Chapter Thirty Five Objectives

• Explain how third-generation (3G) wireless will
  change the course of hand-held communications
• Describe the motivations to move toward 3G
• List and describe features and functions of 3G
  wireless
• Explain the pieces that make up the new wireless
  data network
• Describe the concept of the data transition to
  wireless

3G Wireless Standards

• Emerging standards on wireless carrier
• WAP (Wireless Application Protocol)
• WML (Wireless Markup Language)
• Compatibility issues with deployment
• GSM, TDMA, CDMA
• Demands on systems
• International, local, and roaming
• Various integration schemes

4
3G Wireless Competition

5
3G Wireless Evolution

• Wireless standards 1G to 3G

6
3G Wireless Data Transmission

• Better, faster, cheaper
• Migrate circuit-switched to packet

7
3G Wireless All Roads Lead to UMTS
8
3G Wireless All Roads Lead to CDMA

• HSCSD _at_ 19.6 to 64 Kbps in CDMA architecture
• cdmaOne networks
• IS-95 air interface (TIA 1993) and ANSI-41
  network protocol, soft handoffs
• One or more 1.25 MHz carriers, 800- and 1,900-MHz
  frequency bands
• Max advantages of CDMA digital wireless
• Incorporate efficiencies of IP
• IS-95B for hard-handoff in multicarrier
  environments

9
3G Wireless Phases of CDMA Data

• cdma2000 3X (IS-2000-A)
• Existing spectrum allocations
• Twice the voice capacity of cdmaOne
• Data rates to 144 Kbps
• Backward compatible with cdmaOne networks and
  terminals
• Enhances performance
• IS-2000-A/cdma2000 3X
• Uses 3 time 1.25 MHz or 3.75 MHz
• Multicarrier approach, or wide-band cdmaOne
• Greater capacity than 1X
• Data rates up to 2 Mbps
• Backward-compatible with 1X and cdmaOne
• Enhances performance even more
