Chapter 22 – CDMA Terminology and Acronyms
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. CDMA C1 AT Commands Reference Guide (PN S000478C) 130
PN Offset PN Offset stands for Pseudorandom Noise Offset. In a CDMA network the PN offset is a
variable time delay offset of a repeating random noise generator that is used to
distinguish individual sectors of a base station.
P-REV P-REV is the CDMA revision of the mobile or base station.
PRI PRI stands for Provisioning Information. Provisioning Information is your cellular network
carrier’s profile of information that must be programmed into your cellular modem in order
for it to operate on the carrier’s cellular network.
PRL PRL stands for Preferred Roaming List. The Roaming List is provided by the cellular
network carrier during the process of provisioning your SocketModem. The PRL is a list
of cellular service provider’s preferred roaming partners.
PSTN PSTN stands for Public Switching Telephone Network. It is the traditional telephone
network.
RF RF stands for Radio Frequency.
RSSI RSSI stands for Receive Signal Strength Indicator: This parameter represents the total
RF received signal power from the base station(s) the mobile sees.
R-UIM R-UIM stands for Removable User Identity SocketModem. The R-UIM is similar to a SIM
(Subscriber Identity SocketModem), but it is designed for networks other than GSM
(Global System for Mobile Telecommunications); i.e., networks such as CDMA.
The R-UIM card contains user information and data features on a removable smart card
about the size of a postage stamp. It is a dual-mode solution that can store both GSM
provisioning and CDMA provisioning on a single card. When used with a GSM handset,
the R-UIM operates like a GSM SIM.
SID SID stands for System ID. The SID is an identification number that represents geographic
locations of a common coverage area, usually a large city. Also see NID.
SIM SIM stands for Subscriber Identity SocketModem. A SIM card is a portable memory chip.
The SIM holds personal identity information, cell phone number, phone book, text
messages and other data.
SMS SMS stands for Short Messaging Service. it is a supplementary service that is capable of
sending and receiving short length text messages to/from the mobile.
SREJ Selective Reject. An optional feature of V.42 which enhances data throughput on noisy
connections. As data blocks are sent out, the remote side acknowledges only after an
agreed upon number of blocks are received (window size). If any block is received bad,
the sender is notified of the rejected bad block so it can be retransmitted.
TA/TE TA/TE stands for Terminal Application/Terminal Equipment. This is the end “device”
(combination of hardware and software) that communicates with a modem via a serial
link. In this context, it is the device (PDA/Computer) connected to the modem. Also see
DTE.
TON/NPI Type of Number/Numbering Plan Identification.
V24-V25 A data compression algorithm.
V42 A data comp
ression algorithm.
