The GSM burst, or transmission can fulfill a variety of functions. Some GSM bursts are used for carrying data while others are used for control information.
Bursts and Frames
The information contained in one time slot on the TDMA frame is called a burst. The bit rate over the air interface is 270.8 kbps. This gives a bit time of 3.692 ms (48/13 ms). The time interval of TS thus corresponds to 156.25 bits. The physical content of TS is called a burst.
There are five different types of bursts:
• Normal Burst (NB): used to carry information on traffic and control channels.
• Frequency Correction Burst (FB): used for frequency synchronization of the mobile.
• Synchronization Burst (SB): used for frame synchronization of the mobile.
• Access Burst (AB): used for random access and handover access.
• Dummy Burst: used when no other type of burst is to be sent.
