operatorshavetoinstallnewradioaccessnetworks,i.e.,antennas,radionetwork

cdmaOne(IS-95)technology.However,theseoperatorsgoforcdma2000asthis

2.WirelessTransmission
2.1CheckalsotheWRCsthattrytoharmonizeglobalfrequencyplans.
2.2Below2MHzradiowavesfollowtheground(groundwavepropagation).Onefactor
forthisisdiffraction(wavesareboundtowardsobstaclesthathavesizesintheorder
ofthewavelength),anotherfactoristhecurrentinducedintheEarth’ssurface,which
slowsthewavefrontneartheearth,causingthewavefronttotiltdownward.Several
reasonsmakelowfrequenciesunusableincomputernetworks:
LowerfrequenciesalsomeanlowerdataratesaccordingtoNyquist/Shannonas
theavailablebandwidthisless.
Lowerfrequenciesalsorequirelargeantennasforefficienttransmissionand
reception.Thismightworkforsubmarines,notformobilephones.
Lowerfrequenciespenetratematerialmoreeasily.ThusSDMismoredifficult–
cellsizewouldincreasedramaticallyandfrequencyreusewouldbealmost
impossible.
2.3FrequenciesintheTHzrange,e.g.,infrared,visiblelight,areeasilyblockedby
obstaclesand,thus,donotinterferewithothertransmissions.Inthiscase,onlythe
standardsafetyregulationsapply(e.g.,laseremission).Mostradiosystemsstaywell
beyond100GHzasitisnotthatsimpletogeneratehigherfrequencies(inthelower
THzrange).
2.4TheclassicalEuropeanapproachwasbasedonstandardisationandregulation

2.6No.Loss-freetransmissionofanaloguesignalsisnotpossible.Attenuation,

2.10Severalmechanismsexisttomitigatenarrowbandinterference(whichmightbe

Directsequencespreadspectrum:

resultinginaspreadsignal.ThisisdoneinallCDMAsystems,butalsoinWLANs
using,e.g.,Barkersequencesforspreading(e.g.,802.11b).Thesignalisspread

receiverstoextracttheoriginalsignalfromthemixtureofspreadsignals.
2.11WorldwideregulationalwaysusesFDMforseparatingdifferentsystems(TV,WLAN,
radio,satellite,…).Thus,allradiosystemsmustmodulatethedigitalsignalontoa
carrierfrequencyusinganaloguemodulation.Themostprominentsystemisthe

allmusicandvoiceusefrequenciesbetween,e.g.,10Hzand22
kHz.However,manydifferentradiostationswanttotransmitatthesametime.
Therefore,alltheoriginalsignals(whichusethesamefrequencyrange)mustbe
modulatedontodifferentcarrierfrequencies.Othermotivationsfordigitalmodulation
areantennaandmediumcharacteristics.Importantcharacteristicsfordigital
modulationarespectralefficiency,powerefficiencyandrobustness.Typicalschemes
areASK,PSK,FSK.
