Developed in the 1980s, GSM was first deployed in seven European countries in 1992. portfolio into the 450 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. frequency band, supplementing its radio access offering. GSM 450 enables cost-efficient GSM mobile coverage in markets that have not already been covered. The GSM 450 solution supports full global GSM roaming The ability to use a communications device such as a cellphone or PDA and be able to move from one cell or access point to another without losing the connection. . By expanding the portfolio with GSM 450, mobile access will be available for new markets and operators. Ericsson GSM 450 will particularly help to bring mobile services to remote areas previously considered not feasible to cover. Better coverage with lower operating costs operating costs npl → gastos mpl operacionales is one result of the new technology. Supplementing fixed line networks is also an advantage in rural areas. GSM 450 will support global roaming and have all the functionality and features that are offered in other frequency bands for GSM. GSM 450 offers advanced data solutions with EDGE and GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) The first high-speed digital data service provided by cellular carriers that used the GSM technology. GPRS added a packet-switched channel to GSM, which uses dedicated, circuit-switched channels for voice conversations. for high-bit-rate applications. Ulf Ewaldsson, Vice President and head of GSM solutions at Ericsson, says: "We believe that GSM will be the leading access technology supporting mass-market services for a long time to come. GSM 450 is the next logical step in providing service to emerging growth markets." To enhance capacity and coverage potential in the future, 450 can be combined with current frequency bands, even in the same geographical area. This means that the operator can combine the coverage characteristics of 450 MHz with high-capacity solutions provided by the current frequencies. All generally supported features in GSM will also be supported in the GSM 450 band. Infrastructure can be shared between all supported GSM bands. Ericsson, together with major handset vendors, is driving the 450 solutions to enable product launch during 2006, depending on market demand.
