History and Development of Mobile Technology

History and Development of erratic Technology nimble TechnologyAbstractThe following report go offs an in-depth analysis of liquid applied science over the years. alert phones enables communication of voice, images, text and video. The important fact is that these could be sh bed with anyone in any corner of the world at the demand of the user. Communication is no long-life the only improvement smooth engine room offers. It offers a wide range of service such(prenominal) as vex to the serviceman Wide entanglement, view boob tube and movies, interact with GPS, play games and read and respond to barcode and augmented reality messages. To fully comprehend the topic mobile technology the history of it plays a major role. From the skilful perspective, the history of mobile technologies originated with the limited use of radio frequencies where the ability to establish simultaneous two-way communication (full duplex) was considered a technological feat. From the social perspe ctive, mobile technologies began as a rare device used by limited personnel who needed to communicate to others in real time emergencies. From the user perspective, the history of mobile technologies began with the use of two way radios and evolved to the current state of prolific smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices. Popularity of the technology sky rocketed with the invention of smart phones. Today there are more people using mobile phones that a personal computer. The future of the mobile technology unravels in front of our very eyes each head hour.IntroductionThe Latin term mobile means ability to move or portable. Therefore mobile technology means, technology that is portable. nimble devices enables access to services like (Naismith et al., 200436).Wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi)Bluetooththird generation (3G), fourth generation (4G), global system for mobile communications (GSM) and general packet radio service (GPRS) data servicesdial-up services data networking service s using modems and telephone linesvirtual private networks secure access to a private networkMobile technology has gone a long journey from a simple two way pager to a device that fits in your pocket which gutter be used as a substitute for a computer (Naismith et al., 200436).1.1 History1G2G3G4GYearEarly 80s199120012010StandardsAMPS, NMT,TACSD-AMPS,GSM/GPRS, cdma OneCDMA2000/ EV-DO, WCDMA/HSPA+,TD-SCDMALTE.

Various devices which use mobile technologylaptop and netbook computerstablet devicespalmtop computers or PDAsMobile phones and smart phones (Quinn, 201118).3. The popularity of mobile devicesAccording to a study done by the US consumers use mobile technology for the followingCallSMSMobile WebAppsSocial networking ( Quinn, 201118).The quantity of individuals who utilize portable advances has developed such a great amount in the previous decade that there are concisely a greater number of individuals utilizing mobile innovations than there are individuals utilizing PCs all through the world there are an incredible number of cell phones in current usage. These incorporate cell phones, PDAs, MP3 players, game devices, handhelds, tablets and laptops (Nordin et al., 2010132).The astonishing fame of cell phones is sh avow by the way that by April 2012 more than 60 million iPads had been sold According to the CIA World Fact Book (South Africa Communications, 2012).Worldwide sales of Smartphones increased 24 percent to 172.4 million units in 2009 according to Gartner, Inc. Popularity continues to grow because it provides services like emergency notification systems, node service, customer payments, inventory management, employee dispatching, travel directions and non-profit fundraising. For an exam ple, When the Red Cross recently used Mobile to raise funds for Haiti almost $5 million was raised in less than 48 hours- all via Mobile (Valk, Rashid Elder, 2010).4. Mobile devices and interactivityThere are four sorts of intelligence up close and personal intuitiveness, PC intervened intelligence, human-PC intelligence, and synchronous assemblage intelligence. Intuitiveness helps understudies to create ideas and place them in their right setting. This thusly helps understudies to build up their very own intellectual structures. Intelligence likewise give understudies chances to make their own learning condition. This, thus, has a noteworthy effect on their learning since it brings about more dynamic learning and gives valuable input to the address (vant Hooft, Brown-Martin Swan, 2008).5.Advantages and disadvantages Advantages Mobile computing can improve the customer servicePowerful solutions can link directly.Supports for more flexible working practices by providing customer friendly services (Wagner, 200544).Disadvantages appeal required to set up the equipments and training is highCyber security system is needed to ensure the safety of imported data from getting exposed to unlicenced people via mobile devices (Wagner, 200544).6.Ongoing Research on mobile technologyM2M networking for IoT-based Intelligent Environments efforts within this context focus on the interconnection of large numbers of such heterogeneous smart objects, enabling the communication provision for applications spanning from Intelligent Transportation Systems to Intelligent Building Management. This is performed through the usage of cognitive radio inspired M2M communications(Quinn, 201118).real time Monitoring of Available BandwidthOptimization Concepts for Capacity Analysis of Wireless Communications The research develops novel optimization concepts, models, and mathematical programming algorithms for capacity analysis problems in wireless networks. Solving these problems gener ate insights and understanding going beyond the state-of-the-art of performance analysis of wireless communications (Quinn, 201118).Generating Road Traffic Information from cellular Networks(Quinn, 201118)7. Future AnalysisFuture of the technology could go from faster transfer speeds to the ability to communicate a relative who lives in a newly set up planet. Some recent expected upgrades include- Flexible mobile devices, wearable technology, and mobile wallets completely replacing notes and coins, 5G networks and devices which are capable of interpreting ones thoughts.It is not strange to look to that one day when a new born is born the first thing the doctors would do go away be implementing a mobile device so small into their bodies enabling communication and access to learning in ways which we cannot imagine (Wagner, 200544).Electro vibration technology will change the mobile touchscreen experience dramatically. You will be able to feel different kinds of texture. This advan cement can also lead to socially beneficial trends. For instance, blind people can use it for Braille, and access smartphones like everybody else.Running out of battery power is one of the most persistent and frequent complaints of most smartphone users. The availability of the ultra-rapid charger that comes with an advanced battery technology that will allow you to charge your phone completely in just 30 seconds (vant Hooft, Brown-Martin Swan, 2008).8. ConclusionAs stated in the report above mobile technology has evolved from where it was first invented, up to date. It will obliviously continue to expand the horizons and touch human lives. Mobile technology which was foreign to many has now become an necessary part in life. It will further help people to break barriers and explore the world and quite possibly the world beyond our world.Mobile technology has its advantages and disadvantages towards the society. It is worth noting that sufficient precautions should be placed in ord er to manage the misuse of the technology. This could be done through proper education and guidance in regard to this technology. Proper practice should always be promoted (Naismith et al., 200436).Encouragement on further research to develop the technology should be promoted. Universities and individuals interested in that bailiwick should have easier ways to access funds for their researches.9.ReferencesNAISMITH, L., LONSDALE, P., VAVOULA, G. SHARPLES, M. 2004.
