Technical Details

The LG 150 is a trimode phone that operates on both Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) frequencies: cellular
services at 800 MHz and Personal Communication Services
(PCS) at 1.9 GHz.
The LG 150 also works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service
(AMPS). Since this phone operates on these three Wireless
networks the call fail rate is less than on a conventional
dual-mode or single-mode phone.
CDMA technology uses a feature called DSSS (Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum) that enables the phone to
keep communication from being crossed and to use one
frequency channel by multiple users in the same specific
area. This results in a 10-fold capacity increase when
compared with analog mode. In addition, features such as
soft / softer handoff, hard handoff, and dynamic RF power
control technologies combine to reduce call interruptions.
The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks consist of MSO
(Mobile Switching Office), BSC (Base Station Controller),
BTS (Base station Transmission System), and MS (Mobile
Station).
* TSB -74: Protocol between an IS-95A system and ANSI
J-STD-008
1xRTT system receives twice as many subscribers in the
wireless section as IS-95. Its battery life is twice as long
as IS-95. High-speed data transmission is also possible.
