The purpose of this course is to provide a comprehensive overview of the General Packet Radio Services system, hereafter referred to as the GPRS system, including the essential system design aspects. It is assumed that the reader is already familiar with circuit-switched communication in the GSM Systems.
A wireless packet data service for mobile terminals has been introduced in the systems for
· GSM 900,
· GSM 1800
· GSM 1900.
The abbreviation GSM stands for Global System for Mobile telephony. Section “GSM Standard for GPRS”, gives an overview of the GPRS background as being a standard. GSM 1800 is a version of GSM adapted for the 1800 MHz frequency. GSM 1900 is also GSM-based, but for the 1900 MHz frequency. It implements further mobile radio services that can be employed for wireless telephones.
The GPRS system provides a basic solution for Internet Protocol (IP) communication between Mobile Stations and Internet Service Hosts (IH).
This blog describes the system architecture for the GPRS system – which complies with the ETSI GSM standard for GPRS – as well as the functionality provided by the GPRS system. From the point of view of functionality, the GPRS system is integrated with the circuit-switched part of the GSM System.
