When it comes to trunking communication, you may feel strange, but in life, we can often see police uncles holding walkie-talkies for mutual communication. These walkie-talkies are basically handheld terminals of trunking system. Trunk communication, like public mobile communication, has experienced the transition from analog system to digital system, but the development of trunking communication is much slower than that of public mobile communication, and people’s understanding of trunking communication needs to be improved, so it is necessary to introduce trunking communication.oneOverview of trunking communication
Generally speaking, trunking communication is a kind of mobile communication system which is realized by base station relay. It is a communication system between public mobile communication and ordinary walkie-talkie. At present, it is mainly used for command and dispatch and emergency command of various special departments in China.
"Cluster" is derived fromTrunkingorTrunkedThese two English words are translated,TrunkThe original meaning of is "tree fork", but it can be translated as trunk or trunk line related to communication. But the relay andRelayRelated. Therefore, later, the older generation of mobile communication experts thought that translating it into relay or trunk line would be confused with real relay and trunk line, but it was determined to be a cluster in the sense that it set small groups into large groups, so cluster communication was so catchy.

Schematic diagram of trunking communication system
fromTrunkedAll available channels of the system can be shared by all users of the system, that is, any user in the system who wants to talk to another user in the system can communicate with each other by using idle channels under the control of the central console.
In addition to the functions of ordinary telephone, trunking communication system also has the following characteristics:
(oneThe hierarchical management function of users: the cluster system divides users into several groups, and each group has different priority levels. In each group, different priorities can be set for users. During the call, members of the group with high priority can directly seize the right to speak of members of the group with low priority.
(2) Call function: Cluster system provides group call, emergency call and broadcast call, etc.threeKind of "one call and one hundred answers" function. The so-called group call refers to the one-to-many intercom call initiated by the user, and members in the group can press.PTTKey to apply for the right to speak, during the call, only one member can speak at the same time, and other members can only listen; Emergency call is a special intercom mode in an emergency, which has the highest call priority and is used to inform the pre-designated users or groups in the shortest time and in the most convenient way. Broadcast call is a special group call, which is different from group call in that only the caller can speak, but the called party has no right to speak.
This function seems to be the same as the ordinary walkie-talkie, but the biggest difference between them is that although the ordinary walkie-talkie can also achieve the function of "answering every call", there is no priority between each user of the ordinary walkie-talkie and it cannot be grouped. Once the "other" users are tuned to the same frequency, they can hear the call and initiate the call, thus causing interference or leakage.
(three) Shake and revive function: When a cluster terminal is accidentally lost or other special circumstances occur, in order to avoid the leakage of important information, managers can use the remote killing function to kill in the air at this time, so that it can not be turned on; For recoverable remote shooting, the system can also use the resurrection function to make the terminal work normally.
(four) Shared frequency: A small number of dedicated frequencies originally allocated to various departments are managed centrally for all families to use together, thus improving the effective utilization rate of frequency resources. Just like cars and roads, when there is only one lane, cars can only travel in sequence in this lane, and cars may travel slowly. When there are more than two lanes, cars can "see the needle", which is "sharing", which can greatly
(five) Shared facilities and shared coverage area: Because of the frequency sharing, it is possible to build facilities such as control centers and base stations separately built by each family to form a larger coverage area, and each family can set up a virtual console to control and contact their own users, thus greatly saving network investment.
(six) improve service: if the network is jointly built, the channel sharing can adjust the surplus and deficiency, and the total number of users supported by the total channel when the network is jointly built is much larger than the total number of users supported by the total channels dispersed to each network when the network is decentralized, thus improving the service quality; Centralized network construction can also strengthen management and maintenance, thus improving service level and enhancing system functions.

Application of trunking communication system
2The development of cluster system in China
Our country is1989In 2000, the simulation cluster system was introduced,1990Put into use in, mainly based onMPT1327Signaling standard is developed, and has been applied and popularized to some extent. although2001The Radio Administration of the Ministry of Information Industry issued "About"800MHzNotice on matters related to the use and management of trunking frequency (No.[2001]518No.), which stipulates that all analog trunking communication systems are in2005yeartwelvemoon31sunIt had to stop running before, but some traditional analog private networks are still running today.
With the development of digital communication technology, trunking communication system has also begun to develop to the second generation of digital technology, the most important feature is the adoption of.TDMA(Time division multiple access)andCDMA(code division multiple access)Communication mode. ITU (ITU) also recommended some digital trunking communication systems, such asiDEN(Integrated Dispatching Enhanced Network),TETRA(Europe-wide trunking radio)andFHMA (frequency hopping multiple access), etc., and four technical systems are recommended in China’s standards, namelyTETRA 、iDEN、GT800andGoTa.
(one) TETRAsystem
TETRA[2](Terrestrial Trunked Radio) is the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI,European Telecommunications Standards Institute) digital trunking standards, a lot of reference.GSM(Global System for Mobile Communications) concept, adoptTDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) system, carrier bandwidth25kHz, pointsfourTime slots, the modulation mode is π/4DQPSK, support cellular continuous coverage. The main working frequency band is350MHz 、400MHzand800MHz.TetraThe standard gives more consideration to command and dispatch, defines different network working modes, and specifies voice, circuit data, short data messages, packet data and other services as well as a variety of additional services.TETRAThe dispatching function of the system is relatively perfect, so it is very suitable for private networks, especially for military, armed police, public security and law enforcement units. It is one of the most widely used technical standards in China, such as Zhengtong Network in Beijing and Special Network for Asian Games in Guangzhou.
