Abstract

Objectives - The cellular wireless communications emerged as an answer to a need for a fully mobile telephone service. The service objectives are mobility, full duplex voice, ubiquity — service everywhere and all the time, and capacity - multiple independent sessions within the same area. Grade of service (GoS) is measured by the availability of call access and uninterrupted session continuation, and quality of service (QoS) — by the quality of the voice, where comparison is made to the voice quality of the line telephone.
