IS-95 (8)
❖ Frequency Reuse Factor
▪ In an IS-95 system, the frequency-reuse factor is normally 1
because the interference from neighboring cells cannot affect
CDMA or DSSS transmission.
❖ Soft Handoff
▪ Every base station continuously broadcasts signals using its
pilot channel.
▪ This means a mobile station can detect the pilot signal from
its cell and neighboring cells.
▪ This enables a mobile station to do a soft handoff in contrast
to a hard handoff.

❖ Personal Access Communication System (PACS)
▪ PACS is a third generation Personal Communications System
originally developed and proposed by Bellcore in 1992.
▪ PACS is able to support voice, data, and video images for
indoor and microcell use.
▪ PACS is designed to provide coverage within a 500 meter
range.
▪ The main objective of PACS is to integrate all forms of
wireless local loop communications into one system with full
telephone features, in order to provide wireless connectivity
for local exchange carriers (LECs).
▪ Bellcore developed PACS concept with LECs in mind and
named it Wireless Access Communication System (WACS),
but when the Federal Communications Commission
introduced an unlicensed PCS band, the WACS standard was
modified to produce PACS.
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-36
PACS (2)
❖ Personal Access Communication System (PACS)
▪ In the original WACS proposal, ten TDMA/FDM time slots
were specified in a 2 ms frame, and a 500 kbps channel data
rate was proposed for a channel bandwidth of 350 kHz using
QPSK modulation.
▪ In PACS, the channel bandwidth, the data rate, the number of
slots per frame, and the frame duration were altered slightly,
and π/4 QPSK was chosen over QPSK.

bands in Japan.
▪ PDC is also known as Japanese Digital Cellular (JDC).
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-39
PDC (2)
❖ PDC is somewhat similar to the IS-54 standard, but uses 4-ary
modulation for voice and control channels, making it more like
IS-136 in North America.
❖ Frequency division duplexing and TDMA are used to provide
three time slots for three users in a 20 ms frame (6.67 ms per user
slot) on a 25 kHz radio channel.
❖ On each channel, π/4 DQPSK is used, with a channel data rate of
42 kbps.
❖ Channel coding is provided using a rate 9/17, K = 5
convolutional code with CRC.
❖ Speech coding is provided with a 6.7 kbps VSELP speech coder.
❖ An additional 4.5 kbps is provided by the channel coding,
thereby proving 11.2 kbps of combined speech and channel
coding per user.
❖ A new half-rate speech and channel coding standard will support
six users per 20 ms frame.
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-40
PDC (3)
❖ PDC is allocated 80 MHz in Japan.
❖ The low PDC band uses 130 MHz forward/reverse
channel splits.
❖ The forward band uses 940 MHz to 956 MHz and the
reverse band 810 MHz to 826 MHz.
❖ The high PDC band uses 48 MHz channel splits and
operates in 1477 MHz to 1501 MHz for the forward
link and 1429 MHz to 1453 MHz for the reverse link.
❖ PDC uses mobile assisted handoff (MAHO) and is able
to support 4-cell reuse.

© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-43
PHS (2)
❖ The PHS standard, like DECT and PACS-UB, uses
TDMA and TDD.
❖ Four duplex data channels are provided on each radio
channel.
❖ π/4 DQPSK modulation at a channel rate of 384 kbps is
used on both forward and reverse links.
❖ Each TDMA frame is 5 ms in duration, and 32 kbps
ADPCM is used in conjunction with CRC error
detection (without correction).
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-44
PHS (3)
❖ PHS supports seventy-seven radio channels, each 300
kHz wide, in the 1895 MHz to 1918.1 MHz band.
❖ Forty channels in the 1906.1 MHz to 1918.1 MHz are
designated for public systems, and the other
thirty-seven channels are used for home or office use in
the 1895 MHz to 1906.1 MHz band.
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-45
PHS (4)
❖ PHS uses dynamic channel assignment, so base stations
are able to allocate channels based on the RF
(interference) signal strength seen at both the base and
portable.
❖ PHS uses dedicated control channels (unlike DECT)
which all subscribers lock to while idle.
❖ Handoffs are supported only at walking speeds, as PHS
is designed for microcell/indoor PCS use

Wireless Cable TV (1)
❖ U.S. wireless cable systems use microwave radio
frequencies in the 2150 MHz to 2160 MHz and 2500
MHz to 2700 MHz bands to provide multiple channel
television programming similar to that offered by
traditional hard wire ("wireline") cable systems.
❖ The microwave signals are transmitted over the air from
a transmission tower to an antenna at each subscriber's
home, thus eliminating the need for the large networks
of cable and amplifiers required by wireline cable
operators.
© Wireless Communications – Principles & Practice, TS Rappaport Wireless Systems and Standards 4-48
Wireless Cable TV (2)
❖ A typical wireless system consists of head-end
equipment (satellite signal reception equipment, radio
transmitter, other broadcast equipment, and
transmission antenna) and reception equipment at each
subscriber location (antenna, frequency conversion
device, and set-top device).
❖ Currently, wireless cable systems are licensed by the
Federal Communications Commission to deliver up to
thirty-three channels of programming and typically
deliver programming on twenty to thirty-five channels,
including local "off-air" broadcast channels that are
received directly by the customer's antenna rather than
retransmitted by the wireless cable operator.

Fourth Generation 4G (3)
❖ Access Scheme
▪ To increase efficiency, capacity, and scalability, new access
techniques are being considered for 4G.
▪ For example, orthogonal FDMA (OFDMA) and interleaved
FDMA (IFDMA) are being considered respectively for the
downlink and uplink of the next generation Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System (UMTS).
▪ Similarly, multicarrier code division multiple access
(MC-CDMA) is proposed for the IEEE 802.20 standard.
