GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) is a standard developed to describe protocols for second-generation (2G) digital cellular networks used by mobile phones.
It became the default global standard for mobile communications, ensuring interoperability of mobile devices across different regions.
GSM technology operates in various frequency bands, primarily 900/1800 MHz, and utilizes time division multiple access (TDMA) to divide each frequency channel into time slots.
This allows multiple users to share the same bandwidth efficiently. GSM supports voice calls, SMS, and limited data services, forming the backbone of modern mobile communication systems.
