The ITU (International Telecommunications Union) was founded in the 1970s, when it decided to develop a global communications system for both mobile and fixed devices. However, it took quite a long time to develop concrete assumptions &#8211; the general concept was not presented until 1992, and the model of the network underlying UMTS services was presented six years later. Initial delays were primarily related to the inability to simultaneously roll out the standard in all parts of the world due to weaker infrastructure development in some regions, causing telecommunications companies to prioritize GSM technology.<\/p>\n<p>The first publicly available UMTS networks appeared in 2001-2002. Japanese operator NTT DoCoMo is considered the pioneer in this regard &#8211; but it is worth noting that the company used its own FOMA design, which was compatible with UMTS. A year later, the first network using the UMTS standard was launched in Europe, more specifically in Austria. In Poland, the technology has been available since 2004, when Plus introduced 3G UMTS connectivity. For a long time, this standard was the foundation of most mobile networks around the world &#8211; until the advent of 4G technology in 2009.<\/p>\n<h3>Is UMTS still in use?<\/h3>\n<p>Although currently UMTS technology is still available, most Polish mobile operators are already in the process of phasing out 3G networks. This is primarily due to the fact that subscribers are already overwhelmingly using 4G or 5G technology, making it no longer cost-effective to maintain the older standard. The exact plan depends on the operator. T-Mobile and Play are completing the process of shutting down their 3G networks in 2023, while Orange plans to reach this goal in 2025 and Plus two years later.<\/p>\n<h3>What will happen to devices using UMTS when the 3G network is shut down?<\/h3>\n<p>It is worth noting that UMTS-enabled equipment overwhelmingly also supports second-generation mobile telephony, or GSM technology. Given the fairly widespread use of 2G in industry, robotics and other applications, the planned shutdown of 2G networks will take place several years later than for 3G. This means that UMTS\/GSM-enabled devices will still retain the ability to communicate &#8211; but it will be using 2G technology.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57216cc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"57216cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">UMTS vs GSM - comparison of standards<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e0dbe68 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e0dbe68\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>The UMTS standard<\/strong> was developed as a more powerful alternative to GSM networks. The most important difference is greater data capabilities &#8211; UMTS allows not only voice calls, but also Internet service. Transfer speeds have also increased significantly: while in <strong>GSM<\/strong> the upper limit is a very modest<strong> 384 kbps<\/strong>, the maximum value for <strong>UMTS<\/strong> is already<strong>14.4 Mbps<\/strong>. Added to this is the increase in immunity to interference, achieved by using <strong>CDMA<\/strong> (spread spectrum) technology. With CDMA, each user using a particular channel receives a specific part of the transmission, allowing precise identification of the transmitted data. The higher bandwidth on UMTS networks means that, unlike GSM solutions, they can also be used for video calls or TV broadcasts.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-39ad772 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"39ad772\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">UMTS in robotics<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4dbc385 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4dbc385\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In addition to phone calls and data transmission in mobile devices, the UMTS standard is also used in <a href=\"https:\/\/botland.com.pl\/7-roboty-i-mechanika\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><br \/>\n  <strong>robotics<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a> i <a href=\"https:\/\/botland.com.pl\/12-elektronika\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><br \/>\n  <strong>electronics<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a>.
