can help the Human ResourceDepartment interact with their seniors at the time of urgency without wasting otherresources. This can be very much helpful when the concerned person is out of state orcountry.<br />File Transfer <br />With the advent of video and audio multimedia and a faster rate of downloading e-mailattachments, employees in an organization can request any urgent file or report they needto present to the clients. This will again reduce the burden on organization's resources andincrease employee effectiveness.<br />E -learning & M-learning <br />3G technology provides for internet browsing that will help the employees to surf andlearn using their 3G cell phones while traveling (m-learning) or from home. Theorganizations can schedule training modules for the employees of other branches throughvideo conferences.<br />Some more applications:<br /> Travel information<br /> Make request via voice<br /> Receive response in text<br /> Directions<br /> Make request via voice<br /> Receive initial response in text<br /> Get updates while traveling via voice<br />or SMS or rich graphics<br /> One-to-many messaging<br /> Record message via voice or text<br /> Deliver message via voice, SMS,E-mail.<br />CONCLUSION<br />Voice was the driver for the second generation mobile and has been a considerable success. Today, video and TV services are driving forward third generation (3G) deployement and in the future, low cost , high speed data will drive forward the 4th generation new data services , interactive T.V.<br />REFERENCES<br />www.scribd.com<br />www.wikipedia.com<br />www.mobileIN.com<br />techterms@whatis.com<br />www.google.com<br />www.bsnl.in<br />www.nmscommunications.com<br />
