Each question carries 10 marks. Q.1. (a) Why do Paging system need to provide low data rates? How does a low data rate leads to better coverage? (2) Ans. For paging system small RF bandwidths are used to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio at each paging receiver, so low data rates (6400 bps or less) are used. Simulcasting is used in paging systems to achieve better coverage. Simulcast is a simultaneous broadcast of page by a number of transmitters on a si gle radio frequency. These lower the data rate better the coverage in ov Paging systems are designed to provide reliable communication to subscribers wherever they are; whether inside a building, driving on a highway. or flying in an airplane. This necessitates large transmitter powers (on the order of kilowatts) and low data rates (a couple of thousand bits per second) for maximura coverage from cach base station. Q.1. ©) How will the Co channel interference is affected by choosing a smaller value of cluster size in cellular Wireless communication systems? (2) Ans. Assumed that the allocated spectrum and the cell size is fixed, less mumber of calls per cluster (that is, smaller value of cluster size) would mean more munbey of available channels per cell, higher system capacity per cell, but increase in co-channel interference due to reduced distance between co-channel cells Q1. (©) Why Rayleigh fading model characteristics is often applicable for outdoor urban applications? (2) Q.1. (d) What are the roles of TMSI and IMSI numbers in GSM? (2) Ans. IMSI: International Mobile Subscriber Identity ~ a unique identifiention that is associated with all GSM and UMTS network mobile phones. The SIM inside the Phone contains it as a G4 bit ficld. Used for acquiring certain details in Hoino Location Register or Visitor Location Register. IMSI is rarely sent for preventing eavesdroppers to identify and track the subseriber on the radio interface. It is presented as 15 digit long number, where first 3 digits represent the Mobile Country Code and followed by the Mobile Network Code Remaining digits are mobile station identification numba, within the customer base network. TMSI: Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity for most commonly sent between the mobile and the network.

(c) Why it is essential to implement power control ion the reverse channel in Is-95 CDMA? @) Ans. Power control is simply the technique of controlling the mobile transmit. power so ‘as to affect the cell-site received power, and hence the overall carrier-to-interference (CA) value, Like all other cellular communication systems, CDMA is also an interference limited system, But in a CDMA system, it is not cochannel and adjacent channel interference which pose serious bottlenecks, but rather the interference from other mobile users transmitting in the same frequency band at the same time in the system. Itis desirable for maximum efficiency that the power received at the base station from all the mobile users served by it must be nearly equal. If the received signal power is too low, there is a high probability of bit orrors or frame errors. If the received signal power is too high, interference increases. Power control is applied at both the mobile uusors as well as the base station, There are several power-control mechanisms that can be based on the signal strength perceived by the base station or can depend on other system parameters. Accordingly, the base station or the mobile user can either initiate oy ewer control. On one hand, itis important to implement good power control in farer tS minnie the near-far effet, On the ather hand, the transmit power should fe adequate enough so as to encounter the effects of fading and shadowing in order saree 8 fee link, quality. In the ense of CDMA, an important facor is that the Cros dae tint strength may be reasonably good but data frames are still received in Freread arn eterence. Therefore, itis preferred to use the Frame Brror Rate (FER) _ agend of ie received signal strenath for power-contral decisions I is safer to allow gyange of 0.2 per cont to 8 per cent FER, with error bursts of up to four frames, Its s0 assumed that an FER of 1 per cont with maximum error bursts of two frames will LP. University-[B.TECH]—Akash Books 2021-3 give optimum results. In IS-95, a slow mobile-assisted power control is employed on the forward channel, Since non-coherent detection is employed on the reverse channel, therefore implementation of power control is a must on the reverse channel. There are mainly two types of power-control mechanisms: an open-loop power control and a tlosed-loop pewer control. Because all the voice channels occupy the same frequency ‘and time slots, the received signals from multiple mobile users located anywhere within the periphery of the serving cell must all have the same received signal strength at the base station for proper detection. A mobile user that transmits unnecessarily at a large power may jam or interfere with the received signals of all the other mobile users. ‘The Ravantage of implementing strict power control is that the mobile user can operate at the minimum required Eb/NO for adequate performance. This increases battery life and reduces the size and weight of the mobile-user phone equipment. @.4. (a) What are the main steps in HLR restoration procedure in Gsm? (3) 4.

(b) What do you understand by power control in wireless nication? 8. Power control can substantially impact the capacity and perceived quality in ar wireless systems. Regardless o! the mode of multiple access — be it frequency, code division — power control is necessary to combat the intercell, or co-channel, ence that arises from frequency reuse. ditionally, power control is employed to minimize the intra-cell interference in tequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems. On an ideal channel, sible to maintain code orthogonality among all users of the same cell. A wireless tl introduces multipath, so this perfect code orthogonality is destroyed and the laperiences intracell interference. Power control is particularly crucial on the POM uplink: without it, the signal of a mobile at the cell periphery would be drowned tan interfering mobile situated close to the base station. Furthermore, on the Ds- {uplink the code waveforms of different users arrive at the receiver unsynchronized te another, Unless the receiver performs code resynchronization, the interference |, exacerbating this “near-far” problem and increasing the need for power interference can affect TDMA and FDMA systems as well, in the form of channel interference; for example, practical band pass filters cannot perfectly Adjacent frequencies, matched filters may not always sample over the correct r tersymbol interference across different users.

(b) Explain the radio propagation mechanism. Ans. Radio Propagation depends on the frequency being used & the type of atmospheric conditions prevailing. This can be divided among the following categories: (1) Free Space Propagation: Here the radio signal travels through the open + space. The distance coming in between the transmitter and receiver acts as the major loss for the strength of radio signal satellite communication is a major application for this type of communication (2) Ground wave Propagation: This mechanism of propagation occurs for the frequencies below 2MHZ. During the propagation, the signal follows the curvature of earth. The signals heard during the day time on the medium waveband are using this way of propagation. (g) Ionospheric Propagation: This is also known as sky wave propagation. This is used for a range of 2 to 30 MHz, Here the radio signal is reflected from the ionosphere towards the earth surface. (4) Troposphere Propagation: Here the signal travels through the troposphere where there is a significant change in refractive index of the air medium] Q.4. (a) Explain the path loss law. . ‘Ans. This law says that the power radiated from the surface of the antenna, falls as an inverse fonction of the distance, and follows the inverse square law (d2), received power is expressed in dB as - d pe -2010e( <4) because of this reason; this is also called as the 20 log(@) path loss law.
