Smart Practices While Driving
Drive Safe, Call Smart
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and their
accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of
these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areasfor example,
hands free use only. Go to: www.motorola.com/callsmart (in English only) for
more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and dataalmost anywhere,
anytime, wherever wireless service is available and safe conditions allow. When
driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile
device while driving, remember the following tips:
Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features such as speed dial
and redial. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking
your attention off the road.
When available, use a hands free device. If possible,
add an additional layer of convenience to your mobile
device with one of the many Motorola Original hands free
accessories available today.
Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to access your mobile
device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at
an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary;
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet,
snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a to
do list or going through your address book takes attention away from your primary
responsibilitydriving safely.

OVERVIEW: iDEN Digital Modulation Technology
Chapter 1
OVERVIEW
To achieve ahigh spectrum efficiency, the i485 digital multi-service, data-capable portable uses a unique
modulation technology and sophisticated voice-compression algorithm. The voice of the person speaking
into the microphone is converted into a digital bit stream consisting of zeros (0) and ones (1). The stream
then is modulated into a radio-frequency (RF) signal, which is transmitted over the air to another unit. This
process is called digital modulation.
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is a modulation technique that transmits information by altering
the amplitude and phase of the radio frequency (RF) signal. Data is converted into complex symbols, which
alter the RF signal and transmit the information. When the signal is received, the amplitude and phase are
converted back into symbols and then into the original data.
There are three different QAM modes that are used for different applications: 64QAM, 16QAM, and 4QAM.
In voice applications, 16QAM is used, while in data applications, 64QAM, 16QAM, and 4QAM are used.
In 64QAM, 64 possible combinations of 6 bits are converted into a unique amplitude and phase. In 16QAM,
there are 16 possible combinations of 4 bits, while in 4QAM, there are 4 possible combinations of 2 bits.
The traditional 25 kHz channel used for two-way radios is split into four QAM signals (subcarriers) that are
transmitted simultaneously. This technique can transmit 64 Kbps in a single 25 kHz channel.
The iDEN system requires approximately 10 Kbps to transmit a compressed voice; therefore, 64 Kbps can
accommodate 6 voice channels or 3 voice channels in enhanced systems.
Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is one of the most common modulation techniques for satellite
communications. In QPSK, a digital data stream is taken two bits at a time to generate four possible phase
states of the transmitted carrier. A characteristic of this technique is its resistance to noise.
Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) is used to allocate portions of the RF signal by dividing time into 6
slots, one for each unit. Time allocation enables each unit to transmit its voice information without
interference from another units transmission.
Transmission from a unit or base station is accommodated in time-slot lengths of 15 milliseconds and frame
lengths of 90 milliseconds (see Figure 1-2).
Portable Unit
When turned on, scans for control station, then transmits one slot every six slots.
(GPS) system. Each burst is numbered; the number is referred to as the slot number. All bursts
occurring at a given time carry the same slot number.
Inbound transmission bursts (sent from the unit) are offset 19 milliseconds from the outbound burst;
the inbound burst begins 4 milliseconds after the end of the outbound burst (see Figure 1-2 on
page 1-3). This offset in time allows the unit to appear capable of transmitting and receiving at the
same time (it actually is switching rapidly back and forth between receiving and transmitting).
In current iDEN systems, outbound transmissions in the 800 MHz band range from 85 1870 MHz;
inbound transmissions are 45 MHz lower in frequency. For the 900 MHz band, outbound
transmissions range from 935-940 MHz; inbound transmissions are 39 MHz lower in frequency.
An iDEN channel is created by grouping bursts so that their slot numbers differ by a number referred
to as the repetition rate. The unit uses two repetition rates for interconnect voice calls: 6:1 and 3:1. A
single frequency can handle 6 calls using a 6:1 repetition rate with the 4.2 Kbps coder.
Dispatch calls always use this rate. However, the audio quality of the 3:1 repetition rate with the
8.0 Kbps coder is superior to the 6:1 rate with the 4.2 Kbps coder. Most service providers configure
the system and unit to allow only the 3:1 rate for interconnect calls.
Calls are set up on a primary control channel (PCCH) in response to a request from a unit or a regular
telephone connected to the Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN). The PCCH is established by
the base station equipment; typically, it is a 6:1 channel.
The outbound PCCH carries system information and pages to specific subscriber units and asks
them to respond if they are available for a call. Inbound PCCH transmissions carry responses to the
pages and requests by subscriber units to set up calls. Inbound transmissions on the primary
control channel only take 7.5 milliseconds and can be timed to occur in either half of a 15-
millisecond burst.
The dual band unit will power up in the 800 MHz band and will use these channels for control
channelsPrimary Control Channel (PCCH) and Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH). The 900
MHz mode will be used only during 3:1 interconnect calls. Every attempt will be made to assign
the unit to 900 MHz carriers during new 3:1 interconnect calls, handovers into a cell, and inter-cell
handovers. If no resources are available, or if available resources have insufficient channel quality
(in the case of a handover), then 800 MHz carriers will be evaluated.
Using the above techniques, the iDEN system can operate 6 voice channels simultaneously in
dispatch mode or 3 voice channels simultaneously in interconnect mode on a single RF carrier at
25 kHz bandwidth.
To determine a location on earth, a receiver must be built that can receive the simultaneous signals
from the satellites that are in view of the receiver and use that information to calculate the
location of the receiver. The receiver must pick up the signals from 4 satellites. Once the 4
satellites are located, the receiver measures the time it took for the satellite signals to arrive. From
this timing information, the distance between the receiver and each satellite can be calculated.
The four satellites ephemeris data provide the satellites X, Y, and Z positions. The range, R, is the
receiver measurement made by calculating the time it took for the signal to reach the receiver. The
users position, (Ux, Uy, Uz), and the clock bias, Cb, is then calculated.
To use the GPS, a receiver that can receive the spread-spectrum signals must be built. The
detected signals are then converted from RF signals into appropriate digital input formats. These
digital inputs are processed and converted into position information. Once the position coordinates
are determined, they are communicated to the handset microprocessor and displayed on the screen
or transmitted to the base station as required.
Bluetooth devices use GFSK modulation in the 2.4 to 2.48 GHz band. The channels have a
bandwidth of 1MHz. Frequency hopping is used to provide immunity to interference. The master
unit in a pico-net dictates the hopping sequence at a rate of 1600 hops per second. This translates to a
625 uS transmission. The maximum data rate through a Bluetooth device is 1Mb per second.
OVERVIEW: SIM Cards
The SIM card is also capable of storing phone numbers and names. Available SIM cards for this
unit are 64Kb, 128 Kb.
NOTE: If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times, your SIM card is blocked. See specific
users guide for more information about Unblocking the units PIN.
