16 MARK QUESTIONS

Unit-11. Cellular Systems.

Cellular systems for mobile communications implement SDM. Each transmitter, typically called a base station, covers a certain area, a cell. Cell radii can vary from tens of meters in buildings, and hundreds of meters in cities, up to tens ofkilometers in the countryside. The shape of cells are never perfect circles or hexagons.

Robustness

2. MAC. SDMA TDMA( Question-3) FDMA CDMA( Question-4)

3. TDMA.

Fixed TDM

The advantages of cellular systems. Higher capacity Less transmission power Local interface only

Classical Aloha

Slotted Aloha

Carrier sense multiple access

One improvement to the basic Aloha is sensing the carrier before accessing the medium.Demand assigned multiple access.

PRMA packet reservation multiple access

Reservation TDMA

Multiple access with collision avoidance Multiple access with collision avoidance (MACA) presents a simple scheme that solves

the hidden terminal problem, does not need a base station, and is still a random access Aloha scheme – but with dynamic reservation.

Request to send (RTSclear to send (CTS).

Polling Polling is a strictly centralized scheme with one master station and several slave stations.

The master can poll the slaves according to many schemes: round robin

Inhibit sense multiple accessThe base station only signals a busy medium via a busy tone (called BUSY/IDLE

indicator) on the downlink.

4. CDMA.Code division multiple access (CDMA) systems use exactly these codes to separate different users in code space and to enable access to a shared medium without interference. A code for a certain user should have a good autocorrelation2 and should be orthogonal to other codes.

Coding and spreading of data from sender A

Reconstruction of A’s data
