3. UMTS - Architecture Evolution
(rel.99, rel.4, rel.5)
3GPP Releases
Release 99
Release 99 is an evolution of GSM/GPRS system, with a new radio interface,
based on WCDMA (Services with high capability).
• IP is based on packages, it means that the customer pay only for the things
downloaded, representing a lower cost.
Conclusions
• The 3G mobile communication systems are a kind of communication
system that can provide multiple kinds of high quality multimedia services
and implement global seamless coverage and global roaming.
• UMTS has evolved from its beginning in release 99 till the definition of
LTE ( part of Fourth Generation of mobile communications), this evolution
is represented by a set of Releases.
