WIRELESS CELLULAR NETWORK:

A cellular network is telecommunication network. Usually it is maintained by any service provider which supports smartphones, which gives ability to provide any type of data such as internet browsing and e-mail.

CELLULAR NETWORK ORGANISATION:

In a cellular network a particular area is divided in to cells, each cell is served by its own antenna. Each cell is assigned a band of frequencies and is served by a base station, consisting of transmitter receiver and control unit. Adjacent cells are given different types of frequencies to avoid cross talking or interference.

Cells are designed in two shapes, square shaped cells and hexagon shaped cells.

SQUARE SHAPED CELLS:

Let “d” be the width of a cell, then a cell has four neighbors at a distance d and four neighbors at a distance 1.414d.

HEXAGON SHAPED CELLS:

Distance from center to vertex is equal to length of the side.

If R is the radius of the cell distance between centers of cells is √3 R.

FREQUENCY REUSE:

Frequency reuse is nothing but the use of same frequency in other near by c...
