Cellular Communications

Overview A cellular mobile communications system uses a large number of low-power wireless transmitters to create cells—the basic geographic service area of a wireless communications system. Variable power levels allow cells to be sized according to the subscriber density and demand within a particular region. As mobile users travel from cell to cell, their conversations are handed off between cells to maintain seamless service. Channels (frequencies) used in one cell can be reused in another cell some distance away. Cells can be added to accommodate growth, creating new cells in unserved areas or overlaying cells in existing areas. This tutorial discusses the basics of radio telephony systems, including both analog and digital systems. Upon completion of this tutorial, you should be able to describe the basic components of a cellular system and identify digital wireless technologies.
