    INTRODUCTION:
    Global system for mobiles(GSM) is a second generation cellular standard developed by
    European Telecommunication Standards Institute. It is developed to describe the protocols
    for second generation cellular networks and in order to create a common European mobile
    telephone standard but later it was accepted world - wide . (Huurdeman & Wiley, 2003)
    Formerly it was”Groupe Speciale Mobile” founded in 1982 now it is Global System for
    Mobile Communication.

    HISTORY:

    ARCHITECTURE:

    SIM CARD:
     Sim card is used in the identification of mobile phone.
     It is the key feature of Global system for mobiles.
     It is used for authentication.

    BTS:
    It can handles the protocols with the mobile.

    BSC:
    BSC is usd to manages the resources(channel, setup, handover) for one or more BTS’s.

    MSC:
     MSC stands for MOBILE SWITCHING CENTER.
     It is the central component of the network.
     MSC can handles many cell phone at a time.
    HLR:
     It is the database of all users and current location.
     It is one per network.

    VLR:
     It is the database of all user and romers in some geographical areas.
     It caches the HLR.

    EIR:
    It is the database of all valid equipment.

    AUC:
    Database of users secret key.

    BENEFITS OF GSM:
     GSM provide cost effective solutions and products.
     Advanced versions of GSM provide will provide high speed download and upload of data.
     Due to availability of large number of network engineers at affordable cost GSM is easy to
    maintain.
     The GSM signal not deteriorate inside the office premises and home.
     GSM can be integrated easily with other wireless technology based devices.
     Mobile phones works based on Sim cards so it is easy to change variety of mobiles phone by
    user.
     SAIC(Single Antenna Interface Cancellation) and DIAC(Dual Antenna Interface Cancellation)
    provide very high transmission quality.
     Networks that are based on GSM
