GPRS

What is GPRS? 
The full form of the GPRS is General Packet Radio Services. 


The General Packet Radio Service GPRS is the new non-voice value added service which allows information to be sent & received across the mobile telephone network. It supplements today’s Circuit Switched Data and Short Message Service. GPRS is NOT related to GPS which is also known as the Global Positioning System, which is a similar acronym that is often used in the mobile contexts. GPRS has several unique features which can be summarized as:

SPEED of GPRS: Theoretical maximum speeds of up to 171.2 kilobits per second (kbps) are achievable with GPRS using all eight timeslots at the same time. This is about three times as fast as the data transmission speeds possible over today’s fixed telecommunications networksand ten times as fast as the current Circuit Switched Data services on the GSM networks.

IMMEDIACY of GPRS: GPRS facilitates instant connections whereby information can be sent or received immediately as the need arises, subject to radio coverage. No dial-up modem connection is necessary. This is why GPRS users are sometimes referred to be as being “always connected”.

NEW APPLICATIONS, BETTER APPLICATIONS: GPRS facilitates several new applications that have not previously been available over GSM networks due to the limitations in the speed of Circuit Switched Data of 9.6 kbps and message length of Short Message Service of 160 characters. GPRS will fully enable the Internet applications you are used to on your desktop from web browsing to chat over the mobile network.
