First Tutorial
1. Prove that for a hexagonal geometry ,the co-channel reuse ratio is given by , where 2. With the help of received signal level plot, explain the difference between an improper & a proper hand off situation. 3. Give a point-by-point brief note on channel planning for wireless system 4. Define radio capacity of a cellular system. The total allocated spectrum for cellular system is B t and channel bandwidth Bc.If the co-channel reuse factor is Q for a cluster size N, what is the radio capacity for a path loss exponent n? 5. If a mobile unit is 10 Km from the base station & 15 Km away from the co-channel interference. Find the signal to interference ratio at the mobile unit.Assme path loss exponent factor 4 6. Explain the principle of frequency reuse in a cellular network. Shows that the frequency reuse factor is given by K/S where K is the average number of channels per cell and S is the total number of channel available. 7. Find out the expression for signal to co-cannel interference ratio(S/I) and show that a minimum cluster size of seven is required to meet an S/I requirements of at least 18 dB.Assume path loss exponent n = 4 8. Assume a cellular system wherein a car travels at 200km/?hr speed.Calculate how often(approximately)handoff would occurif the radius of the cell is 8 km. 9. Consider a cellular system which consists of 34 cell with the cell radius as 1.4 km. A total frequency bandwidth is capable of supporting 343 traffic channel.Find what geographical area in km can be covered and the number of channels avalible per cell(assume N=7 reuse cellular pattern) 10. What is prioritizing hand offs & where it is used? 11. Discuss umbrella cell approach and call dragging problem 12. Discuss channel allocation strategies 13. Discuss different ways to increase capacity of a cellular system.Compare them

14. Differentiate between Hard handoff and soft handoff
