Abstract :
The Microcell Land Mobile Radio System concept is described in this paper. The system, while designed to meet the basic criteria of cost effective operation, provides a sophisticated level of service to land mobile radio users. Basically it employs low cost, low power base stations located at street intersections throughout the city and along roads and highways. With a total frequency spectrum of less than 8 MHz, the system can handle the voice and data communication traffic to and from all users within the coverage areas.
