UNIT-I
1. a) Write short notes on different channels which are responsible for communication
between the base station and mobiles. 5M
b) Explain briefly FDD and TDD. 5M
(OR)
2. a) Briefly explain about Cell Splitting. 5M
b) A spectrum of 30MHz is allocated to a wireless FDD cellular system which uses two
25kHz simplex channels to provide full duplex voice and control channels. Compute the
number of channels available per cell if a system uses four-cell reuse. If 1MHz of the
allocated spectrum is dedicated to control channels, determine an equitable distribution of
control channels and voice channels in each cell for the given system. 5M
UNIT-II
3. What are multiple access techniques? Explain the services and features of TDMA. 10M
(OR)
4. a) Briefly explain FDMA. 5M
b) If GSM uses a frame structure where each frame consists of eight time slots, and each
time slot contains 156.25bits, and data is transmitted at 270.833kbps in the channel.
Determine a) the time duration of a bit, b) the time duration of a slot, c) the time duration
of a frame, and d) how long must a user occupying a single time slot wait between two
successive transmissions.? 5M
