Radio Interface of GSM: Channels
Radio Interface of GSM: Channels
continuously.
• Figure shows a so called normal burst as used for data transmission inside a time slot (user and signaling
data).
• In the diagram, the burst is only 546.5 µs long and contains 148 bits.
• The remaining 30.5 µs are used as guard space to avoid overlapping with other bursts due to different path
• Filling the whole slot with data allows for the transmission of 156.25 bit within 577 µs.
• Each physical TDM channel has a raw data rate of about 33.8 kbit/s, each radio carrier transmits
