 3G TECHNOLOGY
3 G network is one of the leading technologies in today’s wireless
technology. 3G is a collection of technologies including EDGE, HSDPA
etc that promise to bring high-speed data services to mobile work
forces. Progress toward ubiquitous 3G coverage is being made but
competition from rival technologies continues to complicate the market.
Many users have rushed to purchase 3G smart phones, and roaming
between carriers continues to be a concern. Still, 3G holds enormous
promise for users to always be on the cellular network without the
security worries of using a wireless hotspot.
 
This service is available with all wireless phones. Verizon is the first
one to use this. It was first implemented on CDMA phones .Now this
service is also available with GSM. If we describe 3G is nothing but
fast stream and high bandwidth.
 EVOLUTION
1G(1980’s)
 Provide AMPS(advanced mobile phone service) networks
used FDMA(frequency division multiplexing access) to carry
analog voice over channels in the 800 MHz freq. band

2G(1990’s)
Uses two mobile phones standards:-
1. CDMA(code division multiple access) – Can
multiplex 64 calls per channel in the 800 MHz
frequency band.
2. GSM(global system for mobile communication) –
Uses TDMA(time division multiple access) to
multiplex up to 8 calls per channel in the 900 to 1800 MHz
frequency band.
(contd.)

2.5G
Uses packet switching and includes many multimedia applications
like GPRS, EDGE etc.

GPRS(General Packet Radio Service) – Provide data transfer

rate up to 50 Kbps.

EDGE(Enhanced data rate for global evolution) – Provide data transfer

rate up to 150 Kbps.
 (Contd.)

3G
• Concept created by international telecomm union(ITU) and called
IMT 2000. Major aim was to provide global roaming.

The third generation partnership projects technologies

consists of following:-
(contd.)

 GPRS – data transfer rate up to 114 Kbps.

 EDGE – data transfer rate up to 384 Kbps.

 WCDMA(Wideband CDMA) – data transfer rate up to 1.92 Mbps.

 HSDPA(High Speed Downlink Packet Access) – data transfer rate up to 14

Mbps.

 BENEFITS OF 3G
With 3G you can do everything you do now, but you can do it much
better, a lot faster and from almost anywhere! Some of the main
advantages are that 3G allows for
 higher call volumes
 faster data retrieving speed(3 mbps)
 support many multimedia applications such as video call via mobile
phone, email sms, games etc.

To download one minute music clip:

 With 2G: 4 to 5 minutes
 With 3G: 10 seconds
 BASIC SERVICES OF 3G
Multimedia
integration of music, video and voice such as video-
phones, video-on-demand and MMS (already available)

Location-based services
• e.g. Map guide to nearest destination
similar like GPS technology

M-commerce
e-commerce to mobile terminals, exp. Ordering goods,
checking bank account

 3G TELEPHONY IN INDIA

First launched in Kolkata at Salt lake’s Sector V on 22nd March, 2009

• Only BSNL subscribers with GPRS handsets can view live T.V.
and use a host of services like mobile broadband internet, video
telephony and low cost surveillance.
• Other operators can use this facility after buying the rights from
the Government by December 2009.
(Contd.)

BSNL’s CHARGES FOR 3G CUSTOMERS

3G SIM cards Rs 59/- *

Prepaid Activation Voucher Rs 120/- *

Postpaid Activation Voucher Rs 225/- *

* Prices may vary in future.

 CONCLUSION
• The mobile boom has led to the development of the current second
generation mobile service. The continued global mobile boom and
the desire for broadband communications 'anywhere, anytime' has
provided the motivation for the development of third generation
mobile communications systems.

 As we approach the new millennium 3G systems offer a way to

provide not only global communications, but also global broadband
services such as multimedia applications and high-speed Internet
access.
