What is 3G Technology?

About 3G

Based on the International Telecommunications Union standards, the 3G network is the 3rd generation of mobile networking and telecommunications. It features a wider range of services and advances network capacity over the previous 2nd generation network. The 3G network increases the rate of information transfer known as spectral efficiency. Telephony has received a wider area and more range, while video and broadband wireless data transfers have also been positively affected. These criteria are identified as the IMT-2000 standard.

Japan and South Korea were the first countries to successfully launch this network. The Japanese company FOMA launched in May 2001 and South Korea's SK Telecom launched in January 2002. British Telecom in the United Kingdom and Monet Mobile Networks in the United States followed suit.

Now most of the countries had started implementation of this technology....
