  • the system information is scheduled by the RRC (Radio Resource Control) protocol layer in the UMTS base station (also called NodeB).
  • the current MAC-b protocol unit has no significant function in the UMTS base station in the current UMTS communication network.
  • a base station in a cellular mobile radio communication network based on GSM or UMTS therefore uses broadcasting to transmit mobile radio cell information which is relevant to the communication system and to mobile radio cells to all subscriber appliances situated in the mobile radio cell.

  • a mobile radio channel is a time-variant and frequency-variant selective channel.
  • the time variance is caused by the movement of the mobile receiver.
  • the frequency selectivity is caused by the multipath propagation.
  • the properties of the mobile radio channel result in the signal from the transmitter reaching the mobile receiver not only on the direct path but also on various paths with different propagation times and damping influences.
  • the received signal is thus made up of a multiplicity of components, with their amplitudes, propagation times and phases having a random response.
  • the received signal is therefore a distorted and disturbed version of the transmitted signal.
  • a basic task of the receiver is thus to reverse the disturbances introduced into the transmitted signal by the mobile radio channel again and to reconstruct the transmitted signals correctly.
  • multiple access methods are often used. It is a task of a multiple access method to regulate the subscribers' access to the mobile radio channel, so that the subscribers do not disturb one another. In doing this, the properties of the mobile radio channel are also taken into account.
  • each subscriber has the full frequency band, but just a defined transmission period, also called Transmission Time Interval (TTI), available for transmission.
  • TTI Transmission Time Interval
  • each subscriber has the full time available, but just a defined (narrow) frequency bandwidth from the total bandwidth, for transmitting the data. In each of these frequency bands, only one subscriber may ever be active.
  • each subscriber has the full time and the full frequency band available for transmission.
  • each subscriber is allocated a binary code pattern, the binary code patterns being independent of one another and being used to encode or spread the useful signal on a subscriber-specific basis.
  • OFDMA is a suitable method which is also used for minimizing negative channel influences caused by the frequency selectivity, which means that the receiver complexity can also be significantly reduced.
  • the OFDMA method therefore involves splitting the data stream to be transmitted over a multiplicity of subcarriers and transmitting it in parallel at an appropriately reduced data rate.
  • the individual subcarrier frequency interval ⁇ f is stipulated such that the influence of the frequency selectivity is kept as low as possible.
  • the effects of the time variance increase as the bandwidth becomes smaller, which means that channel estimation is usually carried out as before.
  • OFDMA orthogonal frequency division multiple access
  • a subscriber can be provided with the full time and a defined number of subcarriers for transmission.
  • OFDMA can be combined with other multiple access methods, for example, OFDMA combined with TDMA (OFDMA/TDMA) or OFDMA combined with a frequency hopping method.
  • FIG. 8 a, FIG. 8 b and FIG. 8 c illustrate the principle of TDMA (cf. FIG. 8 a ), OFDMA (cf. FIG. 8 b ) and OFDMA/TDMA (cf. FIG. 8 c ).

  • a frequency axis F 803 , 813 , 823 respectively shows the frequency range, possibly split into frequency subranges ⁇ f 814 , 824 .
  • FIG. 8 a shows that in the TDMA method the respective full frequency range is available to a subscriber for transmission in each time frame 802 (shaded area in FIG. 8 a ).
  • FIG. 8 b shows that the full time range is available to a subscriber for transmission for a respective frequency subrange ⁇ f 814 (shown by way of example in FIG. 8 b by means of the shaded areas).
  • a subscriber is allocated a respective discrete time frame 822 , paired with a discrete frequency subrange ⁇ f 824 , as symbolized by way of example in FIG. 8 c using the shaded areas.
  • FIG. 9 uses a graph 900 to show the principle of OFDMA in combination with a frequency hopping method.
  • the graph 900 again shows a time axis 901 , the time being split into transmission time intervals of equal size, also called time frames TTI 902 .
  • a second axis of the graph is the frequency axis F 903 , the total frequency being split into frequency subranges ⁇ f 904 which are likewise of equal size, for example.
  • the data are transmitted in the frequency band in interleaved form, i.e. after each time frame 902 the subcarrier is changed on the basis of a defined set of rules in order to reduce frequency-selective disturbances in the mobile radio channel further.
  • a frequency hopping method is therefore a type of CDMA method in principle.
  • FIG. 9 uses numbers in the respective time slots and “frequency slots” to show the allocated time ranges for transmission.
