GPRS: trial service Explanation: GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a step between GSM and 3G cellular networks. GPRS offers faster data transmission via a GSM network within a range 9.6Kbits to 115Kbits. This new technology makes it possible for users to make telephone calls and transmit data at the same time. (For example, if you have a mobile phone using GPRS, you will be able to simultaneously make calls and receive e-mail massages.) The main benefits of GPRS are that it reserves radio resources only when there is data to send and it reduces reliance on traditional circuit-switched network elements. With GPRS, an IP data transmission protocol, which is characteristic of computer networks, is being introduced to GSM. IP is a data transmission protocol which is used in Internet, the largest computer network in the world today. http://www.cellular-news.com/gprs/what_is_gprs.shtml |
