GSM is the globel system of organation . It consists of M.S,BSC MSC ,OMC,FIXED Phone.Mobile station is carried by the subscriber.and base station subsystem control the radio link with mobile station . The main part of system is mobile switching center perform switching of calls between the mobile and fixed or mobile network use. and operational and maintainence center oversees the proper operation and set up of the network. The MS and BSC communicate across the um link or air interface and BSC&MSC communicate across A interface.

5. GSM system overview
 The GSM system is a frequency- and time-division cellular system,
each physical channel is characterized by a carrier frequency and a
time slot number
 Cellular systems are designed to operate with groups of low-power
radios spread out over the geographical service area. Each group of
radios serve MSs presently located near them. The area served by
each group of radios is called a CELL
 Uplink and downlink signals for one user are assigned different
frequencies, this kind of technique is called Frequency Division Duplex
(FDD)
 Data for different users is conveyed in time intervals called slots ,
several slots make up a frame. This kind of technique is called Time
Division Multiple Access (TDMA)

6. GSM Development
1989 Standard Protocol for GSM take effect
1991 GSM system began to provide service in Europe(2G)
1992 System was named as Global System for
Mobile Communication
1994 Provide services for the whole world
1996 Micro Cell Technique is used in GSM system

7. Cell Technique
Macro Cell and Micro Cell
 A certain radio coverage area formed by a set of transceivers that
connected to a set of antennas is called a CELL.
 Macro Cell
 In the beginning , High-Power BTSs are adopted to provide services.
The BTS covers a wider area , but its frequency utilization is not
efficient. So , it can only provide a few channels for subscribers.
 Micro Cell
 Later the Low-Power BTS joins the system for getting a better service
area with high capacity . At the same time it adopts the frequency reuse
technique to improve the efficiency of the frequency utilization and also
the whole capacity of the network.

8. Multiple Access Technique
 Multiple Access Technique allows many subscribers to use the
same communication medium.
 There are three kinds of basic Multiple Access Technique :
FDMA , TDMA and CDMA.
 GSM system adopt FDD-TDMA (FDMA and TDMA together).

9. FDMA
 FDMA uses different frequency
channels to accomplish
Frequency communication.
 The whole frequency spectrum
available is divided into many
individual channels (for
transmitting and
receiving) ， every channel can
support the traffic for one
subscriber or some control
Time information.

10. TDMA
 TDMA accomplishes the
communication in different
Frequency
timeslot.
 A carrier is divided into
channels based on time.
Different signals occupy
different timeslots in certain
sequence , that is , many
signals are transmitted on
the same frequency in
Time different time.

11. CDMA
 CDMA accomplishes the
Frequency communication in different
code sequences.
 Special coding is adopted
before transmission, then
different information will
lose nothing after being
mixed and transmitted
together on the same
frequency and at the
same time.

 Mode 3: PDTCH+PACCH+PTCCH
 In case of small GPRS traffic, GPRS and circuit services use the same BCCH
and CCCH in the cell. In this case, only combination mode 3 is needed in the cell
 With the increase of traffic, the packet public channel should be configured in the

62. Diversity – What’s Diversity?
Receive diversity provides an effective technique for both
overcoming the impact of fading across the radio channel and
increasing the received signal to interference ratio.
The former is achieved by ensuring “uncorrelated” (i.e. low enough
correlated) fading between antenna branches i.e. not all antennas
experience fades at the same time.
