Com’on folks I gotta bid over here gimmie 50 – 55, 55 I got 60. This is a real good deal folks, one of a kind, do I hear 70, I got 75 from the man in the red hat. Now lady you got the bid now at 85, do I hear 95 out there anywhere? Okay young man just put your hand up when I say a number that you can afford. 105 I hear now get me 115, anyone? 110? 115? Going once! Going twice. I have 1000 in the back row from the man with the bald head, big eyes, and long fingers.
Holy sacrilegious cow my friends. Pick another number before this whole race jumps the shark. Let me explain the G systems as we know them.
“The following standards are typically branded 3G:
The UMTS system, first offered in 2001, standardized by 3GPP, Europe, Japan, China (however with a different radio interface) and other regions GSM 2G infrastructure. Cell phones are UMTS and GSM hybrids.
The original and most widespread radio interface is called W-CDMA.
The TD-SCDMA radio interface was commercialized in 2009.
Latest UMTS release, HSPA+, with peak data rates up to 56 Mbit/s in the downlink (28 Mbit/s in existing services) and 22 Mbit/s in the uplink.
The CDMA2000 system, offered in 2002, standardized by 3GPP2, sharing infrastructure with the IS-95 2G standard. The cell phones are typically CDMA2000 and IS-95 hybrids. The latest release EVDO Rev B offers peak rates of 14.7 Mbit/s downstream.
Systems and radio interfaces are based on kindred spread spectrum radio transmission technology. While the GSM EDGE standard ("2.9G"), DECT cordless phones and Mobile WiMAX standards formally also fulfill the IMT-2000 requirements and are approved as 3G standards by ITU, these are typically not branded 3G, and are based on completely different technologies.
A new generation appears approximately every ten years since 1G systems in 1981/1982. Each is characterized by new frequency bands, higher data rates and non backwards compatible transmission technology. The first release of 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard does not completely fulfill the ITU 4G requirements called IMT-Advanced. First release LTE is not backwards compatible with 3G, but is a pre-4G or 3.9G technology, sometimes branded "4G" . Its evolution LTE Advanced is a 4G technology. WiMAX is another technology verging on or marketed as 4G.”
Clear?
How many of you skipped down to here after the first sentence or two? For each one of you who did so, you have validated thecoffeeguy.ca over Wikiknowsnotwhat.com . Obviously my source.
I think as the G race proceeds, my own expertise is initially leaning toward the “H” Networks. And as I approach the middle of this decade I will be receiving National Research Chair monies for development of the domestic “Zed Net”. This leading edge networking will initially be “Ten Gig Zed”. I will let the plebes work on the first 999,999,999 Zed Nets.
Pour it slowly my friends, I don’t like bubbles disturbing my brew.
