Downlink Logical Channel in GSM

In 2G GSM Technology in forward direction Downlink (GSM BTS to GSM Mobile). There are mainly five Downlink Logical Channel in GSM. Frequency correction channel (FCCH) Synchronous channel (SCH) Broadcast control channel (BCCH) Paging channel (PCH) Access granted channel (AGCH) Frequency correction channel (FCCH) First start with FCCH which full form is frequency correction channel … Read more

Physical Combination of Logical Channel in GSM

As shown above, CCCH=PCH+RACH+AGCH; downlink CCCH=PCH+AGCH; and uplink CCCH=RACH. In the above combinations, combination 3 and 4 must be allocated to slot 0 of the BCCH carrier configured for the cell; while combination 5 must be allocated to timeslots 2, 4 and 6 of the BCCH carrier. The FACCH works in the frame stealing mode, … Read more

Uplink Logical Channel in GSM

1. Random access channel (RACH) It is an uplink channel used for MS randomly access to network by requesting for an SDCCH. The request includes a 3bit setup reason (call request, paging response, location update request and short message request etc.) and a 5bit random reference number for MS to differentiate the access granted messages. … Read more

Definition of Logical Channel in GSM

The physical channel is the medium over which the information is carried. The logical channel consists of the information carried over the physical channels. A Physical Channel (a TS, defined by a fixed position (0-7) on a given TDMA frame) may be used to broadcast messages containing different kinds of information: traffic messages for speech … Read more

What is Frame and Channel in GSM

The major basic concept concerned with the radio path transmission of the GSM system is the burst sequence (simplified as Burst). It is a string of transmission units including more than 100 modulation bits. The burst sequence has a restricted duration and seizes a restricted radio frequency spectrum. They can be described as output from … Read more

How Rectangular Interleaving for Control Channel in GSM

As All Channel Interleaving in GSM but control channel is some different interleaved its interleaving rectangular lets understand how it. The diagram below illustrates, in a simplified form, the principle of rectangular interleaving. This is applied to most control channels. The diagram shows a sequence of ‘control blocks’ after the encoding process. Each block contains … Read more
