Abstract:
GPRS, EDGE, 3G and HSDPA are wireless data services that are deployed by Mobile operators to provide higher data rate. This paper provides a set of measurements that are used to evaluate, from user perspective, these types of data services in the State of Kuwait. The Measurements are taken in different areas of Kuwait. Measurements show that HSDPA is the best wireless data connection offered by the mobile operators in the state of Kuwait. The measurements are based on measuring the Quality of Service (QoS) experienced by one mobile user running applications such as FTP and WWW on laptops connected to GPRS, EDGE, 3G, HSDPA networks.
