-GSM was orignally developed to serve as the cellular service for Europiean contries -Currently it is the worlds most popular standard for new cellular radio and personal communication equipment throughout the world Introduction to GSM Visit for more Learning Resources
GSM Features 1] SIM-Subscriber Identitity Module • Which stores information in the form of ID number,N/w and countries where subscriber is entitled to service,privacy keyes and other user specific information • Each subscriber have 4 digit personal ID no to activate GSM service 2]On The Air Privacy- • The privacy is made possible by encrypting the digital bit stream sent by GSM transmitter by using specific secret cryptographic key. • That is only known to cellular carrier • This key changes with time for each user • Every carrier and GSM eqipment manufacturermust sign the memorandum of understanding before developing GSM eqipment
Continue...... • The Mou is an international agreement which allows the sharing of cryptographic algorithm and other information between countries and carriers
GSM Services • GSM services follow ISDN Guidlines and are classified into 1]Teleservices 2]Data service 3]User service 1]Teleservice-Standard Mobile telephony 2]Data service-Computer -to-computer communication and packet switched traffic 3]User service-they are divided into three major categories 1]Telephone service 2]Bearer Service 3]Supplimentary ISDN services
Continue..... 1]Telephone services- • Including emergency calling,videotext and teletex 2]Bearer services- • Supports packet switched protocol and data rates from 300 bps to 9.6 kbps • The mode in which data can be transported could be transparent or non transparent mode
Continue 3]Supplimentary ISDN service - • Digital in nature • It includes call diversion,closed user groups and caller identification • They also include the short messege service which allow GSM subscriber and base stations to transmit alphanumeric pages of limited length • While simultaneously carring normal voice traffic • SMS also provides cell brodcasting which allows gsm BASE Station to repetitively transmit ASCII messages with as many as fifteen strings in concatenating fachion
Continue......... • GSM system architecture consist of three major interconnected subsystem that interact between themselves • BSS-Base station Subsystem • NSS-Network and switching subsystem • OSS-Operation Support subsystem For more detail contact us
