3GPP2 Insights

What is 3GPP2?

3GPP2 (3rd Generation Partnership Project 2) is a standardization body that developed specifications for CDMA2000, a 3G mobile communication standard. It's primarily known for its contributions to technologies like CDMA2000 1xRTT, CDMA2000 1xEV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized), and other related standards. 3GPP2 focused on technologies prevalent in North America and parts of Asia. CDMA2000 provided increased data speeds compared to 2G technologies and was used for mobile broadband access, voice calls, and text messaging.
