Sectorizing an omnidirectional site can increase capacity while maintaining similar interference levels.
For a propagation exponent of n=4:
- The reuse factor RCS' can be increased to ~7
- Traffic channels per sector increase from 24 to ~40
- Total Erlang capacity increases from 6.16 to 23.2
For a propagation exponent of n=3:
- RCS' can be increased to ~5.7
- Traffic channels per sector increase from 24 to ~50
- Total Erlang capacity increases more, from 16.6 to 29.4 Erlangs
The capacity gain is higher for n=3 because path loss increases more

multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) downlink system. The system considered in this paper is based on two
linear beamforming schemes, that is, maximum ratio transmission (MRT) beamforming and zero-forcing (ZF)
beamforming. What’s more, we use minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation to get imperfect
channel state information (CSI). Compared with the perfect CSI case, both theoretical analysis and simulation

A Compact Multiple Band-Notched Planer Antenna with Enhanced Bandwidth Using ...Radita Apriana
UWB antenna with dual notched characteristics fed by microstrip transmission line is presented in
this paper. The tapered connection between the rectangular patch and the feed line is used to produce a
good impedance matching from 2.3 to 11.5 GHz. A dual band frequency notches are achieved using UDGS
loaded with lumped capacitors. The first notch frequency band is achieved using DGS to reduce the
interference with WIMAX from 3.3 to 3.7 Ghz. The second notch frequency band is also achieved using Uparasitic
strip placed in the ground plan to eliminate the interference with WLAN from 5.2 to 5.9 GHz.
Lumped capacitors are combined with the slot due to miniaturize the slot size. The size of the resonator is
reduced by more than 40% when lumped capacitors are used. The proposed antenna hasVSWR < 2
except the notched bands. The simulated results confirm that the antenna is suitable for UWB applications.

Task 2: profit by sectorization (14 points)
An omnidirectional site with RCS = 12 to be sectored. Estimate in from the following sub-tasks, so if a
capacity increase at consistent interference is achieved. Take the case in the lecture derived
analytical relationship between C / I and RCS with hexagonal Cell structures:
a) Due to the sectorization, the number of co-channel interferers of k = 6 on k = 2 is reduced.
The propagation exponent amounts to n = 4 which Site Reuse factor RCS 'can be chosen
after sectorization, if the interference situation will remain about the same? Compare the
Capacity C [Erl] the locations at B = 36 frequencies and 8 traffic channels per frequency and
pBLOCK = 2%.
Ans : Omnisite:
C / I = sqrt (3 * 12) ^ 4/6 = 216 36/12 * 8 = 24 traffic channels thus 6.16 Erlang
Sector Site:
216 = sqrt (3RCS ') ^ 4/2 thus RCS' ≈ 7 and almost int *36/7+ * 8 ≈ 40 TCH per location or 5
Frequencies. This can for example be 2/2/1 spread to sectors. So 16/16/8 TCHs and thus
9.8 / 9.8 / 3.6 = 23.2 Erlang Erlang

b.) Loosen the task a part) of a spreading coefficient of n = 3
Omnisite:
C / I = sqrt (3 * 12) ^ 3/6 = 36 to 36/12 * 8 = 24 traffic channels thus 16.6 Erlang
Sector Site:
36 = sqrt (3RCS ') ^ 3/2 thus RCS' ≈ 5.7 and almost int *36/5, 7+ * 8 ≈ 50 TCH per location, or 6.3
Frequencies. This can for example be 2/2/2oder3 distributed among the sectors. So TCHs 16/16/16
and 3 * 9.8 Erlang = 29.4 Erlang.
c.) Why is the Sektorisierungsgewinn in Teilaufgbe b.) higher than in Tasks a part)? May also occur
the case that the through sectorization Capacity is reduced at each location? If so, why?
Because the positive result of the lower coefficient of expansion of the influence of lower
Interference is significant, as the negative effect of the reduced profit pooling. Yes when the
negative effect of lower profit pooling predominates. E.G. at n = 5, or if a larger bandwidth.

lecture. Go out of oncoming traffic densities and the given cell surfaces:
A1 = 3.33 km ², 20km ² = A2, A3 = 50km ²
Category 1: 6.3 Erl / km ² traffic per cell 21, Erl, 4 TRX, ARCS = 48/4 = 12, PT = 5%
Category 2: 1.05 Erl / km ² traffic per cell 21, Erl, 4 TRX, ARCS = 48/4 = 12, PT = 5%
Category 3: 0.42 Erl / km ² traffic per cell 21, Erl, 4 TRX, ARCS = 48/4 = 12, PT = 5%
d) How many participants can be found in the cells and in the whole Mobile Network (Cat. 1 to 3)
can be supplied, if from an average call duration 1 minute is taken during rush hour? How big is the
assumed proportion of mobile phone users, if the population of the entire Region100.000 is?
1min Holding Time => 16mErl/Tln => 1260 pts per cell => (3 * 10 +15 +10) * 1260 = 55 * 1260 =
69300 pts total. Thus, 69.3% penetration rate.

Task 4: mobile channel (10 points)
a) It is in a radio channel Power Delay was gem profiles. Fig.3 determined. What is the value of στ
(RMS delay spread)? Is frequency selective Expected fading, when a data rate of 1 Mbit / s for a
binary modulation (and BT = 1) is expected? Thus intersymbol interference to and the use of an
equalizer expect meaningful?
τ = (1 * 1 +0.1 * 2 +1 * 3) / (1 +0.1 +1) = 2μs
"Τ ² '= (1 * 1 +0.1 * 4 +1 * 9) / (1 +0.1 +1) = 4.952μs
στ = sqrt ("τ ²" ² τ) = 0.976μs
Frequency selective fading, when Ts <10στ = 9.76μs
Ts = 1/1MHz = 1us
Thus: frequency selective fading and intersymbol interference. The use of a EQ is so useful
b.) For the channel estimation of the equalizer to work properly, the need for Duration of the TDMA
frame, the channel impulse response be invariant (condition ) for slow fading. How long is at a
maximum. speed of 100km / h and f = 900MHz, the maximum frame length to be so? How many bits
per TDMA frame would therefore max. make sense?
TTDMA <= λ/2/v=c/f/2/v=5990μs somit 5990 Bits.

Problem 3: Dimensioning Problem (GSM) (21 points)
a.) A future mobile operator purchased a GSM900 licence with B=36 frequencies. It is
foreseen to cover a city with 25 000 inhabitants. The penetration rate (=percentage of users,
which use cell phones) is 70% which are homogeneously spread over an area of 500km².
During main busy hour a user uses his phone for approximately 3 minutes. The blocking
probability should not exceed 2%. For the network design only omnidirectional cells will be
used. Compute the cell radius based on traffic requirements for the following three cases
a1.) ARCS = 18
a2.) ARCS = 12
a3.) ARCS = 6
Hint: Signalling traffic can be neglected. To compute the hexagonal cell area, use the
following formula: A = 2,6R².
b.) Consider the incomplete link budget in the table below and the following parameters:
Pcov=95% at the cell border, standard deviation σ=5dB. PTx,max=45dBm (adjustable in -2dB
steps), diversity gain and max. gain of an optional tower mounted amplifier (TMA): 3dB
each. Complete the link budget!

c.) Compute the cell radius based on the results of the link budget above? For
computation use the following propagation model: L[dB]=135+35,3log(R/[km]).
d.) Which ARCS should be recommended based on the results of problem a.) and
c.)? How many sites are necessary? Which Quality of Service do you expect for this
network: Pint, Pcov and Pblock?
At d = 1.68 km = 7.33 km ² A follows, and thus 68.2 Locations
This 256 Tln / cell or 12.8 Erl / cell to form 20 TCHs so 3 TRX
(2 and 4, are too little too much).
With ARCS = 12 both conditions are met, pint = 5%, pBLOCK will be better than 2% since 24
and 20 not available TCHs
is. Pcov at cell edge remains at 95%.

Problem 4: Mobile Communication Channel (6 points)
The local spatial average of a power delay profile is measured at 900 MHz as shown in fig. 2
a.) Compute the „mean excess delay“ and the „rms delay spread“.
Sketch both figures into Figure 2 above.
Tau=0,53μs
Tau²quer=7,64*10^-13s
Sigmatau=0,7μs
b.) Is it possible to transmit over this channel a 256 QAM signal with a bit rate of
2 Mbit/s without using an equalizer?
ISI = TS if less than 10simatau 7μs
Here: So 8Bit/Symbol Symbol rate 2 = Mbit/s/8Bit/symbol 1/4MBaud and thus symbol duration =
4μs
Thus frequency-selective fading
