A new-generation technology for rapidly moving data and multimedia over wireless devices. Get more information at www.umts-forum.org.
or "UMTS" a ``third generation'' mobile communications system which will provide an enhanced range of multi-media services, for example video and high speed Internet access
A European third generation mobile communication system based on WCDMA technology and standardised by ETSI. Besides voice and data, UMTS enables audio and video delivery to wireless devices.
one of the standards of 3G technology. It uses WCDMA as its underlying standard. UMTS is sometimes marketed as "3GSM", emphasizing the combination of the 3G nature of the technology and the GSM standard which it was designed to supersede. Real UMTS use gives expected performance of up to 384 kbps.
This is the European standard for third generation mobile telephony, to replace GSM. Enables the transmission of text, digitalised voice, video and multimedia as well constant connection to the Internet.
Next-generation wireless technology that supports data speeds up to 2 Mbps but requires extra spectrum. UMTS is the standard name for W-CDMA.
A standardized broadband, packet-based system for the transmission of text, digitized voice, video, and multimedia. It is the planned standard for mobile users around the world and will replace the previous mobile communication via GSM.
A so-called 'third-generation (3G)' broadband, packet-based transmission of text, digitised voice, video, and multimedia at data rates up to and possibly higher than 2Mbps. See also GSM, GPRS, CDMA, TDMA.
A "third-generation" (3G) broadband, packet-based transmission of text, digitized voice, video, and multimedia at data rates up to and possibly higher than 2 megabits per second (Mbps). Offers a consistent set of services to mobile computer and phone users no matter where they are located in the world.
The goal of UMTS is to enable networks that offer true global roaming and can support a wide range of voice, data and multimedia services. A new-generation technology for rapidly moving data and multimedia over wireless devices. The European implementation of the 3G wireless phone system, UMTS provides service in the 2GHz band and offers global roaming and personalized features; designed as an evolutionary system for GSM network operators, multimedia data rates offered by UMTS are: vehicular - 144 kbit/s; pedestrian 384 kbit/s; in-building 2Mb/s.
Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is one of the third-generation (3 G) mobile phone technologies. The currently most common form uses W-CDMA as the underlying air interface, is standardized by the 3 GPP, and is the European answer to the ITU IMT-2000 requirements for 3 G cellular radio systems.
