access with Internet Protocol IP-based services. But 3G is not just about applications that require high speed data rates. It’s about convienience and speed of access HISTORY
NTT DoCoMo already launched the world's
first commercialised third-generation "FOMA" mobile communication service on October 1, 2001. "FOMA" is the name used in Japan for NTT DoCoMo's 3G service. . The 3G licensing process has Completed in many countries in Europe, and the first wideband radio networks are expected to enter commercial operation in 2002. FIRST GENERATION Advanced Mobile Phone Service-
An AMP was developed by Bell Labs to replace
older, severely limited radiophone services, such as IMTS. AMPS was one of the first modern cellular phone systems, which remained in operation until 2008 SECOND GENERATION
GLOBAL SYSTEM FOR MOBILE COMMUNICATION
• GSM differs from its predecessor technologies
in that both signaling and speech channels are digital, and thus GSM is considered a second generation 2G mobile phone system. This also facilitates the wide-spread implementation of data communication applications into the system. THIRD GENERATION
Wideband Code Division Multiple Access :-
It is the basis of Japan'sNTT DoCoMo's FOMA service and the most-commonly used member of the UMTS family and sometimes used as a synonym for UMTS. It utilizes the DS- CDMA channel access method and the FDD duplexing method to achieve higher speeds and support more users compared to most time division multiple access (TDMA) schemes used today. Interim Standard 95 (IS-95) :-
is the first CDMA-based digital cellular
standard by Qualcomm. The brand name for IS-95 is cdmaOne. IS-95 is also known as TIA-EIA-95 CDMA or "code division multiple access" is a digital radio system that transmits streams of bits (PN codes). CDMA permits several radios to share the same frequencies. Time Division Synchronous:- Code Division Multiple Access (TD- SCDMA) or UTRA/UMTS-TDD 1.28 Mcps Low Chip Rate (LCR), i an air interface found in UMTS mobile telecommunications networks in China as an alternative to W-CDMA. Together with TD- CDMA, it is also known UMTS-TDD or IMT 2000 Time-Division (IMT-TD
