Packet radio. Form of amateur radio data communications using the AX25 protocol. Terminal Node Controller 2400 baud packet radio modem. In digital radio, packet radio is the application of packet switching techniques to digital radio communications. Packet radio uses a packet switching protocol as opposed to circuit switching or message ...
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), also called 2.5G, [a] is a mobile data standard on the 2G cellular communication network's global system for mobile communications (GSM). [1] Networks and mobile devices with GPRS started to roll out around the year 2001. [2] At the time of introduction it offered for the first time [b] seamless mobile data ...
The GPRS core network is the central part of the general packet radio service (GPRS) which allows 2G, 3G and WCDMA mobile networks to transmit Internet Protocol (IP) packets to external networks such as the Internet. The GPRS system is an integrated part of the GSM network switching subsystem. The network provides mobility management, session ...
ALOHAnet, also known as the ALOHA System, [1][2][3] or simply ALOHA, was a pioneering computer networking system developed at the University of Hawaii. ALOHAnet became operational in June 1971, providing the first public demonstration of a wireless packet data network. [4][5] The ALOHAnet used a new method of medium access, called ALOHA random ...
PRNET. The Packet Radio Network (PRNET) was a set of early, experimental mobile ad hoc networks whose technologies evolved over time. It was funded by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). Major participants in the project included BBN Technologies, Hazeltine Corporation, Rockwell International 's Collins division, and SRI International.
A trunked radio system is a two-way radio system that uses a control channel to automatically assign frequency channels to groups of user radios. In a traditional half-duplex land mobile radio system a group of users (a talkgroup ) with mobile and portable two-way radios communicate over a single shared radio channel, with one user at a time ...
2.5G denotes 2G-systems that have implemented a packet-switched domain in addition to the circuit-switched domain. It does not necessarily provide faster service because bundling of timeslots is used for circuit-switched data services as well. Also called General Packet Radio Service or GPRS
Coaxial cavity RF filter at 2 meter repeater. An amateur radio repeater is an electronic device that receives a weak or low-level amateur radio signal and retransmits it at a higher level or higher power, so that the signal can cover longer distances without degradation. Many repeaters are located on hilltops or on tall buildings as the higher ...
