“…Later, it evolved into 2.5 G standards with the introduction of packet data transmission technology (GPRS) and higher data rates via higher order modulation schemes (EDGE). Together they are now referred to as GERAN, for GSM/EDGE based Radio Access Network [2]. Since the creation of the first truly global mobile telephony system -GSM in 1992, mobile communications have rapidly become an indispensable icon of our times.…”

In this paper, we discuss the evolution of the mobile communication systems from GSM to LTE (2G to 4G) and the trends in the mobile communication industry. The Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) is a well established cellular system targeted here due to its engineering success and the large number of users currently using the services. The flexibility of wireless networks over voice and data transmission makes it one of the most popular modes of communication. Evolution to next generation services depends on an addition of new services and new features to the existing networks or even an integration of different communication technologies. With the invention of the devices such as tablets and smart phones the need to improve the data transmission rates and transmission efficiency has increased to higher than ever before. In this paper, we focus at some of the important issues pertaining to the evolution of mobile communication networks and predict the future of the networks based on the analysis of the cellular market in India.Since GSM networks accounts for more than 75% of the world wide cellular network, only the evolution of GSM network has been discussed in this paper.
