Q. IS-95 was not compatible with existing AMPS frequency band.

  • (A) true
  • (B) false
  • (C) ---
  • (D) ---
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) false

Explanation: like is-136, is-95 system was designed to be compatible with the existing us analog cellular system (amps) frequency band. hence, mobile and base stations can be economically produced for dual mode operation.

Q. Which of the following is used by IS-95?

  • (A) dsss
  • (B) fhss
  • (C) thss
  • (D) hybrid
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) dsss

Explanation: is-95 uses a direct sequence spread spectrum cdma system. it allows each user within a cell to use the same radio channel, and users in adjacent cell also use the same radio channel.

Q. IS-95 uses same modulation technique for forward and reverse channel.

  • (A) true
  • (B) false
  • (C) ---
  • (D) ---
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) false

Explanation: is-95 uses different modulation and spreading technique for the forward and reverse links. on the forward link, the base station simultaneously transmits the user data for all mobiles in the cell by using different spreading sequence for each mobile.

Q. IS-95 is specified for reverse link operation in band.

  • (A) 869-894 mhz
  • (B) 849-894 mhz
  • (C) 849-869 mhz
  • (D) 824-849 mhz
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (D) 824-849 mhz

Explanation: is-95 is specified for reverse link operation in the 824-849 mhz band and 869-894 mhz for the forward link. the pcs version of is-95 has also been designed for international use in the 1800-2000 mhz bands.

Q. User data in IS-95 is spread to a channel chip rate of

  • (A) 1.2288 mchip/s
  • (B) 9.6 mchip/s
  • (C) 12.288 mchip/s
  • (D) 0.96 mchip/s
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) 1.2288 mchip/s

Explanation: user data is spread to a channel chip rate of 1.2288 mchip/s (a total spreading

Q. are used to resolve and combine multipath components.

  • (A) equalizer
  • (B) registers
  • (C) rake receiver
  • (D) frequency divider
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) rake receiver

Explanation: at both the base station and the subscriber, rake receivers are used to resolve and combine multipath components, thereby reducing the degree of fading. a rake receiver exploits the multipath time delays in a channel and combines the delayed replicas of transmitted signal.

Q. CT2 was the first generation of cordless telephones.

  • (A) true
  • (B) false
  • (C) ---
  • (D) ---
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) false

Explanation: ct2 was the second generation of cordless telephones introduced in great britain in 1989. it is used to provide telepoint services which allow a subscriber to use ct2 handsets at a public telepoint.

Q. CT2 is analog version of first generation cordless telephones.

  • (A) true
  • (B) false
  • (C) ---
  • (D) ---
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) false

Explanation: ct2 is a digital version of the first generation, analog, cordless telephones. when compared with analog cordless phones, ct2 offers good speech quality and is more resistant to interference.

Q. For a error free channel, conditional probability should be

  • (A) zero
  • (B) one
  • (C) equal to joint probability
  • (D) equal to individual probability
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) zero

Explanation: for a error free channel

Q. Average effective information is obtained by

  • (A) subtracting equivocation from entropy
  • (B) adding equivocation with entropy
  • (C) ratio of number of error bits by total number of bits
  • (D) none of the mentioned
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) subtracting equivocation from entropy

Explanation: according to shannon the average effective information is obtained by subtracting the equivocation from the entropy of the source.
