OVERVIEW OF 2G AND 3G• 2G NETWORK:
– Evolved from 1G– First system that used digital
signals– Improve speech quality,
coverage and security.– It introduced data services for
mobile,starting wth SMS text messages
![Page 8: Idea ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051208/546fc3dfaf79597a288b458d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• TECHNOLOGY USED IN 2G
• Divided into TDMA and CDMA based standards depending upon
multiplexing used.
– TDMA Standards: (a) GSM (Global System Mobile) (b) Interim Standard 136(IS-136) (c) Pacific Digital Cellular(PDC)
![Page 9: Idea ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051208/546fc3dfaf79597a288b458d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
3g network
• 3rd generation mobile communication.
• It offers high speed data rate.
• Offers wide range of services.
• Increased bandwidth.

Road to 3g
![Page 11: Idea ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051208/546fc3dfaf79597a288b458d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
where lies the difference???• 2G use different switching techniques for voice and data, where
3G uses single switching for any kind of data.
• 2G is circuit-switched, but 3G is packet-switched.
• GSM uses TDMA technology with narrowband 200Khz, 3G (WCDMA) use CDMA technology with broadband 5Mhz.
• 2G has low data rate, voice oriented services.•
3G has higher data rate and data oriented services3G enables Multiplexing of services with different quality
requirements on a single connection, e.g. speech, video and packet data.

Influence of Elasticity

Influence of Elasticity
• Price Inelastic:• % change in Q < % change in P• e.g. a 5% increase in price would be met by a fall in sales of
something less than 5% • Revenue would rise• A 7% reduction in price would lead to a rise in sales of something
less than 7%• Revenue would fall• Price Elastic:• % change in quantity demanded > % change in price• e.g. A 4% rise in price would lead to sales falling by something more
than 4%• Revenue would fall• A 9% fall in price would lead to a rise in sales of something more
than 9%• Revenue would rise
