Cordless

This document discusses cordless systems and their operating environments including residential, office, and public settings. It describes considerations for cordless standards such as modest range, low-power designs, and frequency flexibility. The document explains Time Division Duplexing (TDD) and how it divides data transmission between two directions. It provides details on Simple TDD and TDMA TDD approaches as well as the DECT frame format and logical control channels.

Cordless Systems

Cordless System Operating


Environments
 Residential – a single base station can
provide in-house voice and data support
 Office
 A single base station can support a small office
 Multiple base stations in a cellular
configuration can support a larger office
 Telepoint – a base station set up in a public
place, such as an airport
Design Considerations for
Cordless Standards
 Modest range of handset from base station,
so low-power designs are used
 Inexpensive handset and base station,
dictating simple technical approaches
 Frequency flexibility is limited, so the
system needs to be able to seek a low-
interference channel whenever used
Time Division Duplex (TDD)
 TDD also known as time-compression
multiplexing (TCM)
 Data transmitted in one direction at a time,
with transmission between the two
directions
 Simple TDD
 TDMA TDD
Simple TDD
 Bit stream is divided into equal segments, compressed
in time to a higher transmission rate, and transmitted
in bursts
 Effective bits transmitted per second:
R = B/2(Tp+Tb+Tg)
 R = effective data rate
 B = size of block in bits
 Tp = propagation delay
 Tb = burst transmission time
 Tg = guard time
Simple TDD
 Actual data rate, A:
A = B /Tb
 Combined with previous equation:

A=2R 1
 T p T g
Tb 
 The actual data rate is more than double the
effective data rate seen by the two sides
TDMA TDD
 Wireless TDD typically used with TDMA
 A number of users receive forward channel
signals in turn and then transmit reverse
channel signals in turn, all on same carrier
frequency
 Advantages of TDMA/TDD:
 Improved ability to cope with fast fading
 Improved capacity allocation
DECT Frame Format
 Preamble (16 bits) – alert receiver
 Sync (16 bits) – enable receiver to
synchronize on beginning of time slot
 A field (64 bits) – used for network control
 B field (320 bits) – contains user data
 X field (4 bits) – parity check bits
 Guard (60 bits) – guard time, Tg
A Field Logical Control
Channels
 Q channel – used to broadcast general system
information from base station to all terminals
 P channel – provides paging from the base station
to terminals
 M channel – used by terminal to exchange
medium access control messages with base station
 N channel – provides handshaking protocol
 C channel – provides call management for active
connections
