The vehicular position location applied is a hybrid method based on pattern recognition and time of arrival (TOA) measurements. The pattern recognition is performed by hidden Markov models (HMMs) trained with prediction data to model the strength of the received signals for particular areas. The TOA gives first estimations of where the active mobile is located and which set of HMMs is to be used for the position estimation. To assess the accuracy of the proposed location method, calls have been performed from a car, driving through various streets and timing advance (TA) zones in a single GSM cell. The results are quite optimistic; the solution may fulfil the demand of many subscriber location applications, without requiring any modifications of existing standards, infrastructure or the mobiles.","PeriodicalId":355729,"journal":{"name":"Gateway to 21st Century Communications Village.

An obstacle in this context is the time-variability of the channel. To achieve a high throughput also over fading channels, adaptive methods for adjustment of, for example, the modulation alphabet, and the coding complexity, can be used. We investigate the effect of adaptive modulation, along with time-slot scheduling of IP-like traffic in a scenario involving several types of mobile hosts and one base station. We extend a study of the impact of adaptive modulation and scheduling on the bit error rate, to include models for packet length and packet inter-arrival, to find the queueing delay imposed by our proposed scheduling algorithm. Our scheduler keeps the bit error rate at attractively low, prespecified levels, well suited for forward error correction (FEC) codes. Moreover, the scheduler splits the bandwidth between different types of traffic in a desirable way, according to the traffic situation.","PeriodicalId":355729,"journal":{"name":"Gateway to 21st Century Communications Village.

The redundancy of the cyclic prefix, which is introduced as an absorber of the channel multipath, can also be employed for the estimation of the sampling-time offset. This method is essentially an autocorrelation, what has fundamental repercussions to its final precision. Another implementation issue was also taken into account-efficient usage of the spectrum by pulse shaping in the time domain.

An RRNS(n,k) code is a maximum-minimum distance block code, exhibiting identical distance properties to Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. Hence their error correction capability is given by t=(n-k)/2. Different bit mapping methods are proposed, which result in systematic and non-systematic RRNS encoders. We show that the classic Chase algorithm can be invoked, in order to contrive soft-decision detection for RRNS codes and to exploit the soft channel outputs, which provide the relative reliability of each of the received binary digits. We found that soft decision-based RRNS decoding is at least 1.5 dB better compared to hard decision-assisted RRNS decoding.","PeriodicalId":355729,"journal":{"name":"Gateway to 21st Century Communications Village.

We compare CDPD (Cellular Digital Packet Data), the US packet data overlay on analogue AMPS, with GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), the packet-switched service soon to be commercially available over GSM, for the purpose of carrying ITS on top of non-ITS traffic. With GPRS, ITS traffic is less affected by the non-ITS traffic (smaller delays in the presence of \"heavy\" users, and higher effective throughput) for the same traffic mixture.
