INTRODUCTION OF GPRS 10/4/2019 GPRS ( General Packet Radio Services) is packet oriented mobile data service Step between 2G and 3G cellular system More efficient use of network resources (data actually transmitted) It facilitates ‘always ON’ connection It is well suited for multi user scenario 6

LOGICAL CHANNELS IN GPRS 10/4/2019 Channels Group sub channels Direction PBCCH PBCCH(packet broadcast BS->MS broadcast control channel) Packet PCCCH PPCH(packet paging channel) BS->MS Data PRACH(packet random access) BS<-MS Channel PNCH(notification channel) BS->MS packet traffic ch. PDTCH( pcket data transfer ch) BS<->MS 9
Function Of GPRS 10/4/2019 Broadcast channels: Packet Broadcast Central Channel (PBCCH)-B roadcasts information - power control parameters, access methods and operational modes, network parameters, required to set up calls. Common control channels: Packet Paging Channel (PPCH)- used for control signalling prior to the call set up Packet Access Grant Channel (PAGCH)- telling the mobile which traffic channel has been assigned Packet Notification Channel (PNCH- used to alert mobiles that there is broadcast traffic intended for a large number 10
Function Of GPRS 10/4/2019 Dedicated control channels: Packet Associated Control Channel (PACCH): Used for control signalling while a call is in progress Packet Timing Advance Common Control Channel (PTCCH): u sed to adjust the timing advance, messages arrive at the correct time at the base station Dedicated traffic channel: Packet Data Traffic Channel (PDTCH): used to send the traffic and it is present in both the uplink and downlink directions, provide high speed data. 11
