2 Overview of GSM Operation
2.1 Cellular Phone Concept
The cellular system was first used to provide radiotelephone service in the frequency
range 890-960 MHz. A cellular system provides higher call handling capacity and system
availability than would be possible with conventional radiotelephone systems (those
which require total system area coverage on every operating channel) by dividing the
system coverage area into several adjoining sub-areas or cells.
Each cell contains a base station (cell site) that provides transmitting and receiving
facilities, for an allocated set of duplex frequency pairs (channels). Since each cell is a
relatively small area, both the cell site and the radiotelephone that it supports can
operate at lower power levels than would be used in conventional systems.
Using this technique, radiation on a given channel is virtually contained in the cell
operating on that channel and, to some extent, those cells directly adjacent to that cell.
Since the coverage area of a cell on a given channel is limited to a small area
(relative to the total system coverage area), a channel may be reused in another cell
outside the coverage area of the first. By this means, several subscribers may operate
within the same geographic area, without interference with each other, on a single
channel.
2.2 GSM-Global System for Mobile communications
Unlike former cellular systems, GSM uses digital radio techniques. The GSM system
has the following advantages over previous analogue systems:
International Roaming - Due to international harmonization and standardization, it will be
possible to make and receive calls in any country, which supports a GSM system.
Digital Air Interface - The GSM phone will provide an entirely digital link between the
telephone and the base station, which is, in turn, digitally linked into the switching
subsystems and on into the PSTN.
ISDN Compatibility - ISDN is a digital communications standard that many countries are
committed to implementing. It is designed to carry digital voice and data over existing
copper telephone cables. The GSM phone will be able to offer similar features to the
ISDN telephone.
Security and Confidentiality – Telephone calls on analogue systems can very easily be
VOXTEL Technical Documentation 6
VS600 Service Manual
overheard by the use of a suitable radio receiver. GSM offers vastly improved
confidentiality because of the way in which data is digitally encrypted and transmitted.
Better Call Quality - Co-channel interference, handover breaks, and fading will be dealt
with more effectively in the digital system. The call quality is also enhanced by error
correction, which reconstructs lost information.
Efficiency - The GSM system will be able to use spectral resources in a much more
efficient way than previous analogue.
2.3 GSM System
In the figure below, the area bounded by bold lines represents the total coverage
area of a hypothetical system. This area is divided into several cells, each containing a
cell site (base station) operating on a given set of channels which interfaces
radiotelephone subscribers to the telephone switching system.
The radiotelephones themselves are capable of operation on any channel in the
system, allowing them to operate in any cell. Due to the low power requirements for
communications between radiotelephones in a particular cell and the cell site, operating
channels may be repeated in cells that are outside the coverage area of each other.
For example, presume that cell A operates on channels arbitrarily numbered 1
through 8, cell B operates on channels 9 through 16, cell C operates on channels 17
through 24 and cell D operates on channels 1 through 8 (repeating the usage of those
VOXTEL Technical Documentation 7
VS600 Service Manual
channels used by cell A). In this system, subscribers in cell A and subscribers in cell D
could simultaneously operate on channels 1 through 8.
The implementation of frequency re-use increases the call handling capability of the
system without increasing the number of available channels. When re-using identical
frequencies in a small area, co-channel interference can be a problem. The GSM
system can tolerate higher levels of co-channel interference than analogue systems, by
incorporating digital modulation, forward error correction and equalization. This means
that cells using identical frequencies can be physically closer, than similar cells in
analogue systems. Therefore the advantage of frequency re-use can be further
enhanced in a GSM system, allowing greater traffic handling in hi gh use areas.
By incorporating Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) several calls can share the
same carrier. The carrier is divided into a continuous stream of TDMA frames, each
frame is split into eight time slots. When a connection is required the system allocates
the subscriber a dedicated time slot within each TDMA frame. User data (speech/data)
for transmission is digitized and sectioned into blocks. The user data blocks are sent as
information bursts in the allocated time slot of each TDMA frame.
The data blocks are modulated onto the carrier using Gaussian Minimum Shift
Keying (GMSK), a very efficient method of phase modulation.
Each time an information burst is transmitted, it may be transmitted on a different
frequency. This process is known as frequency hopping. Frequency hopping reduces
the effects of fading, and enhances the security and confidentiality of the link. A GSM
radiotelephone is only required to transmit for one burst in each frame, and not
continually, thus enabling the unit to be more power efficient.
Each radiotelephone must be able to move from one cell to another, with minimal
inconvenience to the user. The mobile it self carries out signal strength measurement s on
adjacent cells, and the quality of the traffic channel is measured by both the mobile and
the base station. The handover criteria can thus be much more accurately determined,
and the handover made before the channel quality deteriorates to the point that the
subscriber notices.
When a radiotelephone is well within a cell, the signal strength measured will be high.
As the radiotelephone moves towards the edge of the cell, the signal strength and
quality measurement decreases.
Signal information provides an indication of the subscriber’s distance from the base
station. As the radiotelephone moves from cell to cell, its control is handed from one
VOXTEL Technical Documentation 8
VS600 Service Manual
base station to another in the new cell.
This change is handled by the radiotelephone and base stations, and is completely
transparent to the user.
2.4 Service Area
A service area, where phone calls can be originated and received, is defined by the
system operators. (Because this is a radio system, there is no exact boundary that can
be drawn on a map.) If the telephone is outside a coverage area, the (no service)
indicator will illuminate and calls will be unable to be placed or received. If this happens
during a conversation, the call will be lost. There may also be small areas within a
particular service area where communications may be lost.
The radiotelephone’s identity information is held by its local GSM system in its Home
Location Register (HLR) and Visitor Location Register (VLR). The VLR contains identity
information on all local active radiotelephones. Should you roam to another area, system
or country the radiotelephones identity information is sent to the VLR in the new system.
The new system will then check the radiotelephones details with your home system for
authenticity. If everything is in order, it will be possible to initiate and receive calls within
the new cell.
