MOBILE AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
Introduction to Mobile Communication:
o Mobile communication involves the transmission of voice and
data using wireless means, allowing users to communicate while
on the move.
o The key advantage is mobility, enabling communication anytime,
anywhere.
Basic Components of a Mobile Communication System:
o Mobile Station (MS): The device used by the end-user, such as
a mobile phone.
o Base Station (BS):** A fixed station that communicates with
the mobile stations in its coverage area.
o Mobile Switching Center (MSC): Manages call connections,
call routing, and handovers.
o Network Subsystem: Includes MSC, Home Location Register
(HLR), Visitor Location Register (VLR), and Authentication Center
(AUC).
Frequency Reuse:
o To maximize the capacity of a cellular network, frequencies are
reused in different cells.
o Cells are divided into clusters, and the same frequencies can be
reused in non-adjacent cells to minimize interference.
Cellular Networks:
o A cellular network consists of many small cells, each served by a
base station.
o Cells are grouped into different regions, and each region has a
Mobile Switching Center.
Wireless Communication Channels:
o Downlink (DL): Transmission from the base station to the
mobile device.
o Uplink (UL):Transmission from the mobile device to the base
station.
o Duplex Communication: Simultaneous communication in both
directions.
Modulation and Demodulation:
o Modulation is the process of varying a carrier signal's properties
to encode information.

- Demodulation is the reverse process, extracting the original information
from the modulated signal.
Multiplexing Techniques:
- Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM): Allocating different
frequency bands to different conversations.
- Time Division Multiplexing (TDM): Allocating time slots to different
conversations.
Wireless Standards:
2G (GSM):Digital cellular technology providing voice and limited data
services.
3G (UMTS): Higher data rates, multimedia support, and improved network
capacity.
4G (LTE):High-speed data, low latency, and improved spectral efficiency.
5G:Next generation with faster data rates, lower latency, and enhanced
connectivity.
Handover:
- The process of transferring an ongoing call or data session from one base
station to another.
- Ensures seamless connectivity as the user moves through different cells.
Security in Mobile Communication:
- Techniques like encryption and authentication protect user data and
privacy.
- Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) cards are used to authenticate and
identify users.
