So that they can both be used at the same time (i.e. full duplex) without interference.
GSM 900: Uplink frequency: 890 - 915 MHz GSM 1800 : Uplink frequency: 1710 - 1785 MHz GSM 1900: Uplink frequency: 1850 - 1910 MHz
How do you convert cellphone gsm frequency to another gsm frequency?"
Yes. Typically higher GSM means higher compression strength.
This depends on where you are, but 9 times out of 10 CDMA will provide better coverage than GSM, especially inside buildings that GSM can't penetrate. GSM= work with SIMcards ( ATT,T-mobile) some areas have better coverage than CDMA (Verizon, Sprint, Alltel ect), the Problem with GSM is that its bandwith is not as fast as CDMA since Data travels quicker on CDMA's devices due to less steps to follow : GSM= Data - SIMcard - device= response CDMA= Data - Device= Response (wider bandwith as well) so i would say that CDMA is better than GSM. Although it has been very widely reported that GSM carriers have faster speeds than CDMA carriers. Such as AT&T has far faster speeds than CDMA networks while covered.
GSM stands for : Global System for Mobile Communication GPRS stands for : General Packet Radio Service
Hi, For every GSM band there are Uplink and downlink frequencies. Example: GSM 900 TX: 880 MHz to 915 MHz is an uplink frequency range GSM 900 RX: 925 MHz to 960 MHz is a downlink frequency range Aloha, Maverick
It varies - according to which system is in use. The related link to Wikipedia lists the uplink & downlink frequencies.
GSM 900: Uplink frequency: 890 - 915 MHz GSM 1800 : Uplink frequency: 1710 - 1785 MHz GSM 1900: Uplink frequency: 1850 - 1910 MHz
This is actually the EGSM uplink band. It carries signals "up" from the mobile station to the base station. EGSM downlink is from 925MHz to 960MHz and carries signals from the base station "down" to the mobile station.
GSM-900 and GSM-1800 are used in most parts of the world: Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia and most of Asia. In South and Central America the following countries use the following: : :* Costa Rica - GSM-1800 :* Brazil - GSM-850, 900 and 1800 :* Guatemala - GSM-850, GSM-900 and 1900 :* El Salvador - GSM-850, GSM-900 and 1900 GSM-900 uses 890-915 MHz to send information from the mobile station to the base station (uplink) and 935-960 MHz for the other direction (downlink), providing 124 RF channels (channel numbers 1 to 124) spaced at 200 kHz. Duplex spacing of 45 MHz is used. Guard bands 100 kHz wide are placed at either end of the range of frequencies[1]. : In some countries the GSM-900 band has been extended to cover a larger frequency range. This 'extended GSM', E-GSM, uses 880-915 MHz (uplink) and 925-960 MHz (downlink), adding 50 channels (channel numbers 975 to 1023 and 0) to the original GSM-900 band. The GSM specifications also describe 'railways GSM', GSM-R, which uses 876-915 MHz (uplink) and 921-960 MHz (downlink). Channel numbers 955 to 1023. GSM-R provides additional channels and specialized services for use by railway personnel. : All these variants are included in the GSM-900 specification. GSM-1800 uses 1710-1785 MHz to send information from the mobile station to the base tranceiver station (uplink) and 1805-1880 MHz for the other direction (downlink), providing 374 channels (channel numbers 512 to 885). Duplex spacing is 95 MHz. : GSM-1800 is also called DCS (Digital Cellular Service) in the United Kingdom, while being called PCS in Hong Kong[2] (not to mix up with GSM-1900 which is commonly called PCS in the rest of the world.)
As the frequency increase its penetration power decreases.The signal travels a lesser distance.Hence for a perticular area more no of towers need to be erected in 1800/1900 than in 900MHZ for full coverage...Hence vodafone( 1800MHZ) has more towers per unit area than Idea Cellular ( 1800+900) ..... Band of 900 is from 890-915( uplink) 935-960Mhz( downlink).... Band of 1800 is from 1710-1785(uplink) and 1805-1880MHZ(Downlink).... Same property is followed here.....The uplink is lower ( MOBILE -BTS) than the downlink frequency (BTS-MOBILE)...so that this may help the uplink signal to travel futher without consuming much power...BTS due to its increased power ,has higher frequency to tavel the same distance....
1800mhz
198
2 and 6 quarters
174 no ........ the uplink is 890-915 & down link is 935-960.....MHz each channel having band width of 200KHz & using by 8 subsciber.... so 25MHz/200Khz ......=125...so there are 125 channels present in GSM900 but one channel is use as a guard so only 124 channel present in GSM900
GSM Band 890 to 915= 25 MHz One GSM Channel BW= 200 KHz Total GSM channels=25MHz/200KHz=125
There are two main types of Cellular phone com usage, that being CMDA and GSM. GSM operates, typically in a range of 850mhz, 900mhz, 1800 and 1900mhz. In parts of Europe it also uses 2100mhz. Older GMS specs can go as low as 380mhz for uplink and downlink and the channel will vary. CDMA operates at usually at 800mhz or 1900mhz. Some of the 4g WiMax signals can run as high as 2.7ghz. That however is used for data, not for voice mode. Again, different variations of this will run at other speeds but those are the most common ones.
