Overview
SIST EN 300 919 V6.1.1:2003 specifies the typical attributes and types of Mobile Stations (MS) used within the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) Phase 2+ and the DCS 1800 Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs). This standard, aligned with GSM 02.06 version 6.1.1 Release 1997, provides manufacturers, operators, and service providers with guidance on the configuration and categorization of mobile devices compatible with GSM networks. The document identifies the essential characteristics enabling mobile stations to operate efficiently in evolving digital cellular telecommunications environments.
Key Topics
- Mobile Station Attributes: The standard outlines core attributes of MS, including service access configuration, access capability, frequency bands, and multislot capabilities.
- Types of Mobile Stations: Definitions and requirements are given for handheld and vehicular-mounted MS, ensuring device suitability for portable and vehicle-integrated use cases.
- Frequency Bands Supported: Mobile stations can support multiple frequency bands, such as standard and extended GSM bands, railway-specific GSM bands (R-GSM), and DCS 1800.
- Rate and Capabilities: Full Rate (FR) and Half Rate (HR) speech services are specified, allowing flexibility in network resource utilization and device performance.
- Power Classes and Control: MS output power classes are clearly defined and linked to specific device types, supporting efficient network planning and power management.
- Configuration Flexibility: The standard encourages manufacturers to combine attributes to suit specific market or application needs, facilitating innovation in MS design.
- Multi-Band and Multi-Slot Support: Enables devices to switch between bands or handle multiple transmission slots, improving resource allocation and service continuity across various GSM network implementations.
Applications
SIST EN 300 919 V6.1.1:2003 is internationally relevant in the context of GSM mobile network deployment, device development, and compliance:
- Device Manufacturing: Ensures mobile devices are compatible with a range of GSM frequencies and services, supporting global interoperability.
- Network Planning: Operators use the detailed MS classifications to harmonize device requirements with network capabilities, including handover and channel assignment across different bands.
- Transport and Public Safety: Vehicular-mounted MS types cater to installations in trains, buses, trucks, and ships, enabling reliable mobile connectivity in transportation and logistics sectors.
- Consumer Electronics: Handheld MS requirements guide the development of personal mobile devices, ensuring performance in speech services and data communication.
- Regulatory Compliance: Conformance to this standard helps stakeholders meet European and international telecommunication requirements.
