GSM - Global System for Mobile Communications: 2G mobile telephone. Standard used in 2G digital mobile communication systems in Europe and Asia which specifies how data is encoded and transferred through the spectrum. GSM digitalises and compresses data related to a connection, transmitting it through a channel together with that of other users, using time-division multiplexing.
QoS - Quality of Service: Term used for a set of parameters which characterise the performance of a circuit, a network or a service.
UMTS - Universal Mobile Telecommunications System: One of the 3G mobile communications systems which will be used, particularly in Europe, and which is integrated in a much larger family (IMT-2000).
