FRAME STRUCRURES:

1-GSM:

The GSM frame structure is designated as hyperframe, superframe, multiframe

and frame. The minimum unit being frame (or TDMA frame) is made of 8 time
slots.
One GSM hyperframe composed of 2048 superframes.
Each GSM superframe composed of multiframes (either 26 or 51 as described
below).
Each GSM multiframe composed of frames (either 51 or 26 based on multiframe
type).
Each frame composed of 8 time slots.
Hence there will be total of 2715648 TDMA frames available in GSM and the
same cycle continue
