Brief notes on the importance of the course and how it fits into the curriculum Wireless communications has become essential part in our day to day life. During recent years there has been significant improvement in the field of wireless communication technology and has rapidly evolved from first generation (1G) to fourth generation (4G). The rapid growth of cellular phones, which principle carry voice are now being widely used for communicating data and images. The communication aspects of this subject depends on the fundamentals of communication engineering. To understand this technology, it is important to know in detail, a number of concepts associated with cellular mobile communication. This course is mainly aimed toward senior year students of the ECE discipline, and in particular, for the final year BTech, and first year M.Tech.

    MOBILE COMMUNICATION UNIT 1.

Communication Systems can be Wired or Wireless and the medium used for communication can be Guided or Unguided. In Wired Communication, the medium is a physical path like Co-axial Cables, Twisted Pair Cables and Optical Fiber Links etc. which guides the signal to propagate from one point to other. Such type of medium is called Guided Medium. On the other hand, Wireless Communication doesn’t require any physical medium but propagates the signal through space. Since, space only allows for signal transmission without any guidance, the medium used in Wireless Communication is called Unguided Medium. If there is no physical medium, then how does wireless communication transmit signals? Even though there are no cables used in wireless communication, the transmission and reception of signals is accomplished with Antennas. Antennas are electrical devices that transform the electrical signals to radio signals in the form of Electromagnetic (EM) Waves and vice versa. These Electromagnetic Waves propagates through space. Hence, both transmitter and receiver consist of an antenna. What is Electromagnetic Wave? Electromagnetic Waves carry the electromagnetic energy of electromagnetic field through space. Electromagnetic Waves include Gamma Rays (γ – Rays), X – Rays, Ultraviolet Rays, Visible Light, Infrared Rays, Microwave Rays and Radio Waves.

  • IL SERVIZIO DI RADIOAMATORE L’Attività Di Radioamatore, Che Ha Preso L’Avvio Agli Inizi Del XX Secolo, È Una Delle Più Antiche Nel Campo Delle Telecomunicazioni
    Un po’ di storia… IL SERVIZIO DI RADIOAMATORE L’attività di radioamatore, che ha preso l’avvio agli inizi del XX secolo, è una delle più antiche nel campo delle telecomunicazioni. La definizione formale, ed ufficiale, del servizio di radioamatore, è contenuta nel regolamento Internazionale delle Telecomunicazioni, stilato e pubblicato a cura della International Telecommunication Union (I.T.U.). Il radiantismo costituisce l’unico mezzo attraverso il quale singoli individui, distanti fra loro anche migliaia di chilometri, possono venire a contatto e a conoscenza senza coinvolgere alcun intermediario. Questa é l’impostazione generale dell’attività radiantistica secondo le convenzioni della I.T.U. e della I.A.R.U. (International Amateur Radio Union), l’ente costituito dall’unione di tutte le Associazioni di radioamatori del mondo, e che le rappresenta ad alto livello internazionale. QUANDO É NATO IL RADIANTISMO Gli inizi del radiantismo prendono il loro avvio, in analogia con quelli della Radio in generale, dai fenomeni fisici ed elettrici preliminarmente studiati dai precursori del settore. Infatti, dopo le antiche e poco più che casuali ricerche di Ampere, Faraday, Galvani e altri, nonché dopo i primi inquadramenti teorici da parte di Maxwell ed Hertz, fu Guglielmo Marconi che (mettendo in pratica applicazione tutto quanto da altri anticipato, assieme alle proprie intuizioni) sviluppò il primo sistema di telecomunicazione ad onde hertziane, atto a trasmettere e ricevere messaggi via radio. Era il 1895: i mezzi a disposizione, i sistemi

  • History of Mobile Phones
    History of mobile phones From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search The history of mobile phones charts the development of devices which connect wirelessly to the public switched telephone network. Early devices were bulky and consumed high power and the network supported only a few simultaneous conversations. Modern cellular networks and microprocessor control systems allow automatic and pervasive use of mobile phones for voice and data communications. The transmission of speech by radio has a long and varied history going back to Reginald Fessenden's invention and shore-to-ship demonstration of radio telephony, through the Second World War with military use of radio telephony links. Mobile telephones for automobiles became available from some telephone companies in the 1950s. Hand-held radio transceivers have been available since the Second World War. Mobile phone history is often divided into generations (first, second, third and so on) to mark significant step changes in capabilities as the technology improved.

The undersigned makes this statement as D. George Sweigert under the penalties of perjury. At the onset, the undersigned apologizes for the length of this document, but as the Defendant has made dozens of allegations, based on this subject matter, it cannot be avoided. 2. As a preliminary matter, the undersigned takes offense to the term “holster sniffer” to describe the Plaintiff’s non-profit volunteer support of local agencies by the Defendant and the ghost writer attorney that assisted with the pleading papers presently under review (ECF 279/280). The Court should understand that this is the equivalent of using the N word in the undersigned’s opinion. Part of this affidavit summarizes the lack of decorum by the Defendant that has ever been present in this litigation. 3. The undersigned is primarily interested in retaining his reputation in the fields of critical infrastructure protection and emergency management, which took a lifetime to build, from the Defendant.

  • Unit-I Cellular Mobile Radio Systems
    UNIT-I CELLULAR MOBILE RADIO SYSTEMS Limitations of conventional mobile systems over cellular mobile system Limitations of conventional mobile telephone systems: One of many reasons for developing a cellular mobile telephone system and deploying it in many cities is the operational limitations of conventional mobile telephone systems: limited service capability, poor service performance, and inefficient frequency spectrum utilization. 1. Limited service capability: A conventional mobile telephone system is usually designed by selecting one or more channels from a specific frequency allocation for use in autonomous geographic zones, as shown in Fig.1.1. The communications coverage area of each zone is normally planned to be as large as possible, which means that the transmitted power should be as high as the federal specification allows. The user who starts a call in one zone has to reinitiate the call when moving into a new zone because the call will be dropped. This is an undesirable radio telephone system since there is no guarantee that a call can be completed without a handoff capability. The handoff is a process of automatically changing frequencies as the mobile unit moves into a different frequency zone so that the conversation can be continued in a new frequency zone without redialing. Another disadvantage of the conventional system is that the number of active users is limited to the number of channels assigned to a particular frequency zone. Fig1.1 Conventional Mobile System 2. Poor Service Performance: In the past, a total of 33 channels were all allocated to three mobile telephone systems: Mobile Telephone Service (MTS), Improved Mobile Telephone Service (IMTS) MJ systems, and Improved Mobile Telephone Service (IMTS) MK systems.

He applied this patent to "cave radio" telephones and not directly to cellular telephony as the term is currently understood.[1] In 1910 Lars Magnus Ericsson installed a telephone in his car, although this was not a radio telephone. While travelling across the country, he would stop at a place where telephone lines were accessible and using a pair of long electric wires he could connect to the national telephone network.[2] In Europe, radio telephony was first used on the first-class passenger trains between Berlin and Hamburg in 1926. At the same time, radio telephony was introduced on passenger airplanes for air traffic security. Later radio telephony was introduced on a large scale in German tanks during the Second World War. After the war German police in the British zone of occupation first used disused tank telephony equipment to run the first radio patrol cars.[citation needed] In all of these cases the service was confined to specialists that were trained to use the equipment. In the early 1950s ships on the Rhine were among the first to use radio telephony with an untrained end customer as a user.
