Technical term for a mobile radio base station. A BTS houses the transmitter and receiver equipment and antennae for a given radio cell. Several BTSs are administered by a single Base Station Controller (BSC), which in turn is under the control of a Mobile Switching Centre (MSC).
The Base Transceiver Station (BTS) is the section of mobile network, which is responsible for transmitting to and receiving radio signals from the mobile phone. The BTS carries out transcoding of voice channels or packet data, allocates radio transmission resources to mobiles, sends pages for incoming connections, and many other tasks related to the radio network. A large metropolitan area typically has hundreds of BTSs, located on rooftops or next to transmission towers.
Base Transceiver Station (BTS) is the equipment which facilitates the wireless communication between user equipments and the network. User equipments are devices like mobile phones (handsets), WLL phones, computers with wireless internet connectivity, Wi Fi and Wi MAX gadgets etc. The network can be that of any of the wireless communication technologies like GSM, CDMA, WLL , WAN, Wi Fi, Wi MAX etc.
