what is GPS & GPRS?What is diff. among them?..

Answer / nayeem

General Packet Radio Service, a standard for wireless
communications which runs at speeds up to 115 kilobits per
second, compared with current GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communications) systems' 9.6 kilobits.

GPRS, which supports a wide range of bandwidths, is an
efficient use of limited bandwidth and is particularly
suited for sending and receiving small bursts of data, such
as e-mail and Web browsing, as well as large volumes of data.


the Global Positioning System (GPS) is a U.S. space-based
radionavigation system that provides reliable positioning,
navigation, and timing services to civilian users on a
continuous worldwide basis -- freely available to all. For
anyone with a GPS receiver, the system will provide location
and time. GPS provides accurate location and time
information for an unlimited number of people in all
weather, day and night, anywhere in the world

Answer / hariteja jyosyula

GPS is used to track and locate a place or a person it
stands for Global Positioning System

GPRS is used to provide specific internet sites(we cannot
browse all the sites which are available in internet through
gprs every opeartor provide only specific sites) facility to
user by cell operators it stands for General Packet Radio
Service
