Power rating of resistors changes with their sizes, the bigger the resistor
the greater the wattages and the smaller the resistor the lesser the wattage.
Different sizes of resistors are shown below which are drawn to the exact

thin, so the resistance become lesser. (The diode becomes a conductor,

Semiconductor
It is a material which resists between the insulator and the conductor.
The resistance is often changed by light, heat, or magnetic field. The particular
characteristic of the semiconductor materials depend on its atomic structure, (It
is the number and arrangement of electron) which allow their conductivity to be
increased by adding impurity elements (It is the adding of foreign electrons, ions,
or holes), the process is called doping.
Doping is the intensified number of electron charges, ion charges, or hole
charges that can be moved by an external supply voltage. For example when the
amount of free electron (It is a result of a single loose electron that acquires
energy and collides with the other planetary electrons that causes them to break
away from the attraction of the nucleus and becomes free.) is increased, the
doped semiconductor is N-type or negative; and when it is decreased the
amount of free electron forms the P-type or positive.
The semiconductor was discovered in late 1873 when a certain rod or wire
called selenium was used and it changes its electrical resistance when it was
struck by light.
Bardeen and Brattain invented the first transistor in 1947 and Bell
laboratory produced the first successful transistor in 1948.

considerably with the introduction of various digital standards.

General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is a mobile data service available to users of GSM
and IS-136 mobile phones. GPRS data transfer is typically charged per megabyte of
transferred data, while data communication via traditional circuit switching is billed per
minute of connection time, independently of if the user actually has transferred data or been
in an idle state. GPRS can be utilized for services such as WAP access, SMS and MMS, but
also for Internet communication services such as email and web access. In the future, it is
expected that low cost voice over IP will be made available in cell phones.

GSM
The Global System for Mobile Communications, GSM (original acronym: Groupe Spécial
Mobile) is the most popular standard for mobile phones in the world. GSM service is used by
over 2 billion people across more than 212 countries and territories.[1][2] The ubiquity of the
GSM standard makes international roaming very common between mobile phone operators,
enabling subscribers to use their phones in many parts of the world. GSM differs significantly
from its predecessors in that both signaling and speech channels are Digital call quality,
which means that it is considered a second generation (2G) mobile phone system. This fact
has also meant that data communication was built into the system from the 3rd Generation
Partnership Project (3GPP).

27
Handoff:
The transfer of control of a cellular phone call in progress from one cell to another, without

Internet
The Internet is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of interconnected computer
networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol (IP). It
is a "network of networks" that consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic, business,
and government networks, which together carry various information and services, such as
electronic mail, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked Web pages and other documents
of the World Wide Web.
The IMEI number is used by the GSM network to identify valid devices and therefore can be
used to stop a stolen phone from accessing the network. For example, if a mobile phone is
stolen, the owner can call his or her network provider and instruct them to "ban" the phone
using its IMEI number. This renders the phone useless, regardless of whether the phone's
SIM is changed.
I-mode:
A service developed by Japanese operator NTT DoCoMo, I-mode delivers a huge range of
services to subscribers and has proved enormously popular with some 30 million regular
