Abstract :
During the 1970s and 1980s, many European countries introduced mobile communication systems. Most of these are totally incompatible, and CEPT therefore decided in 1982 to create a working group, GSM (Groupe Special Mobile), to study the possibility of a pan-European system. The author describes the course and present status of this work
