2. WIRELESS NETWORK’S GENERATIONS
• Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) : 1G (FDMA)
• Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) : 2G (TDMA)
• Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) : 3G (CDMA)
• Long-term Evolution (LTE): 4G (OFDMA)
• LTE-A , etc. : 5G (NOMA, MIMO etc.)
4. FIRST GENERATION – 1G CELLULAR
• Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS)
• US trials 1978; deployed in Japan (’79) & US (’83)
• 800 MHz band – two 20 MHz bands
• Nordic Mobile Telephony (NMT)
• Sweden, Norway, Demark & Finland
• Launched 1981;
• 450 MHz; later at 900 MHz (NMT900)
• Total Access Communications System (TACS)
• British design; similar to AMPS; deployed 1985
5. SECOND GENERATION – 2G
• Digital systems to increase capacity
• Digital signal processing
• Utilized “Intelligent Network” concepts
• Added new services, Wide diversity of 2G systems
• IS-54/ IS-136 North American CDMA; (Hong Kong , Korea)
• PDC (Japan)
• iDEN (Motorola proprietary system, 800 MHz private mobile radio (PMR) spectrum,
• DECT (Digital European Cordless Telephony) and PHS (Personal Handiphone Service, Japan &
China)
wide bandwidth (32 Kbps channels), ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network)
• IS-95 CDMA (cdmaOne)
• GSM (Groupe Special Mobile, latter change to Global System for Mobile)
• Time division multiple access (TDMA)
• 3 calls per radio channel using repeating time slices
• Deployed 1993
• IS-54 / IS-136 standards in US
