- Something else to keep in mind is that cellular telephones in the
- US transmit on a frequency of approximately 900 MHz. At such a
- high frequency, multipath distortion and other signal quality
- vaggaries are pretty strong in the case of a moving transciever.
- The continuously variable delays and echo intensities effectively
- reduce the usable bandwidth.
-
- Fancy digital processing techniques can be applied, but the DSP
- window size is going to have to be small enough that rapidly
- changing transmission characteristics may be accomodated.
-
- Telebit did or does make a specific model called Cellblazer that
- attempts to deal with the issues above. A regular v.22 or v.32
- type modem is likely to have a quite difficult time.
