Study Notes
The Air-Interface of GSM
- The Air-interface is the central interface of every mobile system and the only one to which a customer is typically exposed.
- The physical characteristics of the Air-interface are crucial for the quality and success of a new mobile standard.
- In some mobile systems, such as IS-95 (the standard for CDMA), only the Air-interface was specified initially.
- Despite differences in GSM, the Air-interface has received special attention due to its importance in efficient frequency usage, particularly in the context of limited available frequency spectrum for new services.
