History – Wireless Communications I Many people in history used light for communication Heliographs, flags („semaphore“), ... China, Han-Dynasty (206 BC – 24 AC) signalling towers 150 BC smoke signals for communication; (Polybius, Greece) 1794, optical telegraph, Claude Chappe
Beginning of communications with electromagnetic waves 1831 Faraday demonstrates electromagnetic induction J. Maxwell (1831-79): theory of electromagnetic fields, wave equations (1864) 1876 telephone, Alexander Graham Bell H. Hertz (1857-94): demonstrates the wave character of electrical transmission through space (1888, in Karlsruhe)

History- Cellular Communication Networks Rapid semi-conductor and microprocessor development Bell Labs: Patent for cellular networks, 1972
Small coverage areas with variable cell radius Less transmitter power Frequency reuse, clustering Hand-over
Smaller and cheaper user equipment Higher network capacity High costs for infrastructure Typical networks:

Slide 12
History of GSM 1982: The main governing body of the European PTTs (CEPT) set up a committee known as Groupe Special Mobile (GSM) to define a digital mobil cellular system that could be introduced across Europe by the 1990s. PTT: Post, Telegraph and Telephone Administrations CEPT: European Conference of Postal Telecommunications Administrations The CEPT allocated the neccesary duplex radio frequency in the 900 MHz region.
1987: The main transmission techniques are chosen based on prototype evaluation 1990: The Phase 1 GSM900 specifications are frozen, DCS1800 adaptation begins 1992: GSM (renamed Global System for Mobile Communications) went operational in various European countries Today: Around 1 billion subscribers in more than 200 countries use GSM-based systems

Slide 13
The Creation of 3GPP Mid to end of the nineties the standardization of 3rd generation mobile communications systems took place in several regions around the world Common to all of them was the focus on CDMA based technologies
To ensure equipment compatibility and to increase working efficiency, initiatives were made to create a single forum for WCDMA standardization These initiatives resulted in the creation of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) in December 1998 Standardization organizations firstly involved were ARIB (Japan), ETSI (Europe), TTA (Korea), TTC (Japan) and T1P1 (USA) In 1999, also CWTS (China) joined 3GPP
The detailed technical work in 3GPP was started early 1999 with the aim of having a common specification ready by the end of 1999

Slide 14
What is 3GPP?
3GPP stands for 3rd Generation Partnership Project 3GPP is a collaboration agreement, established in December 1998, to ensure a worldwide acceptance of 3G W-CDMA/UMTS standards It is a partnership of 6 regional SDOs (standard development organization)
S.Korea Europe
USA
China Japan
These SDOs take 3GPP specifications and transpose them to regional (Europe, North America, Korea, Japan, China) standards ITU references the regional standards “IMT-2000”, “IMT-Advanced” see: www.3gpp.org 15

What is 3G or IMT-2000 The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) defined the key requirements for International Mobile Telecommunications 2000 services more commonly known as
3G requirements Improved system capacity, backward compatibility with 2G, multimedia support and high speed packet data meeting the following criteria 19
2 Mbps in fixed or in-building environments 384 kbps in pedestrian or urban environments 144 kbps in wide area mobile environments Variable data rates in large geographic area systems (satellite) Slide 19
IMT-Advanced and 4G Wireless Standards IMT-Advanced Requirements Based on an all-IP packet switched network Peak data rates of up to approximately 100 Mbit/s and up to approximately 1 Gbit/s for low mobility Scalable channel bandwidth, between 5 and 20 MHz, optionally up to 40 MHz Peak link spectral efficiency of 15 bit/s/Hz in the downlink, and 6.75 bit/s/Hz in the uplink System spectral efficiency of up to 3 bit/s/Hz/cell in the downlink and 2.25 bit/s/Hz/cell for indoor usage Smooth handovers across heterogeneous networks. Ability to offer high quality of service for next generation multimedia support.
Typically, IMT-Advanced and 4G are used synonymously IMT-Advanced Technologies are LTE-Advanced (specified by 3GPP) WiMax – 802.16m (specified by IEEE) WirelessMAN-Advanced, Mobile WiMax Release 2
