Do You Know Which Technology Is Used In Your Mobile?

While using a mobile you may come across some terms which you don’t understand. Of course many don’t an opportunity to know them. I am providing some most common terms used in mobile glossary.


  • 3g: 3G is an International Telecommunication Union (ITU) specification for the third-generation mobile communications technology. This will help you to transfer data and multimedia content like video, music and games, at a high-speed.
  • Bluetooth: Bluetooth is a radio-frequency standard that functions as a personal-area network (PAN). Simply saying- a cable replacement technology. The technology can be applied between desktops and notebook computers, handhelds, PDAs, mobile phones, camera phones, headphones, printers, digital cameras, headsets, keyboards and computer mice, to replace cable-based connections with short-range wireless connections.
  • CDMA: Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a digital wireless service that transfers data at rates from 40 to 144 Kbps. CDMA allows every channel to use the full available spectrum, allowing greater capacity and higher audio quality for more users.
  • TDMA: Division Multiple Access (TDMA) is a digital wireless service that divides a radio frequency into time slots and then allocates the slots to multiple calls, allowing a single frequency to support multiple, simultaneous data channels.
  • GSM: Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) is a digital cellular system that uses TDMA, which allows a single frequency to support multiple, simultaneous data channels.
