PACKET DATA (GENERAL PACKET RADIO SERVICE, GPRS)
Glossary: High-speed data enables data transmission rates to a
maximum of 43.2 Kbps, which is three times faster than the standard
data rates of the GSM system. HSCSD is comparable to the speed
of many computer modems that communicate with today's fixed
telephone systems.
than normal voice or data calls, as the phone may send data more
frequently to the system.
Glossary: Packet data, or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), uses
packet data technology where information is sent in short bursts
of data over the mobile system. The benefit of sending data in
packets is that the system is occupied only when sending or
receiving data. Because GPRS uses the system efficiently, it allows
for quick data connection set up and fast data transmission speeds.
