What is GSM…?
• Global System for Mobile (GSM) is a second generation cellular standard developed to cater voice
services and data delivery using digital modulation Based on ETSI standards
• GSM is a digital system with an over-the-air bit rate of 270 kbps. The frequency range is 1,850 to 1,990
MHz (mobile station to base station)
• GSM utilizes the time or frequency division multiple access (TDMA / FDMA) concept
• GSM uses Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK)
• GSM specifications follow the stipulations for the bottom three layers (physical, data link, & network
layers) of the OSI mode
History of GSM
(Global Systems for
Mobile Communication)
Early 1980s there was
analog technologies:
- Advanced Mobile Phone Services(AMPS)in North
America.
- Total Access Communications System(TACS) in the
UK.
- Nordic Mobile Telephone(NMT) in Nordic
countries.
Each country developed its
own system, which caused
problems:
-System worked only within boundaries of
each country.
-Mobile equipment manufacturers markets were limited by the
operating system.

- Solution was GSM,which is digital technology and was developed by


CEPT(Conference of European Posts and Telecommunications)
GSM System
Architecture
• Base Station Subsystem (BSS)
– Its main components include:
➢ Base Transceiver Station (BTS)
➢ Base Station Controller (BSC)
Network Switching Subsystem(NSS)
• Its main components include:

➢ Mobile Switching Center (MSC)


➢ Home Location Register (HLR)
➢ Visitor Location Register (VLR)
➢ Authentication Center (AUC)
➢ Equipment Identity Register (EIR)
• Mobile Station (MS)
– Its main components include:
➢ Mobile Equipment (ME)
➢ Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
• Operation SubSystem (OSS)
– Its main components include:
➢ Operations and Maintenance Center (OMC)
➢ Network Management Center (NMC)
➢ Administration Center (ADC)
The Goals of GSM:-
-Improved spectrum efficiency.
-International roaming.
-Low-cost mobile sets and base stations.
-High-quality speech.
-Compatibility with ISDN and other telephone company services.
-Support for new services.
Advantages of GSM:-
• Capacity increases
• Reduced RF transmission power and longer battery life
• International roaming capability
• Better security against fraud (through terminal validation and user authentication)
• Encryption capability for information security and privacy
• Compatibility with ISDN, leading to wider range of service
Disadvantages of GSM
• The transmission can face interference because multiple
people share the same bandwidth.
• CDMA technology makes use of newer cellular networks such
as 3G.
• GSM can also disrupt electronic devices as it utilizes pulse
transmission technology. Because of this in hospitals and in
aircraft, we are advised to keep our cell phones in airplane
mode to avoid this electronic interference.
• GSM is a complex system
FUTURE OF GSM
2nd GenerationGSM
• 9.6 Kbps (data rate)
• 2.5 Generation (Future of GSM)
• HSCSD (High Speed ckt Switched data)
• Data rate: 76.8 Kbps (9.6 x 8 kbps)
• GPRS (General Packet Radio service)
• Data rate: 14.4-115.2 Kbps
• EDGE (Enhanced data rate for GSM Evolution)
• Data rate: 547.2 Kbps (max)
3 Generation
