Abstract—This paper come as a proposal to enhance the error control coding in 2nd generation (2G) and 3rd generation (3G) for mobile communication to be capable to transmit the medical data by high level of reliability. The proposal bases on add extra code (convolution code) to the cellular mobile standard codes as concatenated channel code structure. The proposal transmits the medical data through this new channel that adopted as Medical Network Channel Code (MNCC) through mobile cellular networks. By this proposal we optimize the Bit Error Rate (BER) equal to the level of 10-5 with low SNR level that is a requirement needed for transmission medical data. The performance of the proposal MNCC compared based on 2G and 3G cellular networks. The performance of the MNCC has been proven and investigated using computer simulations under different channels condition such as, Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh Fading.

Index Terms—Cellular networks, error correction code, concatenated codes.
