GPRS is based on GSM communications and complements existing services such as circuit switched cellular phone connections and the Short Message Service (SMS).GPRS represents the bridge between 2G and 3G mobile telecommunications and is commonly referred to as 2.5G. Implementation of GPRS requires modification of the existing GSM networks in that GSM is a circuit switched technology while GPRS is packet orienGeneral Packet Radio ServiceElectronic books.General Packet Radio Service.621.3845/6621.38456Sanders Geoff1966-873754MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910143222003321GPRS networks1950617UNINA
