PACKET SWITCHING

GSM — Packet Switching
Information on Packet Switching
The method of packet switching provides both the response of circuit switching and the efficient link utilisation of message switching by imposing a maximum length on the transmitted units by splitting all messages into packets. Long messages are therefore prevented from blocking links and a system of time division multiplexing is forced onto the network.
