We discuss different voice bearer designs for EGPRS radio access networks. We demonstrate how the operating mode can be chosen at each layer in the protocol stack to form appropriate voice bearers, and quantify the performance of these bearers. Different system control options are examined, including frequency reuse factor, MAC layer operating mode, frequency hopping, power control, and dynamic channel assignment. We find that a baseline EGPRS system using random channel assignment and no power control can support up to 27 Erlang/Site/MHz, which is significantly higher than the capacity of current 2/sup nd/ generation TDMA systems. In addition, the packet-switched nature of EGPRS makes it a very flexible system. We conclude that EGPRS offers an excellent evolutionary path for 2/sup nd/ generation TDMA systems.","PeriodicalId":301441,"journal":{"name":"11th IEEE International Symposium on Personal Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications.

The MAC layer in GPRS make use of slotted ALOHA protocol combined with a specific retransmission mechanism to establish the physical connection. The main object of the new mechanism is to avoid the mixture of retransmitted access request and the new ones. The primary profit is the decrease of the transmission attempts number needed to successfully transmit an access request. Thus, it decreases the delay of transmission of one access request and the access requests blocking percent.","PeriodicalId":301441,"journal":{"name":"11th IEEE International Symposium on Personal Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications.

This technique uses subspace decomposition for channel identification and exploits the orthogonality property between the noise subspace and the received user codes to obtain a channel identification algorithm. It is shown that in order to increase the number of simultaneous users, and to still have a good estimation of the channel, a modification of the MC-CDMA system has to be considered by using codes larger than the spreading gain. The performance of this algorithm is analyzed by deriving a theoretical expression of the mean square error (MSE) estimation. This expression is compared with numerical results of some computer simulations to illustrate the validity of the analysis. The paper also introduces a linear detector for this environment.","PeriodicalId":301441,"journal":{"name":"11th IEEE International Symposium on Personal Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications.

But it is in this context, further dominated by the pervasiveness of IP and the advent of reconfigurable radio, that we discuss the need to start thinking now about the fourth generation: the lapse between the initial studies, the assignment of spectrum, and the commercial deployment is always large, in the order of 10/sup +/ years. Contrary to some approaches, our perspective of 4G is not one of solely higher data rates, still with a public service focus. What is at stake is a different perspective of service, more than yet another technology revolution, and this constitutes a bigger challenge: the focus is now squarely on the user, not on the operators/service providers. Fourth generation will finally put the user in control, as they will be able to decide at every occasion (application), and for every environment (mobility, coverage), the right system, and even the right terminal; providing them personalized service irrespective of the underlying network, and in fact making the best use of the scarce spectrum by directing each data stream in a communication session to the most appropriate (i.e., efficient) network.","PeriodicalId":301441,"journal":{"name":"11th IEEE International Symposium on Personal Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications.

The detector uses a parallel set of matched filters with multi-valued code-weights as filter-coefficients. It selects the largest sample in a similar way to the conventional parallel acquisition detector, but it uses a much more precise decision scheme. Since the detector uses matched filters with multi-valued coefficients, it can take the synchronized average of each sample to decide whether the acquisition is established or not for shorter duration than the conventional detector. Computer simulation shows that the proposed detector outperforms conventional parallel acquisition detector because its decision mode is very accurate and its synchronized average scheme improves the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).","PeriodicalId":301441,"journal":{"name":"11th IEEE International Symposium on Personal Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications.
