What is Network Identity Parameter CGI in GSM

What is Network Identity Parameter CGI in GSM In GSM, the Network Identity Parameter CGI (Cell Global Identity) is a code that uniquely identifies a specific cell in a mobile network. It comprises the Mobile Country Code (MCC), Mobile Network Code (MNC), Location Area Code (LAC), and Cell Identity (CI). The CGI helps in identifying … Read more

Timing Advance in GSM

Timing Advance in GSM Transmission delay is unavoidable in the radio interface. If the mobile station moves away from the base station during a call, the further distance the more delay. The uplink is as the same. If the delay is too high, the timeslots of the signal from a certain mobile station and that … Read more

How Voice Signal Processing in GSM

How Voice Signal Processing in GSM The radio channel is quite different from the wired channel. First, the radio channel has a distinct time-change characteristic. The radio channel is exposed to the air, so it is vulnerable to the  interferences in the air. The signal is influenced by various interferences, multi-path fading and shadow fading, … Read more

Hierarchical Structure of Um Interface in GSM

The first layer is the physical layer, which is marked as L1 and is the lowest layer. This layer provides the radio link needed in transmission of bit stream. It defines the radio access capability of the GSM system and provides the most fundamental radio channel (logical channel) for  the information transmission of higher-layer , … Read more

CDMA Soft Handoff Completion

If it is available, the second cell site returns the Walsh Code that will be assigned for the soft handoff. At this point, the original base station orders the soft handoff by using a handoff direction message on the traffic channel using one of the two types of signaling: dim and burst or blank and … Read more

CDMA Soft Handoff Initiation

Once a call is established, the mobile is constantly searching for other possible cell sites that might be good candidate for soft handoffs. Most of the search time is limited to looking for those PN offsets specified in the neighbor list found on the paging channel. The rake receiver’s searcher is the device that scans … Read more

CDMA Call Completion

After each access attempt, the mobile listens to the Paging Channel for a response from the base station. If the base station detects the access probe from the mobile, it responds with a channel assignment message. This message contains all of the information required to get the mobile onto a traffic channel. this messages includes … Read more
