Cellular phone channel construction
===============================================================================
Here is a method of determining which frequencies are used in a cellular
system, and which ones are in what cells. If the system uses OMNICELLS, as
most do, you can readily find all the channels in a cell if you know just one
of them, using tables constructed with the instructions below.
Cellular frequencies are assigned by channel number, and for all channel
numbers, in both wireline and non-wireline systems, the formula is:
Transmit Frequency = (channel number x .030 MHz) + 870 MHz
Receive Frequency = (channel number x .030 Mhz) + 825 Mhz
"Band A" (one of the two blocks) uses channels 1 - 333. To construct a
table showing frequency by cells, use channel 333 as the top left corner of a
table. The next entry to the right of channel 333 is 332, the next is 331,
etc., down to channel 313. Enter channel 312 underneath 333, 311 under 332,
etc. Each channel across the top row is the first channel in each CELL of the
system; each channel DOWN from the column from the the first channel is the
next frequency assigned to that cell. You may have noted that each channel
down is 21 channels lower in number. Usually the data channel used is the
highest numbered channel in a cell.
"Band B" uses channels from 334 to 666. Construct your table in a similar
way, with channel 334 in the upper left corner, 335 the next entry to the
right. The data channel should be the lowest numbered channel in each cell
this time.

This represents how a cellular system might be laid out. Cells A and B
never share a common border. Neither do B and C, A and G, etc. Cells that
are next to each other are never assigned adjacent frequencies. They always
differ by at least 60 kiloHertz. To track a mobile phone as it changes cells,
let's put the mobile in a B cell. When the mobile switches frequencies, you
know that he could only go to an D, E, F or G cell because A and C have
adjacent frequencies. The two tables below will help you determine which
channel cells can go next to each other. You can contact your local cellular
phone company and see if they have any maps of the cells available. This is
not a sure thing, but it couldn't hurt to try.
Cells that can go next to each other:
Cell Compatible cells
A C, D, E, F
B D, E, F, G
C E, F, G, A
D F, G, A, B
E G, A, B, C
F A, B, C, D
G B, C, D, E
Here is a frequency/cell layout chart. The cell frequencies are used by
the cell site towers, and the mobile frequencies are the input frequencies
used by the cars.
