3G is the third generation of mobile phone standards and technology, superseding 2G, and preceding 4G. It is based on the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) family of standards under the International Mobile Telecommunications programme, IMT-2000.
3G technologies enable network operators to offer users a wider range of more advanced services while achieving greater network capacity through improved spectral efficiency.
Services include wide-area wireless voice telephony, video calls, and broadband wireless data, all in a mobile environment.
Additional features also include HSPA data transmission capabilities able to deliver speeds up to 14.4Mbit/s on the downlink and 5.8Mbit/s on the uplink.
Unlike IEEE 802.11 (common names Wi-Fi or WLAN) networks, 3G networks are wide area cellular telephone networks which evolved to incorporate high-speed internet access and video telephony.
IEEE 802.11 networks are short range, high-bandwidth networks primarily developed for data.

Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Protocols and Protocol Testing
This tutorial explores the history of mobile communications leading to the proposal of UMTS.
The tutorial then explains the architecture of UMTS and the protocols, interfaces, and technologies that go along with it. Finally, this tutorial looks at UMTS measurement and testing where tutorial participants will find real-world situations with practical suggestions for measurement approaches.

FCC Third Generation Wireless Systems
Federal Communications Commission for 3G systems.
3G systems will provide access, by means of one or more radio links, to a wide range of telecommunication services supported by the fixed telecommunication networks and to other services that are specific to mobile users.
A range of mobile terminal types will be encompassed, linking to terrestrial and/or satellite-based networks, and the terminals may be designed for mobile or fixed use.

Universal Mobile Telecommunications System @ Wikipedia
Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is one of the third-generation (3G) cell phone technologies.
Currently, the most common form of UMTS uses W-CDMA as the underlying air interface.
It is standardized by the 3GPP, and is the European answer to the ITU IMT-2000 requirements for 3G cellular radio systems.
To differentiate UMTS from competing network technologies, UMTS is sometimes marketed as 3GSM, emphasizing the combination...
