What are the features of CDMA2000 in wireless communication?

CDMA2000, a widely used wireless communication technology, stands out for its efficient spectrum utilization through Code Division Multiple Access, offering high data rates, excellent call quality, and support for multimedia applications. It ensures smooth handovers, incorporates security measures, and is often backward compatible, allowing for global acceptance and interoperability with other networks. What are the … Read more

How Many CODES in CDMA?

There Are Three Codes in CDMA PN Long Code,PN Short Code & Walsh Code. PN Long Code The Long Code is a PN sequence that is 242 – 1 bits (chips) long. The long code is used to encrypt user information.  Both the base station and the mobile unit have knowledge of this sequence at … Read more

How Modulation-QPSK in CDMA ?

     In an actual application, the system implements the modulation in this way:  as shown above, I and Q channel sequences in the figure represent two channels of cyclic PN short code sequences.  The cyclic period of each channel of PN short codes is 215. For different sectors, there are different starting locations of I … Read more

How To Set Pilot Search Window Sizes in CDMA ?

When the handset first powers up, it does an exhaustive search for the best pilot. No windows are used in this process. On the paging channel, the handset learns the window sizes SRCH_WIN_A, N, R and uses them when looking for neighbors both in idle mode and during calls. When a strong neighbor is requested … Read more

Advantages of CDMA Handoff

Advantages of CDMA Handoff It is “soft”, meaning that communication is not interrupted by the handoff. This is sometimes called “make before break.” This means fewer dropped calls for users and higher customer satisfaction for operators. The handoff is not abrupt, but rather it is a prolonged call state during which there is communication via … Read more

Handoff Candidate Classification in CDMA

The mobile station continuously searches for Pilots to detect the presence of other CDMA signals that have the same carrier frequency and measures the strength (received Ec/Nt) of the pilots.  When the mobile station detects a Pilot of sufficient strength that is not associated with the serving cell/sector, it sends a message to the serving … Read more

Location Area Identity (LAI) and Global Cell Identity (GCI) in CDMA

Location Area Identity (LAI)  PAGING message is broadcast within a local area, the size of which depends on traffic, paging bearer capability, signaling flow , etc. Format:  MCC+MNC+LAC  MCC:  Mobile Country Code, 3 digits. MNC:  Mobile Network Code, 2 digits. LAC:  Location Area Code, a 2-byte-long hexadecimal BCD code. 0000 cannot be used with FFFE. … Read more

How to Reverse Access Channel Work in CDMA?

Reverse Access Channel used by MS Initiate Communication or Respond to Paging Channel. A reverse channel is first spread with WALSH to 307.2Kbps and then becomes 1.2288Mcps after long code modulation. The long code here not only spreads spectrum, but implements the function of channelization.  “Data burst randomizer” means discarding repeated chips during the transmission … Read more

Forward Traffic Channel of CDMA

Forward Traffic Channel is used to Transmit Data and Signaling Information. Symbol repetition makes symbol streams at different rates adapted to those at the rate of 19.2k. The original symbol stream at  the rate of 19.2Kbps will not be repeated, 9.6Kbps symbol stream will be repeated once, 4.8Kbps symbol stream will be repeated twice…. Then, … Read more

What is Work of Paging Channel in CDMA?

What is Work of Paging Channel in CDMA?The Paging Channel in CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) serves a crucial role in the efficient functioning of the communication system. As a dedicated control channel, the Paging Channel is responsible for transmitting important information, such as incoming calls and system messages, to mobile devices within a CDMA … Read more
