Page 16: Overview
CHAPTER 1 OVERVIEW To achieve a high spectrum efficiency, the i930 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).

Page 19: Calling Area Coverage
OVERVIEW: iDEN Voice Compression Technology (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).
Page 20: Global Positioning System (Gps) Section
OVERVIEW: Global Positioning System (GPS) Section Global Positioning System (GPS) Section The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has built a 24-satellite constellation for the purpose of pinpointing locations anywhere on the planet. The satellites circle the earth every 12 hours, transmitting radio signals at a fixed frequency of 1575.42 MHz.
Page 21: Sim Cards
OVERVIEW: SIM Cards The radio telephones themselves are capable of operation on any channel in the system. This enables them to operate in any cell. Due to the low power requirements for communications between radio telephones in a particular cell and the cell site, operating channels may be repeated in cells which are outside the coverage area of each other.
