By beginning with an explanation of why GPRS is necessary and describing the core concept of GPRS operations, the TBF (Temporary Block Flow), a revision section then covers the GSM Air Interface with its Radio, Physical and Logical channels and this progressively leads to the GPRS logical channels - wha 606 $aGeneral Packet Radio Service 606 $aGlobal system for mobile communications 606 $aMobile computing 615 0$aGeneral Packet Radio Service. 615 0$aGlobal system for mobile communications. 615 0$aMobile computing. 676 $a621.38456 700 $aMcGuiggan$b Peter$01661708 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828341403321 996 $aGPRS in practice$94017808 997 $aUNINA
