CELLULAR TELEPHONE MESSAGE CODES
============================================================================
The previous file (Part Five) listed the Message Formats and Message Words
used by the Cellular Telephone system. Message words have variable
sub-fields that are set to convey various information (such as dialed
numbers, mobile phone ID, commands, requests, channel assignments etc.).
Here are the codes used in Message Word subfields during data transmissions.
============================================================================

MAC I II III Nominal ERP Power Outputs
--- --- --- --- Class ERP Level
000 6 2 -2 --------- ---- --------

011 -6 -6 -6 Class III 0.6W (-2 dBW)
100 -10 -10 -10

to prevent Word Sync patterns from occuring inside a command word.

Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) Codes
Right now the best GUESS, based on available material, is that BCH coding
is the way that the 12 bit Parity field is computed.
The "polynomial" that generates the code is given as:
12 10 8 5 4 3 0
gB(X)= X + X + X + X + X + X + X
Taking this verbatim in the usual way (superscripts meaning exponentiation)
gives ridiculous results that would be difficult to compute at the
10 Kb/s data rate required by the Cellular Data Protocol. It makes more sense
to interpret this notation to indicate that the bits of the message word are
summed (in binary) in 12, 10, 8, 5, 4, and 3 bit bytes with 1 added.
That is: the word is broken up into a bunch of sub-bytes of a certain length,
these are added together, the original word is again broken into sub-bytes of
the next length and those are summed ... until all listed lengths have been
summed. THEN all of those sums are summed and 1 is added. The low order
12 bits of the results of this procedure are used as the parity bits.
THIS IS ALMOST PURE SPECULATION. Confirmation is currently being sought at
university engineering libraries, or by examining the parity bits in
published examples or intercepted cellular messages.
The Parity bits are irrelevant to hacking Cellular ID codes however, because
message words are repeated many times in each message block, and the ID
fields (MIN1, MIN2, and SID) can simply be lifted from the most
frequent (and most likely error-free) message words in the block.
HOWEVER: If BCH coding transforms the message bits as well as the Parity
bits then the proper BCH coding algorithm becomes critical. If all else fails,
diassembling the ROM firmware from a Cellular Phone should be conclusive.
