This project is based on the study of the wireless communication and its maintance in Tata Steel. In the MED dept. of Tata Steel I have studied the maintenance and fault diagnostics methodology in Motorola wireless set. Wireless Communication is the transfer of information over a distance without the use of electrical conductors or wires. The distance involved may be short (a few meters as in television remote control) or long(thousands or millions of kilometers for radio communications). When the context is clear, the term is often shortened to “wireless”. Wireless communications is generally considered to be a branch of “telecommunications”.

ABOUT PROJECT…….

The term wireless is commonly used in the telecommunications industry to refer to telecommunications system(eg. Radio transmitters and receivers, remote controls, computer networks, network terminals etc.) which use some form of energy(eg. Radio frequency(RF), infrared light, laser light, visible light, acoustic energy etc. to transfer information without the use of wires information is transferred in this manner over both short and long distances. Application may involve point-to-point communication, point-to-multipoint communication, broadcasting, cellular networks and other wireless networks.

HISTORY HIGHLIGHTED….

19

20

21

The modern iron and steel industry in India owes its origin to the grand vision and perseverance of Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata. The Tata Iron and Steel Company Limited (Tata Steel) was registered in Bombay on 26th August 1907. The construction of the steel plant was then taken up in earnest with the first stake being driven in February 1908. R.G. Wells, an American with steel plant construction experience took over as the General Manager in 1909. Success came when the first blast furnace was blown-in on 2nd December 1911, and the first ingot rolled on 16th February 1912.

The company was originally constructed for a capacity of 160,000 tones of pig iron, 100,000 tones of ingot steel, 70,000 tones of rails, beams and shapes, and 20,000 tones of bars, hoops and rods

THE BEGINNING…..

22

The plant essentially consisted of a battery of 180 non-recovery coke ovens and 30 by-product ovens with a sulphuric acid plant, two blast furnaces (each of 350 tones per day capacity), one 300 tones hot metal mixer, four open hearth furnaces of 50 tones capacity each, one steam engine driven 40- inch reversing blooming mill, one 28-inch reversing combination rail and structural mill with re-heating furnaces, and one 16- inch and two 10-inch rolling mills. Besides, the steel works had a power house, auxiliary facilities and a well equipped laboratory. The cost of the plant as erected came to around Rs.23 million.

23

24

As a result of innovations and technological up gradation, Tata Steel, has become a well-run ultra modern plant - one of the best in the world. Fundamental changes in some metallurgical parameters have brought about this remarkable transformation. Necessity became the mother of invention and numerous innovations invoked improvement.The metallurgical changes introduced were essentially centered around:• Reducing alumina level

in sinter from 4.4 to 2.5 %.

• Improving in coke quality

TATA STEEL TODAY

25

• Making changes in the fluxes used in sinter making essentially to decrease the alkali input.

• Adopting the optimum LD vessel configuration and blowing conditions to accommodate the high slag volume required to deal with high silicon and phosphorus in Indian hot metal.

• Increasing the yield during LD steelmaking.

• All these factors have made Tata Steel internationally cost competitive. In terms of hot metal costs, Tata Steel is amongst the lowest in the world and has a clear advantage over other major integrated producers. The cost of conversion from hot metal to a finished product such as hot rolled coils where Tata Steel has not been very competitive so far would be taken care of in the near future as investments already made to achieve the results foreseen.

• High ash in coke, poor room temperature and high temperature strengths of coke, high alumina in the iron oxide feed, high silicon in hot metal, low yields during steelmaking, low yield of finished products, high energy consumption, high manpower, etc. have been the weaknesses not only of Tata Steel but of the Indian Steel industry.

26

Tata Steel is all set to establish itself as the supplier of choice by delighting all its customers with its products and services. The Organization is envisaged to become the most cost competitive Steel plant to serve the community and the nation. Where Tata Steel would venture, others will follow. The 21st century will certainly see a new Tata Steel - an integrated Steel plant in India with truly world class facilities along with a will to win amongst a committed and streamlined workforce.

THE NEW ERA..

27

Tata Steel India was awarded the Deming Application Prize 2008 for Excellence in Total Quality Management. It is the 1st integrated steel company in the world, outside Japan to get this award.

Tata Steel Works has been conferred the prestigious social accountability (SA) 8000 certification by SAI, USA.

It has been awarded Asia’s Most Admired Knowledge Enterprise award 5 times in 2003,2004,200,2007,2008.

Best governed company award 2006 for setting high standards in governance practices.

World Steel Dynamics has ranked Tata Steel as the world’s best steel makers (for 2 consecutive years) in its annual listing in February 2006.

Tata Steel has been conferred the Prime Minister of India ‘s Trophy for the Best Integrated Steel plant 5 times.

INTRODUCTION TO WIRELESS COMMUNICATION & IT’S PRINCIPLE

41

INTRODUCTION Wireless communication is the

transfer of information over a distance without the use of electrical conductors or "wires". The distances involved may be short (a few meters as in television remote control) or long (thousands or millions of kilometers for radio communications). Wireless communication is generally considered to be a branch of telecommunications. Past decade has seen a surge of research activities in the field of wireless communication. Emerging from this research thrust are new points of view on how to communicate effectively over wireless channels. The goal of this course is to study in a unified way the fundamentals as well as the new research developments. The concepts are illustrated using examples from several modern wireless systems (GSM, IS-95, CDMA 2000 1x EV-DO, Flarion's Flash OFDM, ArrayComm systems.) It encompasses various types of fixed, mobile, and portable two- way radios, cellular telephones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and wireless networking. Other examples of wireless technology include GPS units, garage door openers and or garage doors, wireless computer mice, keyboards and headsets, satellite television and cordless telephones. Wireless operations permits services, such as long-range communications, that are impossible or impractical to implement with the use of wires.

42

The term is commonly used in the telecommunications industry to refer to telecommunications systems (e.g. radio transmitters and receivers, remote controls, computer networks, network terminals, etc.) which use some form of energy (e.g. radio frequency (RF), infrared light, laser light, visible light, acoustic energy, etc.) to transfer information without the use of wires. Information is transferred in this manner over both short and long distances.

In 1895, Guglielmo Marconi opened the way for modern wireless communications by transmitting the three-dot Morse code for the letter ‘S’ over a distance of three kilometers using electromagnetic waves. From this beginning, wireless communications has developed into a key element of modern society. From satellite transmission, radio and television broadcasting to the now ubiquitous mobile telephone, wireless communications has revolutionized the way societies function.

Wireless communications and the economic goods and services that utilize it have some special characteristics that have motivated specialized studies. First, wireless communications relies on a scarce resource – namely, radio spectrum. Second, use of spectrum for wireless communications required the development of key complementary technologies; especially those that allowed higher frequencies to be utilised more efficiently. Finally, because of its special nature, the efficient use of spectrum required the coordinated development of standards. Those standards in turn played a critical role in the diffusion of technologies that relied on spectrum use.

43

PRINCIPLE OF COMMUNICATION Wireless communications begin with a message that is converted into an electronic signal by a device called a transmitter. There are two types of transmitters: analog and digital. An analog transmitter sends electronic signals as modulated radio waves. The analog transmitter modulates the radio wave to carry the electronic signal and then sends the modified radio signal through space. A digital transmitter encodes electronic signals by converting messages into a binary code, the series of zeros and ones that are the basis of all computer programming. The encoded electronic signal is then sent as a radio wave. Devices known as receivers decode or demodulate the radio waves and reproduce the original message over a speaker. Wireless communications systems involve either one-way transmissions, in which a person merely receives notice of a message, or two-way transmissions, such as a telephone conversation between two people.

44

An example of a device that only receives one-way transmission is a pager, which is a high- frequency radio receiver. When a person dials a pager number, the pager company sends a radio signal to the desired pager. The encoded signal triggers the pager’s circuitry and notifies the customer carrying the pager of the incoming call with a tone or a vibration, and often the telephone number of the caller. Advanced pagers can display short messages from the caller, or provide news updates or sports scores. Two-way transmissions require both a transmitter and a receiver for sending and receiving signals. A device that functions as both a transmitter and a receiver is called a transceiver. Cellular radio telephones and two-way radios use transceivers, so that back-and-forth communication between two people can be maintained. Early transceivers were very large, but they have decreased in size due to advances in technology. Fixed-base transceivers, such as those used at police stations, can fit on a desktop, and hand-held transceivers have shrunk in size as well. Several current models of handheld transceivers weigh less than 0.2 kg (0.5 lb). Some pagers also use transceivers to provide limited response options. These brief return-communication opportunities allow paging users to acknowledge reception of a page and to respond using a limited menu of options.

45

In electronics and telecommunications a transmitter or radio transmitter is an electronic device which, with the aid of an antenna, produces radio waves. The transmitter itself generates a radio frequency alternating current, which is applied to the antenna. When excited by this alternating current, the antenna radiates radio waves. In addition to their use in broadcasting, transmitters are necessary component parts of many electronic devices that communicate by radio, such as cell phones, wireless computer networks,Bluetooth enabled devices, garage door openers, two-way radios in aircraft, ships, and spacecraft, radar sets, and navigational beacons.

TRANSMITTER

46

RECEIVER

An RF Receiver module receives the modulated RF signal, and demodulates it. Super-regenerative modules are usually low cost and low power designs using a series of amplifiers to extract modulated data from a carrier wave. Super-regenerative modules are generally imprecise as their frequency of operation varies considerably with temperature and power supply voltage.Superheterodyne receivers offer increased accuracy and stability over a large voltage and temperature range. This stability comes from a fixed crystal design which in turn leads to a comparatively more expensive product

47

TYPES OF COMMUNICATION The different types of wireless communication technologies include:

1.Infrared (IR) wireless communication- IR wireless communication communicates data or information in devices or systems through infrared (IR) radiation. Infrared is electromagnetic energy at a wavelength that is longer than that of red light.

Working: IR wireless is used for short and medium-range communications and security control. For IR communication to work, the systems mostly operate in line-of-sight mode which means that there must be no obstruction between the transmitter (source) and receiver (destination). Infrared is used in television remote controls and security systems. In the electromagnetic spectrum, infrared radiation lies between microwaves and visible light, therefore, they can be used as a source of communication.

Working of Infrared Wireless Communication:A photo LED transmitter and a photodiode receptor are required for successful IR communication.The LED transmitter transmits the infrared signal in the form of non-visible light, which is captured and retrieved as information by the photo receptor. In this way, the information between the source and the target is transferred.

48

2.Broadcast Radio communication-

Basically an audio broadcasting service, radio broadcasts sound through the air as radio waves. It uses a transmitter to transmit radio waves to a receiving antenna. To broadcast common programming, stations are linked to the radio networks.The broadcast occurs either in syndication or simulcast (simultaneous broadcast) or both. Radio broadcasting can also be done via cable FM, the internet and satellites. A radio broadcast sends data over long distances (across countries) at up to 2 megabits per second (AM/FM Radio). What is Broadcast Radio Working:Radio waves are electromagnetic signals transmitted by an antenna. Radio waves have different frequency segments, and you will be able to pick up an audio signal by tuning into a specific frequency segment.

In computer networking and telecommunications, a broadcast communication network is a communication network which uses broadcasting for communication between its nodes. They take messages from a single sender and transmit to all endpoints on the network.

49

Let us take an example of a radio station. When the Radio Jockey says “You are listening to 93.7 FM”, what he actually means is that signals are being broadcasted at a frequency of 97.3 megahertz, which in turn means that the transmitter at the station is oscillating at a frequency of 93,700,000 cycles per second.

When you wish to listen to 93.7 FM, all you have to do is tune the radio to accept that particular frequency and you will receive flawless audio reception.

50

3.Microwave Radio communication- Microwave transmission refers to the technology of transmitting information or energy by the use of radio waves whose wavelengths are conveniently measured in small numbers of centimeter; these are called microwaves. This part of the radio spectrum ranges across frequencies of roughly 1.0 gigahertz (GHz) to 30 GHz. These correspond to wavelengths from 30 centimeters down to 1.0 cm.

C band horn-reflector antennas on the roof of a telephone switching center in Seattle, Washington, part of the U.S. AT&T Long Lines microwave relay network

Microwave radio relay is a technology for transmitting digital and analog signals, such as long-distance telephone calls, television programs, and computer data, between two locations on a line of sight radio path. In microwave radio relay, microwaves are transmitted between the two locations with directional antennas, forming a fixed radio connection between the two points. The requirement of a line of sight limits the distance between stations to 30 or 40 miles.

Microwave transmission involves the transfer of voice and data through the atmosphere as super high-frequency radio waves called microwaves. Microwave transmission is mainly used to transmit messages between ground-based stations and satellite communications systems.

51

Working: Microwave transmission mainly uses radio waves whose wavelengths are conveniently measured in small units such as centimeters. Microwaves belong to the radio spectrum ranges of roughly 1.0 gigahertz (GHz) to 30 GHz. Antennas used in microwave transmissions[Fig 3] are of convenient sizes and shapes. Microwave transmission depends on line-of- sight in order to work properly. For two way communications to take place, two frequencies are used. However, this does not require two antennas because the frequencies can be dealt with one antenna at both ends.The distance covered by microwave signals relies on the height of the antenna. Each antenna is built with a fitted repeater to regenerate the signal before passing it on to the next antenna in line. The ideal distance between each antenna is approximately 25 miles. The main drawback of microwave signals is that they can be affected by bad weather, especially rain.

52

4.WIRELESS CHANNEL & IT’S EVOLUTION -

IEEE 802.11g/b wireless nodes communicate with each other using radio frequency signals in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) band between 2.4 GHz and 2.5 GHz. Neighboring channels are 5 MHz apart. However, due to the spread spectrum effect of the signals, a node sending signals using a particular channel will utilize frequency spectrum 12.5 MHz above and below the center channel frequency. As a result, two separate wireless networks using neighboring channels (for example, channel 1 and channel 2) in the same general vicinity will interfere with each other. Applying two channels that allow the maximum channel separation will decrease the amount of channel cross-talk and provide a noticeable performance increase over networks with minimal channel separation.

The radio frequency channels used are:

Channel Center FrequencyFrequency Spread

12 2467 MHz2454.5 MHz - 2479.5 MHz

13 2472 MHz2459.5 MHz - 2484.5 MHz

53

The term “WIRELESS” came into public use to refer to a radio receiver or transceiver (a dual purpose receiver and transmitter device), establishing its usage in the field of wireless telegraphy early on; now the term is used to describe modern wireless connection s such as in cellular networks and wireless Broadband Internet. It is also used in a general sense to refer to any type of operation that is implemented without the use of wires, such as “Wireless Remote Control”, “Wireless Energy Transfer”, etc. regardless of the specific technology (e.g., radio, infrared, ultrasonic, etc.) that is used to accomplish the operation. Practical applications of the Wireless Radio communication & Radio Remote Control Technology would be implemented by Nikola Tesla. In the last fifty years, Wireless Communications Industry experienced drastic changes driven by many technology innovations…

• Security systems – For homes and office buildings, hard wired implementation security systems are replaced by the Wireless technology.

• Cellular Telephone – Radio waves are used to facilitate the operator to make phone calls from any place on the earth. CDMA, GSM, and 3G are examples of the advancement made by wireless communication in the domain.

• Wireless energy transfer – A process where a power source transmits electrical energy to electrical load which does not have built-in power source wirelessly.

55

ADVANTAGE OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION1. Remote Area Connectivity- Workers, doctors and other professionals working in remote- location hospitals and medical centres can keep in touch with anyone through wireless communication. Non-profit organization volunteers working in remote and underserved areas can stay connected to the outside world with the help of wireless communication.

2. On-Demand Entertainment Bonanza- For those unable to keep away from their daily soap operas, reality-programs, online TV shows and Internet surfing or download activities, wireless communication ensures an entertainment bonanza on--demand and anytime.

3. Anywhere, Anytime Work- Through wireless communication, working professionals and mobile workers can work and access the Internet just about anywhere, anytime without the hassles of wires and network cables.

4. Enhanced Productivity- Workers, students, professionals and others need not be constrained by wired Internet connections or dial-up connectivity. Wireless Internet connectivity options ensures that work and assignments can be completed anywhere and enhance overall productivity of all concerned.

56

DISADVANTAGE OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION1. Wireless communications are limited by the range of the transmitter.

2. Cost of wireless communication system and components are high.

3. When transmitting data, users must sometimes send smaller bits of data so the information moves more quickly. The size of the device that's accessing the information is also still an issue.

4. Many applications need to be reconfigured if they are going to be used through wireless connections.

5.Most client/server applications rely on a persistent connection, which is not the case with wireless.

6. Since radio waves travel through the atmosphere they can be disturbed by electrical interferences (such as lightning) that cause static.

Radio Service Software (RSS) is software package used to program commercial Motorola two-way radios and cellular telephones. An update of RSS is CPS, a Windows-based version of the package used for some of Motorola's newer radio models. Radios are connected to PCs via proprietary programming cables. The use of genuine Motorola OEM programming cables is strongly suggested, as aftermarket brands are not as reliable and could lead to radio damage.

RADIO SERVICE SOFTWARE(RSS)

75

RSS (the Carrier and Super Agent forms) is available to authorized professionals from Motorola. The license does not permit re-sale of the software. Unauthorized possession and use of RSS can lead to criminal charges and prosecution, as well as legal action by Motorola. On July 17, 2000 Motorola filed a lawsuit against five individuals accused of selling copies of RSS through E-Bay. Nowadays, radios are designed with a wide range of features but still offer radio services the ability to customize and personalize radios. This happened because of modern microprocessor chip technology in the radio and the use of Radio Service Software (RSS) -a computer program that, when interfaced in the radio electronically programs and personalizes a radio with a unique set of features for each individual customer.

76

There are 4 working modes of a Walkie-talkie set:

1.CSQ (Carrier Squelch)-Used for receiver to unmute all carriers and transmit no signal.

2.TPL (Tone Private Line)-If you want the receiver to unmute only specific carriers with specific codes use Private Line. With TPL we can either type the frequency in MHz or we can enter a 2 digit code.

3.DPL (Digital Private Line)-In this form of private line a 3 digit digital sequence is entered. The carrier unmutes only if the DPL codes match.

4.INV DPL (Inverted DPL)-Inverted DPL is used only when the costumer has an audio path flipped.

MAINTENANCE AND PROBLEM DETECTION OF MOTOROLA SETS..

83

A number of Departments in Tata Steel rely upon these GM and GP Motorola sets for communication within the department. Information relating to the working of various machines, instruments, and their conditions can be shared through these devices. Many hundreds of GM and GP sets are used in Tata Steel.

Due to the extensive usage of these wireless sets, continuous exposure to dust, heat and due to various other contributing factors depending on its workplace, these wireless sets suffer internal wear and tear. Therefore, they do not function properly. In these cases, these sets are brought to ELECTRICAL REPAIR SHOP at MED(ELECTRICAL).

NEED FOR MAINTENANCE:

84

Software Defect : These types of defects result due some programming problem like faulty code in the set. They can be easily rectified by making small changes in the program like editing the frequency or the specific mode in the set as per the frequency rating and the modes allotted to the particular department.

Hardware Defect : These include problems in hardware components like receiver(RX), transmitter(TX), problems in volume knob and frequency knob, replacement of display board, burned PCB(Printed Circuit Board), speaker problem and many more problems in various hardware components.

TYPES OF DEFECT :

85

1.Software Defects are very easy to overcome as a small change in the code or program of the set is a remedy to this defect.

2.Hardware Defects are tough to overcome. As the hardware parts like receiver and transmitter are very small , extreme skill is required to repair them. Very few people are trained to do so, therefore, they replace most of the hardware faulty parts. Although, its costs them more, but it is more efficient.

3. Between April,2013 to December,2013 , 373 faulty Motorola sets have been received by the Electrical Repair Shop. Out of those 340 sets had Hardware Defects, 20 sets had Software Defects, and 13 sets were reported with both Hardware Defects and Software Defects. Most of the Hardware Defect sets received had PCB and Speaker related problems.
