High-Speed Downlink Shared Channel in Unlicensed Frequency Bands / HS-DSCH i olicensierade frekvensbandZetterberg, Kristina January 2004 (has links)
<p>In the standardized air interface for third generation mobile communication systems, WCDMA release 5, a concept called High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) is introduced. HSDPA enables faster transmissions from base stations to mobile users by using a shared, high-capacity channel called the High-Speed Downlink Shared Channel (HS-DSCH) that is designed for best effort services. The HS-DSCH is developed for usage in the frequency band licensed for third generation communication systems. As the use of licensed frequency bands is costly it may be interesting to make use of the unlicensed frequency bands at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with higher interference and stricter regulations. Using HS- DSCH in unlicensed frequency bands would lead to smaller costs and a new kind of usage of the HS-DSCH. </p><p>In order to transmit in unlicensed frequency bands, some requirements set up by the public authorities must be followed. This means that the maximum transmit power used by the HS-DSCH must be decreased and, on the 5 GHz frequency band, that features to avoid disturbing radar systems have to be implemented. The HS- DSCH has a bandwidth of 5 MHz. To use the available frequency spectra more efficiently, multiple carriers could be used. </p><p>Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are the most common way to transfer data in unlicensed frequency bands today. Assessments and simulations of WLAN and the HS-DSCH in unlicensed frequency bands show that WLAN can provide higher bitrates than the HS-DSCH for low loads. HS-DSCH can however provide a larger coverage per base station, and is more bandwidth effective than WLAN. Using a larger bandwidth is necessary for HS-DSCH to compete with WLAN, which uses a bandwidth approximately four times as large as the HS-DSCH bandwidth. The usage of the HS-DSCH in unlicensed frequency bands also has the advantage that the services provided by the third generation communication systems can be accessed easily.</p>

Providing Quality of Service for Streaming Applications in Evolved 3G Networks / Tillgodose tjänstekvalité för strömmande media i vidareutvecklade 3G-systemEriksson, Jonas January 2004 (has links)
<p>The third generation, 3G, mobile telephone systems are designed for multimedia communication and will offer us similar services as in our stationary computers. This will involve large traffic loads, especially in the downlink direction, i.e. from base station to terminal. To improve the downlink capacity for packet data services a new concept is included in evolved 3G networks. The concept is called High Speed Data Packet Access, HSDPA, and provides peak bit rates of 14 Mbps. HSDPA uses a so-called best effort channel, i.e. it is developed for services that do not require guaranteed bit rates. The channel is divided in time between the users and a scheduling algorithm is used to allocate the channel among them. </p><p>Streaming is a common technology for video transmission over the Internet and with 3G it is supposed to become popular also in our mobiles. Streaming generates lots of data traffic in the downlink direction and it would thus be satisfying to make use of the high bit rates HSDPA provides. The problem is that streaming requires reasonable stable bit rates, which is not guaranteed using HSDPA. The aim of this study is to modify the scheduling algorithms to prioritise streaming over web users and provide streaming Quality of Service, QoS. QoS is the ability to guarantee certain transmission characteristics. </p><p>The results of the study show that it is hard to improve the streaming capacity by modifications of the scheduling. Of course, a consequence is that the web user throughput is decreased and to avoid this, new users have to be rejected by the admission control.The solution is to prioritise the streaming users both in the scheduling algorithm and in the admission control, i.e. when the system is nearly full new web users are rejected. By doing so the results are significantly improved.</p>

3G-masters miljöpåverkan : En studie av länsstyrelsens hantering av samråd enligt 12 kap. 6§ miljöbalken / Environmental impact from 3G masts : A study of how county administrative boards, Länsstyrelsen, handles consultation according to 12 kap. 6§ miljöbalkenHändel, Sofia January 2003 (has links)
<p>När rumsligt omvälvande projekt skall genomföras är det ofta konsekvenserna för naturmiljö, kulturmiljö, estetiska miljöaspekter som ger upphov till diskussioner. Uppförandet av telemaster till mobiltelefonsystemet 3G är ett infrastrukturprojekt som kommer att vara visuellt påtagliga på många platser i landskapet. I Sverige uppförs två stycken parallella mastsystem och detta har givit upphov till diskussioner kring projektets påverkan på vår omgivning. Uppsatsen studerar hur miljöpåverkan från ett stort infrastrukturprojekt, uppförandet av telemaster för 3G-systemet, behandlats av länsstyrelsen i samrådsärenden enligt 12 kapitlet 6§ miljöbalken, samt diskuterar kring hur handläggare på länsstyrelsen hanterar och upplever dessa ärenden. </p><p>Studien visar att handläggare på de undersökta länsstyrelserna har begränsat mandat att minska antalet master genom samlokalisering. Önskemålen om att teleoperatörerna ska dela på själva masten är svåra att genomföra eftersom operatörerna inte har samverkansavtal. Laglig rätt att förplikta samlokalisering fanns inte under den studerade perioden. Det är vanskligt att säga om den sammantagna inverkan som masterna sägs ha kunnat begränsas på denna nivå. Det som identifierats som ett problem av aktörer som Boverket och PTS, d.v.s. antalet master, fastlades redan i ett tidigare skede. </p><p>Samråden är inriktade på att undvika ur naturmiljösynpunkt olämpliga mastplaceringar. Dock utgör den fastslagna utbyggnaden av nätet och kravet på geografisk täckning att det kan uttryckas som att det för länsstyrelsen är inte en fråga om i fall masterna ska uppföras, utan om var. Lokaliseringen av masterna blir ett samspel mellan var operatörerna föredrar att placera master samt var det är lämpligt ut naturmiljösynpunkt. Den på nationell nivå fastlagda geografiska täckningskravet gör att bedömningen av masters påverkan på vissa landskap, där intrycket i landskapsbilden blir stort, upplevs svår av de intervjuade handläggarna. Bedömning av masters påverkan på just landskapsbilden kan upplevas som subjektiv. </p><p>Det stora antalet anmälningar om samråd har resulterat i få förelägganden och förbud. MKB har endast använts i ett litet antal fall. Samråden synes mycket inriktade på att hitta alternativa lösningar innan förbud utfärdas. Landskapsbilden är den enskilda motivering till förbud som förekommer flest gånger.</p>

Coexistence of Real Time and Best Effort Services in Enhanced Uplink WCDMA / Samexistens av Realtidstjänster och Förbättrade Datatjänster i WCDMA UpplänkAxell, Erik January 2005 (has links)
<p>The increasing use of data services and the importance of IP basedservices in third generation mobile communication system (3G), requires the transmission from the cell phone to the base station, i.e. uplink, to manage high speed data rates. In the air interface for 3G in Europe, WCDMA, a concept for enhancing the transmission from the cell phone to the base station, called Enhanced Uplink, is being standardized. The overall goal is to provide high speed data access for the uplink. One of the requirements is that the enhanced uplink channels must be able to coexist with already existing WCDMA releases. For example, the enhanced uplink must not impact seriously on real time services, such as speech, carried on current WCDMA channels.</p><p>The purpose of this work is to study how the quality, coverage and capacity of real time services carried on previous WCDMA releases is affected when introducing the Enhanced Uplink in a WCDMA network. The main focus of the study is thus to demonstrate the trade-off between voice and best effort performances.</p><p>Theoretical assessments and simulations show that the Enhanced Uplink has many advantages over previous WCDMA releases. For example the Enhanced Uplink yields a larger system throughput for all voice loads. The noise rise, i.e. the ratio of total received power to the background noise power is being considered as the resource. It is shown that user traffic carried on the Enhanced Uplink is able to operate under a higher noise rise level as well as to get a higher throughput per noise rise. The resource is hence more efficiently utilized.</p>

Implementation and simulation of HSDPA functionality with ns-2 / Implementation och simulering av HSDPA-funtionalitet för ns-2Zhao, Haichuan Jianqiu Wu January 2005 (has links)
<p>Enhanced packet-data access is a trend in third generation mobile communication system. WCDMA Release 5 introduces HSDPA (High Speed Packet Data Access) with a brand new downlink transport channel HS-DSCH (High Speed Downlink Shared Channel) into 3GPP specification to provide greater capacity. HS-DSCH supports some new feature such as fast link adaptation, fast scheduling and fast HARQ (hybrid ARQ) so as to increase system performance. It efficiently improves power utilization, shortens retransmission time and increases system throughput. </p><p>The focus for this thesis is implementation and simulation of HSDPA functionality with ns-2. There is some previous work has been done, such as EURANE. EURANE is an end to end extension which adds several HSDPA modules to ns-2. This paper addresses the analysis of HSDPA by simulating on HS-DSCH based on EURANE, and extends the power consumption on HS-DSCH.</p>

Security in Unlicensed Mobile AccessEriksson, Martin January 2005 (has links)
<p>Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) provides transparent access to 2G and 3G networks for Mobile Stations over the unlicensed radio interface. Unlicensed radio tehnologies such as Bluetooth or WLAN technology connects the Mobile Station to the fixed IP network of the home or office and delivers high bandwith to the Mobile Station.</p><p>The purpose of this report is to examine if subscribers can feel as secure using UMA as they do when using any of the alternetive mobile technologies that UMA supports. The security evaluation is performed by first investigating the current security level of GSM, GPRS and UMTS and then compares them to the security mechanisms of UMA.</p><p>This evaluation noticed two distinct flaws in UMA that could compromise security. The conclusion is that these flaws do not have a major inpact and UMA does provide a general higher level of security than the 2G and 3G counterparts.</p>

Data Transmission over Speech Coded Voice Channels / Datatransmission över Talkodade KanalerTyrberg, Andreas January 2006 (has links)
<p>The voice channel in mobile communication systems have high priority and are almost always available. By using the voice channel also for data transmissions it is possible to get the same availability as for voice calls. But due to speech codecs in the voice channel, regular modems can not be used and special techniques are needed to transmit data.</p><p>This thesis presents methods to transmit data over the voice channel in a GSM, UMTS or TETRA network. The focus has been on robust data transmission rather than high data bit rates. Approaches are introduced which improve the reliability for transmissions even for systems with low rate speech codecs and channels with some distortion.</p><p>The results of the thesis are suggestions of symbol patterns and ways to create and adapt symbols for specific application and channel conditions to achieve the desired goal for the application.</p>

CMOS design enhancement techniques for RF receivers. Analysis, design and implementation of RF receivers with component enhancement and component reduction for improved sensitivity and reduced cost, using CMOS technology.Logan, Nandi January 2010 (has links)
Silicon CMOS Technology is now the preferred process for low power wireless
communication devices, although currently much noisier and slower than comparable
processes such as SiGe Bipolar and GaAs technologies. However, due to ever-reducing
gate sizes and correspondingly higher speeds, higher Ft CMOS processes are
increasingly competitive, especially in low power wireless systems such as Bluetooth,
Wireless USB, Wimax, Zigbee and W-CDMA transceivers. With the current 32 nm gate
sized devices, speeds of 100 GHz and beyond are well within the horizon for CMOS
technology, but at a reduced operational voltage, even with thicker gate oxides as
compensation.
This thesis investigates newer techniques, both from a systems point of view and at a
circuit level, to implement an efficient transceiver design that will produce a more
sensitive receiver, overcoming the noise disadvantage of using CMOS Silicon. As a
starting point, the overall components and available SoC were investigated, together
with their architecture.
Two novel techniques were developed during this investigation. The first was a high
compression point LNA design giving a lower overall systems noise figure for the
receiver. The second was an innovative means of matching circuits with low Q
components, which enabled the use of smaller inductors and reduced the attenuation
loss of the components, the resulting smaller circuit die size leading to smaller and
lower cost commercial radio equipment. Both these techniques have had patents filed by the
University.
Finally, the overall design was laid out for fabrication, taking into account package
constraints and bond-wire effects and other parasitic EMC effects.

Radio Network Planning and Resource Optimization : Mathematical Models and Algorithms for UMTS, WLANs, and Ad Hoc NetworksSiomina, Iana January 2007 (has links)
The tremendous popularity of wireless technologies during the last decade has created a considerable expansion of wireless networks both in size and use. This fact, together with a great variety of mobile devices and numerous di®erent services that are becoming increasingly resourcedemanding, have attracted the attention of many researchers into the area of radio resource planning and optimization. Due to network complexity, these tasks require intelligent, automated approaches that are able to deal with many factors in order to enable design of high capacity networks with a high service quality at the lowest possible cost. This is a perfect application of optimization theory. In this thesis, mathematical optimization is considered as the main approach to designing and improving the performance of wireless networks such as Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) and ad hoc networks. Due to different underlying access technologies, the optimization goals, design parameters and system limitations vary by network type. Therefore, the goals of the presented work are to identify a relevant optimization problem for each type of network, to model the problem and to apply the optimization approach in order to facilitate wireless network planning and improve radio resource utilization. The optimization problems addressed in this thesis, in the context of UMTS networks, focus on minimizing the total amount of pilot power which, from the modeling point of view, is not just an amount of power consumed by a certain type of control signal, but also an indicator of the interference level in the network and means of controlling cell coverage. The presented models and algorithms enable °exible coverage planning and optimization of pilot power and radio base station antenna confiration in large networks. For WLANs, in the First part of the study, the access point placement and the channel assignment problems are considered jointly to maximize net user throughput and minimize co- and adjacent channel interference and contention. The second part of the study addresses the contention issue and involves, among the other decisions, optimization of access point transmit power. Due to the dynamic and infrastructureless nature of ad hoc networks, static resource planning is less suitable for this type of network. Two algorithmic frameworks which enable dynamic topology control for power-efficient broadcasting in stationary and mobile networks are presented. In both frameworks, the performance of the presented algorithms is studied by simulations.

EnergyBox : A Trace-driven Tool for Data Transmission Energy Consumption StudiesVergara Alonso, Ekhiotz Jon, Nadjm-Tehrani, Simin January 2013 (has links)
Although evolving mobile technologies bring millions of users closer to the vision of information anywhere-anytime, device battery depletions hamper the quality of experience to a great extent. We argue that the design of energy-efficient solutions starts by energy-awareness and propose EnergyBox, a tool that provides accurate and repeatable energy consumption studies for 3G and WiFi transmissions at the user end. We recognize that the energy consumption of data transmission is highly dependable on the traffic pattern, and provide the means for trace-based iterative packet-driven simulation to derive the operation states of wireless interfaces. The strength of EnergyBox is that it allows to modularly set the 3G network parameters specified at operator level, the adaptive power save mode mechanism for a WiFi device, and the different power levels of the operation states for different handheld devices. EnergyBox enables efficient energy consumption studies using real data, which complements the device-dependent laborious physical power measurements. Using real application transmission traces, we have validated EnergyBox showing an accuracy range of 94-99% for 3G and 93-99% for WiFi compared to the real measured energy consumption by a 3G modem and a smartphone with WiFi.
