The term GSM-900 is used for any GSM system which operates in any 900 MHz band.
P-GSM - 900
P-GSM-900 band is the primary band for GSM-900 Frequency band for primary GSM-900 (P-GSM-900) : 2 x
25 MHz
890 – 915 MHz for MS to BTS (uplink)
935 – 960 MHz for BTS to MS (downlink)
E-GSM - 900
In some countries, GSM-900 is allowed to operate in part or in all of the following extension band. E-GSM-
900 (Extended GSM-900) band includes the primary band (P-GSM-900) and the extension band :
880 – 890 MHz for MS to BTS (uplink)
925 – 935 MHz for BTS to MS (downlink)
R-GSM-900
R-GSM-900 (Railway GSM-900) band includes the primary band (P-GSM-900) and the following extension
band:
876 – 890 MHz for MS to BTS (uplink)
921 – 935 MHz for BTS to MS (downlink)

COST EFFECTIVENESS
Cellular Radio involves dividing a large service area into
regions called “cells.”
Each cell has the equipment to switch, transmit and receive
calls.
Cells - Reduce the need of High powered transmission
Cells - Conventionally regarded as being hexagonal, but in
reality they are irregularly shaped.
Cell shape is determined by the nature of the surrounding
area e.g. Hills , tall building etc.

Capacity -
Number of calls that can be handled in a certain area
Spectrum utilization:
The multiple uses of the same channels in cells with in
geographical separation ensure that the radio spectrum is used
efficiently.
Nationwide compatibility:
The mobile users should be able to use their equipment also in
other areas that are served by different cellular systems.
Adaptability to traffic density:
Traffic density differs from one point to another in a
cellular coverage area. the capability to cope
with different traffic must be designed as
inherent feature of the cellular system.

Cells are defined as individual service areas, each of which has an
assigned group of discrete channels assigned to it from the available
spectrum.

The same group of channels can be used in different cells that
are far enough away from each other so that their frequencies do
not interfere
No similarly colored cells are adjacent, and therefore there are no
adjacent cells using the same channel.

where the Quality of Service (QoS) is affected, Cells
can be divided in to smaller sizes.

Frequency Hopping
Frequency Hopping
Multipath Fading results in variations in signal strength which is known
as Rayleigh Fading.
Rayleigh Fading phenomenon is dependent on path difference and
hence frequency of reception.
reception
A fast moving mobile may not experience severe effect of this fading
since the path difference is continuously changing.
A slow moving mobile ( or a halted mobile ) may experience severe
deterioration in quality.
But, if the frequency of reception is changed when this problem occurs,
could solve it.
The fading phenomenon is fast and almost continuous,
continuous this means the
frequency change should also be continuous.
This process of continuously changing frequency is known as Frequency
Hopping.
Hopping
Frequency hopping is the technique of improving the S/N in a link by
adding frequency diversity.

Multiple Access Technique
Multiple Access – Achieved by dividing the available radio frequency
spectrum, so that multiple users can be given access at the same
time.
