WHAT DOES GSM MEAN IN ENGLISH?

gsm

GSM

GSM, is a standard developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute to describe protocols for second generation digital cellular networks used by mobile phones. It is the de facto global standard for mobile communications with over 90% market share, and is available in over 219 countries and territories. The GSM standard was developed as a replacement for first generation analog cellular networks, and originally described a digital, circuit-switched network optimized for full duplex voice telephony. This was expanded over time to include data communications, first by circuit-switched transport, then packet data transport via GPRS and EDGE. Subsequently, the 3GPP developed third generation UMTS standards followed by fourth generation LTE Advanced standards, which are not part of the ETSI GSM standard. "GSM" is a trademark owned by the GSM Association. It may also refer to the initially most common voice codec used, Full Rate.
