Data services on PCN

Personal communication networks (PCNs) are already operating in the UK and a few other countries, and new PCNs are planned for commencement of service during the next two or three years in several countries around the world. These networks operate according to the DCS-1800 standard developed by ETSI members. This paper provides a brief overview of the data services which can be supported by PCNs, and goes into a more detailed description of the operation and applications for the data messaging services known as Short Message Service and Cell Broadcast Service
