PREFACE
THE TOPIC IS RELATED TO TELE COMMUNICATION INDUSTRY

Indian industry is waking up to the challenges thrown in by market


economy, policies and globalization. To survive in this highly competitive
scenario, heavy emphasis is laid on getting to know the customer’s basic needs and
keeping abreast with the latest technology. The collective efforts of both assume
relevance in this context.

This topic is relate with 2g (spectrum) and 3g (spectrum) in this report taking
about 2g v/s 3g what the usage of 3g technology in modern world. How is it
beneficial for the consumer.

What strategy follow by the Indian telecom industry. And what is the special
criteria for launching 3g services.

Knowledge of market is essential for the development of the product. The needs of
the consumers change very often and so the companies are forced to incorporate
these changes within themselves. This point becomes more important for an
organization that is acquiring a brand that is considered as a regional brand, Airtel
the voice of Rajasthan

Introduction

2g (spectrum)
It is a term used in the telecommunication sector. It is a spectrum that
supports 2G technology. High bandwidth is required for this purpose.

"2G" means second-generation wireless telephone technology. 2G


cellular telecom networks were commercially launched on the GSM
standard in Finland in 1991.

"G" has been superseded by newer technologies, such as 2.5G, 2.75G,


3G, and 4G; however, 2G networks are still used in many parts of the
world.

There are three primary benefits of 2G networks over their predecessors:


phone conversations were digitally encrypted; 2G systems were
significantly more efficient on the spectrum allowing for far greater
mobile phone penetration levels; and 2G introduced data services for
mobile, starting with SMS text messages.

A new suite of standards to deliver mobile multimedia

It's boom time for mobile phones in India And people are looking
forward to more information, faster data access and multimedia services
through their mobile phones. 3G technology is here to turn this dream
into reality. It's a technology anxiously awaited by telecom operations
and subscribers in India.
Not very long! India is all set to launch 3G mobile telephone services by
June 2007.
According to Telecom Regulatory Authority of India chairman
Nripendra Misra, a total of 32.5 MHz is available for allocation within
the next 6-9 months
3G helps to simultaneously transfer both voice data (a telephone call)
and non-voice data (such as downloading information, exchanging e-
mail, and instant messaging. The highlight of 3G is video telephony. 4G
technology stands to be the future standard of wireless devices.

3G- Introduction, Evolution,


Deployment Strategy
The primary objective of this research is to discuss about the 3rd
Generation Wireless Networks, their evolution/migration from 2G and/or other
pre-3G technologies to 3G Technology, Spectrum Allocation and Licensing
Policies, and the deployment strategies involved. In this paper, 3G would be
referred to as IMT-2000 systems in most of the places, the context of which would
be provided in detail later in this paper.

1. Introduction/Evolution of Cellular Telephony:

The First generation (1G) Cellular Mobile Services was developed


with the invention of the microprocessor and the digitization of the control link
between the cell phone and the cell site, in the late 1960s and early 1970s. These
analog cellular systems were developed based on the Improved Mobile Telephone
Service (IMTS)-a system which was launched by Bell Systems, in the 1960s with
an aim to introduce direct dialing and higher bandwidth. Second generation (2G)
Cellular Mobile Systems was simply advancement over the First Generation
Systems, when the analog systems got replaced with the Digital Systems. These
systems digitized the control link as well as showed lots of improvements in the
Voice Signal. They were developed during the end of 1980s. With this,
achievement over better quality and higher capacity was introduced along with
lower cost to consumers. Advanced security and roaming got introduced. The 2G
systems (or so called Pre-IMT 2000 Networks) have been extensively deployed
almost in the entire world and have evolved significantly over the years to offer
improved performance and capabilities, especially for data services- introduced by
EDGE, GPRS (so called 2.5G Networks).Third generation (3G) The 3G systems
refer to the IMT-2000 systems which has been given a global standard of 3G by
the ITU. This is an evolution/enhancement of the existing and widely deployed
pre-IMT 2000 systems with much more advancement in Data services and with
higher bandwidth. It has opened the way to enable innovative applications and
services (e.g. Multimedia, Live-video buffering, and Location-based services,
among others). The first 3G network was deployed in Japan in 2001 by DoCoMo.
Within 3G, the services have also been continuously evolving with the introduction
of different software releases and more functionality, like Release 4, Release 99,
HSDPA, HSUPA, HSPA (a combination of HSDPA and HSUPA), etc. Fourth
generation (4G) The 4G systems is another advancement to the “yet immature” 3G
Systems in terms of handling a wide range of supported data rates in multi-user
environments ranging from approximately 100 Mbit/s for high mobility
applications such as mobile access, and up to approximately 1 Gbit/s for low
mobility applications such as local wireless access. However, 4G systems are still
in adolescence stage. There are debates going on for what actually constitutes 4G.
As of now, they are termed as “IMT-Advanced”. By mid 2008, ITU has been able
to define the set of requirements by which technologies and systems can be
considered as the part of “IMT Advanced” family and thus be called 4G. The
literal meaning of what actually comprises a “generation” comes from the fact that
the particular technologies enjoy the deployments in major market places globally
until the next “generation” comes into existence.

2. Branding of 3G-IMT2000: ITU’s Approval

“International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000) is


the global standard for third generation (3G) wireless communications, defined by
a set of interdependent ITU recommendations in the mid-1980s. IMT-2000
provides a framework for worldwide wireless access by linking the diverse systems
of terrestrial and/or satellite based networks. It will exploit the potential synergy
between digital mobile telecommunications technologies and systems for fixed and
mobile wireless access systems. ITU activities on IMT-2000 comprise
international standardization, including frequency spectrum and technical
specifications for radio and network components, tariffs and billing, technical
assistance and studies on regulatory and policy aspects.”[1] In the year 2000, the
technical specifications for the third generation family under the brand IMT-2000
got approved by the ITU. A few things which came with this approval were
Seamless Interoperability and Inter-working among various technologies and
systems. The spectrum between 400 MHz and 3 GHz was found suitable for 3G
deployment though some of the bands were already identified in 1992 and sold to
many
countries in late 1990s. “IMT-2000 is the result of collaboration of many entities,
inside the ITU (ITU-R and ITU-T), and outside the ITU (3GPP, 3GPP2, UWCC
and so on).”
