GPRS - How Good Is It? A Study from the User's Perspective
Overview This white paper explains GPRS which is implemented as a 2.5G technology upgrade in the form of a network overlay to existing cellular networks. Without requiring the dedication of any new channels, GPRS takes advantage of the short bursty nature of IP packet transmission and effectively grabs short time slots allocated from channels dedicated to voice traffic. Network efficiency is thus improved, because existing channels already used for voice can be simultaneously used to send IP packets as well.
