1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction:
1.1.1 Aim:
Currently, almost all network operators worldwide are upgrading their GSM networks in order
to provide high speed mobile data to their subscribers. The ever increasing growth rate of data
applications such as e-mail and the internet is confronting mobile network operators worldwide
with the challenge to upgrade their networks to high bandwidth capable bit pipes in order to
provide for all kinds of mobile data applications. !igh speed mobile data will combine two of
today"s most rapidly growing technologies, mobility and the internet.
G#$S %General #acket $adio Service&, '(G' %'nhanced (ata rates for Global 'volution& and
!SCS( %!igh Speed Circuit Switched (ata& have been designed primarily as upgrades to the well
known and widely used GSM standard. )n the *+s and early *++s, when the GSM system was
designed and standardied, data transmission capabilities were of minor importance compared to
voice.
/esides, at that time, the ma0imum transmission speed of +.1 kbit2s that GSM offered,
appeared to be sufficient and was comparable with analog wireline modems. Starting with
!SCS(, the first high speed mobile data upgrade to be standardied, higher rates of transmission
can be provided to mobile customers. '(G' has a transmission speed of up to 34 kbit2s and
G#$S is able to support up to *1 kbit2s.
1.1.2 Previous System:
)n the past days we use to have the internet hub to surf because those days mobile with the
internet facility was not available, but now we got the internet on our finger tips through high
speed mobile networking.
1.1.3 Proposed Systems:
Mobile networking have been proposed for a wide range of applications through 5G#$S6 which
is gaining speed day by day in the internet services on mobile, which helps helps the common man
to get any information within seconds of his time making the people to feel fle0ible and reliable of
its function.

The ever increasing growth rate of data applications such as e-mail and the internet is
confronting mobile network operators worldwide with the challenge to upgrade their networks to
high bandwidth capable bit pipes in order to provide for all kinds of mobile data applications.
!igh speed mobile data will combine two of today"s most rapidly growing technologies, mobility
and the internet.
;et us compare the situation on the mobile side with the progress that has been made on
the fi0ed end. Bhile even today"s analog modems operate at F1 kbit2s and, indeed, )S(9
transmits up to *= kbit2s, mobile users are still limited to +.1 kbit2s in of GSM. The rollout of
I(S; improves the situation even further on the wireline side, thereby broadening the gap
between wireline and wireless.

Bith regard to mobile data, not @ust the typical pattern of use by today6s businessmen on
the move shall be addressedJ Today6s GSM-networks are also used by many consumers for the
largest growing mobile data application of the late *++6s, SMS. Therefore, the new mobile data
technologies need to address both consumer groups, the private customer and the business user.
)n the first instance, most network operators intend to attract their high-end business subscribers,
their long term goal being, however, to bring high speed mobile data to the mass market.

2.5 Pro$%ems O i'- Speed #o$i%e D"t":
!igh speed mobile data will certainly improve the e0isting mobile networks greatly.
G#$S and '(G', in particular, will write a new chapter in mobile communications history.
!owever, there are various problems which need addressing in order to make high speed mobile
data a commercial success.
irstly, who shall provide all the necessary )#-addresses when many people are
permanently onlineD 'ven today, a shortage of )# addresses is becoming evident. The only
solution to this issue is an upgrade to )# version 1 but the Auestion is when )# version 1 become a
reality will.
:nother problem is the short span between G#$S, '(G' and EMTS. 'ven before thedemand for G#$S has been proven, the technical evolution has already found successors to
G#$S, namely '(G' and EMTS. #erhaps the market will not be ready for EMTS when it
becomes available in ==.
Most importantly, however, there is one fundamental AuestionJ )s there really a market for
high speed mobile data or will G#$S, '(G' and EMTS suffer like the mobile satellite
networksD
The latter is the issue which really needs to be addressed. 8n the one hand, the content
providers need to e0amine this issue and on the other hand, the network and service operators
need to be willing to accept changes to the value chain so that content providers can also prosper
from the mobile communications market.

!SCS( or !igh Speed Circuit Switched (ata was the first upgrade to be standardied by
'TS) to bring high speed data to GSM. The standardiation process started as early as *++4 and
therefore, !SCS( was the first high speed data e0tension to be ready for implementation in
*+++.
The basic idea behind !SCS( is to bundle more than one timeslot on the air-interface for
a single connection. :pplying this simple idea, !SCS( is able to reach throughput rates of up to
F.1 kbit2s. !owever, the real-life implementations of !SCS( barely e0ceed 3.4 kbit2s.

*. Symmetric 2 :symmetricJ Symmetric connections provide identical throughput rates in the
uplink and downlink directions. :symmetric connections have a greater throughput rate in the

!SCS( is a circuit-switched technology. Therefore, one of its ma@or advantages is that the
e0isting core network, mainly the MSC, is able to handle !SCS( traffic. :s opposed to G#$S,
!SCS( neither reAuires a hardware upgrade within the network, nor does it introduce new

Therefore, !SCS( is a rather simple upgrade of the standard GSM, particularly in
comparison with G#$S and '(G'. Bhen !SCS( is added to an e0isting network, it is mainly
the interworking functions within the MSC and, of course, the mobile stations that are affected.

switched transaction where resources are being accessed permanently, regardless of whether or
not transmission is actually talking place. Therefore, packet-switching saves resources, especially
in the case of bursty transactions.

change physical laws. )n other words, the channel coding schemes that provide for higher data
transmission rates per timeslot sacrifice data protection for speed. Therefore, the new coding

which is -#SK in addition to, e.g. GMSK in the case of GSM. :s illustrated in the figure below,

GMSK has a lot of advantages, the most important of which being that it does not contain any
amplitude modulation. !owever, its inherent low speed is the one big disadvantage. )n GMSK,
only * bit can be transmitted per symbol as opposed to e.g. -#SK where 3 bits are transmitted
per symbol. :s highlighted in the animation, this makes -#SK three times faster than GMSK.

Tripling the data transmission rate on the :ir-)nterface by applying -#SK seems like an
obvious step forward. !owever, it has some inherent disadvantages, in particular, through the
unpredictable environment of radio transmission. Bith increasing interference, the clearly
distinguishable symbols of -#SK, as shown in the animation, become more and more diffused.
:t a certain stage, the receiver is no longer able to distinguish between different symbols.
8bviously, -#SK with different symbols is more vulnerable to such interference than e.g.
GMSK.

)n a radio environment, the greater the distance between the sender and the receiver, the
greater the probability of interference. The distance between sender and receiver makes up the
effective cell sie in a cellular mobile network. :pplying '(G' with -#SK-modulation to such
a network implies shrinking the effective cell sie. This is due to the fact that -#SK is more
vulnerable to interference which in turn increases with distance. :s illustrated in the figure
below, the price of the impressive transmission rate of '(G' is a smaller cell radius. )n an
e0isting mobile network, this will limit the feasibility of the implementation of '(G' to urban
