The Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is a 3G mobile cellular system for networks based on the GSM standard. [1] Developed and maintained by the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), UMTS is a component of the International Telecommunication Union IMT-2000 standard set and compares with the CDMA2000 standard set for networks based on the competing cdmaOne technology.
Mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) in the United States lease wireless telephone and data service from the four major cellular carriers in the country—AT&T Mobility, Boost Mobile, T-Mobile US, and Verizon—and offer various levels of free and/or paid talk, text and data services to their customers.
Technologies like AMPS, TDMA, iDEN and CDMA 1x/EV-DO were used in the past by some of those networks and have been phased out in favor of newer systems. On 20 April 2022, Oi ’s mobile network operations were sold to the country's three largest carriers, Vivo , Claro and TIM . [ 36 ]
In 3G, the most prevalent technology was UMTS with CDMA-2000 in close contention. All radio access technologies have to solve the same problems: to divide the finite RF spectrum among multiple users as efficiently as possible. GSM uses TDMA and FDMA for user and cell separation. UMTS, IS-95 and CDMA-2000 use CDMA. WiMAX and LTE use OFDM.
CDMA2000 (also known as C2K or IMT Multi‑Carrier (IMT‑MC)) is a family of 3G [1] mobile technology standards for sending voice, data, and signaling data between mobile phones and cell sites. It is developed by 3GPP2 as a backwards-compatible successor to second-generation cdmaOne (IS-95) set of standards and used especially in North America ...
