all wireless local loop systems used DECT technology. Details of wireless local
loop deployments of DECT WLL systems may be found elsewhere on this website - see Global DECT - and in the DECT Forum article on
this topic.

Dect based Wireless in Local loop
system
Throughout the world Wireless Local Loop (WLL) is emerging as an alternative
solution to the problems posed by conventional copper access network. WLL
provides quick, reliable and high quality communication services, which are
economically attractive to operators for a fast roll out of the network. COR-DECT HF 1800 WLL is a Wireless Local Loop solution from HFCL which
provides high quality voice, fax, data and Internet services.
Wall Set- IP (WS-IP) The WS-IP is similar to a wallset, with an added V-24
RS-232 serial port for Internet access. A personal computer can be directly
connected to this port without a modem, and Internet access is possible at 35 or
70 Kbps. In addition, simultaneous use of the telephone is possible, making the
WS-IP functionally equivalent to an ISDN terminal. The WS-IP is a fixed
subscriber terminal for the corDECT WLL system that supports both voice and
high-speed Internet.

The TAWA
WLL System
Based on DECT technology, TAWA has been designed for easy network integration,
with system interfaces to the network on E1 (2.048 Mbps) lines as per ITU-T G703
standard. In one configuration, the TAWA system acts like a switch with its
local loop. Alternatively the TAWA Wireless in Local Loop can be configured as
an Access Network connected to main exchange on ITU-T specified access protocol
V5.2.
TThe basic unit provides service to 1000 subscribers. Multiple TAWA systems can
be connected together using a transit switch. The system has been designed in
such a way that the initial investment for fixed part is very low and most of
the cost is incurred on the subscriber units, thus costs grow only as the
operator signs up subscribers.

DECTxs system
- private wallset, public and private systems based on the corDECT technology
developed by IIT Chennai.
In an urban deployment of DECTxs,
subscribers can be served using
microcellular architecture(cell size 300
to 1000 metres). For high density
business centres, multiple Base Stations
can be stacked together.
In the case of suburban areas, medium
sized cells (1km - 3.5kms) can be used.
As suburban areas are prone to the
growth of subscribers in either a
planned or an unplanned manner, such
requirements can be easily dealt with by
adding Base Stations on a as and when
required basis, as the system does not
require any frequency planning.
Remote Semi - Urban/Rural Coverage
For remote semi-urban and rural areas
where the existing demand does not call
for an independent BSC, Base Stations
can be located remotely using an El
interface links. Moreover, with the
extended range Wall Sets, the DECTxs
coverage may be extended to 8-10 kms
from the BS location.
Thin Route, Distributed Rural
Coverage
Where the operator is required to
provide between 25 to 100 lines for spot
coverage in remote clusters or
townships, DECTxs provides the most
cost-effective solution. In this case
Base Stations can be located at every
20-50 kms using an El drop insert
backbone. DECTxs optimises the immediate
exposure to the operator
Key features of DECTxs
Affordability, low up-front
investment
Very fast & easy deployment
Adaptability to very high & low
subscriber densities
Toll quality 32 kbps ADPCM voice
Enhanced privacy/Data, fax, payphone support
Modular & adjustable system
architecture
No frequency planning required
Futurability - ISDN, Video-conferencing
etc.
Spectrum sharing using DCS to allow a
multi-operator, multiple BSC environment
in the same 20 MHz band
