After the successful global introduction during the past decade of the second generation (2G) digital
mobile communications systems, it seems that the third generation (3G) Universal Mobile Communication

way the service differentiation and the possibility of adapting the resource consumption to the specific
service requirements, will open the door for the provision of advanced wireless services to the mass
market.
