  2. Data services in GSM I Data transmission standardized with only 9.6 kbit/s  advanced coding allows 14,4 kbit/s  not enough for Internet and multimedia applications HSCSD (High-Speed Circuit Switched Data)  mainly software update  bundling of several time-slots to get higher AIUR (Air Interface User Rate) (e.g., 57.6 kbit/s using 4 slots, 14.4 each)  advantage: ready to use, constant quality, simple  disadvantage: channels blocked for voice transmission AIUR [kbit/s] TCH/F4.8 TCH/F9.6 TCH/F14.4 4.8 1 9.6 2 1 14.4 3 1 19.2 4 2 28.8 3 2 38.4 4 43.2 3 57.6 4

  3. Data services in GSM II GPRS (General Packet Radio Service)  Avoids the problems of HSCSD by packet switching  Network providers charge on volume rather than duration  One to 8 slots can be allocated per frame, no fixed assignment but on demand advantage : one step towards UMTS, more flexible  Maximum rate 171.2kbps but … disadvantage : more investment needed (new hardware)  Available data rate depends on the current cell load: using free (idle) slots only if data packets ready to send  Transfer rate depends on the capabilities of the MS, also the maximum number of slots per frame is limited  Typical Class 10 device achieves a receiving rate of 53.6kbps and a sending rate of 26.8kbps  All GPRS services can be used in parallel to conventional GSM services

  4. GPRS network elements GSN (GPRS Support Nodes): GGSN and SGSN (Routers)  GGSN (Gateway GSN)  interworking unit between GPRS and PDN (Packet Data Networks; IP, X25)  Performs address conversion, tunnels data  Connected to IP networks  SGSN (Serving GSN)  supports the MS (location, billing, security-ciphering)  the delivery of data packets from and to the mobile stations within its geographical service area  GR (GPRS Register also called Gateway Location Register)  user addresses, part of HLR, current SGSN, current VLR

  6. Towards 3G: UMTS and IMT-2000 Proposals for IMT-2000 (International Mobile Telecommunications)  UWC-136, cdma2000, WP-CDMA  UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) from ETSI (European Proposal) UMTS  UTRA (was: UMTS, now: Universal Terrestrial Radio Access): the radio interface  requirements  min. 144 kbit/s rural (goal: 384 kbit/s)  min. 384 kbit/s suburban (goal: 512 kbit/s)  up to 2 Mbit/s urban  Should be compatible with GSM, IP and ISDN-based networks

  7. IMT-2000 family As a single standard could not be found, the ITU standardized five groups of 3G Radio Access Technologies Interface for Internetworking IMT-2000 GSM ANSI-41 IP-Network Core Network (MAP) (IS-634) ITU-T Initial UMTS Flexible assignment of (R99 w/ FDD) Core Network and Radio Access IMT-TC IMT-DS IMT-MC IMT-SC IMT-FT (Time Code) (Direct Spread) (Multi Carrier) (Single Carrier) (Freq.

  8. Enhancements of GSM EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution) – 2.75G:  GSM up to 384 kbit/s, using the same 200kHz wide carrier and the same frequencies  Uses enhanced modulation techniques, 8PSK instead of GMSK CAMEL (Customized Application for Mobile Enhanced Logic)  VHE (virtual Home Environment) for visiting subscribers  services to be offered when a subscriber is roaming, like, for instance, no-prefix dialing  QoS Aspects, several migration aspects …

  13. Spreading and scrambling of user data UMTS uses DS-CDMA Constant chipping rate of 3.84 Mchip/s Different user data rates supported via different spreading factors  higher data rate: less chips per bit and vice versa User separation via unique, orthogonal scrambling codes  users are not separated via orthogonal spreading codes  much simpler management of codes: each station can use the same orthogonal spreading codes

  14. Spreading Data The first step in a sender is spreading user data using orthogonal spreading codes. This separates the different data streams of a sender. These codes are called orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) codes.  Doubles a chipping sequence X with and without flipping the sign of the chips: X and – X  The spreading factor sf=n become sf=2n

  15. OVSF coding 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1 1,1,1,1 ... 1,1,1,1,-1,-1,-1,-1 1,1 1,1,-1,-1,1,1,-1,-1 ... 1,1,-1,-1 X,X 1,1,-1,-1,-1,-1,1,1 1 X 1,-1,1,-1,1,-1,1,-1 X,-X ... 1,-1,1,-1 1,-1,1,-1,-1,1,-1,1 1,-1 SF=n SF=2n 1,-1,-1,1,1,-1,-1,1 ... 1,-1,-1,1 1,-1,-1,1,-1,1,1,-1 SF=1 SF=2 SF=4 SF=8

  16. Spreading and Scrambling of user Data OVSF spreads the data streams but the spreading codes chosen in the senders can be the same After spreading all chip streams are added and scrambled. Scrambling does not further spread the chip sequence but XORs chips based on a code In the FDD mode, this code is unique for each sender and separates all sender s In the TDD mode, the scrambling code is cell specific. data 1 data 2 data 3 data 4 data 5 spr. spr. spr. spr. spr. code 1 code 2 code 3 code 1 code 4 scrambling scrambling code 1 code 2 sender 1 sender 2

  18. UTRA-FDD Channels Dedicated Physical Data Channel (DPDCH): Conveys user or signaling data. Spreading factor varies between 4 and 256 Data rates: 960 kbps(spreading factor 4), 480, 240, 120, 60, 30, 15kbps (spreading factor 256) Dedicated Physical Control Channel (DPCCH): Conveys control data for the physical channel Constant spreading factor, 256. Dedicated Physical Channel (DPCH): Multiplexes user and control data Spreading factors between 4 and 512 Data rates 6, 24, 51, 90, 210, 432, 912, and 1872kbps

  19. UTRA-FDD Medium Access No collisions on the downlink: Only the Basestation sends Uplink: Nodes use slotted Aloha (15 random access slots) Access a slot by sending a preamble with the lowest transmission power If no acknowledgement is received, try another slot with the next transmission power level
