The Evolution of 3G
The Progression
The standardization of 3G evolution is improving in both the 3GPP2 and 3GPP. The related specifications of 3GPP2 and 3GPP developments are known as UMB and LTE, respectively. Qualcomm has cancelled developments on UMB in November 2008. 3G evolution applies a part that goes further than 3G technologies to boost the performance and functions, as well as create a smoother migration path for users.
There are various ways from 2G to 3G. The main path begins in Europe from GSM once GPRS is added to a given system. From a given point, it is possible to be directed to the UMTS system. The system evolution in North America will begin from TDMA or Time division multiple access, change to EDGE or Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution or EDGE, then finally to UMTS.
The Others
A couple of 3G standards are being used and applied in Japan namely W-CDMA done by NTT DoCoMo. This is FOMA, which is attuned to UMTS, and Softbank Mobile which uses UMTS. CDMA2000, is used by KDDI. The transition for marketing reasons to 3G was finalized in Japan in 2006. 3G, when first introduced in the form of UMTS and HSDPA technology was managed by SETAR in the Caribbean, particularly Aruba in December 2007. The network's implementation phase was brought out by Alcatel-Lucent. SETAR also implemented a 3G network founded on CDMA 1X EV-DO dated April 2007.
The Networks
Broadband internet is not the only one that can be exploited using multi-megabits speeds. VOIP and video calling can also be done. HSDPA or high speed data packet access has capacities of taking 14.4 Mbit/s downstream, which is faster compared to majority of the standard lines. This is still faster compared to cities belonging to advanced and well-developed places. The capabilities of 5.8 Mbit/s uplink is above 10 times better than standard ADSL. It is also 7 times faster compared to the number one cable provider, Virgin Media.
Growing Networks
At present, there are about 400 3G and HSDPA networks all over the globe in one-fourth of the nations in the world. The migration of worldwide subscribers to 3G has already exceeded 15%, not to mention more than 35% among nations where 3G has been launched by the end of 2008. Several operators have launched fixed rate data plans and low cost plans for 3G information use, leading to the increase in usage and reduced costs.
During the launch of 3.5G HSDPA, the technology is given as a movable broadband modem link for both laptop and desktop users. These are priced at the low end for consumer affordability. 3G data can be quite pricey when roaming, with the average cost for every megabyte priced at around 10 dollars.
It will be very difficult to us several megabytes because of the undeveloped speeds that several networks give. You should assess and compare prices from different network providers first.
