Mobile station

A mobile station (MS) is a portable data and/or voice communications statio which acts as a normal telephone whilst being able to move over a wide area. A mobile station is typically made up of an antenna, amplifier, receiver, transmitter, and similar hardware and software for sending and receiving signals and converting between RF waves and audio signals. Examples of mobile stations are cellular devices such as global system for mobile communications (GSM) devices, frequency division multiple access (FDMA) devices, time division multiple access (TDMA) devices, code division multiple access (CDMA) devices, wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) devices, and analog mobile phone system (AMPS) devices. Mobile stations have found many uses in today's world. When paired with a single base station located at a user's own premises, they are called "cordless telephones." When they interact with various, geographically distributed cellular base stations, they are called "cellular telephones" or simply "cell phones." In a mobile telephone communication system, one or several base stations transmit information, such as voice information, or data, or both to a mobile station. Each base station supports one or several sectors. In mobile wireless data communications systems at least one of the data communications stations is a mobile station. Typically, mobile wireless data communications systems are often comprised of one or more base stations and one or more mobile stations. A mobile station may provide both a second-generation mobile communication service and a third-generation mobile communication service. Multimode terminals may provide a multimedia service as well as a voice service and a data service.
