  2. Agenda 2G in Egypt Second Generation CDMA • Introduction to

    CDMA • IS-95 system 2 E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014 © Ahmad El-Banna
  3. 2G in Egypt • Mobinil • 1998, Buy the 1st

    mobile license in Egypt from Telecom Egypt. • Contributors: Orascom Telecom Egypt &France Telecom Orange . • First announcement of EDGE Technology. • First usage of Micro BTS to cover El-Azhar tunnels and Metro/Subway stations. • Vodafone • 1998, got the 2nd mobile license in Egypt. • Known as (misr phone/ Click GSM) • Contributors: Vodafone, air touch and some local & International partners. • 2002, Vodafone Egypt instead of Click GSM. • 2007, 54.93% for Vodafone & 44.94% Telecom Egypt & 0.13 % free • Etisalat • In 2007, got the 3rd mobile license in Egypt. • Contributors: Etisalat Emirates , Egypt Post, NBE bank & others. • The first 3G (3.5 G) services (video call, mobile TV, .. ) in Egypt. • 1 million subscriber in 50 days ! • Currently provide 2G & 3G services. 4 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  4. 2G CDMA • Higher quality signals • Higher data rates

    • Support of digital services • Greater capacity • Digital traffic channels • Support digital data • Voice traffic digitized • User traffic (data or digitized voice) converted to analog signal for transmission • Encryption • Simple to encrypt digital traffic • Error detection and correction • Very clear voice reception • Channel access • Channel dynamically shared by users via Time division multiple access (TDMA) or code division multiple access (CDMA) • Each cell allocated frequency bandwidth • Split in two • Half for reverse, half for forward • Direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) 6 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  5. CDMA Advantages • Frequency diversity • Frequency-dependent transmission impairments (noise

    bursts, selective fading) have less effect • Multipath resistance • DSSS overcomes multipath fading by frequency diversity • Also, chipping codes used only exhibit low cross correlation and low autocorrelation • Version of signal delayed more than one chip interval does not interfere with the dominant signal as much • Privacy • From spread spectrum (see chapter 9) • Graceful degradation • With FDMA or TDMA, fixed number of users can access system simultaneously • With CDMA, as more users access the system simultaneously, noise level and hence error rate increases • Gradually system degrades 7 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  6. CDMA Disadvantages • Self-jamming • Unless all mobile users are

    perfectly synchronized, arriving transmissions from multiple users will not be perfectly aligned on chip boundaries • Spreading sequences of different users not orthogonal • Some cross correlation • Distinct from either TDMA or FDMA • In which, for reasonable time or frequency guardbands, respectively, received signals are orthogonal or nearly so • Near-far problem • Signals closer to receiver are received with less attenuation than signals farther away • Given lack of complete orthogonality, transmissions from more remote mobile units may be more difficult to recover 8 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  7. CDMA Design Consideration (RAKE Receiver) • If multiple versions of

    signal arrive more than one chip interval apart, receiver can recover signal by correlating chip sequence with dominant incoming signal • Remaining signals treated as noise • Better performance if receiver attempts to recover signals from multiple paths and combine them, with suitable delays • Original binary signal is spread by XOR operation with chipping code • Spread sequence modulated for transmission over wireless channel • Multipath effects generate multiple copies of signal • Each with a different amount of time delay (1, 2, etc.) • Each with a different attenuation factors (a1, a2, etc.) • Receiver demodulates combined signal • Demodulated chip stream fed into multiple correlators, each delayed by different amount • Signals combined using weighting factors estimated from the channel 9 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  8. IS-95 Channel Structure 11 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 ,

    Dec 2014 • IS-95 • Second generation CDMA scheme • Primarily deployed in North America • Transmission structures different on forward and reverse links
  9. IS-95 Forward Link • Up to 64 logical CDMA channels

    each occupying the same 1228- kHz bandwidth • Four types of channels: • Pilot (channel 0) • Continuous signal on a single channel • Allows mobile unit to acquire timing information • Provides phase reference for demodulation process • Provides signal strength comparison for handoff determination • Consists of all zeros • Synchronization (channel 32) • 1200-bps channel used by mobile station to obtain identification information about the cellular system • System time, long code state, protocol revision, etc. 12 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  10. IS-95 Forward Link.. • Paging (channels 1 to 7) •

    Contain messages for one or more mobile stations • Traffic (channels 8 to 31 and 33 to 63) • 55 traffic channels • Original specification supported data rates of up to 9600 bps • Revision added rates up to 14,400 bps • All channels use same bandwidth • Chipping code distinguishes among channels • Chipping codes are the 64 orthogonal 64-bit codes derived from 64  64 Walsh matrix 13 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  11. Forward Link Processing • Voice traffic encoded at 8550 bps

    • Additional bits added for error detection • Rate now 9600 bps • Full capacity not used when user not speaking • Quiet period data rate as low as 1200 bps • 2400 bps rate used to transmit transients in background noise • 4800 bps rate to mix digitized speech and signaling data • Data transmitted in 20 ms blocks • Forward error correction • Convolutional encoder with rate ½ • Doubling effective data rate to 19.2 kbps • For lower data rates encoder output bits (called code symbols) replicated to yield 19.2-kbps • Data interleaved in blocks to reduce effects of errors by spreading them 14 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  12. Scrambling • After interleaver, data scrambled • Privacy mask •

    Prevent sending of repetitive patterns • Reduces probability of users sending at peak power at same time • Scrambling done by long code • Pseudorandom number generated from 42-bit-long shift register • Shift register initialized with user's electronic serial number • Output of long code generator is at a rate of 1.2288 Mbps • 64 times 19.2 kbps • One bit in 64 selected (by the decimator function) • Resulting stream XORed with output of block interleaver 15 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
  13. Power Control & DSSS • Next step inserts power control

    information in traffic channel • To control the power output of antenna • Robs traffic channel of bits at rate of 800 bps by stealing code bits • 800-bps channel carries information directing mobile unit to change output level • Power control stream multiplexed into 19.2 kbps • Replace some code bits, using long code generator to encode bits 16 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014 DSSS: • Spreads 19.2 kbps to 1.2288 Mbps • Using one row of Walsh matrix • Assigned to mobile station during call setup • If 0 presented to XOR, 64 bits of assigned row sent • If 1 presented, bitwise XOR of row sent • Final bit rate 1.2288 Mbps • Bit stream modulated onto carrier using QPSK • Data split into I and Q (in-phase and quadrature) channels • Data in each channel XORed with unique short code • Pseudorandom numbers from 15-bit-long shift register

    forward channel • Convolutional encoder rate 1/3 • Tripling effective data rate to max. 28.8 kbps • Data block interleaved • Spreading using Walsh matrix • Use and purpose different from forward channel • Data from block interleaver grouped in units of 6 bits • Each 6-bit unit serves as index to select row of matrix (26 = 64) • Row is substituted for input • Data rate expanded by factor of 64/6 to 307.2 kbps • Done to improve reception at BS • Because possible codings orthogonal, block coding enhances decision- making algorithm at receiver • Also computationally efficient • Walsh modulation form of block error-correcting code • (n, k) = (64, 6) and dmin = 32 • In fact, all distances 32 19 © Ahmad El-Banna E-716-A, Lec#8 , Dec 2014
